{"title":"Soil Conditioners and Wetting Agents","description":"\u003cp\u003eMost plant problems start in the soil, and no amount of fertiliser fixes ground that repels water, sets like concrete or sits at the wrong pH. This Plant Doctor range covers the four jobs a soil conditioner can do: get water in, open up clay, correct acidity and build the soil's ability to hold nutrients. Work out which of those you are facing first, because the products are not interchangeable.
