JOBS TO DO


Planting new trees now will give them a head start to get some roots established before the main growing season. Feed the trees well when planting and throw some of the food to the established ones as well while you are at it, it will perk them up in spring. Don't plant if it is too wet or frosty!

If the frost is on the lawn, try not to walk on it. This can turn the grass brown and you might be looking at your footprints for a couple of months!

When the weather gets too bad, go to the shed and get out your pots and containers that you use for growing seedlings. They will be ready for a good dusting first to get rid of the earwigs and spiders. They can then be washed and disinfected, ready for use in the next few weeks. (Try the vinegar solution, maybe)
