Remember to turn off the water faucets, which include both indoors and outdoors, when you reading the pressure number. And then, send the information about this number to your manufacturers with a sketch of your property to receive the right component for your sprinkler system. 👉Water Meter Size There are two measurements: water meter size and well pump size. If your water source comes from a municipal system, you could find the size information on the meter, or on the utility bill. If it's not there, contact your water provider for the meter size. If you're using a well, you'll need to determine the size of your pump by looking at the m...

Even the newest gardener realizes the magic of using mulch in the vegetable garden as an excellent weed barrier, water retainer, and tempurature fluctuation reducer that can affect plant root systems. 👉Compost Compost not only builds soil texture, tilth, has nutrients that leach immediately into the soil — it works the same way as every other mulch. Use generous amounts from your compost bin (or pile) for the ultimate in mulch for the vegetable garden. 👉Dry Leaves Gather copious amounts of dry, fall leaves and use them in your vegetable bed immediately after collecting them. Come spring you’ll have nice humousy soil for planting. 👉Newspaper or Cardboard Newspaper is one of the handiest gardening tools ever an it’s fabulous as an organic mulch. Newspaper 100% biodegradable and the critters in the soil love it. 👉Straw and Seedless Hay Straw and seedless hay are terrific for the vegetable garden, but be sure to layer it on thick. 👉Grass Clippings I still like to use them as mulch aro...

Let's take a look at what plants need to be healthy and alive: 👉 The light: Sunlight is essential for them. It's something you can't miss any time, as they need it for photosynthesis, a process by which they convert that solar energy into their food (especially carbohydrates and starches). Also, in this process, its leaves absorb carbon dioxide (CO2) and release oxygen (O2), which as we know is a gas that we need to breathe. But some don't: ferns, maples, bromeliads (except those that live in dry climates), orchids, etc. 👉Water: Without water, no living thing can exist. For plants, it is absolutely necessary because it is a liquid, when in contact with minerals in the soil, plants can access them. But if we give plants more than they need, their roots will literally suffocate; Their pores become clogged and as a result are deprived of oxygen. Symptoms: rotting, leaves turn yellow and then brown starting from the oldest leaves, flower drop, ... IMPORTANT NOTE: Leaves c...

The bamboo plant, although beautiful to look at, is also a very difficult plant to get rid of, no matter what you choose. Fortunately, this is not impossible. We chemically damage it by the following steps: 👉Cut the bamboo close to the ground and wait for the bamboo shoots to grow. Herbicides will not be effective if the bamboo stalks have grown. Cut the bamboo in late winter so you can use the herbicide to kill new shoots in late spring or early summer. 👉Cut off the underground stems of the bamboo below the ground when the shoots start to grow back. Cut off as many subterranean trunk segments as possible. 👉Spray glyphosate herbicide on leaves, branches and bamboo shoots. The herbicide glyphosate only kills plants that come into direct contact with the drug. Remember to only spray on bamboo, do not pour glyphosate herbicide on the ground around the bamboo, as this will have no effect. 👉Also, you can use chemicals to kill roots and stumps. Another way to kill bamboo is to cut off th...

Principles of reasonable fertilization: apply the right amount, at the right time, with the right type, at the right rate, in accordance with the soil and the tree. 👉Fertilize the right type, the right rate There are many types of fertilizers. Each type of fertilizer has its own characteristics and effects. Usually the best fertilizer for plants is organic fertilizer. If using inorganic fertilizers to fertilize ornamental plants, pay attention to the dosage. 👉Time to fertilizeIn spring and summer, fast-growing trees can be fertilized with a lot of fertilizer, 1-2 times a week. In autumn, plants grow slowly, so apply less, once every 2-3 weeks. In winter, there is no need to fertilize. Fertilizer should be applied in the evening.Before watering or fertilizing, you should dig through the soil around the base of the plant, this will help the nutrients penetrate deep into the roots. 👉There are many methods of fertilizing, but there are 3 main ways to fertilize ornamental plants: applyin...

To ensure crop productivity, help plants grow and develop sustainably, improve crop productivity, and ensure food security, fertilizer is one of the key and indispensable factors. 👉What is chemical fertilizer? Chemical fertilizers, also known as inorganic fertilizers, are fertilizers derived from natural minerals or chemicals, produced by industrial processes. This fertilizer exists in the form of mineral salts obtained by undergoing physical processes Chemical fertilizers contain essential nutrients for plants such as: N, P, K, Cu, Zn, B, Ca, Mg, etc.Based on the separate nutritional elements, this fertilizer is divided into 3 basic groups: nitrogenous fertilizers, phosphorus fertilizers and potassium fertilizers.And some other chemical fertilizers such as compound fertilizers, complex fertilizers and trace fertilizers. 👉Single stool: Are fertilizers in the composition with effective macronutrients N or P2O5 or effective K2O: Nitrogen, Phosphorus, Potassium: 👉Compound fertilizer: D...

In part 1 we learned "How to completely remove a plant from the garden. In addition, it has a few other ways as follows: -Use a chain to pull the bush up from the ground. Another way to deal with less digging is to wrap the chain around the base of the tree and pull it out of the ground with a jack or trailer. This process will be easier if you can use a pickaxe to dig down the roots a little to pry them out of the soil. - Kill shrubs with chemicals. Cut off most of the bush, leaving only a short stump above the ground. Purchase a chemical insecticide containing glyphosate from a garden supply store. This method needs to be done soon after the tree is cut, and does not work with old stumps that are perennial in the garden. You need to be careful when working and follow the manufacturer's instructions. Treat the stump during the fall and winter, when the tree doesn't have much sap yet. You may need to drill a hole in the base of the tree to pour the potion in. You have to b...
