Simple First Steps for the Urban Grower

Spring is here, and it’s the perfect time to shake off the winter blues and get your garden or
houseplant collection ready for the growing season. Whether you’re working with a balcony, a
windowsill, or a collection of indoor pots, there are a few beginner-friendly things to do right
now.

Spring Gardening To-Do List for Beginners:

● Declutter your garden space. Sweep balconies, clean pots, and recycle anything you
don’t plan to reuse.
● Inspect your houseplants. Look for signs of new growth and trim away any dead or
damaged leaves.
● Check for pests. Spring warmth can bring bugs—look closely under leaves and around
stems.
● Refresh your potting soil. Either repot or top off containers with fresh soil for a nutrient
boost.

Tip: Don’t rush to plant outdoors just yet. Watch your local frost dates—spring can be sneaky!
