How frequently you water your garden is down to a couple of factors. The weather and the type of plants you have in your garden play the biggest role. Generally, we would recommend watering in the morning to prevent evaporation throughout the day. Watering in the evening does also prevent such evaporation, however can leave you susceptible to fungal diseases which thrive in damp conditions. We would recommend against watering at midday in hot conditions.
We sell a wide range of gardening tools suitable for all outside jobs, but for most first-time gardeners, you will need a trowel, fork, rake and pruner.
The best time to reseed your lawn is in spring or early autumn, before the first frost. These are the ideal times. Winter is not ideal, due to the cold temperatures leading to the seed being unable to germinate. The high temperatures during summer require huge quantities of water, therefore reseeding during high temperatures is not environmentally, nor economically viable.
