栀子叶色亮绿,四季常青,花大洁白,芳香馥郁,又有一定耐荫和抗有毒气体的能力,故为良好的绿化、美化、香化的材料,可成片丛植或配置于林缘、庭前、庭隅、路旁,植作花篱也极适宜,作阳台绿化、盆花、切花或盆景都十分适宜,也可用于街道和厂矿绿化。下面来看看盆栽栀子花的养殖七要素吧。
第一 选择适宜的盆土选择适宜的盆土。栀子花是喜酸性花卉,适宜的pH值为5至6。如果土壤酸度不适宜,将会在今后的管理中事倍功半。栽培用土可选腐叶土、泥炭土或沤制锯屑加一半的园土,忌用陈墙土和煤渣,用市售的君子兰土更加方便实用。 第二 合理施肥合理施肥。栀子花喜肥。在培养土中可加入3%腐熟饼肥作基肥。生长季节用饼肥加硫酸亚铁沤制的矾肥水每周浇一次,也可用0.1%腐殖酸全营养有机液肥。现蕾期浇1次至2次0.1%磷酸二氢钾水溶液,可使花朵肥大、花香浓郁。酷暑期气温35℃以上和秋季15℃以下时停肥。 第三多晒太阳多晒太阳。栀子喜光,长期在半阴处也能生长,但花枝较长,花朵较少。除7月至8月中午强光需遮阴和冬季休眠期外,一般都需放阳光下养护,才能花繁叶茂。 第四 科学浇水科学浇水。栀子花喜湿润的土壤和较大的空气湿度。在4月至9月生长期要保持盆土湿润。盆土表面见干就浇水,晚上可用喷壶向叶面淋水浇施。如干透萎蔫,会对生长不利。生长过旺、节间较长的,晚上不浇水,早上太阳出来再浇水。北方碱性水地区,自来水要放两天再用。每隔三五日,用每升中加入0.5克柠檬酸、1克硫酸亚铁的水溶液浇透水一次,可使叶片油润碧绿。 第五 冬季休眠好冬季休眠好。栀子花在我国秦岭一带可露地越冬,但盆栽栀子经严冬后根系会受损害,春季恢复慢。而在有供暖的室内越冬,虽不受冻害,但光照不足,生长瘦弱,秋季形成的幼蕾大多脱落,第二年开花晚。较好的办法是将盆花放在5℃左右的冷室使其休眠,或用泡沫塑料等保温材料将花盆包裹好,保护好根系,放在背风向阳处越冬,春季恢复快,开花早。
第六 适当修剪适当修剪。大花栀子小苗在主干20厘米高处打去顶尖,留3个至4个分枝,分枝2对叶片时再打去顶尖,促发分枝,以后可任其生长。小叶栀子不需打顶。每年开花后轻修剪,剪去内膛枝、病弱枝,个别徒长枝短截。大花栀子4年至5年后冠幅太大时,可于花后进行强修剪,一般将上部分枝留2对叶短截,出芽后抹去向内生长的芽和主干下部的芽,株形会变得更紧凑美观。切记栀子花春季不可短截枝顶,否则当年不会开花。 第七 适时换盆土适时换盆土。小苗用小盆栽,逐渐换入大盆。当冠幅为盆口径的2倍至3倍时,就该换盆了。生长季节随时可换。倒盆后连土坨栽入新盆,口径较原盆大5厘米左右为宜。家庭盆栽当盆达到28厘米左右时,一般不再换盆而只换盆土。于春季3月换土较好。倒盆后剪去部分老根,抖掉一半旧土,用新土栽入盆中后浇透水,放温暖半阴处,有新芽萌动时放阳光下养护。 大叶栀子花怎么养 北方养护大叶栀子常因气候、土壤等条件不适宜其生长发育,而引起大叶栀子叶片变黄甚至全株死亡。为此北方养护大叶栀子,须掌握好以下几点。 大叶栀子对土壤的要求比较严格,在pH5-6的酸性土壤中生长良好,而北方的土壤一般呈中性或碱性,在这种土壤中,由于铁盐的水解,形成不溶于水的氢氧化铁,不能为植物吸收,造成植物严重缺铁。铁虽然不是叶绿素的成分,但系叶绿素形成的必要条件,所以缺铁就等于阻断了叶绿素的合成,因而使光合作用不能正常进行,这就造成植株饥饿死亡的主要原因。 另外铁又是某些氧化酶的成分,在呼吸中还起到重要作用。如果缺铁,即会影响植株的正常生理活动。解决缺铁症,采用浇“矾肥水”的办法能收到良好的效果。