"They do, however, require a lot of attention if the plants are to be grown success. fully," says Ontario Ministry of Agriculture and Food horticultur- ist, D.B. McNeill. There are many types of con- tainers in wood, plastic, wire and ceramics available for hang- ing pots. Select a container with drainage holes to prevent over watering. To provide adequate drainage, make sure you use a loose soil mixture. If you are going to hang your plants outside, wait until the warm weather arrives, advises Mr. McNeill. Also, make sure they are well established in their baskets with good roots and new growth. If there is a frost warn- ing given or low temperatures expected, bring the plants inside. Cool winds and temperatures below 13 degrees C (55 degress F) may cause injury to the plants. Hanging baskets require care- ful watering. Too little water results in a check in growth, shedding of the leaves and un- sightly plants with dull, unattrac- tive foliage. Too much water causes a lack of oxygen in the soil, injuring the roots and leaves, and many eventually kill the plant. There is no set formula for how often you should water your plants. It depends on the.temper- ature, humidity anti light in the room as well as the type of plant. kind of soil, age of the plant. rate of growth, and the size and type of container. Generally the soil should he kept moist but not wet at all times. When watering, wet the soil right to the bottom of the pot and do not water again until the plants show signs of needing it. Water early in the day so that plants are not left saturated over- night. If you are going to water the ,plants by placing the pot in a shallow pan of water, keep a close eye on the soil surface. The practice of regularly leaving the plants in water until the top surface of soil is moist sometimes WANTED Candidates for Queen at the Zurich Agricultural Fair YOUNG LADIES BETWEEN THE AGES OF 14 AND 21 ARE ELIGIBLE TO PARTICIPATE Crowning will take place July 23 at the Talent Show featuring PIRIE MITCHELL & PEACHES The Queens Tiara is supplied courtesy of Anstett Jewellers, Clinton Those interested in participating please contact Mrs. Donna Klopp, Phone 236-4675 \.s;•w}}.>•., :'••Y,. vr........ r. : •..o .. :: r.::%.:'r>; ::::....: }. : � X..•1:2.:•,'•.1:.;}.:: .\'4:•R:::::::Si::v ::•:?f. .r:F:.;::f i:;p::;.:7.:P:...:• ...,'i ,r,:/.?.........YT1?':ijr.»::..,:�..•:.

To avoid this buildup, water the plants from the top once every two weeks. Use a liquid or water-soluable fertilizer every two weeks.
