Sod should be laid properly. You will need to prepare your lawn soil before laying the sod. Remove the weeds, then break up the soil into fine tilth. Gently compact the soil until it is flattened. The soil should always receive adequate moisture. Lay the sod down in alternated rows, keeping the joints set off from one another. Make sure the sod is firmly placed to ensure a surface that is sufficiently flat and even. Also, make sure to use soil to fill the areas where there are gaps in the sod. For the best results, you need to water the sod every day for a two week period. After this time the sod will have rooted into the soil and can be now walked on.

Try not to cause shock to your plants by gradually changing their conditions and temperature. The first day you transfer your plants, you should only allow them to sit in direct sunlight for a few hours. Slowly, day after day, you can leave your plants outside for a little longer. After one week, the plants should be fully acclimated and ready to move outside.

A great horticulture tip to use is to always select types of plants that are more likely to produce a high yield. Traditional strains are often out-performed by hybrids that have been bred for cold tolerance or disease resistance.

Cover fences and walls with lots of climbers. Plants that grow as climbers are quite versatile, helping you hide ugly walls or fences, many times within only one season of growth. They can be trained to grow over an arbor, or through trees and shrubs that are already in the garden. Sometimes the plants will require being tied to supports, but some climbers will attach themselves naturally. Some dependable types include honeysuckle, clematis, jasmine, climbing roses, and wisteria.

When you are tending your garden in the fall, be on the alert for stink bugs. They like beans, peppers, tomatoes and many fruits. If they are left in the garden, they can do great damage to your plants, so you should do whatever you can to eliminate them.

As was stated in the beginning of the article, gardening is not hard to accomplish if you know what you are doing. With these tips, and enough practice, you too can craft a beautiful and enjoyable garden.
