4. Break up big projects into little projects
As Flannery notes, many gardeners would be wise to take a long
view of their gardening projects, planning over a number of
years instead of aiming to complete a one-year transformation.
Chris Ray, who owns Humber Valley
Landscaping, suggests consumers should start by finding a
small area of their property that is neglected or
under-utilized.
"If you do a large project, you might find
you don't like the end result," he said. "Doing it over a
couple years, you can go back, see what you like, what you
don't like, and we can tailor the plan over a period of
years."
"There are new products every single year;
there are new technologies every single year," he cautioned.
"Don't go crazy with it. Start with your plan." |
