Gardening Tips
Plant buying
Stems and branches: Avoid plants with broken stems or
branches.
Roots: Knock the plant gently and take a look at the roots. Avoid plants where you see the roots are jammed in and curling around. These have been in their pot too long and are pot-bound. Also avoid any that have only recently been repotted and are more compost than roots.
Irrigation
-Avoid watering in the midday sun because the water will evaporate. The best time to water the garden is early in the morning or evening. -To reduce evaporation, don't water when it's windy. -Watering plants less frequently, but deeply and thoroughly helps them to develop healthy, deep root systems. |
