Seven Jobs for Seven Days
1. Keep a keen watch on the weather forecast for the F word, 鈥渇rost鈥� 鈥� have fleece at the ready!
2. Start to water pots and tubs more often and are adding a little feed to get the plants growing.
3. Begin to take cuttings of shrubs, using the easy to root soft new growth.
4. Feed (and weed) lawns to keep them looking green and healthy all summer long. May is also the last month to sow lawns before the hot dry summer weather begins.
5. Protect carrots from the evil carrot fly by erecting a fleece fence all around them, make sure the fleece goes into the ground, so the blighters do not get under it.
6. One of the jobs we love, as we potter in the garden is to tie in the new growth made by climbers to prevent any damage from the winds.
7. Keep the hoe moving, so we can keep our borders weed free.
