|
<p>Just like a well-investigated claim, a thriving garden needs the right foundation. Here's my seasonal planting guide for the Wilmington area:</p>
|
||
|
|
<h3>Spring (March - May)</h3>

<h2>Soil Health</h2>
|
||
|
|
<p>The truth is in the soil, just like the truth is in the data. Here's how to keep your soil healthy:</p>
|
||
|
|
<ul>
|
||
|
|
<li><strong>Test your soil:</strong> Know your pH and nutrient levels</li>
|
||
|
|
<li><strong>Add organic matter:</strong> Compost, aged manure, leaf mold</li>
|
||
|
|
<li><strong>Rotate crops:</strong> Prevent nutrient depletion and disease</li>
|
||
|
|
<li><strong>Mulch:</strong> Retain moisture and suppress weeds</li>
|
||
|
|
<li><strong>Cover crops:</strong> Protect and enrich soil over winter</li>
|
||
|
|
</ul>
|
||
|
|

|
||
|
|
<h2>Pest Management</h2>
|
||
|
|
<p>Like investigating a claim, pest management requires careful observation and targeted action:</p>
|
||
|
|
<ul>
|
||
|
|
<li><strong>Identify the pest:</strong> Know your enemy before acting</li>
|
||
|
|
<li><strong>Monitor regularly:</strong> Catch problems early</li>
|
||
|
|
<li><strong>Use barriers:</strong> Row covers, netting, copper tape</li>
|
||
|
|
<li><strong>Encourage beneficials:</strong> Ladybugs, lacewings, birds</li>
|
||
|
|
<li><strong>Targeted treatments:</strong> Neem oil, insecticidal soap, Bt</li>
|
||
|
|
</ul>
