How to Use Westland Multi-Purpose Compost With John Innes
First, put on a pair of gloves and rework the compost between your hands, so it regains its intended texture. Then you’re all set.
Seedlings/Pricking out
- Pick out seedlings once they are large enough to handle. Hold seedlings by the leaves to avoid damage and tease out root using a dibber or pencil
- Plant seedlings apart to allow for growth. Water regularly until the seeds are ready to be potted on
Potting
- Water plant well and allow to drain before potting. Allow enough space to accommodate the roots
- Remove from pot and plant in container, firming the compost gently around the roots
- Once fully planted, water well
Taking cuttings
- Fill seed tray evenly with compost, firm gently and water
- Make a sloping cut in the stem of the cutting and remove all bottom leaves
- Dip the end of the cutting in a hormone rooting powder to encourage rooting
- Make a hole in the compost with a pencil/dibber
- Place the cutting in the hole and firm compost gently around it
- Cover the tray with polythene or glass to prevent drying out and place in a warm spot, away from direct sunlight until the cuttings have taken
Hanging Baskets
- Line the basket and fill with compost. Plant with trailing plants around the outside and upright plants in the middle
- Water well
