Even experienced gardeners make mistakes, but making a few of these simple ones can set your whole season back! Planting too early, overwatering, and starting without a plan are three of the biggest problems we see every year. The good news? They’re easy to avoid once you know what to watch for. | | 1. PLANTING TOO EARLY Two things to watch for: cold soil and transplanting too early. Planting before the soil warms can slow germination, stunt growth, or kill young seedlings. Check your zone's last frost date and soil temperature, and be sure seedlings are hardened off by gradually exposing them to sunlight for about a week before transplanting. | | 2. OVERWATERING Too much water can suffocate roots, cause yellowing leaves and invite fungal disease. Make sure to always check your soil before watering. Water deeply and allow the soil to dry slightly between watering to encourage strong root growth. | | 3. PLANTING WITHOUT A PLAN Planting without considering spacing, sunlight, and layout can lead to overcrowding, shading small crops, and reducing yields. Take time to map your garden before planting to ensure proper airflow and healthy growth. | | No longer want to receive these emails? Unsubscribe.
