AQUAFEED:
THE PLANT SAVER IN A BAG
IT BEATS THE DROUGHT DAY IN AND DAY OUT!
Aquafeed has a extremely wide range of applications:
-
A sachet can be applied to the bottom of planting holes for new plants and shrubs
-
When potting on into 4"/5" pots place a sachet near the bottom of the pot before filling with soil and planting
-
A sachet can be planted in (or as near as possible without damaging) the root system of existing garden or houseplants
-
Hanging baskets can also be sustained for much longer periods on a given amount of water compared with just using a compost-based medium. When preparing the hanging basket place two sachets near the bottom of the basket and plant up as usual
-
When preparing patio planters place 1, 2 or 3 sachets (depending on the size of planter) near the bottom and plant as normal
-
Window boxes, depending on their size will take 2 or 3 sachets near the bottom and then plant up as normal
-
With containers that are already planted up sachets can be inserted as close as possible to the root system
