The best Gardening London tips to prepare for the spring

With such a long and cold winter season, many gardeners are pleased that the spring is finally here. Even better, it's the perfect time to grow seeds and nurture gardens which will bring about the hot green appeal of the spring season. However, without early preparation, your gardening will not be good. Here are a few of the most useful tips to organize your gardens for the spring season. 

 

Start searching for bulbs and seeds

 

If you want to plant flowers such as lilies, it's time to start buying seeds and bulbs. Otherwise, you'll miss out on the radiant summer display. You can either buy the seeds online or purchase them from the store in your local area. Make sure the bulbs and seeds are in excellent condition to avoid disappointments late in the season when the spring season has passed. 

 

Cleaning your garden

 

If there are rubbish in the garden, it's time to throw them out. Do not forget about the lawn and the pond. Get rid of any unwanted weeds from the garden and place them in a stack to create a fertilizer that can later be used when gardening. Dig up the soil in the flowerbeds and garden to make sure it does not harden. If you cannot do this by yourself, it is time to hire a Gardening London service.

 

Cleaning the greenhouse

 

If you prefer planting in a greenhouse, it's time to do tidying. If there are any leftover debris in the pots, clear them out. Ensure that the benches and floor surfaces are cleaned completely to avoid bringing in any unwanted pests. Check the temperature and anything else required to make sure the greenhouse is in a perfect state when the spring season starts. 

 

Mending fences

 

If you would like to divide the plants in your garden, you need to start fixing the fences. If you're using wooden gates, make sure they're properly treated to avoid pest attacks. Fix any broken latches and paint them accordingly to make your garden beautiful when the planting starts. 

 

Clean the gardening tools

 

Having thrown the gardening equipment in the shed during winter, it is about time to take them out of storage. Clean, sharpen and check them to ensure they're working well. Replace any broken or damaged equipment so that everything is working before you start planting. 

 

Prepare compost/manure

 

If you'd like your plants to grow properly when the spring comes, you need to be armed with a lot of compost and manure. However, you should avoid using manure or pesticides that can harm your flowers. As such, any unwanted weeds or plants picked from the garden should be placed in a garden compost area. On the other hand, you should collect any animal waste in your garden and store it for use as a compost.

 

Last but not least, you need to be prepared with enough water supply once the seeds are planted. Without enough water, the plants will die within a short period of time. So, store big containers of water to ensure there's an adequate amount of water for the plants. Use these ideas to prepare your garden just in time for the spring season.
