Regularly water your garden to provide the right amount of moisture for each plant variety. Check the soil twice a week and water when the top inch is dry. Weed the garden weekly to prevent weeds from competing with other plants for water and nutrients. Inspect plants once a week for signs of disease or pests, as neglect can cause all plants to die. Keep pets out of the garden or restrict them to certain areas to protect plant growth.

2. 1) Water regularly
• You should water your garden
regularly to make sure you
are providing the amount of
water necessary for the
specific plant varieties.
• Also try to check soil
moisture levels at least twice
weekly, water most plants
when the top inch of soil
begins to dry, so that the top 6
inches of soil are moist but
not soggy.

3. 2) Remove weeds
• You should weed the bed of
your garden at the very least
on a weekly basis. Prompt
removal of any weeds you
find will help to stop the
plants establishing
themselves in your garden.
• If left your other plants could
die due to the weeds taking
any available moisture.

4. 3) Check plants weekly
• An important thing you will
want to do is check over your
plants once a week for any
signs of disease or pest
problems.
• If you don’t it will most likely
lead to all of your plants
dying due to not being looked
after.

5. 4) Keep pets out
• If you have any pets such as
dogs or cats you may find that
your garden does not look as
good as it could.
• A Possible solution to this is
keeping your pets out of
certain areas of the garden or
segregating them to one side
of it.
