Although we have a model of warming in South Dakota, those who strive to have a thriving garden this summer can start planning now. My family loves to build the fruits of our work (intended for pun) are so rewarding. As we knock on the door of March, there are some things we can do to move on this perfect garden now.
1. Prepare the dirt: During soft days without snow, clean the garden of debris that accumulates throughout the winter. Although it is too early to plant seeds outdoors, clean the vines, stems, roots or old vegetation that were not removed before the beginning of winter. It feels good to go out and start!
Tomatoes
Peppers
Eggplants
Broccoli
Cauliflower
Herbs (such as basil and parsley)
Start with good dirt: I would offer a good mix for starting seeds for your containers. Miracle Gro is a great mix.
3. Watering: Keep the soil moist, but not too wet and wet. Using a spray bottle can help prevent excessively, while allowing gentle moisture.
4. Labeling: Children will have fun with this. And if they mistaken broccoli, even better 
Large your seedlings with the name of the plant and dates to keep track of what you have planted.
