People have many different reasons for considering an organic horticulture approach. For example, some people appreciate the health benefits but are unsure about what equipment and tools are needed to get started. Organic gardening also involves choosing from a large variety of different seeds as well. The following article will offer you some helpful advice to meet with organic gardening success.

TIP! Put down sod correctly. The soil requires preparation before sod can be laid.

Lay sod properly. You will need to prepare your lawn soil before laying the sod. Pull all the weeds and loosen the soil so the new roots can take easily. Lightly, but firmly compact the soil, making sure it is flat. Thoroughly water the soil. Staggered rows with offset joints is the best way for the sod to be laid out. Even out the surface of the sod by firming it down flat, filling any available gaps with a handful of dirt. Keep the sod moist and avoid walking on it until it is well-rooted, usually two to three weeks.

You can use the wooden handles of your tools as measurement sticks. You can use shovels or rakes as measuring sticks. Place the handles on the ground and measure them. Use a permanent marker to label distances. Now when you go garden the next time, you’ll have a giant ruler at your command.

TIP! You must gradually introduce your plants to changing conditions and temperatures, so you do not shock them. The first day you transfer your plants, you should only allow them to sit in direct sunlight for a few hours.

Grow wheat or cat grass in the area around the plants that your cat is eating. Another option is to protect your plants by lacing them with offensive entities, such as peels from citrus fruit or even moth balls from your closet.

When you decide to add vegetables into your garden space, be aware that they must be placed where they will receive direct sunlight for a minimum of six hours daily. Most vegetables need that much sun to grow rapidly and successfully. This holds true for some types of flowers.

TIP! Plant a variety of annuals, biennials and perennials to keep your flower beds bright. Using a variety of flowers allows your flower garden to have a different look each season.

To help young plants, try pouring boiling water on top of nearby weeds. Any vessel of boiling water that you can carry safely can be used as an organic herbicide. Pour boiling water on any weeds, but be careful not to spill it on plants you want to keep. The extreme heat of the water will cause damage to the weeds’ roots, which will stop them from growing any more.

If you are planning on growing peas, start them indoors before putting them outdoors in your garden. Install your plants inside and wait for the seeds to germinate. The seedling may also be hardier, which means that they can better resist disease and attacks from pests. You will be able to transfer the seedlings outdoors after they become better established.

Spectrum Pesticides

Broad-spectrum pesticides are really not the optimal choice for pest control in your garden. Broad-spectrum pesticides will kill insects that are helpful to your garden as well as the harmful ones. Many times good bugs will be more sensitive to harmful pesticides than the ones you are trying to get rid of. If your good bug population goes down, your problem will only get worse. This might result in you having to use even more pesticides to get rid of the pests.

TIP! If you want your garden to blossom with flowers throughout the spring and summer, plant some bulbs in it. Bulbs are generally very simple to grow and hearty, as well; they will continue to grow for years.

As you have learned, having an organic garden is an important factor in healthy dietary habits, as is a thorough understanding of the many plants you can choose from. Following the above tips is a very good starting place to successfully grow an organic garden for you and your family.
