🌼 Dahlia Growers! A Few Tips From Hippie Chicken Farm 🌼
Whether you’re just getting your hands in the soil or you’re a seasoned dahlia lover, here are a few quick reminders as we inch closer to planting season:
✨ Check Your Tubers:
Now’s the perfect time to peek at your stored tubers. A little shriveling is normal—soft and mushy is not. If they need a drink, a light misting or a day in slightly damp peat can perk them up.
🌱 Plan Your Layout:
Give those beauties room to thrive! Dahlias love airflow, sunshine, and space to stretch. Your future bouquets will thank you.
💧 Think Drainage:
As the ground thaws, make sure your planting area doesn’t stay soggy. Dahlias hate wet feet—raised beds or amended soil can make all the difference.

We’re cheering you on as you dream up your 2026 garden. Growing dahlias is equal parts patience, magic, and a little community support—and we’re grateful to be part of your journey.
