Preparing Planter or Grow Bed for Planting
- If Water Reservoir in Planter/Grow Bed is empty,fill it by pouring water into Water Filling Pipe till you see water flowing from the Water Overflow Hole.
- Fill Planter/Grow Bed with Light-Weight Well-Draining,Plant Nutrient Rich Potting Soil Mix.
- It is highly recommended to use specially formulated Organic Potting Soil Mix from GreenUpMySpaces’ for best results and healthy plant growth.
- Also, Water the Planter/Grow Bed from Top surface also, till it is drenched completely and you can see excess water flowing out from Overflow Hole.
- Leave Planter/Grow Bed to rest for a day or overnight. This will help Potting Soil Mix to settle down and kick-start the wicking and biological activity in Planter/Grow Bed.

Repotting Plants in Raised Planter & Grow Beds?
- Carefully evaluate whether sunlight, weather and environment are conducive for good growth of plant being repotted.
- Water the existing pot with plant till it is soaked completely.
- Let it rest for a couple of hours so that roots can absorb plenty of water.The plant will come out of its existing pot easily, if the potting soil is moist.
- Do not uproot the plant from the existing pot. It will damage and harm the delicate roots of the plant.
- As shown in Figure, gently tap the pot a couple of times to loosen the soil.
- Carefully, remove plant from its existing pot and plant in in your new Planter / Grow Bed.
- Provide adequate spacing between plants, else they will start competing with each other for space and soil nutrients.
- Gently water the repotted plants from Top Surface of Potting Soil Mix a couple times. This is because it takes time for the plant’s roots to grow deep into Planter/Grow Bed

Caring for plants and Watering Them
- Once your plants have settled down in Planter/Grow Bed, it’s time for Plant Parenting and nurturing them.
- Regularly, check whether the Potting Soil Mix is completely dry on the surface, about half an inch below.
- If so, it’s time to fill the water reservoir thru Water Filling Tube of Planter/Grow Bed.
- Also, Water the plants from the top surface of the Potting Soil Mix. This allows plants with shallow roots starved of water to immediately get water. Wicking is a slow process and it takes time for the wet potting mix soil at the surface to get wet due to wicking action.
- Growth through innovation/creativity:
Rather than be constrained by ideas for new products, services and new markets coming from just a few people, a Thinking Corporation can tap into the employees. - Increased profits:
The corporation will experience an increase in profits due to savings in operating costs as well as sales from new products, services and ventures.
- Higher business values:
The link between profits and business value means that the moment a corporation creates a new sustainable level of profit, the business value is adjusted accordingly. - Lower staff turnover:
This, combined with the culture that must exist for innovation and creativity to flourish, means that new employees will be attracted to the organization.
