ü  PEST CONTROL MANAGEMENT (PCM)

Just like a human, plants also infected with various type of Insect, fungi and bacterial disease. Each infection has different treatments, no single pesticide treat all infections. Our expert horticulture identifies the correct problem on regular basis and instructs the proper treatment and pesticide to the gardener for efficiently and effectively response.

·         Every plant is to be treated once in a month with common Insecticide and Fungicide for preventing unidentified pest, insects, fungi and bacteria. In rainy season chance of bacterial and fungi attack is more so frequency of treatment will be doubled.

·         Highly infected plants will be identified and treated weekly by applying proper systemic insecticide & systemic fungicide.

·         Safety factors of gardeners during treatment service will be properly taken care of by providing eye protection glasses, tight hand gloves and mask for nose & mouth.

·         Safety of residents during treatment especially children will be taken care of by our gardener.

ü  INTEGRATED WEED MANAGEMENT (IWM)

·         Integrated Weed Management (IWM) is a process by which one selects and applies a combination of management techniques (biological, chemical, mechanical, and cultural) that, together, will control a particular weed species or infestation efficiently and effectively, with minimal adverse impacts to non-target organisms.

·         IWM involves the use of the best control techniques described for the target weed species in a planned, coordinated program to limit the impact and spread of the weeds.

·         The long term approach to integrated weed management should reduce the extent of weeds and reduce the weed seed stock in the soil.

·         We use Contact Systemic Herbicide (Chemical techniques), which do not damage the existing nearby plants; It will only kills weeds and their underground network. By repetitive use of contact systemic Herbicide we will easily be able to remove aggressively growing weeds like Motha, Crabgrass, Purslane etc

ü  PLANT GROWTH AND HEALTH MANAGEMENT

·         This service specially takes care of plants growth, their health and appearance. In this service we will try to improve plant growth, root growth, foliage appearance, along with trying to produce more flowers. This can be achieved by regular uses of organic/inorganic materials like Fertilizers, Plants boosters, Humic acid, Effective micro-organisms (EM), Plants regulators, Plants tonic through foliar spray and through ground.

·         We will also take care to see that fruit plants produce more fruits and reduce early drop out of fruits.

ü  ANNUAL FEEDING

Due to regular watering of plants and heavy rains during monsoon, some amount of mud gets washed out. With passage of time, nutrients in the soil also reduces due to which micro-organism activity in the soil becomes weak. As a result, plants intake of food and nutrients from the soil becomes less.  Accordingly, all the plants and grasses require small amount of fresh mud and manure, at least once a year. We take care to spread red mud & manure once a year. Exact quantity may differ each year, depending on the condition of garden. The supply materials used for annual feeding are not included in this scope of work.
