TON AQU 10

Organic Aquatic Plants Soil

Tonusol’s Organic Aquatic Plants Soil has been designed specifically for planting and repotting all kinds of aquatic plants: water lilies, water irises, yellow flag irises, Japanese horsetails, tubular plants, aquatic grasses, flowering rushes, reeds... The specific formula of this soil meets these plants’ requirements: they necessitate a wet milieu, preferring an environment near the water or in some cases partially submerged. Soak this soil in water beforehand so that it is compact and sticky before placing it in the pond.

SMALL AQUATIC PLANTS (0 to 20 cm) (0 to 8 inches)

For small plants, prepare them as a root ball enclosed in planting bags made of burlap, openwork canvas, or natural coconut geotextile. Planting bags allow you to plant along the edge when creating a pond. They allow for good plant growth by conserving heat and moisture at the foot of the plant in order to limit watering.

- Remove the plant from its pot and untangle the roots of the root ball.

- Place the root ball in its container.

- Soak this soil in water beforehand so that it is already compact and sticky when placing it in the pond.

- Put some Tonusol’s Organic Aquatic Plants Soil and pack lightly.

- Place the planting bags in the desired location.

 

MEDIUM AQUATIC PLANTS (20 to 40 cm) (8 to 16 inches)

For medium plants, prepare them in pots, preferably ones designed for aquatic environments: jars or openwork plastic baskets that allow gas exchange between the soil in the pot and the water in the pond.

- Avoid putting several plants in the same pot: they are often vigorous and do not like competition.

- Soak the soil well in water to avoid dry particles rising to the surface.

- Make a hole in the dirt at the center of the pot to place the plant. Take the plant out of its container and untangle the roots well so that they develop all inside the pot.

- Position the pot in the pond at the recommended height for that particular plant.

- Add gravel or pebbles to the surface to keep the basket at the bottom.

 

TALL AQUATIC PLANTS (40 to 150 cm) (16 to 60 inches / 5 feet)

For tall plants, place them in the water in wooden or plastic baskets.

- Soak the soil well in water to prevent dry particles from rising to the surface.

- Make a hole in the dirt at the center of the pot to place the plant. Take the plant out of its container and untangle the roots well so that they develop all inside the pot.

- Add gravel or small pebbles to the surface of the basket to keep it at the bottom of the pond.

- Position the basket at the recommended height for that particular plant. Place the pot and wait for the leaves to rise to the surface.
