Flower Power Garden Hour 174: April To Do, Asparagus growing tips, & Listener Q&A
Manage episode 360224806 series 2098199
It is the April To Do List, and the persistent wet and cold weather is still here in the west. Nevertheless, we are getting warmer, longer days and spring will soon be in full effect.
We also spend some time reviewing asparagus growing tips, as it is a popular question amongst listeners.
It is time to plant:
- Vegetables: Eggplant, squash, corn, cucumbers, swiss chard, jicama, okra, melons, peppers, sweet potatoes, watermelons
- Flowers: Perennials, dahlias, sunflower seeds
Chores include:
- Weed
- Prune once flowering shrubs
- Mulch
- Watch for insects
We finish up with a Listener Q&A section. Topics covered include:
- Rhubarb – growing tips
- What kind of trees will grow well in full sun in the Central Valley/Foothills
- Red clover – recommendations for using as nitrogen fixer
- Cherry tomatoes – advice on early season transplanting to larger containers, and where/how to move outside (especially if cold still)
