Just because the weather hasn’t warmed up yet, it doesn’t mean you can’t get a head start in order to have a great garden in the spring!

In fact, you can even plant in February to get ahead, but these 6 things will put you on the fast track to having a beautiful, bountiful garden in the spring!

FEBRUARY GARDENING: HOW TO HAVE A GREAT GARDEN IN THE SPRING

1. MAP YOUR GARDEN

The easiest thing you can do before you start planting is to map out your garden. This way, you’ll know exactly what to plant where and when. Draw a simple map of your garden and divide it into square feet, so you’ll know how many seeds you can plant in that square foot. Below is an example of how many seeds you can plant per square foot for a few different plants. You should also pay special attention to companion plants: which plants can be planted together and which cannot.

2. ORDER SEEDS

Now is the perfect time to start ordering your seeds! If possible, try to get only organic seeds for a healthier crop. Now is the time to plan what you’ll want to grow and how much of it.
