Tips for Success: Remember that the rain brings a plethora of good things, but it also brings pests who can do damage to your garden. Consider ways of securing your garden whether that is planting in raised beds or using mesh to keep out critters.
The rain can also be great for weeds. Consider a mulching or using chemical weed control depending on the type of weed you encounter in your garden. The best way to deal with them once they get into your garden is to get your gloves and start pulling them.
Mulch is a great way to keep all this moisture in the soil and also keeps the soil cool which is great for young plants. In the same vain, provide adequate sun and shade for your particular plants. Make sure you read the packet or the label to know how much sun/shade your plant needs.
