Why we need to control nematodes?

The number of nematodes in the soil is abundant and varied. Soil nematodes are widely distributed in all types of soils. The number of nematodes in different soil depths is different. In the 10-20 cm soil layer, soil nematodes distribute most. The role of nematodes There are two sides to everything, and the same goes for nematodes. Let me talk about the positive side first. Soil nematodes play a very important role in the decomposition of organic matter, nutrient conversion and energy transfer, and are an important part of the soil ecosystem. For example, nematode excreta can contribute 19% of the dissolved nitrogen in the soil. At the same time, nematodes are also used as soil indicator organisms to evaluate the ecosystem biological effects, soil health, ecosystem succession, or disturbance levels. Almost every plant can be parasited or harmed by one or more nematodes. Some nematodes feed on plants and are commonly referred to as ‘eelworms’ in the British-speaking world. Mo...

The 1 Thing In Your Garden You're Not Paying Enough Attention To

图片
Soil works harder in an intensively planted garden, so it needs more attention. Your soil works the hardest in your garden, so why wouldn't you dedicate more time making sure it has everything it needs to help your plot thrive? Whether you're growing  spring flowers  like  zinnias  or edibles like  cherry tomatoes ,  raspberries ,  chives , and  tomatillos , take a few extra moments to make sure that your soil is in tip top shape, starting with the  10 Easy Soil Tests  and a little extra focus on these areas of concern.  Tilling Remove sod, weeds, rocks, and roots. Till in 6 inches of material from your  compost pile  or well-rotted mature for fertility and good soil structure. Get a soil test and amend the pH level, aiming for a neutral pH, if recommended.

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...

Are the Nematodes A Friend Or A Foe?

图片
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 smoot...
