Top Gardening Jobs for June

June brings longer days and warmer weather, making it the perfect time to get out and enjoy your garden. Here are some of our top jobs for getting done in June to keep your garden looking its best.

Watering and Irrigation

With the increasing temperatures, it's crucial to ensure your plants are well hydrated. Water them early in the morning to minimise evaporation.

Weeding

Keep your garden looking tidy by regularly checking and removing weeds as soon as you spot them. Using bark chippings can help suppress weed growth by providing a barrier to stop sunlight from passing through.

Lawn Care

Keep your lawn in peak condition by mowing regularly and watering. Applying a lawn top dressing can help to promote health growth and keep your lawn looking vibrant.

Support for Plants

As your plants grow, they may need additional support to prevent damage. Use stakes for tall plants like delphiniums and tomatoes to keep them upright, and trellises for climbing plants like sweat peas and beans.

Harvesting

If you have been growing your own fruit & veg, you can start to harvest early crops including strawberries, radishes and salad greens. Pick produce regularly to encourage more growth and prevent plants from bolting.

General Maintenance

Keep your garden looking its best by cleaning patios, decks and garden furniture.

Happy gardening!
