Frequently Asked Questions About Gardening
What are good ways to get rid of weeds?
Weeds are likely poking through in the garden beds, even if you put down mulch or a fabric liner to keep them at bay. Pull weeds from the root in edible gardens, and dig up the roots if the weed snapped off without them. Be sure to get rid of weeds before they go to seed. If you'd like to treat weeds with weed killer, check that it's safe for bees, other pollinators, and pets — and wear a respirator and heavy-duty rubber gloves to ensure that it doesn't touch your skin or your lungs.
How do I fix yellow grass?
Just rehydrate those roots. The solution for how to get burnt grass green again is easy: Fix the burnt spot with a good long drink, then continue to water it regularly. It should perk up over the course of a week. The method for how to treat grass from dog urine isn't as simple. Grass damaged by pets must be removed, neutralized, and replanted in fresh soil with new grass, sod, or patch and repair grass seed.
Is it good to have a vertical garden?
As the veggies and plants grow, keeping your harvest healthy is easier. You can see any pests or evidence of wildlife eating your produce and treat the issue as you see fit. When your fruits and vegetables mature and are ready to pick, you'll see them immediately, so you can enjoy them at peak freshness. If these same plants grow along the ground, it's easy to miss your first harvest under the shadowy leaves. Supporting the plants as they grow upright means your upkeep will be less overwhelming when you harvest your garden veggies.
How do I keep my veggie plants healthy?
After you've planted your plants or flowers, ensure they're well-fed and hydrated. Choose a synthetic or an organic fertilizer that fits your needs and give your garden a boost. You can even find one that's formulated for the plants you're growing, whether you need a flower fertilizer, vegetable fertilizer, or a general garden fertilizer blend. Only apply as often as recommended on the packaging. More is not better here. Be sure to water immediately after, as directed, so the plants won't be burned by the fertilizer.
Do patio misters cool the air?
When you need a break from gardening in the sun, shelter under a patio umbrella or covered gazebo. Attach awnings and shade sails to the house or shed for shade. However, sometimes shade isn't enough because it's too humid. That's when a patio mister or misting fan can help cool the air and turn a stifling afternoon into a refreshingly relaxing day. Go back to swinging in a hammock when that water-cooled air is ready.
What do you carry for backyard entertaining?
Backyard entertaining is whatever you find enjoyable — it doesn't have to be a cookout. Some focus on the grill or fire pit, while others concentrate on yard games. Many people simply relax outdoors and chat all day. However you bond with friends, you can extend the fun into the evening with proper outdoor lighting. For best results, learn how to rid your yard of pesky mosquitos, too.

Continue watering your plants regularly to enjoy a stunning summer garden — and maybe even run through the sprinkler yourself. With such a beautiful garden and yard, it's easy to create holiday memories to look back on.
As the calendar turns to summer, your landscaping and garden will weather more intense heat and UV rays than earlier in the season. That means you'll want to consider how to keep things cool with proper tending, shade, and irrigation. Just like we can get sunburned, flowers and grass can dry out, and trees can lose their leaves prematurely. We've got advice to make it through the hotter months.
Grow a Healthy Lawn
If you're concerned that your lawn has dry and crispy blades of grass, don't worry just yet. It's possible that you've got a cool season grass that basically goes to sleep and turns brown in the blazing summer sun. If that's the case, it won't be a patchy brown, but brown everywhere. See if the roots are alive by tugging on a blade of grass: If it comes right out, the grass is probably dead and you'll need to replace it with grass seed or sod. If the piece of grass doesn't pull right out, it's dormant. That means it's growing and resting underground. Water dormant grass deeply once or twice every week, but avoid fertilizer.
Warm-season grass stays green in the summer. If you have this kind of lawn, water it deeply once a week. Give it another drink every day or two, depending on your weather. Make sure not to overwater, and let the lawn dry out after heavy rains before you get out the sprinkler or hose again. Water your lawn when the top two inches of soil is dry to the touch. You can test with your finger. This might happen quicker than you'd think during extreme hot spells or periods of drought. It's ok to let it grow a little taller this time of the year, as cutting it too short isn't healthy for this kind of lawn.
Watch Your Garden Thrive
You'll need to water your garden between rainstorms to keep the summer flowering going. A general rule when watering flowers is to aim the water at the roots. A garden hose, sprinkler, or drip irrigation system will do the job. You don't need to water or even mist the blooms themselves. Many flowers droop and wilt when they get but recover when they dry off. Succulents are the exception to basic watering rules, so look up your specific types of succulents to optimize their care.
In addition to watering them regularly, monitor your plants' nutrient intake. Apply fertilizer as recommended. We've even got fertilizers to match the plants you're growing so they'll enjoy a balanced diet with the correct nutrients.
Grow Your Own Herbs
For savory flavors to accent your homegrown produce, try herb gardening. It's easy to learn how to grow herbs indoors, but you can raise herbs outdoors, too. If you grow herbs outdoors, stick to heat-loving herbs that'll endure the summer temperatures, and consider a hanging herb garden.
Planting herbs in the ground can be tricky, as many of them — especially mint — are invasive and will take over your yard. So just keep them in small decorative pots on a sunny porch, window sill, or even in wall planters. Herbs also work well in a hydroponic garden, which means they don't grow in soil. Instead, they grow in a mix of sand, rock chips, or perlite.
Trees as Natural Shade
Trees are a stunning and natural source of shade, and they can change the look of your yard. Whether you plant a few trees or a small forest, remember this is a long-term commitment. Trees live many decades when they're healthy. Before you shop, plan so you know how to plant a tree, whether they're evergreens, deciduous tree saplings, or more mature trees.
A backyard woodland may be the stuff of dreams, but research the trees you're planting beforehand. Consider how deep the taproots go, how far the root ball extends outward, and the full-grown size of the trees. Plant your trees far from water pipes, as their strong roots will seek water and wend into piping to get it. As majestic as trees are, it's important to also consider how and where they'd fall if a significant storm or disease weakened them. If you've planned accordingly, found trees you love, and know the ideal places to put them, get planting. That way, you can enjoy natural shade and the soothing sound of leaves rustling in the breeze sooner rather than later.
