Ants
Use AntFree Ant Killer Granules** to fight ants. The powder easily dissolves in water and can be applied to the appropriate areas with a watering can. The product can be dry scattered right out of the box or dissolved in water and applied with a watering can.
Aphids are on the way
Aphids can now be increasingly spotted on the buds and leaves of summer flowers. Tackle these by spraying with BugFree Bug and Larvae Killer Concentrate+. BugFree Bug and Larvae Killer Concentrate+ is well tolerated by flowers.
Deadhead flowers
Deadheads on geraniums or other balcony plants not only look ugly, they can also spread botrytis cinerea or other diseases. So make sure to remove them on a regular basis.
Tasty tomatoes from containers
Lots of tomato varieties such as trusses of tomatoes or cocktail tomatoes grow well in tubs on the balcony. The plants should be placed in a sunny but rain protected position. A peat-free soil specially designed for the needs of tomatoes and vegetables makes a suitable planting substrate.
Roses need protecting
Roses in tubs easily succumb to a variety of fungal diseases such as black spot. Spray your plants before infestation with a product against fungal diseases on ornamental plants. Ask at your garden centre for a suitable product.
