How to Set Up
1. Filling
Add about 18–20 liters of soil mix, using 2 parts garden soil + 1 part compost or vermicompost. Mix in 10–15% coco peat during hot months to keep the soil moist and cool.
2. Placement
Set the bag on a dry, level surface such as a tiled floor, concrete slab, or wooden stand. Place it where it gets 4–6 hours of light and won’t flood during rain.
3. Watering
Water gently until excess drains from the bottom. Check the soil daily — water only when the top inch feels dry.
