2. • There are many gardening mistakes that people commonly make. It is
important to avoid such mistakes. Problems arise when you plant a new
flower bed, manage the lawn or plant a vegetable patch. Spending your time
and giving your best could be easy and possible, but it is all the more
important to gain proper knowledge about the techniques, so you can make
sure that the garden grows. This is the only way out for ensuring the
prosperity of the garden in the longer run.
• Some of the common gardening mistakes are being discussed in this article
so that you can avoid them when managing your garden.
3. Never use fertilizers towards the end of summer
•Avoiding the use of fertilizers on the shrubs, trees and plants is important when summer
is about to end. This becomes even more important in areas that are susceptible to early
sudden freezes. These areas witness sudden freezes as early as September. If you
fertilize the plants late in the season, then these plants will undergo new growth. This
growth could be susceptible to damages due to frost.
•This would then be impacting the health of the plants. Another issue is that the majority
of the plants would be preparing for winter dormancy period. They usually require rest
after a long growing season.
4. Never scalp the lawn
•Whenever you are cutting the grass, remember to never scalp the lawn. This
would leave it weak and stressed. This will make it vulnerable to weed growth
and diseases. This is because the sunlight would be reaching the exposed soil.
You should try keeping the surface of the lawn at least 3 inches in length
5. Avoid use of herbicides
•Avoiding the use of pre-emergent herbicide on the garden is essential in case
you are planning on laying fresh grass seeds. Weed killing solutions need to be
avoided for at least three weeks after the new seeds have been planted. The
new seeds need to be given the time to start developing. If your lawn has many
weeds, even then try avoiding the herbicides for a short period of time.
6. Avoid the use of stakes
•Do not use stakes for trees. Stakes should never be seen as a means of
planting new trees. The problem is that in majority of the cases, using stakes
would leave the growing tree weaker. A tree can be made to be more resilient
and stronger if it is allowed to bend and move in the wind without staking it.
These are some of the common mistakes that people usually make. This
results in severe damage to the lawn. Hence, it becomes important to avoid
these mistakes so that your lawn can grow and prosper.
