October is a pivotal time in the garden: neither the end of the season nor the beginning of winter, but a gentle transition to new harvests. This garden log describes, step by step, what you can do — from planting to mulching — to effectively prepare for spring. And for that, there's nothing better than adding a little Fertilaine to your autumn routine.
Harvests, Winter Crops and Seedlings
- Autumn sowing (under cover): salads, spinach, chard, carrots, radishes, cabbage in a greenhouse or shelter.
Prepare the soil and orchard
- Planting fruit trees (apple, pear, plum, walnut), as well as small fruits (raspberries, blackberries).
- Cleaning the vegetable garden, adding compost or organic amendments like Fertilaine to nourish the soil until spring. :Flowers and protection
- Plant spring-flowering bulbs (tulips, daffodils, crocuses, muscari, etc.).
- Protect perennials, rhizomes or tender plants with mulch or a veil.
General maintenance
- Rake up dead leaves, apply mulch (wood chips, compost) to protect the soil.
- Clean greenhouses or shelters, prepare the structure for winter (disinfection, insulation).
- Divide perennials, weed, prepare flower beds.
Why Fertilaine is perfect for autumn
In autumn, roots explore, but leaves slow down. Fertilaine provides:
- Gradual nutrition without risk of over-fertilization.
- Accelerated organic composting and a better structured soil.
- Optimal support for winter seedlings, plantings, and bulbs.
