Get your garden ready for fall with practical October tips for lawns, cool-weather vegetables, fruit trees, and landscape plantings.
In Episode 149 of Gardening with Daddy Pete, Melvin and Jay York share what to plant and prepare as temperatures cool. They explain why a soil test should come before lawn seeding or repairs, and how topsoil with composted cow manure can help improve the soil beneath seed or sod.
They also cover cool-season crops you can still plant in early October, including lettuce, greens, cabbage, and onions. For fruit trees and berry bushes, fall is a good time to plant, and the right planting mix can help new roots get established. Plus, learn how to space evergreen border trees properly so they have room for airflow and healthy growth.
The episode also includes fall harvest recipe ideas, upcoming customer appreciation events, and a reminder to check that Daddy Pete's Plant Pleaser name appears on the bag when shopping for products.
