I like to suppliment our plants in the spring with nitrogen.Most landscape plants use more nitrogen than other plant foods. Nitrogen is important to be available but don't use to much. To much nitrogen makes plants grow fast. Fast growing plants are not strong. Heavy amounts of nitrogen can also burn the plants and contaminate ground water resources. If your plants are pale yellow, you probably need more nitrogen.If your plants are growing fast and producing lots and lots of leaves they might have to much nitrogen. We recommend Osmocote fertillizer. It provides a constant supply of nutrients to existing landscape beds. We feel that ity is a great product to give the right nutrition for deeds,seedlings, and transplants. For new and established beds we like to use 3 tablespoons of Osmocote for each 2'x 2' area of garden, and work it into the top 1-3' of soil.When beds settle, add 1/2 teaspoon of osmocote mixed into the soil around the plant. A 3# package of Osmocote sells for around $12.00.

Pre-Spring Garden Planning Copyright © 2005 Tammy ClaytonThe end of Februrary already? My how time does fly! The sun has already become more readily available than in the past few months.
