The mustards are several plant species in the genera Brassica and Sinapis whose proverbially tiny mustard seeds are used as a spice and, by grinding and mixing them with water, vinegar or other liquids, are turned into a condiment also known as mustard. The seeds are also pressed to make mustard oil, and the edible leaves can be eaten as mustard greens. |

Pest control
|
|
By Nathan Jackson Spring is here and gardeners everywhere are hard at work preparing for another season of fresh veggies and pretty flowers. This is a time of hope and possibility. Dreams of bountiful harvests and aromatic bouquet's abound. What could possibly stand in your way? Bugs and to me more specific, plant eating bugs. They have survived the long winter and, like us, have been looking forward to spring. The weather turns warm and the delicious plants start to grow. Its a great time for a pest bug to emerge from the soil to search out your tastiest treats. All your hard work digging and planting will soon be an open buffet for thousands of little mouths. Even that beautiful lawn you love so much will soon be literally crawling with bugs. You didn't put in those long back breaking hours for nothing. You aren't going to just sit there and let them have free run of the place. So, what can you do to protect your plants and keep those pests from becoming a problem? Predator Nematodes attack nearly every soil pest that invades your garden. |

Germination

Easier than it Sounds By Vicki Parsons You may not know it, but thousands of gardeners across the country will start their seeds hydroponically this spring - and they may not know it either! Peat pots and soilless potting mixtures clearly meet the definition of textbook definition of hydroponics - grown without soil -- even though they don't necessarily meet the high-tech criteria that typically come to mind. |

Greenhouse

(Why Greenhouse Ventilation is Important) Owning a greenhouse means staving off the winter or getting a jump start on spring. But warmer spring days can be devastating in your greenhouse if you're not prepared. Just one hot day may be all it takes to destroy your crop. Too much heat magnified in an enclosed space doesn't make for an ideal environment, as the news of global warming reminds us nearly every day. We are used to hearing about greenhouse gasses and the ill effects of the trapped heat on our environment. Yet, greenhouses are designed to do just that- trap heat. The secret in staving off too much of a good thing lies in proper ventilation. |
