What To Do If Your Soil is Too Alkaline

图片
In A Nutshell Your best option is to add organic matter and grow plants that do well in alkaline soils. The Whole Story Technically, all soils with a pH higher than 7.0 are alkaline, or "sweet," but most garden plants tolerate a pH up to about 7.5. Alkaline soils are generally composed of basic (high pH) parent materials such as limestone (calcium carbonate). High-pH soils are more prevalent in arid climates, because rainfall does not leach the calcium and other basic materials out of the soil. Soil pH affects nutrient availability for plants, and in soils with a pH over 7.8, iron, zinc, and phosphorus deficiencies are common. Lowering soil pH is a slow and challenging process. "The truth is, lowering soil pH is hard, because the limestone in the soil continually dissolves," says Jessica Davis, Ph.D., a professor of soil science at Colorado State University. Davis recommends getting your soil tested to determine its pH, lime content, soil texture, and min

Are the Nematodes A Friend Or A Foe?

Nematodes While most of the thousands of species of nematodes on Earth are not harmful, some nematodes parasitize and cause diseases in humans and other animals as well as attack and feed on living plants. However, there are ways to deter these pesky pests from disrupting your garden—like planting  Marigolds To Protect Your Melons.   While most nematodes are beneficial, a few species of these translucent, unsegmented worms are plant parasites. Pest species are only about 1/50 inch long and cause root knots or galls, injured root tips, excessive root branching, leaf galls, lesions or dying tissue, and twisted, distorted leaves. Plants most commonly attacked at the roots include tomatoes, potatoes, peppers, lettuce, corn, and carrots. Plants that sustain leaf and stem injury include chrysanthemums, onions, rye, and alfalfa. What Are They? Often described as wormlike, nematodes are not closely related to true worms. They are multicellular animals with smooth, unsegm

7 Ways To Grow Potatoes

图片
For the five raised planting techniques, I used a mixture of 2 parts topsoil to 1 part compost. Through the course of the growing potato season, the benefits and drawbacks of each became clear. 1. Hilled Rows Dig straight, shallow trenches, 2 to 3 feet apart, in prepared soil. Plant seed potatoes 12 inches apart and cover with about 3 inches of soil. When the shoots reach 10 to 12 inches tall, use a hoe or shovel to scoop soil from between rows and mound it against the plants, burying the stems halfway. Repeat as needed through the growing season to keep the tubers covered. Pros:  No   containers   to buy or build; no   soil   to transport. This is a simple, inexpensive, and proven method that farmers have used for millennia. Practical for large-scale plantings. Cons:  Yield may be limited by the quality of the soil. In places where the soil is badly compacted or low in organic matter, one of the aboveground techniques might work better. 2. Straw Mulch Place seed pot
