FAQ
When to plant flowers
Spring is the best season to plant flowers. It is when the temperatures are warmer and the soil is still moist. If you live outside of a warm climate, it is best not to plant flowers until the first frost. The ideal temperature for growing plants indoors is around 60 degrees Fahrenheit.
What is a planting schedule?
A planting calendar is a list that lists plants that should be planted at specific times throughout the year. The goal is for plants to grow at their best while minimizing stress. Early spring crops like spinach, lettuce, and peas must be sow after the last frost date. Squash, cucumbers, and summer beans are some of the later spring crops. Fall crops include carrots, cabbage, broccoli, cauliflower, kale, and potatoes.
What is the difference between hydroponic gardening and aquaponic gardening?
Hydroponic gardening uses nutrients-rich water to feed plants. Aquaponics is a system that combines fish tanks and plants to create an ecosystem that is self-sufficient. It's almost like having a farm right at home.
How much space do vegetable gardens need?
A good rule is that 1 square foot of soil needs 1/2 pound. Therefore, 100 pounds of seeds is required for a surface of 10 feet x 10 feet (3 m x 3 m).
How often should I water my indoor plant?
Watering indoor plants should be done every two days. It is important to maintain the humidity level in your home. For healthy plants, humidity is vital.
How can I find out what type of soil my house has?
The dirt's color can tell you what it is. Darker soils contain more organic matter than lighter-colored ones. Soil testing is another option. These tests measure the number of nutrients present in the soil.
What's the best way to keep my indoor plant alive?
Indoor plants can survive for many years. To promote new growth, it is essential to repot your indoor plants every few month. It's easy to repot your plant. Simply remove the soil and add new compost.
