Planting in containers

• top up the pot with substrate to a height of 1.5 cm below its rim.
• Carefully tamp the substrate, taking care not to damage the roots.

Planting in the ground

• Place the plant in the hole and gently cover with substrate.
• Tamp the substrate around the newly planted plant, then water abundantly.

Recommendations

• Do not use as an admixture to previously used substrate.
