For January, we are happy to report, you can take the month off. For the most part. Consider the following: - Reduce watering of most indoor plants. 9 out of 10 problems with indoor plants are the result of over watering. Take a vacation from watering, use the extra time to listen to our biweekly podcast. - Order seeds for your veggie and flower garden. Fresh seeds are on the retail seed racks now and last year many seeds sold out early. We expect a similar experience this season! Order a copy of the Veseys catalog to start your shopping from home. www.veseys.com - Join online horticultural club meetings. Gardeners are social creatures and so are you (probably)... especially in winter! Bring your questions and an inquisitive mind: many answers are to be found here! - Read, listen, organize your garden photos from last summer and put up your gardening antennae: winter is when we learn and deepen our horticultural knowledge, not to mention create a plan for our 2021 garden! Relax, light the fire, enjoy a wonderful, quiet time to reflect. |
