What can Clover Multi Purpose Compost be used for?
Clover Multi Purpose Compost is designed to cover many of the most common growing jobs around the garden. Typical applications include:
- Seed sowing
- Raising seedlings
- Potting and potting-on
- Seasonal bedding plants
- Pots and patio containers
- Planters and window boxes
- Hanging baskets
- Suitable flowers and vegetables
- General container gardening
Plants with specialist requirements may benefit from a dedicated growing medium. Acid-loving plants, for example, are better suited to an ericaceous compost formulated specifically for their preferred root-zone conditions.
Seed sowing & young plants
Clover Multi Purpose Compost can be used for sowing many common flower and vegetable seeds. Fill clean trays or pots with fresh compost and gently level the surface before sowing according to the requirements of the individual variety.
Water carefully after sowing to avoid displacing small seeds. Once seedlings are sufficiently developed to handle, they can be transplanted into suitable pots and grown on in fresh compost.
Different plant species have different germination requirements, so temperature, moisture, light and sowing depth should always be matched to the seed being grown.
Potting & potting-on
Multi-purpose compost is particularly useful when young plants have outgrown their existing containers or established plants need moving into larger pots.
Select a container with appropriate drainage and enough additional space for future root development. Add fresh Clover Multi Purpose Compost, position the plant at the correct depth and carefully fill around the root ball.
Gently firm the compost without heavily compacting it, then water thoroughly and allow excess moisture to drain.
Built-in wetting agent for improved water management
Clover Multi Purpose Compost contains a wetting agent to help water penetrate the growing medium and distribute more effectively through the root zone.
This is particularly useful when compost begins to dry, as very dry growing media can sometimes become more difficult to re-wet evenly.
Watering frequency should still be adjusted according to plant size, container volume, temperature and weather conditions. Avoid maintaining the compost in a permanently saturated condition, as healthy roots require both moisture and air.
Nutrient enriched for healthy plant establishment
Clover Multi Purpose Compost contains essential nutrients to support plants as they establish and begin active growth.
The nutrients contained within any compost are gradually consumed by growing plants. For plants remaining in containers for extended periods, supplementary feeding can therefore be introduced when required using an appropriate plant fertiliser.
Feeding requirements vary significantly between plant species, growth stages and seasons, so always follow the instructions supplied with the chosen fertiliser.
Using Clover Multi Purpose Compost in hanging baskets
Clover Multi Purpose Compost can be used for hanging baskets and seasonal container displays, providing a versatile growing medium for many popular flowering plants.
Hanging baskets can dry rapidly because a relatively small volume of compost supports a large amount of plant growth. During warm or windy conditions, check moisture levels frequently and water according to the needs of the plants.
For particularly demanding ornamental displays, Clover also produces specialist Tub & Basket formulations designed specifically around the increased water and nutritional demands of this type of planting.
