End-of-Season Gardening Tasks to Tackle Now
With fall’s chill in the air, avid #gardeners and casual growers alike may be wondering what to do now to guarantee a good season next year. After you harvest any last-minute #produce such as green tomatoes, clean up your pots and garden beds. Pull weeds and add them to the compost heap, Garden Betty advises; trash any diseased plants. Otherwise healthy and pest-free plants can be cut down and used as mulch to nourish next year’s crops. You may wish to test your soil for nutrients and amend it over winter to ensure success in the #spring. Now is also a good time to dived and thin perennials and prune trees and shrubs. #FallGardening
