How do I determine the type of soil that I have?

The color of the soil can tell you how much organic matter it contains. The soil color will tell you if it contains more organic matter than the lighter ones. Soil tests are another option. These tests assess the soil's nutritional content.

One square foot of soil will require 1/2 pound of seeds. This is a good rule of thumb. Therefore, 100 pounds of seeds is required for a surface of 10 feet x 10 feet (3 m x 3 m).


Are pots possible to grow fruit trees?

Yes! If space is limited, you can grow fruit trees in pots. Make sure your pot is drained to prevent the tree from getting rotted by excess moisture. Also ensure that the pot is large enough to accommodate the root ball. This will prevent the tree from being stressed.

How To

Basil growing tips

Basil is one herb you can use to make many different dishes in your kitchen. It's great for flavoring dishes, adding flavor to soups, sauces, salads, pasta, and even desserts. Here are some ways to grow basil indoors.

  1. You should choose carefully where to place your basil. Basil is an evergreen plant. If it's not located in the right area, it will only last one season. It can tolerate partial shade but prefers full sun. If you are growing it outside, choose a spot with good air circulation.
  2. Plant the seeds. Basil seeds should be planted at least two weeks before the last frost date. In small pots with potting mixture, sow seeds about 1/2 inch deep. Place the pots in clear plastic wrap. Keep them out of direct sunlight. Germination takes approximately ten days. After they have germinated move them into a cool, shaded place where the temperature stays around 70 degrees Fahrenheit.
  3. Once they are large enough to handle, transfer the seedlings. Transplant the seedlings into larger pots by removing the plastic wrap. To drain excess moisture, fill each container with potting mixture. As necessary, you can add more potting material. The containers should be placed in a sunny location or under indirect lighting. Mist the plants daily to prevent wilting.
  4. After the danger of frost has passed, apply a thick layer of mulch over the top of the plants. This will prevent them from frost damage and help to reduce water loss.
  5. Water the plants regularly. Basil needs to be hydrated regularly to ensure its survival. A rain gauge can be used to measure how much water plants need. Use a timer to automatically turn off irrigation during dry spells.
  6. When your basil reaches its peak, pick it. For bushier growth, pick leaves more often.
  7. The leaves can be dried on paper towels or screens. The leaves can be stored in glass jars or bags in their refrigerator.
