Usage


• Best time for repotting: It is recommended to repot in the spring, but it can be done all year round as an intervention.

• Product preparation: The product is mechanically compressed, it is recommended to loosen it before use. The dry soil should be moistened with water.

Repotting into a larger pot:

• Prepare a clean pot with drainage holes larger than the root ball.

• Gently remove the root ball and remove dead roots.

• Pour a layer of drainage, such as expanded clay, into the bottom of the pot.

• Insert the plant to the adequate depth, fill the pot with soil to 2 cm below the edge and slightly compact the soil.

• Do the first, small watering only a few days later.

We recommend starting fertilization 3–4 weeks after repotting.

Practical advice:

• Succulents prefer well-sunny places.

• To avoid stabbing yourself and breaking the thorns, it's a good idea to use kitchen tongs, a thick cloth or rolled-up newspaper when repotting cacti. When repotting, always grab the cactus by the root neck.
