Spring gardening tips and tools

Spring is the season of development and regrowth. It’s the perfect time to begin organising and caring for your garden; helping you stay busy with new projects ranging from planting veggies and flowers to pruning trees and shrubs. We’ll outline some helpful tips and show you our favourite gardening tools below:

For gardeners, spring can be a hectic time of year. What you put in now will show in summer, so the following activities are important to ensure your outdoor space is lush and thriving:

• Planting – Start preparing beds for your herbs, veggies, and annual flowers. When choosing plants, take into account the local climate, the amount of sunlight on the ground and soil characteristics.
  
• Pruning -To shape and encourage healthy development, prune shrubs and trees now. Remove any unhealthy or dead branches.
  
• Fertilising – To provide your plants with the vital nutrients they need, use organic fertiliser or compost. Planting fruit or vegetable scraps directly into the soil with your seeds is a helpful trick to promote nutrient-rich soil.
  
• Weeding – Get rid of any weeds that are sapping water, nutrients and sunlight from your plants and soil.
  
• Watering – Make sure your plants get enough water, particularly in the dry months.

Tips for gardeners in spring 

Plan ahead of time by thinking about what you want to grow and when to plant it. To boost fertility, test the pH of your soil and add fertilisers as necessary. Then, choose the right plants – ones that are appropriate for the soil and climate where you live.

Use nets or row covers to shield your seedlings from insects and direct sunlight. Mulch your garden – this retains moisture, inhibits weed growth, and improves soil insulation. Keep an eye on your plants by examining them regularly and note any signs of illness, pest infestation, or nutritional deficiencies.
