Plant Care.
Once your plants have arrived depending on your purchase, we recommend the following.
Seedlings: Can be potted on straight away after delivery. We recommend using a free draining soil mix (See Soil Mix for more details). The Seedlings can be watered in straight away to help them settle in to their new homes. Its best to put them somewhere they wont get full sun, all day, until they have acclimatised to the new conditions. Morning sun, or filtered light is nice and gentle at first to help with them with settling in. It is recommended that you don't re water again until the soil has completely dried out.
Cuttings: We recommend allowing another week of callousing time for Cuttings to fully heal over before planting on top of a free draining soil mix (See Soil Mix for more details). Once the plants are fully calloused they can be planted on top of the soil and staked up to prevent falling over. Once fully calloused and planted they can be watered in to start the stimulation of root development.
Note: Do Not plant the cuttings deep in the soil mix as this may lead to rot.
