Your Plant Questions, Clearly Answered
Looking to keep your garden green and growing? We’ve gathered the most common plant care questions to help you water, prune, and protect your plants with confidence.
How often should I water my plants?
Most plants do well with deep watering 2–3 times per week rather than light watering every day. The exact frequency depends on the plant type, soil, and weather conditions. Always check the top inch of soil—if it’s dry, it’s time to water.
What’s the best time of day to water the garden?
Early morning (before 9 a.m.) is ideal. This gives plants time to absorb moisture before the sun gets too strong. Avoid watering in the evening as it can lead to damp leaves overnight, increasing the risk of fungal diseases.
How do I know if a plant is getting too much sun or not enough?
Plants getting too much sun often show scorched, faded, or curling leaves. Plants without enough sunlight may look leggy, with pale or yellowing leaves, and grow slower than usual. Observe their growth and adjust the plant’s placement for balanced light.
What kind of soil should I use for different types of plants?
Different plants thrive in different soils: vegetables usually prefer well-draining loamy soil, cacti and succulents need sandy mixes, while flowers and shrubs often do best in nutrient-rich garden soil. Matching soil type to plant needs helps them grow stronger.
How can I naturally prevent pests in my garden?
Encourage beneficial insects like ladybugs, use companion planting (such as basil near tomatoes), and keep your garden clean of fallen leaves or debris. Sprays made from neem oil or garlic can also deter pests without harming your plants.
What should I do with my plants during the dry or rainy season?
In dry seasons, water deeply and mulch around plants to keep soil moist. During rainy seasons, improve drainage, avoid overwatering, and protect sensitive plants from waterlogging. Adjust care according to weather changes to keep plants healthy.
