For planting patio pots, containers and hanging baskets with summer flowering bedding plants and annual vegetables growing outdoors or under glass

Miracle-Gro Moisture Control Compost for pots and containers is enriched with slow release Miracle-Gro Plant Food to feed plants for up to 6 months. As a result it grows plants twice as big* with better blooms and healthier growth.

It contains a special Aquacoir formula and water retaining agent that absorbs twice as much water as ordinary compost** and helps stop your plants drying out. As a result you will need to water 50% less often while your plants continue to draw on the extra moisture stored by this compost.

Potting Up With Miracle-Gro Moisture Control CompostMoisture control compost in a sieve

That’s why Miracle-Gro Moisture Control Compost is especially recommended for planting up patio pots, window boxes, containers and hanging baskets with annual bedding plants and quick growing vegetables such as tomatoes, sweet peppers and herbs. Because of its ability to absorb twice as much moisture this compost is especially recommended for growing plants in a greenhouse or conservatory where drying out of potted plants is a big problem.

Plants will need feeding throughout the growing season to ensure they remain healthy, beautiful and produce better blooms. We recommend feeding with Miracle-Gro All Purpose Soluble Plant Food for continued fantastic results.

*Grows plants twice as big as ordinary garden soil. **Absorbs twice as much water as ordinary compost.
