Garden Master - Spring 2023

the Power of Sun Position Observe the sunlight patterns in your garden or balcony and position your plants accordingly. If you see dry, almost burn-like spots on your leaves, then you need to reassess the position of your plant, as it may get sun burned. When plants lack light, they don’t produce chlorophyll (the green pigment in plants) and can turn pale green to yellow to white. Plant stems become “leggy,” meaning stems become long and thin and appear to be reaching toward the source of light. Which lets you create your own microclimate, controlling the temperature and humidity you expose your plants to. Whether you want to grow vegetables all year long, cultivate exotic plants, or start seedlings off very early in the season, your greenhouse will provide the perfect growing environment. As our rose expert Neelan advises, it’s crucial to make sure that your soil is well-prepared and nourished before planting. Clear any weeds or debris from the planting area and loosen the soil with a garden fork or a tiller. Incorporate organic matter like compost or well-rotted manure to improve soil fertility, structure, and drainage. Healthy soil sets the stage for healthy plants! Harnessin Nurturin & Enjoying Your Garden Stay attentive to your garden’s needs by regularly monitoring for pests, diseases, and nutrient deficiencies. Remove weeds promptly to prevent competition for resources. Prune and deadhead your plants to encourage new growth and prolong blooming. Regularly feed your plants with organic fertilisers to ensure a continuous supply of nutrients. Consider our Garden Master Grow House the Soil Healthy soil sets the stage for healthy plants!