除此之外,也可在盆土中掺入少量黑矾粉末,用量为盆土重量的0.5%,生长季节每隔10-15天浇一次0.5%-1.0%的黑矾水,也能保证栀子花对铁的要求,使其能够正常生长发育。 北方土壤多呈中性或偏碱性,导致土壤中缺乏可供植株利用的铁元素,这是引起叶片变黄的主要原因之一。为此,培养大叶栀子要选用肥沃的酸性培养土。一般可用腐叶土4份、园土4份、沙土2份混合配制。再按每千克培养土拌人1~2克硫磺粉。浇大叶栀子宜用雨水或经过发酵的淘米水。生长期间每隔10~15天浇一次0.2%硫酸亚铁水或每隔10~15天施一次矾肥水(两者可相间进行)。这样既能防止土壤变碱,又能及时给土壤补充铁元素,从而防止叶子变黄。 叶栀子喜湿润,除平时需经常保持盆土湿润外,还必须经常注意增加空气湿度。这是因为北方气候与南方不同,北方春季干燥,常刮干旱风,夏季光照强度大,天气炎热,冬季寒冷干燥。因此,春、夏季节每天早晚要用清水喷洒叶面并向附近地面洒水,以增加空气湿度。冬季浇水宜少,但仍需经常喷洗枝叶,保持叶面洁净。 大叶栀子喜光照,但怕强光曝晒。如遭曝晒,则叶子发黄、发白直至脱落。所以,夏季须放在荫棚下或具有散射光的地方培养,让其早、晚见些阳光,以免叶子变黄。大叶栀子不耐寒,要注意适期人室和出室,一般于10月中旬入室,放向阳处,室温保持在10℃一12℃为宜。翌春不宜过早出室,通常于4月下旬出室为好。如果能做到以上四点,大叶栀子不仅能在北方安家,而且叶绿花繁并具浓香。 以上就是小编为您介绍的盆栽栀子花怎么养,希望能够帮助到您。

香椿含有极丰富的营养。据分析,每100克香椿头中,含蛋白质9.8克、含钙143毫克、含维生素C115毫克,都列蔬菜中的前茅。另外,还含磷135毫克、胡萝卜素1.36毫克,以及铁和B族维生素等营养物质。可用于制作香椿炒鸡蛋、香椿竹笋、香椿拌豆腐、潦香椿、煎香椿饼、椿苗拌三丝、椒盐香椿鱼、香椿鸡脯、香椿豆腐肉饼、香椿皮蛋豆腐、香椿拌花生、凉拌香椿、腌香椿、冷拌香椿头。既然香椿如此受用,那么小编就来教教大家香椿芽的种植方法。
1、种子的准备 香椿品种较多,常为人们食用的有红油香椿、紫油香椿和绿椿,其中紫油香椿的种粒大而饱满,发芽率高,是生产籽芽香椿的最佳品种。香椿种子呈三角形、半圆形或菱形,红褐色,一端有膜质长翅。千粒重为10一11克。香椿种子发芽率的高低与香椿树龄的长短有很大的关系,30年以上树龄的香椿种子生命力极弱,发芽率仅为5%一10%,成活率更低,芽菜生产上以10一25年树龄的香椿树种子为宜。 香椿种子的贮藏期较短,在常温条件下半年就开始降低发芽率,一年全部丧失,因此生产籽芽香椿时,用种量要根据生产能力和自己的需要量一次购足。为保持较高的发芽率,备足的种子应在4―5℃的冷库或冷凉通风处保存,才可保证四季用种。 香椿种子的膜质长翅是种子维持生命的一个重要组成部分,贮藏期间不能除去,否则影响发芽率。因此,香椿芽生产中宜选用未过夏的新种子,切忌使用隔年陈种。香椿种子在浸种前要进行清选,把种子放在口袋中轻轻揉搓,然后吹或扇去膜质长翅,筛除果梗、果壳,拣去混在种子中的各种杂质。根据生产量的要求计算好用种量,清洗干净后先淘洗2―3次再进行浸种,水温20―30℃,水量是种子体积的2―3倍。香椿种子发芽所需最适浸种时间为24小时,其相对吸水量为120.2%。 浸种期间最好换一次水,洗去种皮上的粘液,以利于提高发芽速度。浸种结束后捞出种子,沥去多余的水分等待播种。
