Gardening London recommendations before the summer months

LONDON - March 31, 2016 - PRLog -- Gardening is a hobby that calls for special skills and techniques. Being equipped with this arsenal of skills is vital to maintain a green garden, healthy, especially through summer - the hottest and driest season of the year. As the temperature rises before and through summer, cleaning the garden will help to ensure you have a beautifully maintained garden.

Before the summer season arrives, make sure you give the garden a complete clean. One way to do this is by getting rid of debris, such as twigs and dead leaves, as well as any rubbish. Weeding the garden would be recommended as well, since it eliminates the need for plants to compete for water during summer.

Infected plants have the opportunity of spreading diseases to other plants and the warm summer temperatures would be just right for illnesses to spread. That is why, it's crucial to discard all infected plants if there are any around the garden.

When to begin

The perfect time one should start cleaning one's garden in preparation for summer is a week or two before the summer season. This will provide enough time for all issues in the garden to be sorted before the summer arrives.

Keeping it fresh and spotless throughout summer time

In addition to working on the garden before summer time, it is equally imperative to do gardening in order to maintain a clean and fresh garden. One way to do this is by keeping one's garden disease and pests free.

Diseases and pests in the garden usually peak during summer time. Thus, it's crucial to watch out for these things as they can destroy plants. The earlier they are found and removed, the better it is going to be for plants.

Water is an important element for the growth of plants. Thus, it is very important to ensure plants are provided with enough water to ensure they are fresh during summer. It's important to remember that when watering plants, the water should go to the roots of the plants and not on the surface of the leaves. Water on the surface of the leaves will facilitate illnesses. Apart from water, sufficient sunlight will aid in avoiding diseases. Therefore, it is important to ensure plants receive the ideal amount of sunlight.

Additionally, one could cover exposed soil around the garden, with mulch. The mulch can work as a barrier to keep water from evaporating, eventually preventing dehydration.

It's also highly recommended to add fertilizers to plants during the summer season to provide them with vital nutrients for their growth. However, that shouldn't be done in instances of extreme heat and drought, as this could stress out plants.

Deadheading plants throughout summer time will help maintain a neat and clean garden. Besides, deadheading also promotes blooming.

Finally, to keep the garden healthy throughout summer time, it is recommended to clean it beforehand. To learn more tips on Gardening London, please remember to ring 020 3322 6097 or take a look at this site - http://www.fast-landscape-gardening.co.uk
