My builder uses Houzz Pro to plan the timeline and give detailed estimates and daily updates with photos of progress, and provide invoices at pre-agreed key points in the build. This made the whole experience much more efficient and stress-free.

Soil, Compost & Mulch

same soil, different plant ok?

15 years ago

I just transferred my existing potted guava tree to a larger container, but there were some leftover potting soil in the original container. Was wondering if it's ok to reuse those old soil to plant a different fruit tree and mix with new potting soil?
