Organic horticulture may be a major pain, or a joyous hobby. Read this article to find out more about this activity.


TIP! Clay soil is hard and will also stick to a shovel, making it difficult to work with. To make working in clay easier, rub the shovel with floor or car wax and then buff it with a cloth.

If you work with clay soil, you have probably found using a shovel very frustrating and exhausting. Simplify the process by putting a bit of wax onto the shovel. The clay won’t stick then. The clay will slide off of its surface and it will prevent rust.


If you want to keep your garden free of pests, start with healthy soil! The hearty plants that will grow in a garden with rich soil can resist the bugs and diseases that weak plants can’t withstand. High-quality soil that is low on chemicals is key. It’s the first thing you should think about when planning on growing your garden.


Flower Beds


Brighten up your flower beds with annuals and biennials. These usually grow quickly, and provide an easy-to-change solution to making your flower beds bright and beautiful. They allow you to select different flowers from one year or season to the next. They can make a handy, gap-filler between shrubs and perennials located in sunny areas. Notable collections include sunflower, marigold, hollyhock, rudbeckia, cosmos, and petunia.


TIP! Having healthy soil in your garden is your number one defense against pests! Healthy soil leads to healthy plants with more strength to deflect those insects and various diseases. If you want to get the best plants, begin with a soil that has hardly any chemicals, and that will bring salts.

Plant vines like ivy to cover fences and dividing walls. Plants that grow as climbers are quite versatile, helping you hide ugly walls or fences, many times within only one season of growth. You can also use them in your landscape to cover an existing arbor, or allow them to climb up trees, or through shrubs. Some may need to be attached to a support, and others will attach themselves to any surface using their twining stems or tendrils. A few good choices are climbing roses, wisteria, jasmine, honeysuckle and clematis.


Start Planting


TIP! If powdery mildew appears on your plants, don’t purchase expensive chemical solutions. Put a little baking soda and some dish soap in water.

When it’s autumn, it’s time to start planting all of your fall edibles. Why not plant lettuce and kale inside a hollowed-out pumpkin? You simply need to cut off the top, scoop out the guts, and spray your pumpkin with Wilt-Pruf. Once you have completed this, start planting!


If growing vegetables, make sure they are in a location in your garden where they will be exposed daily to at least six hours of the sun. Most vegetables require this amount of sun in order to grow properly and at a quicker pace. It’s also the same for some types of flowers.


TIP! For proper optimum growth, plants require sufficient amounts of carbon dioxide (CO2). The majority of plants thrive when they are exposed to a high level of carbon dioxide.

As stated in the above article, many people do not realize how much more there is to organic gardening. While it takes quite a bit of effort and lots of patience, your pay off in the end will be a fantastic organic garden. If you take the information in this piece to heart, you will soon have an effective arsenal of organic horticulture techniques.
