Week of December 5th, 2009

  • Watch the weather for early frost and be ready to protect cold-tender plants.
  • Keep an eye on seedlings to make sure they’re not drying out.
  • Keep an eye on the compost pile. With our cooling temperatures, the activity in your compost pile will start to lower. Turn it to increase activity and its temperature to keep it active.
  • Continue planting trees, shrubs, and hardy perennials. It’s an excellent time to get spring-flowering perennials in the ground.
