Seasonal Gardening

Seasonal gardening allows you to plant, grow, and harvest crops at the right times, making the most of each season’s unique conditions.

1. Plan for Each Season

• Research what plants grow best each season in your area.

• Create a seasonal calendar to keep track of planting times.

• Rotate crops to keep your soil healthy.

2. Prepare Your Soil

• Test your soil and add compost or mulch before each season.

• Clear out old plants to make room for new growth.

3. Plant What’s in Season

• Spring: Leafy greens, carrots, and flowers like tulips.

• Summer: Tomatoes, peppers, and sunflowers.

• Fall: Kale, broccoli, and root vegetables.

• Winter: Indoor herbs or cold-tolerant crops like spinach.

4. Adjust Watering for the Weather

• Water more in summer and less in cooler months.

• Water early in the morning or late in the evening during hot weather.

5. Protect Your Plants

• Use mulch to protect roots from temperature changes.

• Cover plants in winter and early spring to shield them from frost.
