Tips for Maintaining Your Garden
Maintaining a beautiful garden requires regular care and attention. Here are some tips from the experts at Gardeners Deptford:
Regular Watering
Ensure your plants receive adequate water, especially during dry spells. Early morning is the best time to water to reduce evaporation and allow plants to absorb moisture effectively.
Soil Health
Healthy soil is the foundation of a thriving garden. Regularly amend your soil with compost and organic matter to improve its fertility and structure.
- Test soil pH levels
- Use organic fertilizers
- Mulch to retain moisture
Pruning and Trimming
Regular pruning helps maintain the shape of your plants and encourages healthy growth. Remove dead or diseased branches to prevent the spread of pests and diseases.
Seasonal Gardening Advice
Different seasons bring different challenges and opportunities for your garden. Here’s how to prepare your garden throughout the year:
Spring
Spring is the perfect time to plant new flowers and vegetables. Start by cleaning up your garden beds and preparing the soil for new growth.
Summer
Focus on watering and pest control during the hot summer months. Ensure your garden receives enough shade to protect sensitive plants.
- Install irrigation systems
- Use shade cloths where necessary
- Monitor for pests regularly
Autumn
Autumn is ideal for planting bulb flowers and preparing your garden for the winter. Rake fallen leaves and add compost to enrich the soil.
Winter
While some plants go dormant, it's a great time to plan for the next gardening season. Protect sensitive plants from frost and reduce watering to prevent root damage.
