We grow many vegetable and flower crops in seedlings, which allows us to get an earlier harvest. But it is very difficult to create ideal conditions: the lack of plants sunlight, dry air, drafts, untimely watering, soil and seeds may initially contain pathogenic microorganisms. These and other reasons often lead to depletion, and sometimes to the death of young seedlings, because it is most sensitive to adverse factors.
Thanks to the efforts of breeders in Lately The assortment of coniferous perennials was replenished with a number of unusual varieties with yellow needles.

Onions are a vegetable that is grown all over the world today, from the tropics to northern latitudes. In the plant community, it is distinguished by a significant diversity of species (500-600), but the most common is the bulb onion. It can be grown in several ways. Usually - in a 2-3 year old crop through the production of onion sets or a sample of large bulbs. Or as an annual crop - from seeds (nigella). In this article, we will talk about the seedling method of growing onions from seeds.
The calendar spring does not coincide with the garden spring, but it is March that is considered the official start of active work. Almost all the efforts of gardeners this month are focused on growing seedlings. Along with the increase in daylight hours, it is time to sow the best and original varieties of vegetables, berry crops and a variety of ornamental plants.

Luxurious tunbergia, which in Europe is called "black-eyed Susanna" - one of the brightest annual garden vines. These tropical plants so good at vertical gardening what about the ability to grow different types tunbergia in greenhouses and rooms are often forgotten. One plant has become a room star, the most spectacular of the shrub species - Thunbergia upright. Large and elegant funnel-shaped flowers and whole leaves give it a special nobility.
March madness - this is how those who grow seedlings of their favorite vegetables themselves perceive the first calendar month of spring. In March, they sow their favorite tomatoes and peppers, carry out the first crops in the greenhouse and even sow vegetables in the beds. Growing seedlings require not only timely diving, but also considerable care. But only her efforts are not limited. It is worth continuing to sow in greenhouses and on window sills, because fresh greens from the beds will not appear so soon.
While the buds have not yet woken up on the plants, or at the very beginning of growth, seedlings and delenki adapt much better. Although the main attention in March is still riveted to completely different plants - seasonal ones. Growing your own seedlings allows you to save money, find new varieties and ensure plant health. Moon calendar in March, for ornamental crops, it recommends choosing days more carefully, because unfavorable periods cover almost half a month.

In the month of March, most of the flowering annuals are sown, which need a seedling method of growing. Usually, these flowers take no more than 80-90 days from germination to flowering. In this article, I would like to focus on interesting annuals that are a little less popular than ageless petunias, marigolds or zinnias, but they have no less advantages. And they are also worth trying to plant for flowering next season.
Petunia is an unpretentious plant with bright flowers. Comes from the Solanaceae family. The name is derived from the Brazilian word "petun" - tobacco, since petunias and tobacco are related species.

Cod liver salad with rice - a delicious and easy recipe. There are as many recipes for cod liver salads as there are recipes for Olivier or herring under a fur coat.

The taste of apples determines the sugar and acid content. apples of the same variety in different climatic zones may have different sugar content.
In warm, sunny regions, apples accumulate more sugars. So, southern apples contain up to 10 - 11 percent sugar, while in the middle lane - 8 - 9 percent.
But also some Central Russian apple trees have an increased sugar content of up to 12.5 percent.
Attention! The sweetness of apples is reflected not only in the sugar content, but also in the amount of acid. And not even the content of sugar and acid determine the sweetness of an apple, but their ratio, which is called the sugar-acid coefficient.

- Fruit ripening and harvesting good harvest interfere with pests of fruits that devour the pulp of apples. This does not threaten the health of the tree, but an uncultivated garden can bring much less than a full-fledged harvest to its owner.
- Garden aphid species feed on plant sap and cause significant harm to both the plant itself and future fruiting.
