• When weather is wet or cold; allow about twice the germination time listed on the seed packet. If there is no sign of growth after this time, dig around a little to check for sprouted seeds. If you find no signs of life, the seed has probably rotted and you will need to replant.
• Delay organic mulching to allow soil to warm deeply, but act before weeds become established.
• Harden transplants of flowers and vegetables by decreasing water, fertilizer, and growing temperatures. Transplant on a shady day in late afternoon or in early evening to reduce transplant shock. Water with a half strength fertilizer solution. For a few days after transplanting, protect the plants from wind and sun by placing a piece of newspaper or cardboard on their south sides or by covering with jugs, baskets, or flower pots. Water the plants once or twice during the next week.
