Starting the New Year

This is the time to make New Years Resolutions. When you do, don't forget your garden.

My resolutions follow below:

1) Don't forget to fertilize. Here I am often suprised when I do fertilize and plants start to grow. Gee, I guess what I tell my customers does work.

2) Don't forget the Iron Plus. With our climate and soil and water Iron often gets chemically tied up. To cure this it takes additional iron and an acidifying agent. Iron plus has 40% Iron plus Humic Acid and it really makes a diference. Plus, it doesn't cause iron stains on concrete or paint.

3) Adjust my sprinkler system during the changing weather so as to not over water. Since the start of timed sprinkler systems we see more over watering than under watering. Remember too much water drives oxygen out to the soil and roots NEED oxygen to grow.

4) For my Design and Refurbish clients keep looking for interesting ways to develop our small yards. It is always fun to discover new ways to create interesting yards for people. Ways they would not discover on their own. I am going to be looking at more garden design magazines for ideasw to share.

These are my resolutions I know you can come up with some of your own.
