Description

Now there is no need to lug 60L sacks of compost home from the Garden Centre when a simple 5kg block of GrowLite will do the job.

Simply break off a small amount or place the 5kg coir block in a large tub, wheelbarrow, tough plastic sack/bin bag, add water and let it soak. Within an hour it will have soaked up the water and grown to approx 6 times its volume. Break it up as it expands. Add more water if necessary so that it all gets evenly moistened (it will need approx 18L in total). When finished, it should be wet but springy, like a wrung-out sponge.

Once hydrated, Growlite can be used in seed trays, pots, planters and hanging baskets. After 2-3 months use your choice of plant food or slow release fertiliser to sustain plants for up to 6 months. Do not over-water! The surface of containers will dry out but Growlite holds water well at root level.

Tried and tested by commercial growers.
