Pots & Soil practical container gardening

Contact

Questions, corrections and photos of your pots are all welcome.

Email hello@potsandsoil.com. I read everything and reply to most of it, usually within a few days. Replies are slower in May and June, when everything needs planting at once.

Worth emailing about

  • Corrections. If a pot size, variety name or number here is wrong, I would like to know. Corrections get made and dated.
  • "Why is my plant struggling?" Send a photo and tell me the pot size, how often you water, and how many hours of direct sun it gets. Those three answers explain most of it.
  • Something you'd like covered. Tell me what you are trying to grow and I will add it to the list of guides to write. It moves up when more than one person asks.

Not worth emailing about

Guest posts, link exchanges and paid placements are not something I take on, so those emails will not get a reply. A place in a review is not for sale.
