Light
Install your Sky Planter where there is enough natural light for your plant. You’ll notice that plants grow towards the light. For more balanced growth simply rotate the plant pot every few weeks.
Water
Not simply an upside down plant pot, a reservoir system feeds water gradually to the plant roots and minimises water loss through evaporation or drainage. A medium sized Sky Planter reservoir will typically hold enough water for up to two weeks in a temperate climate. You’ll need to refill more often during hot weather.
Soil
The Sky Planter is designed to hold standard indoor potting mix. Some specialty plants, such as orchids, require a different mix to encourage air circulation around their roots. If you’re unsure about the correct soil, ask your local garden centre staff for advice.
Nutrition
Feed your plants by putting liquid plant food directly into the reservoir but make sure it’s water soluble! Your local garden centre can advise about the right food for your plant. Remember, you can over-feed plants, so only use as directed.
