Half ready and half not ready compost is sure to jeopardize not just the health of your plant but also bring diseases with it.

- The use of the right fertilizer – people often misjudge the use of the fertilizers and feel that by using abundant amounts of fertilizers on their plants they are adding to the life and quality of their green friends. But that’s not the truth at all, fertilizers can be good for your plants only if they are used in the right proportion, the excess usage of these chemicals to your plants can cause diseases, bugs and significantly contribute to the poor health of your plants.
- The proper watering – one of the most significant factors determining the life of your plants is the way you water them or rather feed them. There is no secret in the fact that all plants need water to grow, breathe and reproduce, but the fact is that the right quantity is very essential to make it beneficial for them. The requirements of water for plants vary as per the season, their size, growth etc.
- Ensure the proper placing – always make sure that you are placing your plants in a way that they are not getting crowed and that all of them have sufficient place to grow and bloom. Placing plans together not just reduces their chance of getting sufficient air, light and sunshine but also create humidity which can become a major reason behind creating mildews, bugs, etc.
