Hey everyone! Today is groundhog’s day and with that comes little hope for a short winter. This my friends did not happen. The good old gopher saw his shadow indicating we must all wait for the snow to melt and spring to come a bit longer.
It’s hard to do with the anticipation of warmer weather and the ground becoming soft enough to till. But for those dedicated gardeners out there, seed starting is approaching fast. Now is the time to plan. Figure out what you have room for and remember what worked last year. now is a good time to order seeds since they will keep dormant in a cool, dry place. It’s better to have them early than miss your transplant date.
You must also think of what you might want to do for preparation. Do you want to fertilize or are you going organic? Will you run soaker hoses or go water yourself. What about plastic? Plastic can do all sorts of wonders to a garden. Ill save that for another post.
Well leave comments and your own posts and come back often for more gardening information.
P.S. I do all my seed purchasing through Park Seed!
What would you recommend for a garden? Fertilizer or organic? What do you do?
ReplyDeleteOrganic is always better but there are many fertilizers out there that are certified organic. Organic is hard to grow large crops and if you want a lucious garden in the back yard then use fertilizer.
ReplyDeleteThank you. I will take that into consideration.
