 Sample excerpt:
“Replacing old plants - In the home garden plants are usually removed and replaced after 3 years, even though they may fruit for 5 or more years, the plants become less productive as they age and disease can also build up in the soil. The best approach is to remove the plants and start afresh every 3 years and choose a new position to avoid soil borne viral and fungal diseases.”
