Vegetable Growing - Soil
Our Vegetable Growing Package starts with
SoilSyrup. Having good soil that's
high in humus and nutrients is very important in vegetable growing.
Your vegetables will be counting on you to provide everything they
need to grow. Preparing the soil with SoilSyrup is a great way to
boost humus levels and help your vegetables absorbs more nutrients.
SoilSyrup will actually improve
fertilizer absorption, so fertilizers like Algoflash work even
better. You can fertilize less and still make sure your vegetable
garden is properly feed. The use of SoilSyrup to boost organic
matter is a good practice for vegetable growing. It is not
practical to increase the organic matter content of soil with one
treatment, but after a few treatments with SoilSyrup, you'll see a
definite increase in the amount of organic matter in your
garden.
Many garden soils are low in organic matter because they contain
less than 5 percent organic matter. Soils that contain more than
20-28 percent clay (clay loams) and are low in organic matter tend
to be hard when dry and sticky when wet. Soils high in organic
matter are mellow (plant roots can penetrate easily) and absorb
water more readily than soils low in organic matter. The addition
of organic materials in the form of SoilSyrup improves the physical
properties of soils. And SoilSyrup can also help decompose
naturally occurring organic materials (chopped leaves or straw,
grass clippings), making essential plant nutrients available for
plant use.
Vegetable Growing Tip - Add generous amounts of
organic matter to your vegetable garden. SoilSyrup is the easy way to apply extra
organic material.
Vegetable Growing - Fertilizer
Using fertilizers as nutrient sources in vegetable
growing is one cultural practice that can improve production
if done correctly. This means using the right fertilizer material,
applying it at the correct rate and time, and using the proper
method of application.
Unless your garden soil is incredibly rich and fertile,
fertilizer is usually needed for proper vegetable growing. Most
vegetable gardeners find it convenient to use Algoflash, a balanced fertilizer that provides
key micro-nutrients. Fertilizers, like Algoflash should generally
be applied before or at planting time. The easiest way to apply
fertilizer is to broadcast, using a hose-end sprayer. Algoflash is a complete fertilizer that will
supply your vegetables with the proper levels of Nitrogen,
Phosphorus and Potassium for healthy growth.
To keep garden vegetables growing rapidly and continuously,
extra fertilizer should be applied to the soil in the form of a
side dressing. Side dressing can be applied on both sides of the
vegetable row about 4 to 6 inches from the plants using
Algoflash.
For plants that are widely spaced (such as cucumbers or
cantaloupe), the side dressing fertilizer can be placed in bands 6
inches from the plant's base. Vegetable plants should be side
dressed about midway through their maturity cycle except when grown
on sandy soils and during periods of excessive rainfall. These
conditions require more frequent side dressing applications. Also,
crops such as tomatoes, eggplant, and okra require two or three
side dressings per season because of their long growth cycles.
Some recommended times for side-dressing vegetables are as
follows:
Asparagus -- Early Spring before growth starts.
Beans and Peas -- Just before blooming.
Broccoli, Cabbage, Cauliflower --About four weeks after
transplanting.
Eggplant, Peppers, Squash, Tomatoes -- At blooming and when
fruit set starts.
Cucumbers, Cantaloupe, Watermelons -- As vines start to
run.
Vegetables that need high levels of nitrogen include sweet corn,
the cole crops, and leafy green vegetables. Onions also benefit
from additional nitrogen. By delaying the application until after
emergence, the crop benefits and weed stimulation is reduced.
Potatoes and tomatoes also respond to added nitrogen. Delaying the
application improves tuber set of potatoes and reduces excessive
vine growth of potatoes and tomatoes.
Vegetable Growing Tip - Iron chlorosis may
occur in some soils that contain excess lime and are compacted and
poorly drained. Beans and tomatoes are two crops that may show iron
chlorosis. Iron chlorosis can be identified by the interveinal
yellowing of leaves. The veins are green and the tissue between the
veins is yellow. At a distance of several feet, chlorotic plants
look very yellow. Using Algoflash and SoilSyrup will prevent iron
and zinc deficiencies in your vegetable garden!
Vegetable Growing Tip - Zinc deficiency
occasionally occurs when soils contain excess lime and are low in
organic matter. Sweet corn and beans are the most likely crops to
be affected.
Vegetable Growing Tip - Iron and zinc can be
applied as a foliar spray if needed. Foliar application of these
micro-nutrients can be effective if they are applied properly. It
is important to follow the directions on the container.
For smaller gardens, AquaSpikes
can be a great way to side dress vegetables while preventing weed
growth. AquaSpikes offer built-in weed control, because you're
watering your plants roots directly, it helps prevent weed growth
beside your favorite plants! You'll save lots of water as well,
because you won't lose a drop to evaporation or runoff!
Which is great for easier vegetable
growing!
Vegetable Growing - Watering
Make sure you provide sufficient drainage of excessive rainfall
from your plot, while arranging for irrigation during dry periods.
A garden takes about 75 gallons of water per 100 square feet
(taking evaporating losses into account). Frequency of watering
depends upon your soil type; sandy soils need water 2 or 3 times a
week.
You can conserve water by using AquaRocks, SoilSyrup or using AquaSpikes for direct root watering. If you
use a portable lawn sprinkler, be sure to keep the application rate
low enough that water does no run off the soil. Water applied too
fast will not soak into the soil. When watering, wet the soil to a
depth of 6 inches. As a general guide, the average house spigot
must be left running approximately 1 1/2 to 2 hours to apply 1 inch
of water to 1,000 square feet. Or you can use AquaRocks as an
inexpensive watering system. By cutting the tops off of 2-liter
bottles, you can easily fill the bottle with the hose. During dry
periods, vegetable gardens need extra watering. Most vegetables
benefit from an inch or more water each week, especially when they
are fruiting.
Vegetable Growing Tip - Weeds rob your
vegetables of water, light and root space. So use AquaSpikes for
direct root watering and to prevent weeds.
