Dazkeirle Posted February 17, 2014 Report Share Posted February 17, 2014 That's it really? I have quite a bit of old peat in pots that were used for a previous collection that are now dry as a bone with dead plants. Is it possible to rehydrate the pots or do i need fresh peat? I'm fairly sure the plants have had it mind. They went super dormant (my bad). Regards, Darren Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Peter Hewitt Posted February 17, 2014 Report Share Posted February 17, 2014 Just throw the peat in to a bucket of water, re hydrate it, work it through your fingers and then use it. Make sure to remove any dead plant material. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest paul y Posted February 18, 2014 Report Share Posted February 18, 2014 don't be 100% that all the plants are dead, I did the same with a hundred plus canna tubers that were left out in snow and frost, big amorphous blob of goop that went in the compost, 3 months later cannas galore growing out the compost bin.

Peter Hewitt Posted February 25, 2014 Report Share Posted February 25, 2014 (edited) Same here, but in my case I have Venus flytraps and Sarracenia popping up in all my Orchid pots. Edited February 25, 2014 by Peter Hewitt Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
