Summer is over now yet it seems the heat will never end here in Southern California! This week on “In The Garden with UC Master Gardeners”, Teena and Katrina get you out in the garden to start the tasks that you have been planning since last month’s episode. Three basic tasks for the month are first, finish cleaning up. Next, do what it takes to get your soil in good shape. If new to gardening, testing the soil for any deficiencies is a great way to set a foundation for future years of great gardening. Add amendments and fertilizers according to what you intend to plant. And lastly, start planting those varieties you’ve been thinking about all September long. Cool season veggies thrive in the southwest. This is the time in most climate zones to plant winter flowers, spring bulbs, natives, and wildflowers. You’ll learn a bit about Climate Zones, too. Here’s a harvest tip: Pick your produce in the morning!
