We live in the middle of the woods, where we face many challenges, such as deer, rabbits, and deep shade. One challenge we never face, though, is the availability of mulch. In late winter after all the trees have dropped their leaves, we rake them into an empty spot in the yard. My husband then mows over them several times, shredding them into a fine leaf mold and litter. I then bucket up this gift of nature and mulch our many garden beds with it. This is easier and more economical\u2014and has less of a carbon footprint\u2014than purchasing volumes of bagged mulch from the big-box stores. And there is the added benefit of mulch renewal every year.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: right;\"><em>\u2014Katherine Coker, McDonough, Georgia<\/em><\/p>\n<h3>2. Upcycle spice containers for the garden<\/h3>\n<\/p>\n<p>Spice up your meal, then \u201cspice\u201d up your garden! Those spice containers that have an inside sifter cap with five or more holes can be repurposed for dispensing dry fertilizer or seeds in your garden.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: right;\"><em>\u2014Donna Gilly, Kenmore, Washington<\/em><\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<h3>3. Don\u2019t just toss those leaves<\/h3>\n<p>When I separate seedlings into individual pots, I take any disease-free leaves that may have fallen off the plants and place them at the bottom of a pot over the drainage hole to prevent any soil loss. These leaves eventually decompose and add their nutrients to a plant with the same nutritional requirements.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: right;\"><em>\u2014Mary Crum, Bonita Springs, Florida<\/em><\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<h3>4. Take the necessary steps when planting<\/h3>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">When putting a new plant in the ground, \u201cstep it in.\u201d Carefully place your foot around the plant and give it your full weight, all the way around. Plants can\u2019t eat or drink if soil is not fully contacting their roots.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: right;\"><em>\u2014Catherine LeDuc Hostetler<\/em><\/p>\n<hr\/>\n<h2><em>Gardening Tips Submitted on <a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/FineGardeningMagazine\">Facebook<\/a><\/em><\/h2>\n<hr\/>\n<h3>5. One-stop gardening<\/h3>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">When you\u2019re down on the ground, don\u2019t just plant. Instead, do everything you can within your reach\u2014till the soil, weed, pick up debris, fertilize\u2014and then move on to the next spot.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: right;\"><em>\u2014Jeff Lightbody<\/em><\/p>\n<h3>6. Get \u2019em cheap, treat \u2019em with care<\/h3>\n<p>Buy shrubs and trees from big-box stores in early spring to take advantage of the lower cost. Often they are root-bound and grown close together, so their branches are short. I detangle their roots, put them into larger pots, and slowly prune them to encourage side growth. With the benefit of fertilizer, water, and sun over spring, summer, and early fall, their roots start growing outward, and their shapes are much improved. I then plant them in the ground in the fall.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: right;\"><em>\u2014Kathleen Louise<\/em><\/p>\n<h3>7. Self-control at the nursery<\/h3>\n<p>Don\u2019t overbuy from the nursery in one trip; only purchase what you can plant in the next week comfortably. You lose your creativity when forced to finish the chore.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: right;\"><em>\u2014Patricia Anderson<\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>Photos: courtesy of the contributors<\/em><\/p>\n<hr\/>\n<p><strong>We need your gardening tips!<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Send your tips to\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/www.finegardening.com\/cdn-cgi\/l\/email-protection#5d3b3a1d293c2833293233733e3230\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><span class=\"__cf_email__\" data-cfemail=\"701617300411051e041f1e5e131f1d\">[email\u00a0protected]<\/span><\/a>\u00a0and please include high-resolution photos if possible.
