In Pots

Cotton Burr Compost : Cotton Burr Compost is a valuable addition to the soils used in container planting, provided there is some soil or sand in the mix.  We do not recommend it in a soil-less mix such as peat or peat-bark mixtures due to its tendency to migrate and layer in the bottom of the container.

NOTE : Back to Nature compost products contain tannins which may stain porous surfaces such as carpeting, concrete, or wood. Some odor may be noticed when first applied, but should disappear within a few days. We DO NOT recommend planting in 100% compost. Always mix at least 2/3 native soil with 1/3 compost.
