Thursday Zone: Pruning and Cleanup

I'm excited to kick off today's tutorial by sharing my Thursday zone garden maintenance routine. This is the day dedicated to pruning and cleanup tasks. So let's begin!

Firstly, I'm going to plunge into pruning. Proper pruning helps stimulate growth, maintain plant shape, and remove any diseased or dead branches. I highly recommend using the Felco 2 Pruners for this task. These pruners are ergonomic, durable, and provide precise cuts. You can find them on Amazon using the following link: [Felco 2 Pruners](http://bit.ly/2Q9lpHV).

After pruning, it's time for cleanup. I find the Fiskars Kangaroo Garden Bag to be incredibly useful for collecting the pruned branches, leaves, and other debris. This garden bag is collapsible, making it easy to store when not in use. You can get it on Amazon through this link: [Fiskars Kangaroo Garden Bag](https://amzn.to/2wXS0KE).

By following these pruning and cleanup steps every Thursday, you'll keep your garden looking neat and healthy.

Friday Zone: Fertilizing and Watering

Moving on to Friday zone garden maintenance, we'll focus on fertilizing and watering. These are crucial tasks for providing nutrients and hydration to your plants.

Start by fertilizing your plants. I recommend using a high-quality organic fertilizer. Look for one that suits the specific needs of your plants. Organic fertilizers promote healthy growth and help you maintain an eco-friendly garden.

Next, make sure to water your plants deeply, especially during hot summer days. Adequate watering ensures the roots receive enough moisture. Consider using a drip irrigation system for efficient watering and water conservation.

Remember, different plants have different water requirements, so it's essential to research the watering needs of your specific plants.

By following a consistent fertilizing and watering routine every Friday, you'll create an optimal environment for your plants to flourish.
