You can plant directly in the garden seeds of carrots, beets, lettuce, spinach and turnips. Indoors you can start seeds for broccoli, cabbage, kale, bunching onions, and radicchio.
Be sure to monitor your watering system. Check for coverage and watch for plugged or blocked sprinklers.
Continue to weed. Be especially sure to get weeds before they flower and set seeds.
Check the mulch you have spread around and be sure it is thick enough to suppress weeds. (3 to 4 inches)
Cut off spent flowers of perennials and annuals for continued bloom.
