INITIAL PLANT CARE - What to do with your new plants
When you receive your plants, open the box, take the plants out, and stand them upright.
Thoroughly water your plants as soon as you can. When watering for the first time, ensure you water right into the pot so that the compost is well saturated. Leave them to drain before planting.
The plants that you receive are young and actively growing. Plant as soon as possible to maximise full growth potential.
If you can't plant them out straight away, you can pot them on into larger pots to give them more space to grow into. Plants in tubestock pots will need regular watering, perhaps daily in warm weather.
Once planted in the garden, or into larger pots, keep your new tubestock plants well watered and out of extreme weather conditions, especially during summer heat and winter frost.
If you can, provide them with shade so they are not in full sun, or a cloche to protect from frost, until they establish.
Tubestocks are like babies - they need regular small feeds until they are big enough to fend for themselves. So daily monitoring is a good idea in hot weather or warm sunny rooms.
If the plants are potted on or planted out and well watered then, they have more access to water. So checking on them every few days should be sufficient.
REMOVING PLANT FROM TUBE
When you are ready for planting, remove the plant from its pot using the following steps:

provides nutrients as the plant makes roots.