2、播种和催芽:播种和催芽是芽菜栽培中减少烂种、提高芽苗整齐度、保证产品质量的关键环节,播种要均匀,每盘的播种量要一致。香椿种子因发芽较慢,催芽要分两段进行,所以播种也得分两次进行: 第一段催芽播种量为每盘750一1000克,催芽温度为20―23℃,催芽时间为3―4天。催芽方式、方法及管理与豌豆苗相似。待幼芽露白、芽长1―2mm后及时进行第二次播种和叠盘催芽, 第二段催芽。注意种芽不可过长,否则第二次播种时易受伤害。播种前可再将种子用清水淘洗干净,以减少种子在第二段催芽期间的霉烂。第二段催芽的方法和管理与豌豆苗相似,在此期间要求温度在20―23℃,催芽时间5―6天,每盘的播种量为40一50克。待香椿芽长0.5―1.0厘米时及时出盘,摆在栽培架上进行生产管理。香椿芽生产所用的基质可以是干净的珍珠岩,也可以直接用白棉布或新闻纸。如用珍珠岩作基质,先将苗盘洗净后铺一层新闻纸,将香椿种子均匀播种后再平铺一层3厘米左右厚的珍珠岩。用珍珠岩作基质进行香椿芽生产的,在管理上需要的是减少浇水量。

黄杨盆景,由于其生长缓慢,一年四季蓊郁青翠、茂盛结实,在众多树种的盆景中,尽管无高档花草那样太多奢华、张扬之势,却以稳健厚重风格与阳刚秉性征服观赏者,让广大盆景爱好者青睐有加,奉为盆景树种中的上品。枝叶繁茂,叶形别致,四季常青,常用于绿篱、花坛和盆栽,修剪成各种形状,是点缀小庭院和入口处的好材料。
雀舌黄杨盆景养护方法 充足的阳光和水分雀舌黄杨盆景的摆放,最好能选择在“上午能晒阳,下午较阴凉,空气流通好,雨露靠自然”的地方为佳。如果室内观赏最好十天半月后让它又去日晒雨淋。 雀舌黄杨盆景的盆内,要经常保持湿润,这是因为它根部的吸收和叶面的光合作用及整个生长过程,都需要大量的水分,当然需求量也是随季节气候的变化而变化的。雀舌黄杨从江河溪流边到了园内的小盆子里生长,环境的最大变化,是环境的湿度小了,这就要靠我们的养护给它适时适量的补充。所以浇水要注意气候,要讲究技术,要保证质量。温度20℃以上,盆内又缺水时,浇水分三步: 第一步,冲干不动土(满足盆内需水量); 第二步,枝叶要湿透(多角度浇); 第三步,喷雾。 暑天或温度在20℃以上,盆内不缺水,就按第二、第三步浇;温度在20℃以下10℃以上,盆内又不缺水,冬天上午在阳光下,一天一次都按第三步浇水。秋天“白露”以后,等露水干了,按第三步喷水。霜天早晚不浇水;“三九天”寒潮来之前不浇水以防冻土,冻枝叶,同样要保持盆内滤水通气好。 薄肥勤施雀舌黄杨的肥要坚持以蔸肥为主,以自然肥为主,以人畜粪便为主。慎施鸡鸭粪和高效肥,切记不能施没有腐熟的肥和过量施肥,要做到薄肥勤施。在季节变换前施点季节肥,如初春施催芽肥,夏天施壮叶肥,暑天施抗温肥,冬天施保温肥;每次修剪后施点补尝肥,雨季和暑天盆内过水多施点补充肥,长势不好的要施酌情肥。 造型以剪为主雀舌黄杨的木质坚硬而脆,枝条皮薄易伤,可塑性不大,所以首先要注意选桩,然后因树制宜,因势利导,造型必须以修剪为主。也可适当用绳捆索拉,枝条变位大的要几次到位,即不能苛求,也不能急于求成,否则会适得其反。忌用锈铁丝绞枝条,一防伤皮,二防死枝。
雀舌黄杨盆景主干长势特慢,非常苍劲,但嫩枝条长得较快,叶的密度必然拉长,就显得软散,惟有用“摘心”来控制,才能保证观赏价值。就是在枝条没有木质化之前,留一对,最多两对嫩叶片,其余摘掉或剪掉,在适当的水,肥等条件下,十天半月它就会发出两个嫩芽来。就这样周而复始,它的枝条显得短而粗,叶片可以2的积数倍增,不断提高观赏价值。再就是要及时摘除花苞。雀舌黄杨在夏秋之前就开始有花苞了,春天开花,花果所需营养要占全树的70%-80%,这样必然影响它正常生长和美观,我们是以观叶为主。所以必然从见花苞开始,就要把它摘除。 换盆需剪短多数根系雀舌黄杨是肉质细根,它的水分和营养吸收主要是根部尖端的吸收功能,与根臂的长短是次要的。根留长了,在盆内不能舒展。弯曲揉折是十分有害的。