Garden advice and growing decisions

Choose your next garden task

Garden decisions work best when you identify the problem before selecting a tool or product. For an unhealthy plant, first check whether the leaves, roots or stems are affected. Note recent watering, drainage, temperature changes and any visible pests. A symptom can have more than one cause, so avoid treating every yellow leaf as a nutrient deficiency.

Work through the growing conditions

For sowing and transplanting, match the plant to actual soil warmth, moisture and frost risk. Start with the seasonal calendar, then compare the plant’s light and growing needs in the plant directory. If you are choosing materials, ask whether the purchase solves the problem and whether the product fits the available space. The buying guide explains that need-first approach.
