Even though it’s still February, it’s not too early to get started with your garden plans.
All of the seed and plant catalogs are out and available so you can see what’s new for 2021.
What would you like to change in your garden? Do you want more color? Maybe you want to move or expand some beds.
If you’re planting flowers or vegetables from seed, now is the time to get them started so they are strong and healthy when it’s time to move them outdoors.
Plant your seeds in a warm spot and keep them moist enough to grow but not so moist that you have a problem with mold or damping off.
Once they’ve sprouted, put them in a window or under grow lights.
When it starts to warm up outside, you can acclimate them by moving them outdoors during the day but bring them in at night. And remember that the deer and other animals just love those tasty young plants.
