As Christmas is fast approaching, the Little Green Thumbs must add a few more things to the list of preparations before the holidays. In order to have a great garden growing when you return please ensure that the following checklist is taken care of prior to the last day of classes:
- Ensure that all of your seedlings have been transplanted into the self-watering containers- they will dry out very quickly if you don’t!
- Collect a 2 week supply of food for your worms and bury it deep at the bottom of the bins covered by paper and soil. They will be just fine munching away over the break.
- Fill your self-watering containers with water and remember to fertilize.
- Prune and stake plants that will grow large over the holiday.
- Speak with your custodian to ensure the power will be on during the holiday.
- Double check your timer to make sure it is working while you will be away.
Last but not least, prepare to have the best holiday season yet!
