Factors that make healthy plants
2

• As we read in our elementary classes that a
  healthy plant needs proper sunlight, water, air
  and nutrients. Soil is also a major factor that
  needs to be counted if you are looking for a
  healthy plant. There are many companies which
  provide the best arborist services like Oakville
  arborists which are known for their best services
  in the region , but still there are many small
  factors by focusing on that we can maintain our
  trees healthy. As air is present all around hence
  to make our plants healthy we need to focus on
  the rest of the factors and before planting trees
  and plants should count these factors.

Sunlight plays a vital role

• Photosynthesis is the process in which plants use
  sunlight to make their food. But it is not
  necessary that all the plants require same amount
  of sunlight, it actually varies from plant to
  plant. There are basically three different types
  of sunlight that plants require.
•          Direct sunlight that approaches the
  plants directly without any obstacle.
•          Indirect sunlight that approaches to
  the plant indirectly
•          Diffused sunlight - a filtered form of
  light that approaches to the plant.

Give water in a proper way
Like human beings need water to survive same is
the case of plants. But it does not mean to over
flood the plant beds with water , as excess of
everything is bad. Many micro organisms are
present in the soil that need water to move, grow
and
5

• activate their productivity, excess of water will
  harm these microorganisms and plants since there
  microorganisms have a role to play in the growth
  of the plants. In order to avoid these
  microorganisms to be harmed adapt drip irrigation
  method. There are many other ways to supply water
  to plants.
• Before watering the plant first examine the soil,
  put a finger in the soil and check the moisture
  level. By doing this you can decide how much
  water is required by the plant at that time.

•  
•  Newly planted trees or shrubs require more water
  as they need to establish their roots.
•  Water the plant thoroughly so that the roots get
  water properly.
• Warm water is good for plant as it is absorbed
  fast by them as compared to cold water.

7
Nutrients are important for plants

• The plant will grow healthy only if they get
  proper nutrients. So it is good to examine the
  soil before planting .There are different types
  of soil like sandy soil,

8

• clay soil and silty soil hence the nutrient level
  will be different in every type. You can increase
  the nutrient level of the soil by adding
  fertilizer in the optimum quantity. One can take
  help from arborist like Burlington arborists who
  provide soil care facility, They will examine the
  soil first before planting any tree and let us
  know what type of fertilizer is needed by the
  soil Before applying the fertilizer make sure
  that the soil has proper moisture so that the
  fertilizer will easily mix with soil.
•          Use fertilizer only if you see symptoms
  of nutrient deficiency in the plant because
  excess of fertilizer can burn the roots of
  plants.
•

•   Spring and summer is the growing season for
  plants so it is best to feed plants during these
  seasons.
•  Sometimes plants looks healthy but they produce
  least in such cases feed the plant via
  fertilizer.
• The selection of fertilizer is important if you
  want healthy plants. You need to test the soil to
  see if the soil is good enough for the plants
  that you are planning to plant over there. Get
  the soil tested from experts and agencies that
  have an experience in soil testing. The expert
  can guide you properly about your soil type and
  guide you properly what kind of nutrient is
  required by your soil.
