15G large double King in pot…

Recommended Posts

Hello, 
I have an oversized 15G King that I’d like to put in an outdoor pot/urn - how big do I need to allow future growth? Also, should I just sit in in a bed and sides of kellog’s mix?

Thanks!

I'm no expert, but I'd get something big. You're not going to want to repot it every year or 2.  Maybe a 25g. Just make sure it drains really well.

Sounds about right - what about soil makeup?

Loose so you can drown and drain the hell out of it very frequently

I dunno what Kellogs Mix is. But I'd look for a palm soil and amend it with stuff like bark, coarse sand, and some crushed LECA to aid in drainage and def make sure the pot has drainage holes.
