How soon can we start planting annuals in zone 4b

April 13, 2017A.You will need to wait until the danger of frost has passed.
As a zone 4b garden myself, I know that this is a date that changes and you need to monitor the weather, sometimes even into mid May we can see a frost.May 15 is the safe date. If you are potting up annuals you can often do so earlier but may need to cover or move indoors if our weather takes a dip.

Only directions show it plopped into a container still rolled up. I want to unroll. One side has white mat, other has green shreds.

AtlantaQ.Dead Annuals: Pull Out Or Turn Under?
Sunbathers, etc killed by hard freeze. Do I remove or mulch?

Certified ExpertA.It's generally better to pull out dead annual plants rather than tilling them in. Pulling them out helps remove the plant material from the soil surface, preventing potential diseases and pests associated with decaying plant matter. After removing the plants, you can add a layer of mulch to help suppress weeds, retain moisture, and improve soil health. Tilling can disrupt the soil structure and may bring weed seeds to the surface, leading to more weed growth. Mulching over pulled plants provides a cleaner and more effective way to nurture your garden soil.
