I have all ready planted my garden. Can I just put it directly around my plants? If so, how much do you recommend to put.

I would recomend you use Soil Reef Gardners Blend for this, and yes, you would work it into the root zone around your plants, careful not to damage their roots.

You would need other substrate in addition to this as it is not a Stand alone substrate. Use about 1/4 of this bag and the rest as a custom mix. Completely depends on your scaping though, as well as the root base demands of your plants. Look up a few aqu scaping forums for more details

I put it within 8-12 inches. But, it depends on the type of plant and how many plants.

Do I put the potting soil directly into the pot? I am repotting a palm plant.

Wouldn't be a bad idea although I lined mine with landscape fabric (bottom and up the sides) and put 2" of pea pebbles (not gravel) in the bottom before adding soil. It's gorgeous and works for me!

I really don't know, but I planted too late (1 bag) and had so much come up.........too late! I plan to put it down early this year and will need 3 bags+ for the area to cover. It was easy to sprinkle and water,......... next time I will cover the area with something so the birds don't eat the seeds!

Sounds like a nice idea and very pretty too. I hate to say it but the only answer I have for you is "maybe" right now. It's not something you can judge unless you've tried to do it using precisely the size hook you will purchase (supposing their different heights might have different thicknesses of wrought iron and different lengths of the two ends that get stuck into the ground and certainly different weights on the entire hook pieces themselves because of all that.) So I'd buy 1 of everything needed to make up one completed set-up. Next I'd weigh up precisely the specific individual weights of your jar/least amt. of water necessary/flowers/hook, then tally the total weight involved. I'd then try to implant it into the particular kind of dirt/soil at the locations you'll be pushing the hook into on the wedding day. Also try it in the different locations around that property to test that the weightn will be secire in those particular different types of soil you can find on one property. For instance, if there was an area that had a rock garden and an area full of trees with a lot of roots spread through the ground, this test might show me that I'd have to change my plan to shape the overal arrangement layout on the ground into an oval shape rather than a circle of arrangements. I'd even try it in wet ground on the morning after a rainfall on a previous night. Then I'd have no surprises and I'd have a plan A + B to work with on wedding day, IF all else looks like it would work out in the first place.

I used two bags of 2 cu ft sized garden soil which filled the bed 3/4, leaving an inch or two of siding exposed. Another reviewer recommended 3 bags. I'm only starting flower seeds so I think it depends on what you will grow and how big the roots will be.

Just sprinkle a little bit on the roots when transplanting, or in the hole where you are going to put it. The main thing is just to make sure it touches the roots of the seedlings.

Hi, Jessica! Congratulations on your upcoming wedding! I purchased these succulents (and more from Jimz) for an annual garden market fundraiser. We planted groups of 3 succulents in 4 inch terra cotta pots and top-dressed the soil with decorative pebbles from Walmart. If you are using the plants individually, you could use a 2 inch pot. You'll need a cactus/palm/succulent soil mixture for transplanting, regular potting soil is too dense. Good luck and Happy Wedding! Gail

I don't know about that. Mine is above ground and I put plants all around it to disguise. Works great!

I couldn't tell you what kind of plant to use on wall planter. Because I never got to hang mine up. They came to me broke and I didn't reorder them again. I bought something else. But I was just going to use artificial greenery in them. Hope that helps you decide, sorry I couldn't help more.

When it comes in you will need to put it together. Easy enough by just sliding pieces into place. Then you can add your soil and seeds as you wish. This is a very simple way to start gardening. Good Luck!

I depends on where you put it & if any birds, bugs, etc., are attracted to whatever you are growing. Please contact your local gardening sore or agricultural extension & pose further questions to the professionals.

Didn't work for me in the veg garden. I resorted to using a product called Rabit Scram. It's granuals that you sprinkle around the area you want to protect.

I had landscapers put mine together and fill with topsoil because I have disabilities. They said they didn't recommend it on cement unless you stapled very heavy weight plastic to the inside to prevent soil loss and you'd have to make sure you got plastic that wouldn't have chemicals in it that could leech into your plants. I put mine in the yard, on the grass, and had good luck with them and I have 6 beds. Make sure you get good quality top soil -- I had a yard of it delivered from a local supplier and it was great, black dirt with no stones or stems in it. My landscaper said it was about the best dirt he'd seen and it was under $75 delivered. I hope this helps you decide how you will proceed.

Soak it in some water and lay it out in the sun for a while. When water is put into it it will swell up with no problem. I put mine around tomatoe plants and that's what I do. Also I've had problems with sand plugging it, so this year I'm going to put some grass mulch down before putting it in my garden.
