FAQ

When you go grocery-shopping, do you prefer paper or plastic bags?
I read about it(i dunno if it was on here or somewhere else) that more trees would be sacrificed for using paper for grocery shopping. The problem with plastic is the production process not proper disposal. a single plastic bag I believe takes 100 years to totally decompose. So, I use a grocery bag. The wal mart bag. I try to be as environment friendly as possible :)
Yes, nursery trays can be used for starting plants from cuttings. They provide a convenient and organized way to propagate multiple plants at once. The trays typically have individual cells that can hold the cuttings and provide the necessary support and moisture for root development.
Yes, agricultural plastic products can be used for soilless cultivation. Soilless cultivation, also known as hydroponics, involves growing plants without soil by using a nutrient-rich water solution. Agricultural plastic products such as grow bags, trays, and channels can be specifically designed to support the growth of plants in a soilless environment. These products help in providing stability, proper drainage, and control over nutrient intake for plants, making them suitable for soilless cultivation methods.
There are several types of plastic covers commonly used in agriculture, including greenhouse film covers, mulch film covers, and tunnel covers. Greenhouse film covers are usually made of polyethylene and are used to create a controlled environment for crops, protecting them from extreme weather conditions and pests. Mulch film covers are typically made of low-density polyethylene (LDPE) and are used to cover the soil surface around plants, conserving moisture, suppressing weed growth, and regulating soil temperature. Tunnel covers, on the other hand, are made of polyethylene or polyvinyl chloride (PVC) and are used to create temporary structures that protect crops from wind, frost, and excessive precipitation.
Some ground cover options for regions with dry, arid soil include succulents like sedum and yucca, drought-tolerant grasses like buffalo grass and blue grama, as well as low-growing shrubs like lavender and juniper.
Compost bins are typically made from high-density polyethylene (HDPE) or polypropylene (PP) plastics, which are durable, UV-resistant, and able to withstand the decomposition process of organic waste.
Ground cover can have a significant impact on the growth of nearby herbs. It can provide protection from harsh weather conditions, reduce weed competition, and help retain moisture in the soil. Additionally, certain ground covers may release nutrients into the soil, benefiting the growth of nearby herbs. However, it is important to choose the right ground cover that is compatible with the herbs' needs, as some ground covers may compete for resources or create a dense shade that hampers herb growth.
