| Growing Vegetables and Herbs In Containers Talking Gardening with Doug Now that it is late February, this is the best time to plan and prepare for container gardens on your patio, deck, balcony, or in your landscape gardens. Before we get started you need to ask yourself “do I have enough sun to successfully grow herbs and vegetables?” Keep in mind that vegetables and herbs are sun lovers and need a minimum of six to eight hours of direct sunlight to grow well and produce. If you answer the question with a “yes” then we can proceed further. And, I can’t think of any vegetable or herb that can’t be grown successfully in a container. Just to let you know that I AM A CONTAINER GARDENING NUT! Get started with Container Gardening

| Starting Seeds Bonnie's Garden Right now is a good time to start thinking about starting seeds for outdoor planting. Seed packets will tell you to start a certain number of weeks before our average last frost date. Some people will tell you mid-April is our last frost date. I’ll remind you that last spring we had SNOW after mid-April and a killing frost the end of April. I count back from May 1, just to be safe. Let's start some seeds!

| Crabgrass, A Real Pain in the Grass! Talking Gardening with Doug It’s a good phrase, don’t you think? Crabgrass is the number one weed in lawns here in Virginia. It is now mid-February and now is the best time to be thinking about applying a pre-emergence herbicide to control crabgrass. To be successful in controlling the growth of crabgrass is to have a good understanding of its life cycle. | |