而且,根尖为了吸收营养,自然的会向前延伸,接触新土。根留长了,不要好久,根尖就会碰壁,虽然根尖是会转向的,但要费力费时,影响生长。特别是盆壁和盆底很快又会串满了根,形成无土的“根板”,又要换盆。这样就形成了恶性循环。带土换盆的(不宜多带土)要剪去露在土面的长根。换盆的最佳季节,一是初春(定根后就可以萌芽)。二是暑天长势旺盛季节(换盆后在阴凉处摆上七八天,又会恢复旺势)。 防治卷叶蛾的幼虫卷叶蛾的幼虫最喜欢吸吮黄杨的叶汁,卷叶虫出世后吐出丝能将周围的叶片卷曲一团,它躲在中间吸吮叶液,两三天它就将卷曲叶的汁液吸完,留下的是白色的叶脉网络了,这时它又转移行害了,不及时捕杀,五六天后它会将所有的叶片破坏掉。不仅破坏了美观,而且长势不好的会因此死亡。卷叶虫只要一般“吸杀”、“触杀”的农药都能消灭它,贵在及时发现及时扑灭。值得注意的是,卷叶蛾的卵,在暑天,特别是温度在30℃以上时,只要三四天就能孵化成作害的小虫,换代最快。所以温度高时,一周能捕杀一次为好。 以上就是小编为您介绍的雀舌黄杨盆景图片及养护方法,希望能够帮助到您。

珍珠黄杨是黄杨科黄杨属的常绿小灌木。高不过五尺,粗不盈握,盖因山风寒烈,非千百年不易长成,主干灰褐色,分枝密集;叶小呈紫红、黄绿色,对生,厚革质,有光泽,卵圆形,形似一片片鱼鳞;雌雄同株,花期4月,蒴果8月成熟。该种叶片细密、枝干苍劲、树姿优美、自然成型等诸多特点,是制作盆景、点缀山石、建造袖珍园林的上好材料,自古就与金雀、迎春、绒针柏并称为盆景树种“四大家”。下面来了解下珍珠黄杨盆景图片及养护方法吧。
一:上盆——避免夏日暴晒 珍珠黄杨上盆四季均可进行,以植株休眠期或梅雨期最佳。上盆的土壤以腐殖土、稻田土或山泥等为主,土壤以微酸、中性或微碱为宜。如对您当地的土壤不太满意,可以植株所带土壤配以三分之一兰花土或蛭石、泥炭等拌和使用。同时可先在土中适当加上少量豆饼或豆屑等,任其在土中发酵挥发成为迟效型养料,使植株缓慢受益。地栽的植株根系十分发达,上盆时可适当剪去部分主根,须根太多也可抽去一些,不要团缩在盆内。上盆时,先在花盆底孔处固定筛网或瓦片,然后放入植株,填入培养土并浇透水份。夏季换盆后起初应放置在荫凉通风的地方。春秋季节则应给予较多光照。 二:浇水——不干不浇,浇则浇透 浇水是珍珠黄杨盆栽养护的主要措施。植株上盆后应浇足或浸透水份,以后可掌握不干不浇、浇(浸)则浇透的原则。所谓干,是指土壤表面开始呈干白状态,而非彻底干透。树木栽植于盆中,泥土总是有限的,所含水分也是有限的,如长期不进行水分补充,树木就会因缺水而掉叶乃至枯萎。一般来说,珍珠黄杨在室内放置时,浇水不需过勤,若浇水过勤,盆土长期过湿,又缺乏通风和充分光照,则易引起根部缺氧而腐烂;同时浇水的次数应根据季节变化、天气冷暖和土壤的透水性而定。浇水可以叶面喷水,也可以根部灌水或连盆浸泡数分钟,注意不要浇“半截水”造成盆面湿、盆内干的现象。如经常外出不便浇水,可视花盆大小,用2-3根棉纱或绒线,将一端从底孔穿入盆内,另一端浸入盆、杯或其他容器内,根据水的自吸原理进行供水。冬季水份蒸发较慢,浸入水中1-2根即可,夏季可适当增加,具体可根据您所在地区的气候条件决定。 三:放置与保护——适当光照 珍珠黄杨为喜荫树种,室内放置以通气透光处为佳。在夏季高温高湿条件下,最好能选择早晚和阴雨天,适当置于户外或阳台。长期荫蔽并通风不畅,易使植株枝叶软弱。珍珠黄杨耐寒性较强,可耐零下20度左右严寒,但对晚秋或早春萌发新枝的植株则应注意保温,最好置于室内,以防产生冻害。
