TIPS FOR THE GARDEN


GENERAL TIPS FOR THE GARDEN



Top up the water in your pond if you see the water getting low. If you have a problem with pondweed it will be an idea to fish some of it out with a net to let light into the water. Leave the weed at the edge of the water overnight to allow the insects and pond life to skuttle back into the water.

If you do feel the need to put canes next to your tall plants then remember to put some form of protection on the top to protect your eyes from injury. An old pot will do. You don’t want any nasty surprises when you bend over to tend to the weeds!

Sprinkle a biological activator onto the compost heap if you think it isn’t rotting dwn quickly enough.

Always use a circuit breaker if you are using electric power tools outside. The plug in adaptors are now very cheap to buy so there is no excuse.
