Our Texas Whirlwind Spring is in full swing!
-
Water deeply in early morning, or evening, and infrequently...as needed. With the rain chances increasing, you won't need to water as often.
-
It is time to apply organic fertilizer to your lawn and flowerbeds. DO NOT use products that say "Weed and Feed" and avoid synthetic/chemical brands.
-
Continue to fertilize your planters this month 2x/month, at 1/2 strength. I use Garrett Juice Plus and Nature's Creation Premium Organic Fertilizer.
-
NO pruning on oak trees to avoid oak wilt.
-

What "To Do" in the Garden this Month:
I'm always amazed at how much there is to do in the garden, and so many times I feel a bit
overwhelmed with what I want to do versus what I can do. So, I make a list.
Lists are great; I absolutely love them!
But, always remember that God ordains our steps and His way will always be best.
I love to use the Dirt Doctor's "What to Do" as a guide.
