Know before you buy
No, this mix is pre-enriched with a controlled-release fertilizer that feeds your plants for up to six months. You won't need to supplement with additional plant food during that initial period.
The RESiLIENCE additive is designed to improve your plants' resistance to wilting. It helps them better manage moisture stress, which is particularly useful for containers and hanging baskets that tend to dry out quickly in the sun.
While this mix is specifically engineered for outdoor containers, hanging baskets, and window boxes, it can be used for indoor plants. However, because it is formulated for high moisture retention, ensure your indoor pots have excellent drainage to prevent the soil from staying too wet.
Coconut coir is included to enhance the soil's moisture-holding capacity. It helps the mix retain water more effectively than standard peat-based soils, ensuring your plants stay hydrated between waterings.
This mix is versatile enough for both. It works well for annuals, perennials, and bedding plants, but it is also perfectly safe and effective for growing vegetables in containers.
