What type of compost should you use for indoor plants?
Are you looking to grow beautiful indoor plants but unsure what type of compost to use? Look no further than multi-purpose compost.

At Whitakers Garden Centre, we believe in the power of high-quality soil for growing healthy and thriving indoor plants. And while there are specific houseplant soils and composts available on the market, multi-purpose compost can work just as well for your potted plants.

But first, let's clarify what we mean by "multi-purpose" compost. This type of compost is suitable for both indoor and outdoor plants, making it a versatile option for gardeners of all kinds. While there may be specific indoor or houseplant composts on the market, these products often come at a higher cost and contain similar ingredients to multi-purpose compost.

So, can you use multi-purpose compost for indoor plants? The answer is a resounding yes. Look for compost labelled as "all-purpose" or "multi-purpose" and double-check with the supplier if you are unsure. It's always better to be safe than sorry.

While some indoor-specific composts may have added ingredients for marketing purposes, the majority of these products contain similar ingredients to multi-purpose compost. As long as your compost of choice is high-quality and suitable for plants, it will work just fine for your indoor plants.

One type of multi-purpose compost that we highly recommend for indoor plants is Jack's Magic 50:50 Compost. Not only is it affordable and versatile, but it also provides several benefits for your potted plants.

For starters, Jack's Magic 50:50 Compost is a great soil conditioner, helping to improve the overall health and vitality of your plants. It's also low-maintenance, making it a convenient choice for busy gardeners.
