The healthier the plants are, the better your garden is going to look. So, what’s the secret a healthy and happy garden?
Right Plant, Right Place This is a simple but important step to ensure your plants are as healthy as possible - simply position each plant in the right place for them. This means considering their light needs, preferred temperature and humidity, and the space that they will require in order to grow healthily. If you can get all that right, it’s going to really help a lot with making your plants and your garden a lot healthier. Improve Soil Quality The soil is obviously always going to be important too, and you need to make sure that you are doing everything you can to improve the soil quality. This can be done in several ways. You can make your own compost from garden and food waste, which can lead to a very nutrient rich kind of soil, or you can consider using some premium mulch as well. The best way is to go for a combination of these - and make sure that you are adding in some fresh compost every year if you can. Water Correctly Many people harm their plants by overwatering. You might find yourself thinking that more water is always better, but this is simply not the case. Very often, in fact, it is the opposite - plants often need a lot less water. Checking the soil moisture before you water - if it’s dry, it’s time to water, otherwise leave it alone. Overwatering your plants makes them vulnerable to pests and diseases. Feed Regularly Regular feeding is another way to make your plants happier and healthier. With regular feeding, your plants will be healthier and happier. Make sure you are using a balanced fertilizer during the growing season for the best possible results here - and repot wherever your healthy plants outgrow their current living quarters.
