FAQ

When to plant herbs?

The ideal time to plant herbs is springtime, when the soil temperature is 55°F. To get the best results, they should be planted in full sun. To grow basil indoors, place seedlings in pots filled with potting mix and keep them out of direct sunlight until they sprout leaves. After plants begin to grow, you can move them into indirect sunlight. After three to four weeks, transplant them into individual containers. Keep them hydrated.


What vegetables are good to grow together?

Because they are both fond of similar soil conditions and temperatures, it is easy to grow peppers and tomatoes together. They are a good match since peppers need colder temperatures to produce their best flavor. Start seeds indoors approximately six weeks prior to planting. After the weather has warmed up, you can transplant the pepper plants and tomatoes outside.


Can I grow fruit trees inside pots?

Yes! If space is limited, you can grow fruit trees in pots. Ensure your pot has drainage holes so excess moisture won't rot the tree. You should also ensure that the pot is deep sufficient to support the root ball. This will prevent the tree from being stressed.


When to plant flowers?

When the weather is milder and the soil has a good moisture content, spring is the best time to plant flowers. If you live in colder climates, it is best to plant flowers after the first frost. The ideal temperature for growing plants indoors is around 60 degrees Fahrenheit.

How To

How to apply foliar fertilisers

Foliar fertilizers can be applied directly to plants' leaves by spraying. They are used to add nutrients to plants. They can be used to treat any plant, including fruits, vegetables, flowers, trees, shrubs, grasses, and lawns.

Foliar fertilizers can be applied without soil contamination. The type of soil, the size and amount of foliage, as well as the type of plant will all determine the fertilizer required. Foliar fertilizers work best when the plants are actively growing. This allows them faster to absorb the nutrients. These are the steps to follow when fertilizing your garden.

  • Make sure you know what kind of fertilizer you need. Some products only have one nutrient while others contain multiple elements. Ask your local nursery or gardening center if you don't know which product you need.
  • Be sure to follow the directions. Before spraying, read the label. Do not spray near windows or doors because this could cause damage to the building. Keep away from children and pets
  • If you have a hose attachment, use it. Turn off the nozzle after each few sprays to avoid excessive spraying.
  • Mixing different types of foliar fertilisers can cause problems. Mixing two kinds of fertilizers can lead, among other things, to burning or staining your leaves.
  • Spray at least five feet from the 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 sets before applying fertilizer. Sunlight causes light-sensitive chemicals in the fertilizer to break down.
  • Spread the fertilizer evenly among the leaves. For large areas, spread the fertilizer with an even hand.
  • Let the fertilizer air dry before watering.
