Hello everyone,
I am new to growing African Violets and need a little help...I have about 6 plants that I potted in self watering containers using Miracle gro African Violet mix, which I am now thinking is too heavy. Should probably repot in soil less mix correct? Can you recommend a source for this type of soil? Also which fertilizer does everyone favor?
Thanks for any and all help
I've also just joined the AVS society and I hope that turns out to be a good investment..
Jill
