The start of spring and rising temperatures invite amateur gardeners to prepare their gardens and balconies for the season. Now is the ideal time to remove weeds, loosen the soil and start sowing. The portal "garbsen-city-news.de" now points this out.
Carry out cleaning workCareful cleaning is the first step towards redesigning the garden and balcony. Leaves and dead plants should be removed, garden furniture cleaned and the ground prepared for planting.
Loosen the soilBy loosening the soil and adding compost, a nutrient-rich basis for plant growth is created. Now is also the perfect time to sow flowers and vegetables.
Maintaining the outdoor areaCertain plants can now be cut back. However, owners should not cut off any new shoots. If pruning is carried out correctly, this will encourage flower formation.
Recognizing diseasesIn order to ensure the well-being of the plants, it makes sense to monitor them for pests and diseases. If hobby gardeners discover any, they can use natural pesticides to counteract them.
Decorating the balcony and gardenThe design and planning of the garden should not be neglected either. Hobby gardeners can create new beds and personalize their balcony or garden with furniture and decorations to create an inviting atmosphere.
Maintaining the lawnNot only bedding plants, balcony plants and shrubs need appropriate care now, but also the lawn. It is repaired after the winter and also receives the necessary care for the spring.
Scarifying the lawnScarifying removes moss from the lawn. However, this work should only be started when the lawn is actively growing. Balanced fertilization supports healthy growth.
Mowing the lawnRegular mowing improves the appearance of the lawn, but amateur gardeners should not cut too deeply. This makes the lawn more susceptible to disease and weed infestation.
By investing time and effort in their gardens now, amateur gardeners are laying the foundations for a season of outdoor enjoyment. With the right preparations, the outdoor area becomes a place of relaxation. So the warm days of the year can come.source: garbsen-city-news.de
