STOP! Don't use w**d barriers in your gardens. These products not only have harmful chemicals and stop the nutrition getting to the soil. Also become a nightmare later on when w**ding and adding new plants. There are alternatives like premium mulch which will create great benefits to your beds.

Now is a great time to feed your lawn! Start with a coat of fertilizer and water your lawn after to help the nutrition to be absorbed. Wait at least a week to ten days before applying lime. Once plants have been given appropriate time to start absorbing the nutrients present in the fertilizer, apply lime to the soil. The addition of lime will increase the effectiveness of the fertilizer already present in the ground.

Experts recommend testing your garden soil every 3-5 years to see what nutrients or organic materials it needs and which it has too much of. You might learn, for example, that your soil is very high in phosphorous, so you would avoid adding fertilizers that contain a lot of it. Or you might find out your soil is naturally alkaline, and need to add aluminum sulfate around your evergreens and acid-loving shrubs like hydrangeas.

Once you know what your garden soil needs based on your test results, talk with someone at your local garden center about which specific products to use, always following package instructions for best results.

A good general practice is to topdress the soil with an inch or two of compost, humus and/or manure in early spring just before or as your bulbs are starting to emerge. That’s also a good time to sprinkle an organic slow release plant food like Espoma’s Plant-tone or Rose-tone around your perennials and shrubs. Earthworms and other garden creatures will do the job of working these organic materials down into the soil for you.

Do you have patches of lawn that look like this? This probably is cause by grubs! As Grubs awake from their winter slumber they will feast on your grass in the spring time. Now is a great time to laydown some Grub killer on these areas before they turn into beetles.
