CRAIGS MONTHLY TIPS

August

Craig talks us through his top tips for this month.

  1. Get watering your house plants! With the weather heating up and more sunshine coming, your indoor plants will be needing more water.
  2. Regularly dead head your plants. By taking off dead flowers you will encourage new growth, for longer displays through the season.
  3. Collect seeds from your plants and store them for next year, free plants, yay!
  4. Work on your lawn. Your grass may be a little scorched, it's best to not cut it too short when it's so sunny. Keep it a little longer than usual to avoid damage. 
  5. Open vents and doors of your greenhouses on warmer days. You may also want to consider shading them to stop your plants from scorching.
  6. Keep ponds and water features topped up. The warm weather will be drying everything out, so make sure to keep an eye on water levels.
