      You can put fish bone meal to ur plants
      That is very much effective
      Neem base whenever you add see that the soil is dry first if u putting liquid fertilizer, secondly mix the neem khal well with soil so that it's not on top & water when the top layer is dry
      Also see that u don't add neem base in winter's it creates lot of problems during that period

    • @rayzimmerman6740
      @rayzimmerman6740 3 місяці тому +1

      Hi. It depends on how confident you are that they are fungus free. The best way to ensure this, is to put them in gunny sack (bori), and leave it in a sunny spot for a month.
      Ideally, these should be crumbled by hand and added to your potting mix. They provide a nitrogen fix, and more importantly, improve drainage in the potting mix. This is a organic substitute for perlite.
      Hope this is helpful.

    @superbjee 2 роки тому +1

    Thanks for such valuable information. I usually mix exfoliated vermiculite in place of perlite. Reason being most perlite that’s available are fine dust. I hope using vermiculite is ok?

    • @rayzimmerman6740
      @rayzimmerman6740 3 місяці тому

      Vermiculite holds moisture, so its a cocopeat substitute. The added benefit of Vermiculite is that it hold fertiliser -such as NPK- and root burn is mitigated. Perlite on the other hand aids in aeration. There are options available which don't supply dust. You are right not to use this dust, as Heaven knows what it may contain!

Soil in my indoor plants becomes hard especially on top also inside the pot but still has good drainage. Though when I water it takes a lot of time to completely seep in . How do I resolve this issue any ideas?

    • @meghadutta1090
      @meghadutta1090 2 роки тому

      You can use perlites as well as cocopeat in your potting mix....it will retain the moisture...if still it too dries up, then use pebbles on top layer of soil or you can do mulching too....once in 2wks you can till/dig the top soil also....
