Hello World! Welcome Friends! If you consider yourself a beginner gardener but you really want to grow a garden your neighbors will envy, then you’ve come to the right place. Here, we have some information that all beginner gardeners should know. Read on, and before you know it, you could have a garden you can admire year round:
There Are Apps That Can Help You
You don’t have to tackle this whole beginner gardener thing alone. As well as having numerous resources online that can clue you in, there are apps out there that can help you tremendously. Downloading an app is simple and can give you an exact idea of when to water your flowers and plants, among other things. You may need to pay for a decent one, but it’ll more than pay for itself when you have a beautiful, blooming garden year round
The Grass Doesn’t Have To Be Greener
If you want a healthy lawn, there are numerous things you can do. Using a technique like lawn aeration will get more air circulating into the root system, which in turn can add color and vitality to your lawn, along with other benefits. You shouldn’t cut your grass too short either – leave some length to keep it healthy and even invite insects, birds, and animals that could keep your garden live and healthy.
Get The Type Of Soil Right
You need to have high quality soil if you’re going to start gardening. Knowing the type of soil you have from the beginning will help you decide whether you need to invest in new soil or not. Certain plants and flowers will only thrive in special types of soil, which is why you need to get to grips with the different types. Investing in a premium soil conditioner is key for a healthy garden.
Take The Light You Get Into Account
Your garden may get light only at certain times of day, or even in certain areas. This is something else you need to take into account, as flowers and plants may need specific amounts to thrive.
Knowing The Difference Between Annuals And Perennials
If you’re going to garden well, then you should know the difference between annuals and perennials. Annuals just last for a season, and perennials come back season after season, going dormant during winter but coming back in the spring. When you know the difference and how much planning each type entails, you can decide what you’re going to include in your garden. It’s important that you leave each flower enough room to grow and bloom when planting.
Watering During The Growing Season
Your garden is probably going to need about an inch of water per week during the growing season. Try to water your garden at least three times a week and make sure it’s properly soaked.
Using Fertilizer
Flowers, plants, and vegetables will all benefit from fertilizing every month. This adds nutrients, including the two that are most important for your garden; nitrogen, and phosphorous. They help with leaf growth and root health. Just make sure you cut back on fertilizer outside of the growing season. You shouldn’t over fertilize at any time of year.
