Summer Gardening Tips
Gardening is a rewarding hobby that doesn’t have to take too much time, so long as you keep it small. You don’t need a lot of space so you can start even if you live in a small apartment as long as you get some sunlight.

Hopefully, these summer gardening tips will help you get started on your summer garden. Even if you’re not quite confident in your abilities, try to grow a few simple things at first.

What To Plant This Spring - Early Summer
Don’t wait until it’s too late to start planting and gardening. There are so many options for what you can plant in the garden, but before you get overwhelmed with all of your choices, think about which plants will be best suited for summer and spring weather. Pay close attention to the patterns in your area when you’re making this decision.
Remember that some plants need more care than others do; if you have time to put into gardening this year, then choose something like tomatoes or cucumbers (they require a lot of water in hot climates, as well as frequent fertilizing).
If time is not something you have an abundance of right now, try smaller vegetables like lettuce or spinach instead. These are so easy to care for that you can even cultivate them in a basic windowsill garden!
The only thing left after determining when and what to plant is to head to the store and pick up your seeds. Have fun thinking outside the box and get started with planting your spring and early summer garden today!
