Some gardeners will use special gardening techniques that will help them get the most from a smaller garden. Follow these simple rules in order to get started with your garden this spring.
In the mild climates of the earth, some annuals grow and bloom through winter. By using chemical fertilizers the planter is adding unwanted nitrates to the soil.
Adding chemical fertilizers and additives will in the long-run damage the ability of the soil to produce what the plants need to fight against insect attacks, disease, and stress. You can easily develop a planting calendar by following guidelines, one thing is to know when the last frost date in spring is. Certain species of grasses are great clumped together forming a running grass.
Rose bushes are dormant during the winter; this is the best time to buy them. If you have problems with aphids on your roses and tomatoes you can take one onion and two medium cloves of garlic, finely chop these two ingredients. Plants should have leaves and flowers, but cut off all dead flowers and leaves.
Now get gardening. Before spring get's here, get things preped and ready to go.
