Great gardens begin with healthy soil. The key component to
healthy soil is organic matter. A good way to create organic
matter is to compost your organic waste from the household.
This can include items from both the kitchen and the yard.
Create a space in the yard and remember that this may draw
critters from time to time. As these products break down
move the newly created compost to the gardens. Keep the
pile moving by turning the pile, this will hasten break
down. If it smells throw a little limestone on it this will
knock the odor down. If composting seems a little daunting
there are many great bagged products on the market that will
serve the same purpose. Bulk organic products are also
available, we use composted manure that we can deliver by
the yard, call or
e-mail for pricing and
availability.

Tip of the Month:
Magnolias, many are magnificent in April, these specimens
like peat (organic matter) spread around the base of the
plant to maintain an acid environment which is required for
success. Magnolias also often suffer from magnesium
deficiency, an annual application of Epsom salts or other
product containing magnesium will be beneficial. |
