The Dirt Cheap Gardener o MARCH GARDENING TIPS
Spring is finally about to spring upon us! Try to get out in your garden during breaks between weather systems to look for any damage, get ahead of those nasty weeds that are just beginning to surface (if your snow has melted). Once a weed goes to seed, you can end up fighting its seedlings for more than seven years. In early spring, while they are young, they are easily pulled with their roots intact. After weeding, now is the time to think about preventive pest-control by turning over your soil and exposing insect eggs and larvae to hungry birds. Evergreen shrubs should be pruned before new growth starts. Fertilize deciduous trees, shrubs and roses. Don't forget to keep an eye on those pesky slugs and snails.
