FAQ

What's the first thing you should do when you begin a garden project?

The first step to starting a garden is to prepare it. This includes adding organic matter like composted cow manure, grass clippings leaves, straw, and so on, which will help to provide plant nutrients. Next, plant seedlings or seeds in the prepared holes. Finally, water thoroughly.


What vegetables can you grow together?

It is possible to grow tomatoes and peppers together, as they like the same soil conditions and temperatures. They complement each other well since tomatoes need heat to ripen while peppers require cooler temperatures for optimal flavor. To grow them together, you can start seeds indoors around six weeks before planting. After the weather has warmed up, you can transplant the pepper plants and tomatoes outside.


What is the minimum space required to grow vegetables?

It is best to remember that 1/2 pound of seed will be required for every square foot. So if you have an area of 10 feet by 10 feet (3 meters by 3 meters), you'll need 100 pounds of seeds.


How can I tell what kind of soil is mine?

You can tell by looking at the color of the dirt. Darker soils contain more organic matter than lighter-colored ones. Another option is to test the soil. These tests determine the amount of nutrients in the soil.


What time should I plant herbs in my garden?

Herbs should be planted during springtime when soil temperatures reach 55degF. For best results, plant them in full sunlight. Basil indoors can be grown in pots with potting mixture. They should be kept out of direct sunlight until they grow leaves. When the plants have started to grow, transfer them into bright indirect sunlight. After three weeks, you can transplant them to individual pots and water them every day.

How To

How to apply foliar fertilizers

Foliar fertilizers may be applied to the leaves of plants by spraying. In addition to providing nutrients to the plant, they help increase photosynthesis, improve water retention, prevent disease, increase resistance against pests, promote growth and development, and provide protection from weather conditions. You can use them to treat all kinds of plants: fruits, vegetables; flowers; trees; shrubs; grasses; lawns.

Foliar fertilizers are safe for the soil and do not cause any soil contamination. The type of plant, the size of the plant and how many leaves it has will determine how much fertilizer is needed. It's best to use foliar fertilizers when the plant is actively growing. This allows them to absorb the nutrients faster. Follow these steps when fertilizing your garden.

  • It is important to know the type of fertilizer that you need. Some products only have one nutrient while others contain multiple elements. Ask your local nursery if you don’t know what product you need.
  • Follow the directions carefully. Before spraying, be sure to read and understand the label. Do not spray near windows or doors because this could cause damage to the building. Keep out of reach of children and pets.
  • If possible, use a hose attachment. To avoid overspray, turn off the nozzle after every few sprays.
  • Mixing different types of foliar fertilisers can cause problems. Mixing two types of fertilizers can lead to harmful side effects such as leaf burning and staining.
  • Spray the fertilizer at least five feet from any trunk. It is important to leave at least three foot between the tree trunks, and the edge of any area you intend to apply the fertilizer.
  • Wait until the sun goes down before applying. Sunlight causes the fertilizer's light-sensitive chemicals to become inactive.
  • Spread the fertilizer evenly across the leaves. Spread the fertilizer evenly over large areas.
  • Allow the fertilizer time to dry completely before watering.
