Pest and disease monitoring involves regularly inspecting plants and soil for signs of pests, diseases, or other issues that could impact plant health. Early detection is crucial for effective management, as it allows gardeners to take timely action to prevent widespread damage. This practice includes checking for symptoms like discoloration, wilting, unusual spots, holes in leaves, or the presence of insects. Monitoring can be done visually or with the aid of traps and diagnostic tools. By staying vigilant, homeowners can quickly address problems using targeted treatments, such as organic or chemical controls, and by adjusting cultural practices like watering or fertilization. Regular monitoring is essential for maintaining a healthy, thriving garden free from the detrimental effects of pests and diseases.
