From using leftover coffee beans to making homemade tea, these tips will make gardening a breeze.
Gardening can be a bit overwhelming for the first-timer: what plants should you get? When should they be planted? How much water do they need? There’s a lot of questions that you’re going to have to ask yourself if you want your garden to bloom into something beautiful. You probably won’t be entering the local tomato contest, but perhaps you just want natural, better-tasting tomatoes than the ones you find at your local grocery store. Here are some great tips to make gardening easier, and make your garden bloom like a summer morning sunrise.
- Landscape: Pot-in-Pot
If you dread the idea of having to redo your landscape every time the seasons change, worry no more. You can use double pots to save you lots of time. Using plastic pots that you dig and place only once, you can drop another plastic pot on top of it. Then when the season is done, simply remove the top pot, and you can just drop your seasonal flowers in the pot under it.
- Plants Need Calcium Too
Just like a blender makes things easier to digest, blending egg shells make them easier to decompose and fertilize your garden with the necessary calcium that it needs. Just be sure to thoroughly wash your blender before you make your kale-drink.
- “No Pets Allowed”
If pets could read putting up a sign that reads, “NO PETS ALLOWED”, may deter them from ruining your garden (except maybe cats because they are evil), but they can’t so we have to take extra measures to stop them from digging and ruining everything. Placing plastic forks throughout your garden should do the trick. They’re not dumb, so one harmless prick on the nose or paw will keep them at bay.
