Growing plants in pots

1. Plant in a pot using a good quality potting soil and mix in water retention granules that assist with moisture retention in the soil

2. Water needs to drain out of the pot and plants should not stand in water.

3. Take care not to over water and only water when required - using the 5cm finger test to feel if the soil is dry.

4. Feed plants with every watering using a soluble plant food. 5. Ensure the plants are placed in a position receiving sufficient natural light.
