Tips & Guides

Start with a Soil Test

Before planting anything, consider testing your soil. A simple test will reveal nutrient levels, pH, and texture. This information helps you choose appropriate plants and plan amendments. Most local extension offices offer inexpensive soil testing services.

Water Deeply and Infrequently

Rather than shallow daily watering, water less often but more thoroughly. This encourages deeper root growth and creates stronger, more resilient plants. Water early in the morning to reduce disease and allow foliage to dry.

Mulch Protects and Improves

A 2-4 inch layer of mulch around plants retains moisture, regulates soil temperature, reduces weeds, and improves soil as it decomposes. Use organic mulch like shredded bark or straw, keeping it a few inches away from plant stems.

Plan for Succession Planting

Rather than planting everything at once, stagger plantings of vegetables and flowers every 2-3 weeks. This extends your harvest season, reduces pest pressure, and keeps your garden producing continuously through the growing season.

Know Your First and Last Frost Dates

These critical dates determine what you can plant and when. Find your local frost dates through your extension service or online. This knowledge prevents planting tender plants too early or too late in the season.
