The answer lies within your touch!Don’t get disheartened. Don’t stop here. Gardening is a journey of patience and perseverance, discovery and experience. So, keep digging..
A few things you must ensure to boost productivity of your plants:
Routine
Establish a watering schedule in this dry season. Water early morning to help plants produce food efficiently during peak hours of sunlight.
Fertilization
Both, over or under fertiziling plants can affect their growth. Know when they were fertilized before adding.
Cleanliness
Avoid water stagnation in trays / plates. They not only affect the root growth but also act as a breeding spot for insects, pests in the garden.
Patience
Perhaps, plants aren’t mature yet to bear their fruits, flowers. Constant weather changes also cause distress. These are factors beyond one’s control.
