Welcome to the forum

[sajawal]

Actually i am very confused because of soil i don,t know what type of soil i should use for containers.
Currently i have a soil, sand and cow manure so please tell me how can i use them and what is the mixing ratio for these.
I am using 16 ltr paint buckets as a container.Are these containers are ok for cultivation.
And tell me what vagges and plants i can grow in this season.

[Izhar]

2 part manure 1 part soil mix them well... search vegetable calender on this forum...

[sajawal]

Thanks
some one told me that too much manure burns the plants

[Izhar]

It does burn if not well aged.. keep your soil mix well watered for 20-30 days before planting... this will reduce any excess ammonia (major cause of burning)

[sajawal]

thanks this information is very helpful .
Give me some guideline for germination of vagges seeds.
