Do you do this?

I laze around all winter dreaming of spring and when it hits I’m ready to buy plants!  Yay! Whoopee!  I’m seduced by all of them.  I buy them and I bring them home but then my garden is not ready for them.  So this year I’ve already started prepping my beds.

It’s pretty simple, clear the old debris;  dead plants, tree leaves, old tags etc.  Next fertilizer with a gentle, organic fertilizer such as MicroLife 8-6-4.  It’s perfect for vegetable, flower and all new plantings!  Next spread some compost.  How much is up to you; older bed will need an inch or two and younger beds more.

Now you are ready for spring plantings!