四:施肥——精肥淡施 盆景的盆钵内土壤是有限的,因而养分也有限,应注意肥料的补充。但珍珠黄杨生长较为缓慢,施肥不需太多、太频繁,每年以初春和入秋两次为宜。珍珠黄杨盆栽施肥以氮为主,一般20cm蓬径的植株,可用黄豆20粒左右或豆饼浸泡并充分腐熟后兑水施入盆土中。施用其他液体肥料注意不可过浓,以免伤根,刚上盆和新翻盆的植株不宜急于施肥。 五:修剪——掌握季节 珍珠黄杨分蘖性极强,随处都有新芽萌发的可能,如任其自然生长,不加抑制,势必影响树姿造型而降低其观赏价值。所以要适时修剪,以保持优美的树姿和适当的比例。但切记:修枝应在秋季植株进入休眠期以后进行。除刚萌发的嫩枝外,盛夏生长期修剪易导致枝稍萎缩。 摘心:对生长过快的树枝,为抑制其高生长,促使侧技发育平展,可摘去其技梢嫩头。摘除花蕾:对于树龄较长的植株,每年8-9月份以后,在其枝干或枝端往往会生出一些珠形的花蕾,如过多,应随时摘去生在枝茎的部分,枝端处留着赏花。这样可避免消耗太多养分,保证植株枝叶繁茂。修枝:珍珠黄杨常在干基上生出新枝条,为保持其造型美观,须注意适当去除。修技方式应根据树形来决定,如为云片状造型,则将枝条修剪成平整状。一般有碍美观的枯枝、平行枝、交叉技等,应予剪去。 六:翻盆——无须太勤 珍珠黄杨根系发达,修剪后新根的萌发力很强,在盆中生长一年以后,须根就能够密布盆底。如数年不翻盆并修剪老根,浇水难以渗透和排出,肥料也不易吸收,将影响植株的正常生长,这时就应考虑翻盆换土。翻盆可用原盆或换稍大一号的盆,根据树木大小来决定。换土可改善土壤的通气透水性,增加土壤养分,有利植株健壮生长,提高其观赏效果。修剪老根则可促使新根萌发,提高根系活力,利于养分吸收。珍珠黄杨换盆所用的土壤和方法与上盆大体相同,翻盆时间可根据以下几方面决定:一般微型盆景每隔1-2年翻盆一次,中盆景2-3年翻盆一次,大盆景4年左右翻盆一次。翻盆可根据根部生长情况来决定,当盆土不干不湿时,将盆倒翻过来,用手拍打盆底,使树木连土带根全部倒出来,检查土块板结情况以及根系分布情况,如土块板结、根系密布土块底面,则说明必须翻盆。翻盆时间四季均可进行,以选择初夏新枝萌发后或梅雨期为最佳。 七:病虫害防治——见了再说 珍珠黄杨除春夏两季偶有可见得的黄杨绢野螟外,少有其他虫害。危害症状为局部叶片变黄,发现后只要及时捉除或以敌百虫等普通农药喷施即可。珍珠黄杨病害发生,参照瓜子黄杨的病害特点,如叶面出现黑色斑点、小枝枯萎等症状,有可能是枝枯病或叶斑病,可用多菌灵、代森猛辛等广普杀菌剂溶液间隔5-7天连续喷洒3-4次。 八:珍珠黄杨叶片颜色四季各异,休眠期多光照可使叶色变红,否则仍会保持绿色。 以上就是小编为您介绍的珍珠黄杨盆景图片及养护方法,希望能够帮助到您。

Cucumbers have become a common staple in many kitchens due to their wide array of uses. They can be pickled, eaten raw or added to sandwiches and healthy green smoothies. Lemon cucumbers do not look like traditional cucumbers. They are bright yellow, baseball-sized, round and similar in appearance to lemons. Since lemon cucumbers mature faster than traditional cucumbers, they are good plants to grow in