• Ideal for seeds and cuttings, this is a mixture of organic coir, vermiculite and Fertile Fibre nutrients. The coir – made from coconut husk – is great at encouraging germination and fast rooting. The small specks of white and gold vermiculite help control watering. So there’s no need to worry about over-watering. If this happens, the vermiculite will soak up the excess. It will then slowly release the water as the compost dries out.
• Tips on using seed compost You can use the compost straight from the bag. 1. Place it in seed tray or pot. Be very careful not to over compact – simply tapping the container on a hard surface is enough. 2. Place seeds on top. 3. Cover with the same depth of compost as thickness of seed. So if seed is 1 mm thick, cover with 1 mm of compost.
• Don’t over-water. Coir has excellent water holding capacities so this can be a problem. We recommend watering little and often. The compost may seem dry on top but will still be wet underneath, so it’s always worth double checking before watering.
