    Keep track of your garden by creating and maintaining a planting calendar. A planting calendar can make your gardening experience more efficient because you will have a plan for each season. It can be helpful to prepare in advance so you know which seeds to buy and when. You can create your planting calendar in many popular computer programs, or simply jot one down on paper.

    In a tiny garden, try planting a small fruit tree. The dwarf tree is a great option where space for a garden is limited, especially in the city. Don't expect your trees to start bearing their full sized fruit until about 3 to 5 years from the time you plant them. Plant dormant trees in the ground in early spring, and keep them well-watered until established.

    Certain houseplants may need to be repotted, while other plants do not respond well when their roots are disturbed. You can easily find out which plants need to be re-potted by turning each plant upside down, then tapping the pot until the plant frees itself from the pot and drops out. If you see roots crowding the dirt the plant grows in, you will need to put the plant in a larger pot. Your plant will not need to be re-potted if you can see very few, if any, roots poking out.

    The approach of fall means you need to start planting autumn goodies. Why not plant lettuce and kale inside a hollowed-out pumpkin? First, cut out the pumpkin's top layer and remove the seeds. Then, spray some Wilt-Pruf on the insides to prevent the rot that would follow otherwise. After this is completed, it is time to plant!

    Snails can be sprayed away with a mixture of ammonia and water. Ammonia will turn to nitrogen later, which will benefit your plants. This method is harmless for your plants by lethal for snails. For best results you're going to want to use this mixture daily.

    Increase your property value with landscaping. Landscaping can make the value of your property go up. Strategic landscaping can increase the resale value of your home up to 20%, if you choose the right plants. You should purchase plants that are well-suited to your landscape and environmental conditions.

    Place a few inches of organically based mulch around your vegetable plants. Mulch will retain water so that you won't have to water your plants as often. It will also prevent weeds from growing. This could save you lots of weed-pulling time.

    Keep your clay plots bright and clean by removing salt deposits with a solution of rubbing alcohol, water and vinegar. As plants grow inside clay pots, they deposit salt on the outside of the pot. Make a solution with equal parts rubbing alcohol, water and white vinegar. Spray this on clay pots where salt deposits have built up. Once you do this, use a cleaning brush made of plastic to scrub this combination, and you'll discover the salt melting away. Just rinse the pot out after this and you should be on your way.

    A number of houseplants need to be repotted, while others are not happy about their roots being tinkered with. It's fairly simple to find out which plant does or doesn't need re-potting. It's all done by simply turning the pot upside down and tapping the bottom un-tilt he plant falls free. If the root structure is pushing out against the edges of the soil, you should transfer the plant to a larger pot. Little to no roots means the pot is perfect for the time being.

    Gardening can be highly rewarding and a wonderful experience. With simple education, you can easily develop your gardening craft. It is wise to heed every good piece of advice you are given. Start by using the tips you learned in this article and you can have a better garden than you ever dreamed possible.
