Out, Darned Spot!

2/3/2014

 
Do your pots have spots?  Here's a a tip that might help remove them.  Mix a solution of 1 tablespoon vinegar per gallon of water.  Brush off all soil and debris from pots.  Soak the pots in the vinegar and water solution overnight.  Then use a wire bristle brush to scrub away mineral deposits from pots.  This process may need to be repeated a few times to completely remove spots. 

You can disinfect your pots by soaking them in a solution of 9 parts water to 1 part chlorine bleach for at least 10 minutes. 

Winter is the perfect time to do a little pot maintenance!  When Spring arrives, your pots will be clean and ready to plant
