However, if you don’t know what you’re doing, gardening can be frustrating. The following are mistakes to avoid when gardening.</span><br style="background-color: white; color: #404040; font-family: "Helvetica Neue", Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px;" /><br style="background-color: white; color: #404040; font-family: "Helvetica Neue", Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px;" /><span face=""Helvetica Neue", Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif" style="background-color: white; color: #404040; font-size: 13px;">Mono Cropping. This is when similar plants are placed in a space without diversification or crop rotation, which can decrease the amount of nutrients available in the soil. Instead, rotate crops to enable the soil to replenish nutrients before replanting. A technique called companion planting pairs up specific plants, which also promotes soil diversity.</span><br style="background-color: white; color: #404040; font-family: "Helvetica Neue", Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px;" /><br style="background-color: white; color: #404040; font-family: "Helvetica Neue", Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px;" /><span face=""Helvetica Neue", Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif" style="background-color: white; color: #404040; font-size: 13px;">Lack of Soil Amendment. Unless you have loamy garden soil that consists of various kinds of soil, you should supplement your garden soil. For instance, heavy clay soils need extra sand and organic matter to reduce compaction. Sandy soils can benefit from additional compost or quality manure to improve moisture and nutrient levels.</span><br style="background-color: white; color: #404040; font-family: "Helvetica Neue", Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px;" /><p><span face=""Helvetica Neue", Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif" style="background-color: white; color: #404040; font-size: 13px;">Insufficient Spacing. Not properly spacing crops can limit your yield or kill the entire crop. Plants require sufficient space above ground to facilitate air and light circulation as well as space underground to ensure proper root growth. Seed packets contain information regarding how much space specific plants need.</span> </p>Kelly Kullberghttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03685135612200142039noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7745856045604769694.post-90813898777011493072020-09-17T21:18:00.003-07:002020-09-17T21:18:54.737-07:00The Game of Pickleball<div class="modal-body" style="color: #404040; font-family: "Helvetica Neue", Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; padding: 15px;"><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjiQcS4Dcg4gX-eoYK9WX5eURlkh_iRouDf72VyZ1EPCb-jN93B7AVJCvYn5m9IIBRprBb1onhJ28mFS2pZF1hbcrIS0KMBN6ef33ouJhw8v6Gy4yOyt3hv8KkTh4R2IGV6VtwawF8LZoRh/s360/240_F_247777139_CyVqd40m0MrVLLt1ggGeUcj8ORGTMAZP.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="240" data-original-width="360" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjiQcS4Dcg4gX-eoYK9WX5eURlkh_iRouDf72VyZ1EPCb-jN93B7AVJCvYn5m9IIBRprBb1onhJ28mFS2pZF1hbcrIS0KMBN6ef33ouJhw8v6Gy4yOyt3hv8KkTh4R2IGV6VtwawF8LZoRh/s320/240_F_247777139_CyVqd40m0MrVLLt1ggGeUcj8ORGTMAZP.jpg" width="320" /></a></div><br /><div id="md-content"><br /></div><div id="md-content">Kelly Monroe Kullberg is the founder of The Veritas Forum and an award-winning Christian author of the books Finding God at Harvard: Spiritual Journeys of Thinking Christians (a Christian Booksellers Association Book of the Year) and Finding God Beyond Harvard: The Quest for Veritas (a Christian Booksellers Association Book of the Year nominee for best writing). Outside of her career, Kelly Kullberg enjoys a variety of sports, including squash, tennis, golf, and pickleball.<br /><br /><b><a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pickleball">Pickleball </a></b>is a paddle sport with similarities to tennis and badminton. Invented in 1965 on Bainbridge Island near Seattle, Washington, the sport is played on a badminton-sized court with a net similar to a tennis net. A pickleball is similar to a whiffle ball but is more durable.<br /><br />The game is named after the family dog (“Pickles”) of one of the inventors of the sport. Pickles chased the balls hit off the playing field, which made them “Pickle’s balls.” The paddles are similar to ping pong paddles and are made of wood or fiberglass. Part of the appeal of Pickleball is that it is an easily accessible and inclusive game playable by people of all social and economic backgrounds.</div></div><div class="modal-footer" style="background-color: whitesmoke; border-radius: 0px 0px 6px 6px; border-top: 1px solid rgb(221, 221, 221); box-shadow: rgb(255, 255, 255) 0px 1px 0px inset; color: #404040; font-family: "Helvetica Neue", Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; margin-bottom: 0px; padding: 14px 15px 15px; zoom: 1;"></div><p> </p>Kelly Kullberghttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03685135612200142039noreply@blogger.com0
