    Garden soil mix application FAQs

    When should I use Natural Garden Soil Mix?

    Add soil and potting mix to your plantings as needed throughout the growing season. The amount needed will vary depending on the type of planter.

    How do I use this with other Sunday products? Why should I apply in this order?

    Treat weeds first, then prepare new soil/potting mix before planting and applying your Sunday garden fertilizer. Apply pest control last. Why? This prevents your feeding weeds and spraying new plants, ensures soil/potting mix is mixed in with fertilizer for optimal plant growth, and prevents pest control from being washed off when watering in your new plants.

    What if I apply out of order?

    You can add in potting mix or soil at any point in the season; the efficacy of the product will not be hindered if you apply out of order.
