How to Use
Directions for Use
For best results do not mix Yates Speciality Potting Mix Cacti & Succulents with any other material. Use straight from the bag and seal tightly after use to avoid the mix drying out.
- Water the plant thoroughly before repotting and leave to drain.
- Select a pot with drainage holes, one size larger than the current pot.
- Partly fill the new pot with Yates Speciality Potting Mix Cacti & Succulents.
- Gently remove the plant from the existing pot, loosen the soil from around the root ball and remove any dead or damaged roots. Be careful with spiny cacti.
- Place the plant in the new pot, add more of the mix around the plant and gently pat down. Leave a 1-2cm space below the rim for watering.
- Water thoroughly and allow to drain.
