You've done all the hard work planning your garden and you finally planted the seeds. Now what? While we're waiting for our crops to grow, we can use this downtime to keep the garden clean and take care of some preventative maintenance. In today's episode, I cover watering, mulching, pest control, and so much more. If you want to make sure you continue to stay ahead of the game as you push closer to harvest time, then this episode is especially for you. Don't let all that hard work go to waste!
