How to Maintain a Garden?
Controlling weeds and pests –
Weeds hinder the growth and well being of plants. Hence, removing them manually every day will help keep your plants and garden healthy and beautiful. As for pests, first step would be to cover any dentures in the walls of garden, as these holes attract pests and invite them inside the garden. Try using traps for mice, bats etc. You can also buy pesticides from any nurseries in the vicinity to help curb pests.
Maintaining your garden with the change of seasons is equally important. In the scorching heat of summer, it is important to keep the soil well moisturized. Make sure water penetrates through the soil and reaches the roots of plants too. This can be digging by the soil at regular intervals. In winters, plants require more compost than water. On the other hand, during monsoons, weeds tend to grow at a much faster pace, thus keeping a check on them becomes essential. Also make sure, water does not stand for too long in the garden, as it may ruin the plants.
