Reader Jean-Yves Clavreul has dropped us (by email) a note and photo about simple methods of retaining water and earth around young plants, to encourage their growth. Put a used plastic bag (the ones that blow around everywhere) around a plant before putting in into the soil, and top it off with a small layer of earth.

Watering the plant once a week around its stalk will be enough to see it grow strong.
