It is due to urbanization and growing culture of deforestation growing food and vegetables in apartments or in small spaces gardening is becoming increasing popular in the current environment. While this culture should be appreciated as there is no better alternative left for us to obtain and consume freshly grown organic harvest which is in current demand and much more better food alternative compared to market bought food. The major challenge in growing food at a small apartment or in a small space is not the limited space or unavailability of quality seeds, fertilizer. It is the problem related to dealing with abnormal growth of pests, fungus on vegetables and fruits plants as in small space gardening fungus growth increases due to lack of air circulation and highly humid and dynamic conditions .
It should be noted that while there are many organic and inorganic fungicides available in stores not all of them are suitable for the health of plants and for obtaining satisfactory harvest of vegetables and fruits. It is imperative to note that fungicide for spraying upon veggies and fruits plants can be easily prepared at home that too with limited items.
One of the most effective Fungicide for removing fungi and which is less harmful on plants method of preparing Fungicide is a solution of Baking soda and water with a tbsp of baking soda in four litres of water . It should be noted that spraying Neem oil spray is also effective in preventing from bugs, fungus and pests grow on plants.
It is the time for link up party Garden Affair which is related to gardening and where you can share any topic pertaining to growing plants and vegetables, Nature and birds.
