Description
"What's wrong with my [FILL IN THE BLANK]?" "I water it routinely, it’s fertilized on a six week cycle, I prune it religiously and it’s not thriving!
Jack, Lynne and Matt McFarland hear this ALL. THE. TIME. In fact, the correlation between over-caring for your plant materials and their failure to thrive is a strong one.
On this episode of The Growing Season, the McFarland's guide you through the ins and outs of "Overs," as in over-watering, over-pruning, over-fertilizing and over-salting.
What are some simple guidelines for fertilizing your plant materials? What does stress from overdoing it look like and I can I correct it?
The trio discuss plants that are "over-tolerant" and how to design a garden with these plants in mind.
