Tip 7: Using Mulch to Retain Moisture and Regulate Temperature
Applying a layer of mulch on top of the soil in your hanging baskets can help retain moisture and regulate soil temperature. Organic mulches like shredded bark or coconut coir are excellent choices, as they decompose slowly and add nutrients to the soil. Mulch also helps suppress weed growth and can enhance the overall appearance of your hanging baskets.
Tip 8: Rotating Hanging Baskets for Even Growth
To ensure even growth and prevent one side of the basket from becoming overgrown or sunburned, rotate your hanging baskets every few weeks. This simple practice allows all sides of the basket to receive equal sunlight and air exposure, promoting balanced growth and a more symmetrical appearance. Regular rotation also helps you monitor the health of your plants from all angles.
