Best Mycorrhizal Inoculants
Mycorrhizal fungi form symbiotic networks with plant roots — the plant feeds the fungus, the fungus extends the plant’s effective root system tenfold. Inoculants introduce these fungi to soils where they’re absent (mos
I’ve teamed up with some awesome bloggy friends to bring you Christmas in July!
Every Wednesday in July we will be sharing and linking up Christmas themed projects! I hope you’ll check in each week for fabulous Christmas ideas and inspiration!
It’s never too early to be inspired by Christmas ideas!
Choose a ribbon and start wrapping it tightly round a cookie cutter. Secure with a dab of hot melt glue at the end.
Aren’t these cute? They are so easy to make too.
I recommend using soft ribbon without the inserted wire.
The size of the cookie cutter will determine how much ribbon you need. For the Large star I used about 6-/12 feet of ribbon.
If the ribbon you have is too short to wrap the entire cookie cutter, just cover the outside or the inside edge with ribbon.
It may be July, but these adorable ornaments belong on a tree. Aww, look how cute they are hanging in my apple tree. It’s beginning to feel (a little) like Christmas!
We invite you to hop around and visit the other projects being shared and join in the fun! We’d love for you to link up your own Christmas posts. New or older posts are welcome! See you next Wednesday for more Christmas In July!
Thank you!

Liquid seaweed extract is the magic-bullet supplement of organic vegetable growing. It contains over 70 trace minerals, plant growth hormones (cytokinin, auxin), and improves stress resistance — making plants more drou

Bone meal — ground animal bone — is the traditional slow-release phosphorus fertiliser for vegetables, fruit trees, and bulb plantings. Phosphorus drives root development and flowering, so bone meal at planting time

Worm castings — the digested output of composting worms — are the closest thing to perfect plant food in nature. They’re mild, slow-release, packed with beneficial microbes, and impossible to over-apply. A handful ar

Container plants live or die by the potting mix. Ordinary topsoil compacts in a pot and drowns roots; the right potting mix has structure (perlite, peat or coco), nutrition (compost, slow-release fertiliser), and biology

Making your own compost is best, but if you’re just starting a garden — or topping up after a big planting — bagged compost is the practical answer. The right bagged product is fully composted (not raw manure), scree
