Plant Sentry’s Spring Checklist

Plant Sentry’s Spring Checklist

Ready to get your Spring planting underway? Us too!

There’s always a few important things that we like to remind ourselves of every Spring before we start planting and we thought this year, we’d share them with you.

When it comes to planting your spring garden, you can never be too careful. Despite the simple and relaxing act of gardening, there’s a lot more to it than that. As always, Plant Sentry™ focuses on more of the little things that can quickly impact your gardening efforts.

Here at Plant Sentry™, we know that the smallest changes can make the biggest impact on your garden efforts. That’s why we prioritize what we see as the BIG 3: Invasive Pests, Invasive Plants, and Plant Diseases.

These 3 categories require patience and due diligence in order to be successful. But just how do you know you’re looking for the right things? That’s why we’re here! 

So without further adieu here’s our Spring Checklist:

  1. Inspect the plant inside and out before you take it home! Check under the leaves and along the soil line for any pests.

2.Check for any possible signs of disease. This can include leaf discoloration.

3.Order plants for your growing zone. If you’re unsure what your zone is, visit the USDA’s website on growing zones

4.Before making any purchases, check your State’s local list of invasive species in your area. 

5.Plant with care and love! Plants are living just like you and me, a little bit of love goes a long way!

Wishing you happy gardening!
