The reason so many people move to Florida each year is that they never want to experience a harsh winter again. Can you blame them? That is not to say that Fort Lauderdale doesn’t experience the occasional bout of cold weather. But those cold snaps are a far cry from blizzards. We also follow the seasons when it comes to gardening. Now everyone is prepping for spring. Are you getting read to grow? You can when you put these plans into action:
Get Your Seeds
Gardening starts with the seeds. Do you have an idea of what you’ll be planting this year? There are plenty of gardening magazines that can offer inspiration. So, could a trip to a botanical garden. You can probably find all the seeds you’re looking for at a nursery or hardware store. If not, then you can certainly get them online. Once you’ve got all the seeds, spread out the packets on your table to see what colors/flowers will look good together. That is how you can map out your garden.
Set Up a Compost Area
Are you composting? Once you get started, you’ll wonder what took you so long. Composting is a way to recycle your organic food scraps. It all goes into a pile or bin box along with some worms and dirt. The worms enjoy the buffet and what they leave behind becomes the compost that you can use for your garden. Very nutrient rich.
Examine your Tools
There is a right tool for every job and that is certainly true with gardening. Did you winterize your tools in the fall? If not, then you’ll want to inspect them to make sure now rust has developed. If sharpening is required, then take them to a pro to get it down. Of course, you might just consider replacing the whole batch of tools and starting fresh.
Starting fresh also applies to the entire garden area. What kind of shape is your backyard in with regard to debris and rubbish?
