I have prepared all my pots ready for bedding plants. Replace the compost and mix fresh with 1/3 perlite and a handful of slow release plant fertilizer ( i use Miracle-Gro but poundland sell there own which is just as good)
You can feed your pots at the same time. Dig a few pellets around the root of each plant.
