Instructions and Safety Requirements

Safety Tip 1.
Our friendly garden guide, Hal, says,

 "Please take care when lifting the full bag, and if in doubt, cut the bag and move some the contents to a smaller container for further use. Gardening is for fun and good health. We want to see you enjoy the work without causing injury."

For effective results:
Be sure to thoroughly water your plants PRIOR to re-potting and transplanting. This will greatly reduce the chance of the root-ball drying out during the procedure.

Choose the container size required and fill to approximately one third Seagreens Premium Potting Mix. Gently vibrate to settle the mixture. Add more if necessary. Position the root-ball/s as required in the pot and backfill with the potting mixture until the base of the plant stem is level with the lip of the container. Press down firmly on the mixture and water immediately.

Keep potting mix moist but not wet. Fertilize regularly with seaweed solution.

Safety Tip 2.
As with all Composts, Potting Mixes and other organic gardening materials, they may contain hazardous micro-organisms. So, please protect yourself from discomfort and possible harm by exercising caution when handling these products.

Our Gardening Guide, Hal, says,

 "Please wear a mask to protect yourself from dust and bugs in the mix, oh, and always read the warnings and instructions on the Seagreens Premium Organic Potting Mix bag"
