Is osmocote safe for the environment?

Osmocote, a slow-release fertilizer, is generally considered safe for the environment when used as directed. However, like all fertilizers, it can lead to nutrient runoff into waterways if over-applied, potentially contributing to water pollution and algal blooms. To minimize environmental impact, it's important to follow application guidelines and avoid using it before heavy rainfall. Additionally, choosing organic or less synthetic options can further reduce potential harm to ecosystems.

How do you grow a good bean plant?

Churn up the soil in the spring. Add lots of compost and fertilizer (Osmocote, or miracle gro) and re-till the soil. Plant them in an area that receives at least 6 hours of sunlight a day. Plant the seeds or small plants in the spring when danger of frost is past. Erect a 'Beanstalk' from lattice, sticks, or caging wire. Water them every other day that it doesn't rain, or when the soil looks dry.


What is the best time of day to fertilize flower gardens?

As usual, here's an indirect answer; It all depends on the type of fert you're using. A good idea is to apply lots of mushroom manure, or rich compost in the fall and churn(till) it in, that way it can break down and enrich the soil over winter. You can mix in any typical fertilizer a few weeks before you plant in the spring. You can also mix in something like Osmocote which will release nutrients all season at a timed pace, meaning Osmocote is a time-release fert. Once you apply it (mixed in to the soil well), it will FEED your plants all season. A caveat about fert's, be careful not to apply too much, more isn't always better, you can BURN the plants by overfeeding, and if too many fert granules contact the plant's roots, that can also BURN a plant. Just follow the directions on the box, and you'll be fine... Good Luck & Happy Gardening, Kevlar; if this answer helps, please 'Recommend Contributor'

How much sunlight does basil need to grow?

Basil likes a moist, semi fertile, tilled soil. Garden compost works well when planting out doors mix in with your regular garden soil. If you don't have access to compost a slow acting vegetable granular fertilizer works well like Osmocote Vegetable and Bedding Slow Release Food 14-14-14 (nitrogen - phosphorus - potassium). Over fertilizing Basil will cause excessive foliage and reduce the flavor. Basil is a light feeder once when planted and about 1 inch of water a week should be good.


Why do prayer plant leaves curl and turn brown?

Prayer plants are a tropical plant and require more humidity than found in most homes. Some ways to overcome this include: keep your plant out of direct sunlight, keep away from drafts (especially from forced-hot air furnaces), and increase the moisture in the air directly around your plant. One of the best ways to increase the local humidity around your plant is to have the pot on a tray of gravel and keep the gravel moist. Keep the base of the pot above the water-line of the gravel, and water your prayer plant (in a pot with drainage) regularly. You can mist the leaves with a sprayer, but the humidity from moist gravel is more consistent and will not leave water-spots on the leaves like tap water mist might. A good soil, like African violet soil, will help your prayer plant thrive, and a slow-release fertilizer, like Osmocote, is better than a liquid fertilizer.
