will you need?
Plants need
water
and
food
, but when and in what sort of quantities? This module explains the cultivation techniques necessary to keep your plants in fine fettle. Don’t worry; you won’t have to be a slave to them, just a good mother. And when it comes to
pruning
don’t shake in your shoes.
There are simple basic steps you can take to ensure you cut the right stem, at the right time, in the right place.
