-
Check whether repotting is needed
Check root development and compost structure before repotting. Work near the start of active growth where possible.
-
Choose a suitable container
Choose a stable pot with a little space beside the root ball. An oversized container can remain wet around a small root system.
-
Provide free drainage
Keep drainage holes open. Ensure you can empty the outer pot or saucer later.
-
Release the root ball gently
Support the root ball and release it gently from the old pot. Retain healthy roots and avoid pulling leaves or stems.
-
Keep the original planting depth
Choose planting depth for the crop. Keep a lettuce crown clear and never bury a graft union.
-
Fill around the root ball
Add fresh compost beneath and beside the root ball. Close large air pockets gently and leave a watering rim without compacting the medium hard.
-
Water and allow drainage
Check moisture in the old root ball and fresh compost after planting. Moisten as needed and allow excess water to drain.

Follow establishment
The compost contains fertiliser. Its original label gives no fixed number of weeks before supplementary feeding; timing depends on crop, growth and existing nutrients.

Common questions
How much compost do I need?
The root ball already occupies space. Fill the remaining space around it rather than assuming the full pot volume is needed.
Is this peat-free?
Yes. The original label describes the medium as peat-free and lists plant-based raw materials.
When should supplementary feeding begin?
The compost contains fertiliser. Its original label gives no fixed number of weeks before supplementary feeding; timing depends on crop, growth and existing nutrients.
