1
Find the Sun: Veggies typically need at least six hours of sun per day.
2
Condition Your Soil: Amend to loosen compacted soil, conserve moisture, and add organic matter for healthier plants.
3
Focus on Root Growth: Add a starter fertilizer to quickly establish strong, healthy root growth before summer heat.
4
Continue Feeding: Fertilize with organics to encourage more fruit and veggies over leaf growth.
