Planning Ahead

Forest

Winter is not a time for “laying low” a blue print for next season can be created now! You can begin by choosing annual plants and flowers from a catalog, online or just re-plant your “favorites”. Choices will be based on several things including your zone, the condition of your soil, how much sun or shade your garden areas receive and what you grew in those same areas last season.  Purchase a soil quality kit to determine what you might need to amend your soil and plan to rotate anything you planted last year to a new location next season.  When rotated, plants in the same family will have fewer diseases. Choose and purchase quality seeds early as they sell quickly and may not be available if you wait until spring.  When the time comes be sure you have proper supplies and have taken the steps to initiate seed growth. You may want to start seeds under a grow light, in a green house, in the ground or simply grow something in a sunny indoor window. Planning ahead is your key to success!  Cheers
