This is the situation
i purchased some Super Soil because its steralized and pest free. This is its makeup:
forest products, including fir bark and rewood, canadian sphagnum peat moss and clean sand.
Guaranteed analysis
Total Nitrogen= .14%
Available Phosphate= .09%
Soluble Potash= .02%
Iron= .25%
Derived from potasium nitrate, triple superphosphate, calcium nitrate, ureaform ferrous sulfate, dried poultry waste, feathermeal, alfalfa meal, kelp meal
Unfortuantely my plants after 4 weeks are only 3 inches tall. SAD.
so i went out and purchased my bag of organic soil called Whitney Farms Life Link.
Aged and processed softwood bark and sawdust, sphagnum peat moss, perlite, pumice, composted animal manuers, bat guano, worm castings, dried poultry waste, blood meal, feather meal, bone meal, sulfate of potash, kelp meal, dolmite lime may be added as a ph adjuster.
I have two plants, one already transplanted in the organic soil. I kept the roots in tact by keeping the old soil around the roots. its been 4 days since i transplanted and there is no change. i have the patience but i wondering what to expect and how long before i see a pick me up in the transplanted sapling.
so im going to transplant the second tonight. should i remove as much of the old soil as possible and if so how to do this without killing the plant? also what, if anything, can i add that will perk up these plants and expedite the growing process? all organic from now so all help and advice will be appreciated.
