Use the great information provided in this article to build upon your own current knowledge and hopefully, learn something new to maximize the benefits both for you and everyone you know.
When first growing a plant you should make sure that it has all the nutrition and water that it needs. The sprouting stage for most plants is the time when it is most vulnerable to drying out or dying. With proper care, a sprout will mature into a full adult plant which is much more resistant to environmental and animal threats.
If you notice dry decay at the blossom end of your fruiting vegetables, blossom end rot could be to blame. This is caused by a lack of calcium in your soil. To remedy the rot organically, use eggshells. Crush three or four eggshells and bury them in the soil around the affected plant.
Discourage rabbits from using your garden as a snack bar. Rabbits will take advantage of your organic garden if you give them the chance. They don't tend to discriminate between certain foods, eating anything that they encounter. Blood meal, wood ashes, hot pepper flakes, chili powder or garlic powder sprinkled around your plants will deter them. You can also sprinkle black pepper directly on a plant, which will give the rabbit a sneezing fit.
Water your organic garden, thoroughly. If you only water your garden for brief periods, the water will stay near the surface of the soil and the roots of your plant will likewise stay near the surface of the soil. To establish deep, strong roots on your plants, water the ground thoroughly, so that the water and roots travel deep into the soil.
To summarize, you already know why it is great to have an organic garden, now it is time to further your expertise in the field. Ideally, you learned something new in this area and will be able to grow a much better garden. There is nothing better than being able to enjoy produce that you grew yourself.
