5 Creative Outdoor Garden Ideas

Tags
Hey guys welcome back in my blog. This time i will tell you about Decorate Garden.

1. Second Life for Tools
Well-worn garden tools find new life when fastened together into a teepee for climbing plants. This inexpesive trellis instantly adds country charm to any garden.

2. Into the Looking Glass
Add an optical illusion to create depth to your garden room by nestling a mirror in between plants. Just fasten it on a fence and watch how your space seems to double.

3. Alter Your Angle
Look at everyday objects from new angles. Feed scoops turned upright, paired with candles in hurricane globes shed new light on garden illumination.

4. Frosty Luminaries
These wintry votive holders are easy to make and add light to a snow-covered landscape. Created with flexible plastic bottles, poinsettia leaves frozen in the form give holiday color and offer a welcoming glow to guests.

5. DIY Cold Frame
Salvaged windows become a charming cold frame with a little DIY-ingenuity. Use reclaimed wood to complete the sides and keep your costs down -- then protect tender sprouts with style.

How To Planting, Growing, and Harvesting Corn

Tags
Hey guys welcome in my blog, this time i will tell you about How To Plant A Corn. In a small garden, 15 plants set 1 foot apart can be grown in a 3×5-foot bed. After the first year you will probably want to increase the size of the planting to at least 4 rows 10 feet long.

Soil, Planting, And Care
Corn needs a spot with that gets full sun and has fertile, wel-drained soil a pH of 6.0 to 6.8. Space plants 8 to 12 inches apart.

In cold climates you can plant in a raised bed covered with black or IRT plastic (Infrared Transmitting plastic) that will warm the soil.

Plan to fertilize twice because corn is a hungry plant. Before setting out seedlings, amend the soil with compost and mix a balanced organic or timed-release fertilizer into the soil. About 6 weeks or so later, when the plants start to produce tassels, fertilize them again. (If you amend the soil with cottonseed meal or other highnitrogen amendment it may not be necessary to feed the second time.) Use a hoe or trowell to mix the fertilizer into the top inch of soil between the plants. After this booster feeding, water your corn once or twice weekly if the weather is hor an dry.

Corn grows fast and needs lots of water to grow properly. It also has shallow roots that make it susceptible to drought.

Harvest and Storage
Most corn plants will yield at least 2 ears per stalk. To see if an ear is ready for harvest, look at the silks. They should be brown and dry with just a little fresh green at the base. If you're still not sure if the ear seems ripe, check by peeling just enough of the husk back to expose a couple of inches of the ear. Poke a kernel with your fingernail.

Place harvested ears in the refrigerator right way. When kept chilled, they should hold much of their sweet flavor for up to a week.
