Johnson Brothers Greenhouses Plant Care Library
Proper plant care yields way more in benefits than the work it takes.
Successful gardeners know their success comes from practicing. Practicing habits that save time and money.
It is just like maintaining your car.
Stick to a simple maintenance plan and it should run smooth for a long time.
Our plant care sheets help you understand fertilization, watering and deadheading in a simple, easy to read and practical format.
Make it easy on yourself. Print them out and take it outside as you are doing the work.
Remember, the end result of all this work is...
- Dazzling colors
- An abundance of succulent berries
- Or a harvest of fresh vegetables.
Our recommendation is to start small if you are a beginner. It really can be overwhelming if you take on too much.
You can always expand when you get good at it.
Below is a growing compilation of over 30 years of successful gardening and farming experience.
The content in the care sheets is useful, inspiring and practical.