large pots fitted with a small trellis for support. Step 1 Prepare the 15-inch pot at least one month before using. Fill the pot with equal parts vegetable potting soil and aged manure and then cover with black plastic sheeting. Place the pot outdoors in full sun so the black plastic has ample time to warm the potting soil. Lemon cucumbers, as well as all other cucumber varieties, do not like cool soil.
Step 2 Pour seed-starting mix into two or more 3-inch peat containers. You may use more or fewer peat containers according to how big you wish your lemon cucumber container garden to be. Put the peat containers on top of a tray or two or plates. The containers need something underneath them to catch the draining water. Step 3 Push two lemon cucumber seeds into the soil of each container, spacing them 1 inch apart. Cover with soil mix and water until wet. Move the container and trays to a warm area until the lemon cucumber seeds sprout, keeping the soil damp. Step 4 Remove the black sheeting from the outdoor container when temperatures rise above 70 degrees Fahrenheit. Dig into the soil in the 15-inch container with a garden spade to create a hole large enough to hold the 3-inch peat container. Step 5 Insert the peat container into the planting hole and push the soil firmly to secure the pot into the dirt. Water the lemon cucumber plant and insert a round, wire cucumber cage to support the growing plant. Provide the cucumber plant water daily since containers lose more moisture than in-ground plants.
