How to use wool pellets

← Back to journal

Wool pellets are usually fairly new to the gardeners we work with, so we created this handy guide to help you out, whatever your setup looks like.

Situation Directions
New potting mix Mix in ½ cup per gallon of soil
(1 lb covers approx. a 4'×8' garden bed)
Larger area Till in at 2–3% of volume
Small pots 1 pellet per inch of pot diameter
(for pots less than 10" in diameter)
Existing plants Sprinkle pellets around the base of the plant and press into soil
Seed starting 1 pellet per block - use instead of peat moss
