Another gardening tip that I've been using the past few months -- epsom salts!
I had an old box in the house from an old sprain and didn't want to throw it out, but the carton was really falling apart. I found out that it makes a great natural inexpensive fertilizer. Add a couple of spoons to a gallon or so of water. All my houseplants have really greened up and thickened, just like MiracleGro. Now it comes in resealable recycleable bags and I use it every time I water my plants at a fraction of the cost.