Step 6 Dilute fish emulsion with equal amounts of water and pour into a spray bottle. Spray the solution onto the growing lemon cucumber plant one or two times every month.

Companion planting is the practice of planting certain vegetables next to one another to maximize positive effects of each plant. For example, basil is a good companion plant for tomatoes because it camouflages the tomato scent, thus protecting it from predatory insects. But just as some plants have a positive impact on each other, some plants negatively affect each other and should be planted in different parts of your garden. Tomatoes
Tomato is one of the most popular garden vegetables, but it is not always a good companion. Cauliflower, peas, corn and broccoli are just a few vegetables that get a negative effect from its tomato plant neighbors. Many times vegetables don't grow well together because they compete for the same nutrients. In other cases, such as tomatoes and corns, both attract worms that thrive in similar habitats. Fennel and potatoes have a negative effect on tomatoes. Strawberries
Strawberries are a popular addition to many vegetable gardens, but they are not always a positive addition. Broccoli, cabbage, cauliflower and Brussels sprouts should not be planted with strawberries. The fruit plant uses great amounts of nitrogen and phosphorus from the soil, depleting the nutrients the other plants need. When plants compete for the same nutrients, one or the other -- sometimes both -- do not thrive. Beans and Potatoes
Avoid planting root crops such as potatoes next to other root crops -- they compete for nutrients at the same depth. Other vegetables negatively affected by growing next to potatoes are zucchini, tomatoes, summer squash and pumpkins. Those plants require more watering, while potatoes require less watering. If over watered, plant tubers began to rot and attract bugs that are harmful to the other plants. Beans naturally adjust nitrogen levels in soil, so avoid planting near plants, such as broccoli, onions and kohlrabi that thrive when planted in soil with a higher nitrogen content. Organic Myth or Real Science? Though gardeners have been practicing companion planting for centuries, there's no specific scientific data proving that the method makes your garden plants thrive. Gardening expert Louise Riotte writes that companion planting is something the scientific community is beginning to take a closer look at the gardening practice. But companion planting is more than just folklore. Organic gardeners who use companion planting stand firm that mutual benefit of certain plants, such as tomato and basil, keep pests at bay and increases garden production. Companion planting also uses scientific methods by relying on plants such as beans to fix nitrogen levels in soil.

Broccoli is a cool-season brassica (related to cauliflower and other cole crops) that prefers temperatures between 65 and 75 degrees Fahrenheit. It matures quickly, allowing gardeners to grow it in both spring and fall. To get a head start on spring planting, however, broccoli seeds are sown indoors, then transplanted into the garden after the last annual frost date, following a brief hardening-off period.
Step 1 Select a sunny indoor location, such as a greenhouse or a south-facing window that receives several hours of sunlight. Alternately, purchase a grow-light. Most regular indoor lights are not sufficient to grow broccoli indoors. Step 2 Purchase or mix your own seed starting soil, or seedling soil mix. This mix should be light, well-draining, and fertile. If making your own, include compost both for fertility and to ensure the mix has a light, well-draining texture. Step 3 Fill a seedling tray with seed starter soil. If you will be growing the broccoli indoors for a long time, and are concerned about insufficient room for the roots as the broccoli ages, sow seeds in pots instead. The optimum depth is about a quarter inch, spacing about 3 inches apart. Step 4 Moisten the soil with a water spray bottle to prevent moving the seeds around or flushing them. Keep soil evenly moist until germination, and keep soil temperatures closer to 75 degrees for fastest germination. After germination, temperatures are more favorable closer to 60 degrees.
