UMaine Extension cited in Seacoast Online article on spring planting season
Seacoast Online cited University of Maine Cooperative Extension in an article about the beginning of spring planting season. While it’s still too early to plant outdoors, some tasks can be done ahead of time, like soil testing. UMaine Extension recommends testing soil at least once every three years. The UMaine Analytical Lab offers kits to test soil for pH and nutrients that will help guide people to optimize the fertility of their gardens. UMaine Extension also offers the kits, which can be requested online, or by calling or emailing your local Extension office, according to the article.
