Gardening Secrets

Stop wind from damaging your tomatoes and peppers by planting them as deep as the first leaves.

After you plant strawberries for the first year, pick off the blooms to make the plant healthy and make better, and bigger strawberries.

Water your tomatoes with 1 tablespoon of epsom salts to a gallon of water.

Water your plants with a little milk, mix crushed egg shells into the soil, water plants moderately but regularly to avoid getting blossom end rot in tomatoes.

When growing green peppers, put large rocks next to each plant, the sun will warm the rocks and draw heat to the pepper plants, pepper plants like heat, and they seem to grow much better.

Water tomatoes from the bottom, they don't like getting their leaves wet.

Welcome to the Eco Huddle killgreeth!

Glad you enjoyed your visit. Went to your site but seemed to be all in Dutch so İ didn't get too far. İ am having enough trouble learning Turkish!

Have a good day,
