Garden Tips from Fox's

Fox's Garden Tips 5-11-22

Now that we are safely past our average last frost date it’s time to get those veggie and flower starts in the ground. We still have a good supply of starter plants, including veggies, herbs, annual flowers and perennials. 


If you’re getting ready to plant it’s always a good idea to freshen up the soil. The Organic Garden Soil from Ferti-lome is one of our favorites to mix into the ground or raised beds to give your plants a boost. It’s a dark, rich, peat moss mixed with earthworm castings and kelp meal. For clay soils, mixing in cotton burr compost is very effective. It is acidified to counter our high alkaline soil. Don’t forget to water your transplants with root stimulator to help prevent transplant shock and get the roots off to a fast start.


If you have unwanted grass creeping into your flower beds, spray with Ferti-lome over the top.  This product will kill grasses without hurting your plants. For well established, tougher to kill grasses it can take 2 applications about a week apart

We have only heard of minor damage on bedding plants, but trees were slightly damaged. Trim any branches that are broken and spray a small amount of pruning sealer on the tree's fresh cut. Just a reminder that if you applied a pre-emergence in mid March or April, it’s time to reapply this product to keep from getting weeds sprouting up later in the summer. It is also time to reapply fertilizer to the lawn to help it keep that deep green color and to help thicken up the roots. We still have a large selection of bedding plants. We received a large shipment of tomatoes, peppers plus many melons and cucumbers. Stop by and see the flowers that are available. Also please note that we will be closed Monday for Memorial Day as well as Mondays moving forward. Have a great weekend.

Spring is springing and the temperatures are looking good, if only the wind would stop blowing. Most lawns are starting to look pretty green. If yours still has a few yellow patches, wait a couple more weeks before worrying too much.
