By Lee Dobbins There is probably nothing as beautiful in this world as fall gardens. While spring and summer are characterized by healthy greens and wintry gardens are known for having pristine white beauty, gardens in the autumn season are showered with various colors ranging from bronze to red to fiery oranges, not to mention other colors of the rainbow which you can see on flowers and fruits. Still, making those colors appear at the right place and concealing the moribund effects of fall on gardens at the same time will take patience, effort, and extreme care. Here are some tips to make your backyard one of the most perfect fall gardens in town: Using Fall to Prepare for Other Seasons Fall is the best time to start growing plants that you intend to bloom in the spring. Do not forget to prepare your soil accordingly so that your spring plants will grow beautiful and healthy. Roses in Fall Fall gardens will certainly benefit from the loveliness of roses. These flowers, however, must be given extra attention during autumn because neglected roses face the strong possibility of dying once winter sets in. Flower and Plant Suggestions for Fall Gardens There are certain flowers and plants that are lovelier to look at when they bloom in autumn. Examples of plants and flowers commonly blooming in the fall are the following: chrysanthemums, pansies, turnips, and even decorative varieties of cabbage. For a more unusual variety of flowers and plants in your fall garden, consider the following suggestions: Aster - Fall gardeners can choose from pink, white, and blue when adding asters to their plant collection. Mums - This type of plant is best grown in masses so make sure that you provide sufficient space for them. Plumbago - This plant will give your garden a colorful carpet; for maximum results, plant plumbago when it can benefit from great exposure to sunlight while making sure that the soil is dry but fertile. Russian Sage - This type of plant possess gray leaves and flowers in different shades of blue. Tickseed - With a great likeness to daisies, this type of plant can be used as a border or ground cover. Plant this when it can benefit from great exposure to sunlight as well. Remember, however, that certain plants, like the magnolia, are better to plant in spring rather than fall. From Summer to Fall The transition between the two seasons can be quite damaging to most plants, especially those that live in flower pots or containers. To minimize the damage to your plants, make sure that you water them diligently and stay alert for any signs of dryness. Letting Plants Flowers R.I.P. It’s inevitable for some plants and flowers to wilt and die during fall. In the case of flowers, make sure that you cut them off immediately and let them dry. Take away the seeds, place them inside an envelope, then set them aside until it’s springtime and you’re allowed to plant them again. Of course, you also have the option of letting nature take its course by planting the seeds on the ground. For trees and plants, on the other hand, it’s best to cut or prune any dead part of the plant immediately. Make sure that you also give them one good shower before winter sets in and forces your flowers and plants to hibernate. Consider hiring a professional as well to subject plans to professional thinning. Taking Care of Lawns in the Fall If your fall garden is made up of a lawn and flower beds, there is nothing really to beautify when it comes to your lawn, and all you can do is just make sure that it will grow back to its original loveliness come spring. For the meantime, you can aerate your lawn to increase its healthiness. Since there’s little to harvest in fall, the most efficient way to spend your time during fall is just to mow your lawn or sing your flowers and plants to sleep. While gardens can certainly remain beautiful in any season, Mother Nature certainly lightens the load on our shoulders during fall. With the naturally changing colors of leaves in autumn, all we need to focus on is creating a perfect autumn setting for our garden, and our back or front yards will immediately look like a doorway to paradise. Just sweat a little, and Mother Nature will do the rest! Lee Dobbins writes for http://gardening.subjectmonster.com where you can get more gardening tips.

