  Gardening is known by most people to be a relaxing and therapeutic hobby. Getting the right kind of soil and knowing when to start planning are two important parts of gardening. The following article provides answers to many of the questions that are asked by gardeners of all skill levels.
  
  Keep your clay plots bright and clean by removing salt deposits with a solution of rubbing alcohol, water and vinegar. When you have plants inside of a clay pot, there can be salt deposits that will build up over time. Spray a solution on the pot that is comprised of water, white vinegar and rubbing alcohol in equal parts. Once you do this, use a cleaning brush made of plastic to scrub this combination, and you'll discover the salt melting away. Make sure you properly rinse your pot, and dry it before you plant anything in it.
  
  Get every last drop of value from your land. Landscaping can make the value of your property go up. Certain plants could increase the value by 20%. Try to find plants that are relatively low-moisture plants, suited well to your particular environment. This will add a lot of value to your property.
  
  Broad-spectrum pesticides are really not the optimal choice for pest control in your garden. These kinds of pesticides kill the helpful insects that destroy the pests. Beneficial insects are more susceptible to strong pesticides than the insects you are actually trying to get rid of. This will lead you to end up killing off the good bugs in your garden, leaving the field wide open for the harmful ones. This will cause a cycle to start where you will need to keep increasing the amount of pesticide you are using.
  
  Shoveling clay soil is tiresome since clay is hard, and it can also stick to your shovel for twice the difficulty. Use a thin coat of floor or car wax on your shovel, then buff it with a nice clean cloth to make dealing with clay soil easier. The clay easily slides off the surface while keeping the end from getting rusty.
  
  Read instructions before using any gardening tool you aren't familiar with, including pesticides or other chemicals. Use the tools only as directed in the instructions. If you fail to follow the directions, you expose yourself to safety hazards or a risk of experiencing adverse reactions. Be careful when it comes to your body, and always follow directions.
  
  Gardening is a great hobby that can help a family with children to bond with one another. Children will enjoy being able to choose different plants to grow. They think it is amazing to be given permission to get dirty and especially to get dirty together with their parents.
  
  Certain houseplants may need to be repotted, while other plants do not respond well when their roots are disturbed. An easy way to test which plants require re-potting is to flip them over and tap on the pot until the moment the plant falls out with ease. If a lot of roots are visible, use a new pot. On the other hand, if only a minuscule amount of roots are showing or none at all, then your plant will be all right in the pot it was already in.
  
  You don't want to pick vegetables during the day when it is hot, as that is when they are prone to damage due to them being softer. See to it that you cut their connection to the vine as opposed to twisting them, because twisting could hurt the plant.
  
  Gardening gives you instant access to all of your favorite fresh fruits and vegetables. You can be proud that you used fruits and veggies that you grew in your meals. If you apply the advice you have learned here, you can get the most from your garden.
