Re: [Everything doTERRA] Re: Gardening

That is so cool. Thank you so much for sharing this. I will start to put new soil in my pots right away. I have kept my plants indoor for the past year and a half. They are just too fragile to leave outside for any time because of the high winds we get off the coast here year round. They stay in my living room in fron iof the sliding glass doors. We don't have screens as of yet...but someday I hope to have a screened in lanai. Let me know when your avocado's start to bare fruit.
Thanks again,
Jan in Florida.

Hi Jan I am sorry I have not returned your email until now. My plants are in doors in a solarium-a glass room off my livingroom. My plants spend winters in, I bring them in when the weather at night is around 40 degrees and they winter indoors and summer out doors. My plants are two years old, I transplant them into new soil each spring and increase the size of the pot. When out doors they have to be watered daily to thrive and survive.

The spray sits for just a little while like 60 seconds and you rinse with clear water until the suds are gone. I have had good luck with this.

Wow, that's really cool, Ardelle. How old are your plants and are they inside or out? Once they bloom, they will have fruit from what I understand.
How do you rinse the soap away? Just spray again with just water?

Try mixing up some mild dish soap, like Ivory put it in a spray bottle and spray the plant after about 10 minutes rinse away. My avacodo is blooming and I am hoping to cross polinate with a paint brush and have avacodo's...I'll keep you posted.

I have some similar questions...does anyone know anything about avocado's? I have been raising 4 plants from seeds for about a year and a half now. I get these little nats that are so pesky cause I keep the plants inside. Too much wind here in Florida for these 34 inch tall skinny trunks. Just getting about 2 in. of bark on each of the trunks now. I tried using the oils on them too and almost lost one, but I got it back to health with just using fresh filtered water. I read somewhere that you are supposed to clip them down, but they are so full and beautiful. Is that necessary? I won't transplant these till they are good and solid trees. Any suggestions> I also read somewhere that it takes about 4 years till they bare fruit. Like growing bamboo.

If anyone can, would love all the help I can get. And good luck with your garden.

We are in the Northwest. We will be using direct sunlight and lights.
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  I have been studying on how to do an indoor garden and have been
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  planning it for a few months now. Do you spray the water around the
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  pots and tables and on the actual plants? I used a couple drops of
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  lemon oil on a pointsetta (in the soil) and it about killed it so I
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  want to make sure I use the oils correctly if I'm going to.
