Hey gardeners, Ken Lain here! As we transition from fall to winter, many of you are busy raking leaves. But did you know those leaves can actually be beneficial to your garden? 🍂
Leaves are like garden gold! They decompose quickly, creating a nutrient-rich compost that improves soil health and attracts beneficial organisms like earthworms and mycorrhizal fungi. Use them as mulch around your plants to insulate the soil, prevent weeds, and add valuable organic matter.
But don't let leaves pile up too thickly, especially on top of other plants. A layer of 2-3 inches is ideal. Too many leaves can smother plants and create a haven for pests and diseases.
And speaking of leaves, those pine needles can also be beneficial in moderation. They provide insulation and suppress weeds, but avoid excessive buildup.
So, rake those leaves, spread them around your garden, and let nature work its magic!
