Hydro Herb Coriander Hydro Herb Kit
Sorry, this product is not currently available from Sprouts of Bristol but we have found some alternatives for you.
Aroids have taken the world by storm, perhaps the most sought after and adored family of plants- but they do come from humble beginnings! Monstera and philodendron have been staples in green houses for many decades and the mix that they adore can be applied to almost every species in the blend. With thick roots, impressively beautiful foliage that is widely variable; we made sure to provide the very best peat free substrate for them. Using a blend of: coco coir, perlite, bark, coarse pumice, worm castings, zeolite, activated charcoal. This mix is beloved, tried and tested by thousands of aroid keepers, with their usually hemiepiphytic habit in mind, we are eager to provide even your most expensive and rare aroids with a seamless, perfectly made blend. The heavy presence of bark and pumice mean that the air craving roots will never go without. The addition of activated charcoal helps fend off any risk of rot from the occasional overwatering and keeps that risk away during the winter months when watering is pulled back. Honestly, there’s not much more to say other than have fun and get your hands dirty. Ideal for: monstera, philodendron, pothos and more! This is blend combines the perfect levels of chunky aeration with medium moisture retention. Our coarse elements of bark, zeolite, pumice and perlite mean there are plenty of air chambers in the mix perfectly suited to the medium/thick roots of monstera and philodendron. As tropical plants they do prefer medium moisture retention in our homes, meaning the mix will stay lightly moist for about a little over a week, and will slowly dry off to allow your plant time to get used to a short dry period before re-watering. The one important rule for a monstera and philodendron soil is that they want a chunky mix. A good soil for these plants provides plenty of aggregate and bark for roots to crawl around as they grow. The mixture should retain moisture evenly through the pot and dry out steadily in a medium period of time (1.5 - 2 weeks) whilst also being very well draining. These plants like moisture but not muddy soil. The aggregates in our blend help create a loose mix which avoids dense soil conditions which leads to root rot. Monstera and philodendron also do not mind being left in dry substrates for medium amounts of time (1 - 1.5 weeks in bone dry soil). However if left for too long in dry soil their roots can wilt and become non-functional, increasing risk of root rot after the next watering. As monstera and philodendron are very susceptible to root rot, we have provided multiple levels of protection against accidentally overwatering. As with all of our premium mixes a population of positive bacteria, mycelium and microfauna is present in the substrate to create the potted ecosystem which keeps your plant healthy! Enough nutrients for the first 2 months of growth is also in every bag along with our specialist nutrient storage component, zeolite.
