As winter begins to fade, early spring preparation helps set the stage for a successful growing season. Taking care of soil, monitoring weather conditions, and starting seeds indoors are simple steps that can make a big difference once planting season arrives.

At Stockdale’s, our Spring Prep essentials for late February focus on practical tools and supplies that help you prepare with confidence before the busy spring months are in full swing.

Healthy soil is the foundation of any successful lawn or garden. Pelleted lime helps balance soil pH, improving nutrient availability and supporting stronger plant growth. Applying lime ahead of spring planting allows time for it to work into the soil, making it a smart early-season step for gardens, lawns, and pasture areas.

Starting seeds indoors allows plants to establish strong roots before being transplanted outdoors. Peat pots and seed starting kits provide an easy, organized way to begin the process. Designed to support proper drainage and root development, these kits help simplify early planting while keeping seedlings protected until outdoor conditions are right.

As temperatures fluctuate in late winter and early spring, keeping an eye on weather conditions becomes increasingly important. Dial thermometers offer an easy way to track outdoor temperatures, helping guide planting decisions and daily planning.

Rain gauges are another helpful tool during the spring season, allowing you to monitor rainfall amounts and better understand watering needs. Decorative and standard rain gauges provide accurate measurement while adding a functional touch to outdoor spaces.

A little preparation now can make spring tasks easier and more efficient later. From soil care and seed starting to monitoring temperature and rainfall, these spring prep essentials help support healthy growth and better results throughout the season.
