Spring Planting in Full Swing
Every gardener has got their hands into some dirt. The planting
season is a wonderful time of year. As you plant your victory garden,
just be sure to provide your young plants protection against frost, cold
weather and strong winds. Help young transplants to get their feet established
into their new home. And, enjoy watching them grow!
Indoor Plant Starts - Starting seeds indoors to transplant later,
is one of the early joys of gardening. Why let the garden stores have all

the basics of seed starting, and seedling care. As a rule of thumb, most
indoor starts should be planted six to eight weeks before the last frost
in your area.

and a vast army of other pests. Check out the Buffet Buster! It ends their
snack time...period.
