Q&A

What are the benefits of removing fruits from trees in a timely manner?

Removing fruits from trees in a timely manner signals to the trees that they need to produce more fruit, alleviates strain on the tree's systems, and allows the tree to heal, produce stronger roots, more branches, and leaves since it doesn't have to put energy into the fruit anymore.

Why do you suggest private gardening classes?

Private gardening classes are suggested for individuals who want to learn more about gardening in-depth. These classes focus on helping people understand what they're missing in gardening and teach them to reap effectively what they sow.

Can the soil affect the healthiness and nutrient content of the food produced?

Yes, the healthiness and nutrient content of the food depend significantly on the soil's health. The same type of food grown in different soils may show a disparity in nutrient density. It's crucial to test soil to ensure it contains the necessary macro and micronutrients for the plants.

Why is walking barefoot in the garden recommended?

Walking barefoot, also known as grounding, is recommended for removing metals and toxins from your body. It connects you with the Earth and benefits your health by absorbing the minerals in the soil through the skin, which is the body's largest organ.

Why is compost important for your garden?

Compost is important because it helps neutralize the pH in the soil and typically has a balanced pH suitable for most plants. Not all compost is equal, so it's vital to ensure your compost has balanced nutrients, which can be achieved using a ratio like three parts of carbon to one part of nitrogen.

What are the benefits of recycling cardboard boxes for compost?

Recycling cardboard boxes into compost turns them into carbon-rich materials that are good for your soil and beneficial for the microorganisms like red wiggler worms that help break down the compost.

How can you adjust the pH of your soil using household items?

You can adjust the pH of the soil by using household items like baking soda and distilled vinegar. Baking soda can neutralize the soil and restore health to plants. Vinegar can be used to acidify the soil; for example, mixing a cup of vinegar with two cups of purified water can lower the pH to suit certain plants like citrus trees.
