Burn garden rubbish and plants infected by diseases.

Rake up all leaves and place them on a compost heap. If left on paths they become a hazard when the colder weather comes.

Greenhouse paths should be repaired now from general wear and tear.(reposition tilted slabs)

Paint fences with wood preservative now that leaves have fallen and plants are not obstructing them.

Clean all garden tools and wipe metal surfaces with an oily rag. (lawn rakes, edging-shears, spades and hoes)

GARDENS AROUND THE WORLD:

If you do not have a good place to make compost, a plastic garbage bag works okay. Just put you leaves, household wastes, etc. into the bag, add some soil, seal it up and let it form compost. To rotate the contents, just flip over the bag from time to time.

Prepare next years garden by laying down black plastic (I incorporated concrete block pathways in mine). Next spring all you have to do is dig your hole & plant. Weed free!!!

In the fall I start taking out all my garden tools and get them in top condition for the next spring time plantings.I also prune all my large trees because i live in the southern region and we have a lot of tropical storms and hurricanes. This way i dont have to worry as much about limbs being snapped off. I start mulching around all my garden plants and this way it will look great for next spring! i hope you enjoyed reading my gardening tips fo fall.

Do as much garden clean-up in the fall so you won't have as much to do in the spring.

put newspaper around plants and then mulch...the paper breaks down and is good for plants
