Cracking Chillies

Pretty Petunias

Planting:

When planting chillies, add a generous ammount of Plants Plus Groganic to the soil to help with feeding and water holding.

Care:

Over the growing season (spring/summer) apply Maxicrop fortnightly to ensure a bumper crop.

Harvesting:

Chillies can be picked and eaten at any stage of ripeness, with newer (generally green) chillies being hotter and less sweet than fully ripe ones (orange/red/purple depending on variety).

Summer time is petunia time! Petunias offer fantastic hardy colour all through the warmer months.

Planting:

To get the best out of your petunias, dig through Plants Plus Groganic before planting and fertilise with a liquid flower food such as Maxicrop fortnightly.

Care:

It is a very good idea to apply a mulch to the soil surface for summer, as this will help to retain moisture and cut down on time spent watering.
