Ep 122 | What To Plant When The Spring Garden Slows

This week on Growing Gardeners, we’re talking about one of the most important mindset shifts a gardener can make.  It's this:  A slowing garden is not a dying garden. It’s a transitioning garden. As spring crops begin to tire and summer heat moves in, many gardeners feel overwhelmed wondering: What do I pull out? What do I plant next? Is my season over? Do I need to start over? But healthy gardens are not built in isolated seasons. They move in rhythms.

In This Episode You'll Learn:

How to transition your garden slowly instead of all at once

The beauty of succession planting

Why planting with the moon helps gardeners work with natural rhythms

How to overlap seasons for a garden that produces 52 weeks a year

What heat-loving crops to plant when spring vegetables begin slowing down

Why summer gardening can actually be the easiest season for busy women

Learning how to “move with the seasons” instead of fighting them

Follow This To Know What To Do Next

Quit While You're Ahead (what is no longer serving your garden)

Protect What's Producing (these guys get all the attention)

Plant With Purpose (strategically decide what you are planting, why, and where)
