Hadley multi-purpose compost contains added John Innes which provides plants with extra nourishment to encourage stronger plant development, increased flowering and longer plant life.

This expertly designed formula prevents plants from under or overfeeding by retaining nutrients and moisture after watering and slowly releasing when needed.

Improves compost structure by facilitating vital air movement around the roots for stronger healthier plant life.

We recommend supplementing growing plants with feed after 5 weeks.

Potting Plants

• Water plants well and allow to drain before removing from pot and planting into a new container, firm compost gently around the roots.
• Keep plants well watered.

Seed Sowing & Pricking Out

• Once seedlings have grown large enough to handle without breakage, grab by the leaves and tease out roots.
• Plant seedlings into new container ensuring adequate space between them for growth.
• Keep seedlings well watered.

Taking Cuttings

• Fill a seed tray with compost and water sparingly.
• Dip the end of the cutting into hormone rooting powder.
• Make a hole in the compost, add cutting and firm compost gently around it.
• Place seed tray away from direct sunlight and cover with a polythene bag to prevent drying.

Hanging basket
