It takes approximately 10 litres of compost. The compost should
be added to approx one third of the bag, watered to let the compost
settle and plants for the lower holes inserted. Then add more
compost, water and add more plants untill you come to the top
holes in the bag, add compost to the topof bag and insert plants
in remainder of holes do not add plant to top of bag at this
point.Lie bag flat after being planted in greenhouse or similar
for about 2 weeks to let the plants establish, hang the bag up
and insert plants into top of bag.

Do not try to overfill bag with compost as this tends to compact
compost and can also lead to bag splitting. The bag should not
be round but more flat so it hangs flat against wall, trellis,
post etc. The bag can be hung from a suitable nail, screw, bracket
etc. Care should be taken so as not to over-water, as flower
bags tend to retain more moisture than hanging baskets. In the
event of your flower bag drying out just lay it in a tray of
water untill the compost is fully moist. |
