About Garden Talk Online

Garden Talk Online answers the questions everyday growers actually ask: why leaves turn yellow, how often to water, what to do about pests and which tools are worth buying. Despite the name, this is not a forum: we publish practical guides and question-and-answer articles.

New to gardening? Start with gardening for beginners and the complete plant care guide. If something already looks wrong, go to common garden problems and solutions or browse gardening questions answered.

How we write our guides

  • Our advice draws on Cooperative Extension publications, the USDA Plant Hardiness Zone Map and product labels; local conditions can change the answer, and your local Extension office can help.
  • Always read and follow the label on any fertilizer or pesticide, and check whether plants are toxic to pets.
  • Some links may be affiliate links. See our affiliate disclosure and editorial policy.
