6 Simple Watering Tips

With nothing but sunshine in the forecast, it's time to step up your watering game!

Can you believe that our forecast for tomorrow says we could reach up to 92 degrees? We can and we can’t wait!

Summer is finally here and that means that it’s time to be consistently watering our plants.

Some of us may have gotten away with skipping some watering this spring because of how rainy our weather has been, but we won’t be able to get away with that any more.

The hot weather ahead means it’s more important than ever to be diligent and consistent with our watering to make sure our plants can make it through the hot days ahead.

Watering your plants properly is the most important thing that you can do. Plant food and fertilizer won’t fix an over or under-watered plant.

It’s also worth mentioning that healthier plants have a better chance of surviving a heat wave so taking the time to take care of them now before the real summer heat hits will only boost your chances of having beautiful plants all summer long.

In our garden center, a lot of the issues we hear about from our customers actually end up being problems caused by over or under-watering.
