FAQs

How much compost do I need?

The amount of compost needed will depend on the size of your pots, containers, or garden beds. A 50L bag is a good starting point for most small to medium-sized projects.

Can I use this compost for all types of plants?

Yes, YouGarden Professional Compost is suitable for a wide range of plants. However, always check the specific needs of your plants to ensure the best results.

How often should I water my plants?

Water when the top inch of the compost feels dry to the touch. The wetting agent helps with even water distribution, but proper watering is still crucial.

Do I need to add any other fertilizer?

The compost contains a starter fertiliser that will feed your plants for up to six months. After that, you may need to supplement with additional fertiliser, depending on your plants' needs.

How do I store the compost?

Store the compost in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and moisture. Reseal the bag tightly after each use.

Is this compost suitable for vegetables?

Yes, YouGarden Professional Compost is excellent for growing vegetables in pots, containers, or garden beds.

Troubleshooting

Plants are wilting.

Check soil moisture. Water thoroughly if dry, and ensure proper drainage.

Yellowing leaves.

Check for nutrient deficiencies. The compost has a starter fertiliser, but additional feeding may be needed for some plants after six months.

Slow growth.

Ensure proper sunlight, watering, and check for any pests or diseases.
