With May fast approaching and the weather warming up, it'll be time to get on with our next batch of gardening jobs! This particular month will see flowers bud and flourish, more animals and insects around & probably an overgrown lawn! From sowing seeds to cleaning bird feeders, here are some jobs that'll keep your gardens thriving through the month of May.
Get Watering
Now would be the perfect time to start watering your crops and lawn. Tomatoes, cucumber, courgettes & other fruit & veg will be getting thirsty due to the weather heating up so giving them a good drink of water will help them continue to thrive. The same goes for your lawn. As the sun starts to shine, you'll want to make sure your lawn grows healthily. At HSS, we have a range of watering products that'll help you water your plants both indoors and outdoors. From hoses, sprayers and watering cans, there's something to suit your needs.
Apply Lawn Feed
Another way to help your lawn's health is by applying lawn feed. With added nutrients that soak into the soil, lawn feed contributes to your grass growing greener, stronger & most importantly, healthier. Check out our range of lawn feed here.
Continuing Sowing Seeds
Although we are approaching the middle of the year, it doesn't mean we don't stop planting seeds. May will be the time to start sowing seeds so our primrose flowers, sunflowers, beetroot, carrots, radish, sweetcorn, turnips and more can grow in time for the late summer or early winter time. If you need some tools to help you get the ground ready for seed sowing, we have a selection of digging and cultivating tools available to buy.
