Thompson And Morgan Acer Grow Kit

Product Description

Acers are slow-growing trees but they will provide years of colour & interest whether grown as a Bonsai or as a full-sized tree.

Sowing:

• When you're ready to sow your seeds place one of the compost discs in a small bowl with about 1cm of tepid water in the bottom. As the disc soaks up the water it will start to exp&.
• Keep adding water little by little taking care not to let the compost become completely waterlogged. There's no need to flip the soaking disc over; it will take water up to the top over time.
• Once the disc has expanded to about 4.5-5cm high & is quite moist gently crumble the compost into the biodegradable pots provided.
• Once you get then hang of soaking the discs you can do several at once until the pots are filled.
• Now sow the seeds in the pots at a depth of 6mm (1/4 in). Keep the compost moist but be careful not to over water.
• When it comes to transplanting or potting on your acer tree you can plant the whole pot into the larger container without disturbing its roots.

  Growing:

  Sow seeds in the pots provided at any time of year. After sowing seal the pots in a polythene bag to ensure a humid atmosphere & keep at a temperature of 20-25
