KRONEN® Soil for geraniums
KRONEN® Soil for geraniums, surfinias, balcony and other bedding plants, is a specialized substrate, especially designed for plants with increased nutritional requirements. It is an excellent substrate for all plants grown indoors, on balconies, terraces, flowerbeds, except for acid-loving plants.

Planting in containers:
Pour a small amount of soil into the bottom of the container, place the plant, top up with soil 2 cm below the edge of the pot, slightly compress, and water generously.
Repotting:
Young plants or plants in small containers should be repotted once a year, older plants every 2-3 years. Repot in early spring or after flowering, preferably to a larger container. The root ball should be carefully removed, gently cleaned from dead roots, dried and immersed for about 1 minute in water at room temperature. Place the plant in the container add soil. Water generously the first time.
Fertilization:
To fertilize balcony plants, vegetables and herbs in containers, we recommend using season-acting Balls KRONEN® Fertilizer for balcony and terrace plants. For garden plants and vegetables we recommend KRONEN® Organic-Mineral Fertilizer for vegetables and garden plants.
CAUTION: substrates containing wood fibres and compost should be very carefully fluffed up before use, as during production and transport they become more compacted.
