How to Use Happy Frog Potting Soil
New Container Plants
Fill the container with Happy Frog Potting Soil, stopping approximately 1 inch below the upper edge. Position the plant at the proper depth, gently firm the soil around its roots, and water thoroughly.
Houseplants
Use as a complete potting medium when planting or repotting indoor plants. Water thoroughly after planting and allow excess water to drain.
Established Container Gardens
Apply approximately a 3-inch layer around established plants. Carefully work the fresh potting soil into the existing medium without damaging the roots, then water thoroughly.
Potted Trees, Shrubs and Roses
Select a container wider and deeper than the existing root mass. Add enough potting soil to position the plant at the correct height, fill around the roots, and water thoroughly.
For continued nutrition, begin an appropriate fertilizer program during active growth and flowering. Store unused soil in a cool, dry location away from excessive heat and direct sunlight to preserve microbial activity.