Step 5 Transplant to the garden or to the final growing area when broccoli has four to five true leaves, roughly four to six weeks after planting seeds. The first two leaves that broccoli produces during germination are not true leaves. Step 6 Grow broccoli to maturity indoors only if you have a growing area that receives at least six hours of direct sunlight every day, or with grow lights timed to provide at least six hours of light per day. Each broccoli plant will need approximately three feet of growing space for a large head, less for a smaller head that is harvested twice. Ensure that broccoli has at least 6 to 12 inches of soil depth for roots to grow in, or grow broccoli hydroponically according to your hydroponic system specifications.

Shallots have a delicate and slightly sweet taste similar to both onions and garlic. Since purchasing market shallots tends to be expensive, gardeners are discovering the ease and simplicity of growing shallots themselves. Shallots offer the grower an inexpensive way to have a ready supply of this onion relative for a fraction of the store price. Shallots grow in a similar fashion to garlic. Gardeners are able to move shallots grown in containers to different locations to protect them from excessive heat.
Step 1 Prepare the shallot containers four to six weeks before the last frost. One shallot clove grows comfortably in a container 6 inches in diameter. The containers must have adequate drainage holes in the bottom. If the containers do not, use a drill bit on a power drill to make the required drainage holes. Step 2 Fill the containers with a mixture containing equal parts potting soil and leaf mold. Substitute bagged compost, sold at garden centers, for the leaf mold if the organic matter is unavailable. Step 3 Separate the individual shallot cloves from the larger shallot bulb with gentle pressure from your thumb.
Step 4 Insert one shallot clove, root-end downward, into the potting mixture. Plant the clove shallowly so the tip is level with the soil. Shallot cloves buried too deeply under the soil find it difficult to produce sprouts strong enough to break through. Step 5 Transport the shallot containers to an area in full sun. Shallots prefer full sun but also thrive in partial shade if the afternoon heat of summer becomes extreme. Step 6 Water the shallot cloves with a gentle spray to avoid displacing the soil and exposing more clove than necessary. Continue to water the shallots once per day to avoid the soil from drying out. Step 7 Feed the shallots a diluted solution of general fertilizer during the middle of the growing season, following package instructions. Most fertilizer guidelines instruct you to use equal parts fertilizer and water for proper dilution. Step 8 Harvest the shallots when the green foliage has yellowed and wilted over. Scoop the shallot bulbs out of the soil by using your hands or a garden fork to raise them above the dirt.

Onions are a popular home vegetable garden plant. Like all vegetables, they may eventually go bad if not stored properly. The proper storage method for your onions depends on where they come from, particularly whether you've purchased them from the grocery store or grown them yourself. Storing onions in the fridge is just one option.
Before Storing Onions should be dried or cured before they go into storage to prevent rot. This can be done in any location that is dry, warm and well-ventilated, like a garage or outdoor patio, and takes two to three weeks. The tops, or green part of the onion, should be cut off about 1 inch above the onion and discarded, and any onions that are rotten should be thrown out. If you intend to braid the onions, the tops can be left on. Storing Onions can be stored in your refrigerator or in a cold storage room. The temperature in the refrigerator or cold storage room should be between 32 and 40 degrees Fahrenheit with moderate humidity, between 65 percent and 70 percent. Ensure that the temperatures do not drop below freezing. Depending on the variety, onions can last for weeks to several months when stored like this. For example, Spanish onions will last weeks while Copra onions can last for months.
Materials Onions should be stored in materials that allow air to circulate around the bulbs. Burlap and mesh are good storage options, as are the netting-like bags that onions are kept in at the grocery store. If the tops have been left on the onions, they can be braided together and the onions hung from rafters or the wall. Cut Onions If already cut pieces of onion are used later, the strong gasses that the onion releases that makes people cry will be much less severe. Raw, cut onions should not be left out overnight as they can attract bacteria.
