There are a number of methods available that will allow you to create your own thriving, healthy organic garden. You just need to learn what you can do, and then do it.

It can be very hard to shovel clay soil, especially when it sticks to your shovel as you are working. Coat and buff the digging end of the shovel with automobile wax to make digging easier. The wax will help keep dirt from sticking to the shovel, and will also keep the metal from rusting.

Try planting your plants in flower pots first, then transferring them to your garden once they have had a bit of time to grow. Doing this will increase the survival rate of all your outdoor plants. This method also reduces the waiting time between plantings. Once you’ve removed the previous group of plants, your seedlings can go into the ground.

Make sure you remove the weeds from your garden! Weeds can take over a healthy garden faster than you think. For this task, try using white vinegar. You can use white vinegar to eliminate weeds! A spray solution is much easier to apply than to rid your garden of weeds by hand.

When fall arrives, it’s time to plant your autumn vegetables. If you’d like to change things up a bit this season, put away your standard clay pots and plant your lettuce and kale inside of a pumpkin instead! Simply cut the pumpkin open at the top, so you can remove the seeds and insides. After that, spray Wilt-Pruf along the edges and on the inside of the pumpkin, so it doesn’t rot. Once you’ve done this, you can plant.

Try to grow some wheat or cat grass around your cat’s favorite plants. You can also try to offend the cats sense of smell with orange rinds or mothballs.

If you have planted vegetables within your garden, make sure that they are getting at least six hours of sunlight each day. Most vegetables need this amount of sunlight to grow the right way at a faster pace. Some flowers need the same thing.

Always have a plan for the garden prior to the start of planting it. Doing this makes it easier to keep track of where you planted what when you first start to see sprouts. You can also prevent yourself from losing small plants within a large garden.

A great garden starts from the seeds and not from the plants. When starting a new garden, the most environmentally friendly way is to start from seed. Many nurseries use plastic growing pots that are very seldom recycled. Try buying from organic nurseries and farms so your garden is not using anti-environmental products.

Only with the best knowledge can you take the most from your gardening efforts. Make use of these organic gardening tips.
