Frequently Asked Questions About Gardening
What do I do with trimmed tree branches?
Wood chippers make tiny chips, while wood splitters leave you with more manageable chunks of wood. After pruning trees and bushes with a gas chainsaw or hedge trimmers, clean up the debris in a wood chipper. If your trees are healthy, the chopped wood and bark chips make mulch that you can spread in your garden. If you removed a tree, you can either get a log splitter or a splitting maul to divide the wood into smaller pieces. A wood splitter is quicker and a wise investment if you're doing an expansive amount of tree cleanup, and the bigger the splitter, the better.
Is it better to use a rake or leaf blower on fallen leaves?
Whether you need the power of a gas leaf blower or the comparatively quieter electric leaf blower, we've got both. Using a leaf blower can help you control the leaves with less physical effort. Electric versions come as corded or cordless leaf blowers. We've also got handheld, walk-behind, and backpack leaf blower models. Leaf vacuums, vacuum-mulcher combo units, or rakes are additional options. Let the gathered leaves turn into mulch and enrich your soil or fill up lawn and leaf bags and take them out to the curb.
How do I store my a string trimmer during the winter?
To maintain outdoor power equipment, clean it before you store it. Check the manufacturer's website or your owner's manual for info on caring for a specific tool. For battery-powered tools, store the batteries in a dry place that won't let them freeze, if possible. Idle gas tools until they sputter dry and then change the oil. It's a bit labor-intensive now, but you'll be glad you maintained your tools when you use them again.
How do I winterize a hose faucet?
Prepare for freezing temps by covering outside faucets with faucet covers. Shutting down the outdoor tap can be put off until washing the car in the driveway or watering the garden is done for the year, but don't wait until the temps drop into the 40s. With all hoses disconnected, turn off the indoor valves that control the spigots, then open the taps and let them run until the water stops. If you have underground sprinklers or an irrigation system, drain those as well as per the manufacturer's instructions. You may need a rental air compressor to get every last drop of water out. Even though your pool is winterized by now, you may be able to prepare for next summer by searching for sales on a pool vacuum and pool cover. That way, you'll be all set for the cold now and the heat later.
What tools do I need for snow removal?
In climates where it gets cold and snowy, preparing your snow removal tools is key. Snow blowers are great, but keep a snow shovel or two to clean trouble spots or chip away ice patches. Find one-, two-, and three-stage snow blowers in electric and gas options. People with larger driveways may consider using a spreader to fling the ice melt or salt to clear the way to the car or mailbox. Prepare now before the snow starts falling.
The Home Depot Garden Center at Toms River
Colder temperatures often mean you've wrapped up the outdoor work and gardening for the season. However, if you're motivated and it's not freezing outside, there's usually a project to do. In the meantime, enjoy your plants indoors. Read on for more on final leaf and tree cleanup, indoor gardening, enhancing next year's garden bed, or making the most of a slightly warmer day.
Leaf Upkeep and Tree Maintenance in Warmer Climates
When cold winter temps rise enough, take advantage of it to do outdoor maintenance. Bushes and trees need a trim with pole saws, pruners, and chainsaws. Fallen leaves are often still a concern in warmer climates, so check out leaf blowers, yard waste bags, and rakes. Also, remember to get buckets and a wheelbarrow to easily transport leaves and branches. Of course, if you've got snow on the ground, you're off the hook until it melts and the ground thaws.
Raise Indoor Plants
An indoor garden of greenery is lovely, so create an oasis of house plants within your home. A covered porch or sunroom is a great place to encourage plant growth, especially with pots and plant stands of all sizes. Your spring flower seed choices, whether they're annuals or perennials, can also often get an indoor start once we turn the corner toward warmer weather.
Many types of plants will thrive indoors, from bonsai trees to fruit trees to traditional potted plants like monsteras. Succulents are drought resistant, and low-maintenance plants are great for nervous gardeners. If you have furry friends, be sure to look for cat-safe indoor plants or dog-safe plants. Just make sure they get enough water, and turn the planter pots regularly to give all leaves equal sunlight for photosynthesis. Be sure to add dishes beneath the pots to catch any extra water if they don't have built-in overflow dishes.
Swap Soil for Air
For a different type of indoor planting, try hydroponic gardening. Hydroponics are an unconventional choice for indoor gardens. You can also keep them going year-round if outdoor raised beds aren't an option or the existing soil is hard clay, rocks, or sand.
A hydroponic garden uses water infused with nutrients and fertilizer to keep plants growing in a substrate that's not dirt — like perlite, sand, or rock chips. Use it to grow veggies and herbs this way. It's also sometimes used to grow a few types of succulents.
Spread Nutrients
Give your house plants a nutritious place to grow with fertilizer and proper soil. Potted plants all do best with specialty potting soil. Succulents need a sandier soil mix that allows for lots of drainage. For optimal results, always match your soil to your plants when transplanting to larger containers.
Fertilizer replenishes and adds nutrients and trace minerals that your soil may lack. Fill in the blanks with fertilizer. We carry many types of organic and non-organic plant fertilizers to keep your indoor plants happy and healthy.
Add Decorative Mulch and Retaining Wall Blocks
On days when you'd like to garden but the growing season is over, consider planning for the spring instead. Measure the perimeter of your garden and crunch some numbers to see how many retaining wall blocks you'd need to accent or surround your garden. While you're at it, use our mulch calculator to figure out how much you'll need to buy when the temperatures warm. Give your garden a finished look with rubber mulch. It overwinters well and resists fading longer than other mulches.
Warm the Outdoors with an Outdoor Fireplace
Stretch out warmer winter evenings with a fire pit, outdoor fireplace, or patio heater to take off the chill. No matter if you're looking for outdoor heaters for decks, small patios, or cozy porches, we've got options. All you have to do is find the one that matches your decor style.
We've got fire bowls and fire pit tables ready to warm your outdoor space. Check out stylish propane and natural gas fire pits in a variety of shapes. We've also got woodburning fire pits and the firewood to stoke them. You can even build your own with fire pit kits or make it completely custom and build an in-ground fire pit to fit your vision with pavers that lead to and surround the pit. Stop by your closest garden center to see what's in stock.
