Watering Tips
The best way to know if your plant is thirsty is to stick your finger about an inch into the soil. If it feels dry, it's time to water. If it's still damp, you can wait a little longer.

- Keep the Goodness Going: For even more spectacular results, start feeding your plants regularly with Miracle-Gro Plant Food 30 days after planting.
Product Safety
Get Your Hands Dirty (with gloves!): We always recommend wearing gardening gloves when you're potting, and it's a great habit to wash your hands when you're all done.
