VIDEO: Soft Landing Plantings 🌳🌷🦋with Flock Finger Lakes!

August 4, 2023/in Blog, Espoma Videos

Watch Summer Raye Oakes @FlockFingerLakes as she talks about a unique approach for plantings under trees.

Instead of mulching around your trees, Summer suggests planting what is known as a soft landing planting around strategic trees in the landscape. The idea is to plant native herbaceous plant species that provide a “Soft landing” plus critical shelter for insects like moths, butterflies, beetles, etc. to pupae as they fall from trees.

This practice boosts the variety of insects and, in turn, has a positive impact on the growth of bird populations. Additionally, strategic plantings beneath trees serve as a natural barrier, preventing the intrusion of undesirable weeds or deep-rooted grasses.

In the video above Summer uses Espoma Organic Bulb-tone when planting Trillium around her Locust tree. We also recommend using Espoma Organic Bio-tone Starter Plus when planting to help give your plant the nutrients it needs to succeed in its new environment.

VIDEO: Fill Raised Beds for Cheap || Epic Gardening

May 24, 2023/in Blog, Espoma Videos

Filling raised beds with the perfect soil can get pretty expensive. Kevin Espiritu from @Epicgardening is here to help you do it for cheap using Espoma Organic Raised Bed Mix and a variation of the hugelkultur method

While filling raised beds can be expensive, there is a way to fill a garden bed on the cheap. Make use of any existing organic matter on your property (sticks, logs, brush, grass clippings, unfinished compost, etc.) to fill the bottom half of your bed, then fill the remainder with a high-quality soil mix like Espoma Organic Raised Bed Mix.

This method is particularly useful when growing in TALL (18″+) beds, as you don’t need the perfect soil mix all the way down. Over time, the fill material will break down and become food for bacteria, fungi, and other soil life and turn into high-quality soil for your garden over the years.

As always we recommend planting with Espoma Organic Bio-tone Starter Plus and feeding your established raised beds with Espoma Organic Plant-tone or Garden-tone.
