All About Berries.
Category: Organic Tips for your Garden | Posted: Wed Apr 25, 2007 5:00 am To prevent strawberries from touching the soil, cut a large doughnut shape from a piece of bubblewrap and put around the plant like a collar. To grow beautiful blueberries or cranberries. occasionally water with a mixture of two tablespoons of white vinegar to one quart of water. They love acid soil and grow best in soils with a PH below 6.5 You can also fertilize them by using coffee grounds, work them into the soil around the base of the plants, about once a month. To keep Rabbits away from strawberries, sprinkle Black pepper in your garden around and over the strawberry patch. Rabbits have a keen sense of smell and are repelled by the scent of pepper. When it rains make sure to re apply. Remove berry stains from your hands with lemon juice. To kill earwigs ( and who doesn't want to !) fill a jar lid with corn oil and place it in the garden. The earwigs are attracted to it and then they drown Cranberry Jello, is the only flavor of jello derived from genuine fruit, rather than artificial flavoring. Strawberries that are planted on a slope facing south will fruit at least a week earlier than strawberries planted on a slope facing north. Twigs and foliage of cherry trees are poisonous, and, if eaten, cause death, so watch out for your children. Mrs"G". This blog entry has been viewed 342 times
