I am so ready for a nice dose of vitamin D shining down on my face. Spring also means that pretty soon, gardening season will be in full force. Yes, friends, it’s time to get those gardening gloves ready.
Before you venture out into your yard this season, here are
10 Ways To Get Your Gardens Ready For Spring!
- Plan out your vegetable garden and flower garden/s. Think about what you want to plant and where you want to plant it.
- Clean out your bird feeders, birdhouses, and bird baths. Our aviary friends like a fresh start in the spring too. Don’t forget to refill the bird feeders too
- Start your seeds indoors. Make sure you place your seed flats near a sunny window.
- Rake out all your flower beds and garden. Be sure to remove all debris.
- Start weeding your gardens. Apply Preen to deter weeds from growing.
- Clean and organize garden tools. Get out the hoses from storage and turn on the outside water. Clean out any flower pots you plan to reuse.
- Fertilize your lawn.
- Purchase your mulch, potting soil and garden soil and store until ready to use.
- Divide your perennials. Transplant the divided perennials into new areas of your garden.
- Till your vegetable garden. If you have a raised bed garden, refresh the soil. Fertilize the soil before planting too. You can use a 10-10-10- fertilizer. Apply with a hand-held spreader and work in the soil with a rake.
