The Perfect Time to Garden: Is Not Necessarily Right Now

Gardening is often considered to be just a hobby. To gardeners - it is our passion. We devour gardening tools, books, and websites to help us on our quest, but there is one question that is often not asked. Exactly at what time in the season should we be doing certain gardening tasks. Doing the correct chore at the wrong time can harm your plants and at best add hours of needless work. There is an old axiom, "The perfect time to act is NOW". Not so with gardening. Nature has her own timing and plants, animals, and insects are perfectly synced to this clock. We as gardeners need to learn her signs so that we can do our gardening at just the perfect time.
