Fill the CowPotswith potting soil mix and plant seeds according to the directions on the seed packet or transplant seedling into pot.

CowPots can be top or bottom watered.
Manure naturally retains moisture – make sure not to over-water.
Give the pot time to harden between watering (prevents over-watering and reduces mold-forming spores).

Pots turn dark brown when wet and light brown when it's time to water again.
When seedlings are ready for planting, place entire CowPot into soil, cover and water.
