Crowded radishes don’t grow bigger…they grow stressed.

Planting 2-3 seeds in one spot gives you a better chance that at least one will germinate…and often, all of them will.

When this happens, you will want to thin them out by removing the seedlings that don’t appear to be as strong.

This gives each radish enough space to grow properly, without having to compete with one another for water or nutrients.

It also prevents small, misshapen radishes and reduces risk of disease caused by poor airflow.

So give your radishes some space…and benefit from bigger harvests 🫜🫜🫜

🌱 What's happening in your garden this June?

No matter where you grow, June is a month of big changes. Seedlings are taking off, flowers are attracting pollinators, and many gardeners are seeing their first harvests of the season.

In this month's garden update, we've broken down what to expect in different growing zones—from cool northern gardens just getting started to warm southern gardens already producing baskets of fresh vegetables.

Remember: every garden is different. Weather, sunlight, and planting dates can all affect what you're seeing right now. Use these tips as a guide, then let your plants tell you what they need.

👇 We'd love to hear from you:
What growing zone are you in, and what's happening in your garden this month?

Whether it’s for mojitos, salads or herbal tea…mint is a lovely garden herb to have on hand. 🌿

But be warned! It can be extremely difficult to tame and can take over a whole garden in just a few years if not properly contained.

GardenSoxx is a great solution for growing mint because it keeps it from spreading and provides just the right conditions for it to thrive.

So grab a mint seedling on your next garden center run - there are a ton of varieties to choose from.

Spearmint, peppermint, ginger mint, Moroccan mint and more….

What type of mint is your favourite?

Happy Companions for Life 🌼🍅🌿

Companion planting is one of the easiest ways to create a healthier, more productive garden naturally.

By pairing the right plants together, they can support each other as they grow, improving flavour, attracting pollinators and deterring pests.

A winning combination is:
🌼 Marigold to repel root-damaging nematodes in the soil
🍅 Tomatoes that thrive with companions who support their growth
🌿Basil to improve the taste of Tomatoes and discourage pests
🌱Parsley to attract pollinators and beneficial bugs

GardenSoxx makes it easy to neatly contain each plant while still allowing them to work together naturally.

Healthier plants, easy maintenance, and a thriving garden.

What are your favourite companion planting combos?
