Follow these cultivation tips to enjoy your Alfresco Hobby Vegetables as long as possible!
- Alfresco Hobby Vegetables need plenty of sunlight to grow well and produce healthy fruits. Make sure to place them in a sunny spot, preferably with 6-8 hours of direct sunlight a day. This especially applies to vegetables like tomatoes, peppers and courgettes. Herbs can be in partial shade.
- Vegetable plants like even watering. Water regularly, especially during hot and dry periods.
- To get healthy, sturdy plants, it is important to fertilise regularly.
- To ensure healthy growth and a better harvest, it is important to remove dead or damaged leaves regularly. This prevents disease and makes room for new, healthy leaves and fruits.
- For plants like tomatoes and courgettes, which tend to grow larger or spread out, it may be necessary to provide support with tomato cages or stakes.
