Broadcast at 1/2 pound per 100 sq.ft. |
Shrubs&Evergreens: Sprinkle
1/4 cup evenly around drip line of plant and work into top 1 inch of soil. |
Mix 1 to 3 tablespoons per gallon of water. |
spray the leaves |
Epsom salt (magnesium sulfate) |
a quarter-cup of
Epsom salt per 500 square feet when you irrigate your plants. Gardenstartup: 1 cup per 100 square feet. Mix
into soil before planting. |
Evergreen = 1-2 tbs/gallon to the soil and spray once 1-2 week. |
· Fertilize your soil in the winter, about a month before growing season starts, and then add Epsom salt when you set the plants. With sandier soil, you may want to fertilize about two weeks before growing season begins. Look for yellowing between the veins of leaves, because it could be a sign of magnesium deficiency that might require Epsom salt. |
For rose, pepper,
tomato, 1 to 2 tbs with 1 gallon water to the soil and spray once 1 to 2 week
for plants growing green well and good fruit. Fruit: Mix Epsom salt with water at a ratio of
about a quarter-cup of Epsom salt per 500 square feet when you irrigate your
plants. making the nutrients
more available to the plants. as a secondary nutrient and fruit sweeter.

Improves the soil

Prevents soil

Upgrades the soil

nitrogen loss from soil |

once every 4-6 weeks in most cases for the
maintenance purposes. And apply when start blooming time. |
Keep a minimum of 7 days between
application. Do not apply to crops under stress. |
Plants food |

|
teaspoon baking soda
1 tablespoon Epsom salts½ teaspoon of ammonia 1 gallon of water |
Mix to soil or spray the plants. |
Neem oil |
apply neem oil is in a soil drench, which
involves pouring the diluted solution directly on the soil. This is a good
method for treating fungus gnat larvae, nematodes, and other soil-borne
pests. When applied as a soil drench, the compound azadirachtin is also taken
up by plants through roots and works as a mild systemic pesticide against
certain insects (such as aphids) that feed on the foliage by sucking plant
juices. |
|
Begin by mixing the water and soap. For a
gallon of water use one teaspoon of soap, and for a quart spray bottle,
reduce the amount of soap to ¼ teaspoon. After the water and soap are mixed,
add a small amount of neem oil, one to two tablespoons per gallon of water,
or one to two teaspoons per quart of water. |
Foliar
sprays should be applied by misting the entire plant, covering both the
undersides and topsides of leaves as well as stems. A second application is
usually required 7 to 10 days after the first. Neem oil isn't
recommended for recent transplants, certain thin-leaved herbs or leafy
greens, and plants exhibiting stress, since they can be particularly
sensitive. |
Plants foods
Ingredients:
·
1 teaspoon baking soda
Baking
soda on plants causes no apparent harm and may help prevent the bloom of fungal
spores in some cases. It is most effective on fruits and vegetables off the
vine or stem, but regular applications during the spring can minimize diseases
such as powdery mildew and other foliar diseases.
·
1 tablespoon Epsom
salts (magnesium sulfate)
Epsom
salt helps separate fertilizer bound to the soil, making the nutrients more
available to the plants.
·
½ teaspoon of ammonia
·
1 gallon of water
Add plant food
directly to the soil so that the plant’s roots can best absorb the nutrients.
Start by lightly topping your soil once a month and adjust how often you feed
your plants based on how they respond.
For rose, pepper, tomato, 1 to 2 tbs with 1 gallon water to the
soil and spray once 1 to 2 week for plants growing green well and good fruit.
Trees absorb Epsom Salt
best over the root zone. Use 2 tablespoons per 9 square feet by diluting in
water. Apply 3 times each year.
For shrubs (evergreens,
azaleas, rhododendron), apply 1 tablespoon per 9 square feet over the root zone
by diluting in water. Apply every 2 to 4 weeks.
