Good fertilizers do not contain sodium. This is poison for plants.

I do not repot frequently. My older plants only every 5-10 years. There was never a salination of the soil. It's a question of the fertilizer's quality I think.

@morph @Ungrimironfist @gardening
The filter for coffee/tea are ion exchangers. They exchange calcium ions for sodium ions. This salinizes the soil.

@ArneBab Vor allem die Nebentätigkeiten erfordern viel Zeit.

@ArneBab Vielleicht sollte man Parlamentariern anteilig für jeden versäumten Tag im Plenum oder einem Ausschuss die Diäten kürzen.

@derek Do you mean you have bought your soil from a producer? Then you should be aware that these artificisl soils often contain too much nitrogen: making green growing but no healthy plants. And at least after the first harvest you'll have to restitute what you'll have taken out with the vegetables.

@derek It is almost impossible to talk about gardening when you don't know where on earth the place is. Please look into my profile to see how you can mark your place without publishing private information.

Organic material is important to produce humus, but plants need also calcium, nitrogene, phosphor, sodium, magnesium, sulfur and a bunch of micronutrients. Only a correct analysis can show, what is necessary.

@sand That's what happens when you try to fight against nature. Nature always wins with its several million years training. 😉

@killyourfm male or female?

@CloudyMrs How long does it sit on the same place? And how did you fertilize it (the ratio of: nitrogene, calcium, phosphate, sodium, magnesium, sulfur)?

@killyourfm Several herbs grow only when and where they wish. In Germany we have a saying "Dill kommt wann er will" (Dill comes when it wants). And so it is.

@liztai I hope that there's no soap or detergent in your shower water because that kills rainworms and many other creatures in living soil.

#Garten #gardening #Saisonal

Was bedeutet eigentlich "saisonal" ? Wenn man sich das Angebot in Supermärkten ansieht, kann man leicht auf den Gedanken kommen, Gemüse, Salat und Obst _müsse_ hunderte von Kilometern mit LKW oder Flugzeugen transportiert werden, weil man sonst gar nichts zu essen hätte.
Wer einen eigenen Garten hat, weiß das ein bisschen besser.
Ich habe mal zusammengestellt, worauf man sich im Lauf des Jahres freuen kann:
