Week of April 3rd, 2010

• Fertilize roses again.
• Fertilize citrus trees with high nitrogen.
• Keep an eye out for plants that will be emerging with the heat. Don't dig it up just yet!
• Keep rowcover handy for peppers and tomatoes.
• Plant perennials, trees, roses, herbs (except for warm-weather herbs like basil)
• Don't fertilize brand new plants. Let them get their roots established. You can give them a drench with liquid seaweed.
• Dig up grass from around the trees.
• Hold off on fertilizing the lawn. You can apply compost.
• Pull or mow weeds to break the seed cycle. Herbicides will not help you now.
