Math made easy: How much soil, mulch or grass seed do you need?

Before your head out to your local garden center to buy soil or soil amendments, type in your garden measurements and find out how much you'll need to buy.  


The lawn seed wizard will help you determine how much lawn seed to buy and which type of grasses to use. 


Another good website will help you determine the amount of mulch to buy . Perhaps it may be best to a quarter of a cubic yard rather than multiple bags.  Remember the money you save you can use to buy more plants!  


How many plants to buy?  Depends on the area, size of the plant, etc.  Try the plant calculator or landscape calculator. Math isn't so bad after all.


Happy gardening!
Donna
