Many people are only just beginning to realize the joys of organic horticulture. With the advice this article contains, you can begin your own organic horticulture adventure and create a thriving oasis that all your family can enjoy. Just put these tips to work for you and you will soon see great results.

TIP! Try not to cause shock to your plants by gradually changing their conditions and temperature. The first day you transfer your plants, you should only allow them to sit in direct sunlight for a few hours.

Lay sod properly. You want to prepare the soil before you lay down the sod. Thoroughly weed the soil, and work it into a fine, smooth tilth. When the soil is clean, pack it tightly and create a flat surface. Gently sprinkle water on the soil until you are certain that it is thoroughly moistened. Lay the sod in straight rows, ensuring the seams meet perfectly. After the sod has been flattened to an even surface, you can use soil to fill any remaining gaps. According to your climate, you will likely need to water the new sod daily over a period of a couple of weeks. This will insure proper root formation and establishment.

Try not to cause shock to your plants by gradually changing their conditions and temperature. Put the plants outside in the sun for one to two hours in the beginning. Gradually increase the the time they spend outside over a one week period. After one week, the plants should be fully acclimated and ready to move outside.

TIP! Having healthy soil in your garden will help your plants avoid insect pests. The healthier the plants you grow, the more resistant they’ll be to illness, fungus, or bugs.

Select plants that produce a relatively high yield. Many times, hybrid plants tend to resist disease, and tolerate the cold weather better than their traditional counterparts, resulting in higher yields.

Stink Bugs

TIP! When winter arrives, transfer a few plants into the house for safe storage during the cold weather. You might want to transplant your most valuable varieties.

Keep an eye open for stink bugs in your garden, especially during the fall months. Stink bugs prefer peppers, beans, tomatoes, and various varieties of fruits. Decrease their presence as much as possible to avoid them wreaking havoc in your garden.

Grow some wheat grass or catnip for your cat to eat instead. It may also work to add citrus peelings or mothballs to the soil of the plants, because the odor is unpleasant to cats.

TIP! If you want an organic way to weed your garden, try “boiling” them. Boiling water can be considered as an herbicide, and it is a safe one.

If you have problems keeping the dog out of the garden, spray things like aftershave, perfume or other scents on the grass surrounding the garden. This will mask any scents that might attract your dog and make your garden less interesting to him.

Organic Garden

TIP! Mint is a very tasty herb that has a tendency to run wild in the garden if not kept in check. You can slow down this growth by planting them inside a pot or container! You can bury the container so the top is flush with the ground if desired, but the container’s walls will prevent the roots from spreading so that the plant won’t take over your entire garden.

As you can see, keeping up with an organic garden is both challenging and rewarding. It takes time and patience. Following the suggestions outlined above should help you get your organic garden off the ground more effectively. You can succeed as an organic gardener. You will have tasty, fresh vegetables and a beautiful addition to your home.
