Homesteading friends, I welcome you to my vegetable block. I need some guidance from you guys. The heat is at its peak in Pakistan at the moment and the leaves of the vegetables are drying up and falling due to the heat.
Especially the tomato plants are not growing at all. I also water them on time and protect them from the sun. Despite this, the drying and falling of the leaves is beyond my understanding. Since I do not want to use fertilizers and want them to be taken care of organically, if you guys have any ideas, please share them with me and tell me in the comment section how I can make these leaves fresh and green.
The tomatoes are also bearing fruits at this time, but due to the drying of the leaves, new flowers have stopped on them. If the buds do not bloom, then there is no question of growing more tomatoes on them. I know that there are very experienced gardeners who can tell me how to restore their growth. You can tell me this. Tell me whether I should use urea for their growth or apply cow dung fertilizer. This vegetable garden is watered on the second or third day.
I also have some chili plants whose leaves are completely green, but there is a problem with flowers and fruits. They should have picked flowers and fruits by now but they have not started to flower yet. The flowers that do come wither and fall off. So tell me also about this and what I should do about it. The solution is possible in the form of spraying but I want not to spray. After all, I told you earlier that I want to get vegetables from them organically because I want organic vegetables for my home garden. I do not want to use chemical fertilizers in them, that is why I am requesting your advice.
I have also planted mint in this vegetable garden, which is lush and green. The heat has no effect on it because it has a strong ability to tolerate heat. Its aroma is also very good and its sauce is very tasty and delicious with food. If you also want to enhance the taste of your food, then you will use mint. It also improves my appetite and has many other benefits.
Now I spray water on these plants with the help of a shower daily to make them green again because until these leaves are green, the plant will not grow at all. Its roots are strong, but due to heat and humidity, the plants are not growing nor are the leaves capable of storing food. If they are green, the leaves will store food with the help of the roots and this will increase their growth. I am thinking of softening the soil with this and using chicken manure in it because I have experience with this thing that is very powerful with chickens and plays an important role in the intoxication of plants. So, I am going to experiment with that, too, which I will share with you in the next post. See you in the next blog.
