How to Guide

STEP 6 – Add moist potting mix until level
with the top of your Patio Pickers
Patio Garden. Mix
the dolomite you already placed with the top 3–4”
of potting
mix. Level the top again so it’s even
with the top of the Patio Pickers box.
STEP 7 – Create a 2” trough for the fertilizer.
To determine location of plants and fertilizer
trough, refer to Patio Pickers Placement Chart.
STEP 8 – Place fertilizer in trough. Two cups
of synthetic or three cups of organic.
STEP 9 – Mound additional potting mix
over the fertilizer and 2” above the top of the
Patio Pickers box.
STEP 10 – Secure mulch cover and cut
"X"s in the mulch cover for fill tube and plants.
Again, refer to Patio Pickers Placement Chart to
determine the number and location of plants.
Cut the "X"s to the same size as the root ball
of your seedlings.
STEP 11 – Plant your seedlings/seeds.
Refer to the recommended planting instructions
that come with your seedlings or seeds. Gently
loosen plant root ball and place through mulch
cover.
STEP 12 – Water regularly. Use the fill
tube to fill reservoir and keep full. The reservoir
is full when you notice water flowing from the
overflow hole in the side of the Patio Pickers
box. Simply add water every few days for young
plants. Add water at least once every day
as your plants mature.
