Considerations for Spring Gardening

1/29/2021

0 Comments

 
Although it threatens to snow any day, there are still some preparations that we can make now for our spring and summer garden. First, it's a great time to catch up on some reading. I check out quite a few garden blogs, but my favourites are the Garden Professors and anything that Linda Chalker Scott posts. I highly recommend having a look at her page on horticultural myths. Especially pertinent at this time is her information about soil.

Check out -->  The Informed Gardener

also, of interest . . .

The Garden Professors Blog
There are almost 8 years' worth of archives in this science-based forum. Simply search the site using the search box in the upper right hand corner.

The Garden Professors Facebook Group 
If you join this group (you must have a Facebook account) you can post your question, which will be more quickly answered by one of the hundreds of participants. There is also a search function (the little magnifying glass in the upper right hand corner).

WSU's Gardening in Washington Website
This resource has only current, peer-reviewed publications, most of them as free downloads. Much of this information is useful to us in BC as we have similar growing conditions.