By Julie Williams Many vegetable gardeners are keen to get started for the season well before spring is here, but tend to wait until the last frost has passed. But there are many ways to add weeks or more to both ends of the growing season, giving you earlier produce and higher yields. If finances permit you could go all out and purchase a poly tunnel, or a heated greenhouse (although the energy requirements for this adds to costs and is less environmentally friendly). However, most of us can afford the following suggestions. 1. Cold Frames are basically small structures that create the same kinds of conditions that a glasshouse does, but on a much smaller and more affordable scale. Many gardeners make their own from a metal or wooden frame that has a glass or plastic lid. Sunshine is then used to warm the enclosed area. It can be used to heat up the soil for a few weeks prior to seeding and be left in place for a few weeks after seedlings have come through protecting the tender seedlings from frost at night. Opening the lid of your cold frame on sunny days will prevent over-heating. You can also use cold frames to get trays of seedlings started early. 2. Floating Row Covers can be used for longer rows. They are made from fabric that is specifically designed for crop protection. They are porous and so allow sunlight, water, and some air through for ventilation. The fabric is light weight so can easily be supported with PVC or similar. Floating row covers offer 4-5 degrees of frost protection. An additional benefit is that they screen diseases and pest insects so your yields are not only earlier, but often of better quality. Some crops require pollination or may be sensitive to heat, so care must be taken to remove covers at the right time to allow for the special needs of particular plants. A cloche is a similar concept to floating row covers, but is generally made from plastic. It can be used to cover rows or just an individual plant. A 2litre soft-drink bottle could be used as a very basic cloche for a single plant. 3. A very simple and sometimes overlooked way to prolong your harvest is to Keep Picking. Many plants will start to slow down if the fruit is left on the plant. Once a plant has set seed its primary purpose is complete. So if you leave your capsicum (peppers), beans, zucchini, eggplant etc. to ripen, you will limit your yields. Keep picking fresh young vegetables and they will be replaced with more fresh young vegetables. Give them a light feed mid-summer not too much nitrogen to keep them producing as long as possible. Keeping your vegetable plants healthy is one of the best ways make sure you will have a long producing vegetable garden. Succession planting means planting the same type of vegetable every two to three weeks to bring you a longer and continual supply of your favourite vegetables. This also extends your harvesting time. Succession plant well into autumn (fall), looking for late varieties and implement these three techniques so that you have a bountiful harvest.

By Shannon Bradford If you still picture a steady progression up the ladder when you think of your career goals, it is time to shift your thinking. For most people, climbing the career ladder is no longer an option. The working world has changed so dramatically that linear career paths rarely exist, except as historical symbols. But, without those trusty rungs to show the way, how do you figure out the next step in your career? How do you determine if you need to go to business school or graduate school? How do you identify your next job? You could employ the dartboard method, or a Magic 8 Ball. Or, instead of struggling to find the next rung on that mythical ladder, you could identify your long-term career goals, and then focus on closing the gap between today and your future goals. By focusing on the long-term, and the skills and experiences you need to gain, you will increase your options and give yourself flexibility to operate in today’s chaotic working world. To determine your career plan, first write down your long-term goal. Then, do a Career Gap Analysis, by following these four steps: Step One Divide a blank sheet of paper into three columns. At the top of the left column, write: “Current Skills and Experiences.” At the top of the middle column, write: “The Gap.” Finally, at the top of the column on the right, write “Future Needs.” Step Two In the right column, Future Needs, list the skills, education, abilities, and experiences you will need to be successful in the future you envisioned when determining your long-term goals. For example, if your future goal is to start your own business, you will need the following: knowledge of how to write a business plan, basic accounting or financial analysis skills, the ability to manage a group of people, experience in writing new business proposals, and marketing skills. Step Three In the first column, Current Skills and Experiences,list all of the skills, education, abilities, and experiences you currently have to offer. When making your list, be comprehensive. Include what you have learned through volunteer experiences, hobbies,and seminars. Step Four In the middle column, The Gap, list the education, skills, or experiences you need to close the gap between where you are now and where you plan to be in the future. Now that you have identified your long-term goals and the elements in the gap, instead of focusing on the title or hierarchy of your next job, focus on the skills and experiences you will gain to close the gap. For example, if you want to be a successful entrepreneur, you may look for a job that will strengthen your planning skills. You may consider an opportunity to work more closely with the marketing or sales department. Or, you may look for a specific type of leadership experience in your next job. Don’t overlook opportunities within your current organization. If your goal is to strengthen your skills — instead of to climb that mythical ladder — you may find a lot more options internally than in an outside organization. As a known quantity, your current organization is more likely to risk letting you experiment with a new field of expertise. So, a lateral move within your organization could give you the opportunity to gain new skills and experiences. To close the gap, you can also look for experiences outside of your job. Build your entrepreneurial skills by take a workshop on business plans at your local Small Business Development Center. Volunteer to manage the financials for a small non-profit organization. Or, take some business classes at your local college or university. By using a Career Gap Analysis, you can create your own unique, flexible career plan and banish the career ladder to the pages of history, where it belongs.
