[Note: Sorry for the dearth of posts lately, afraid I've been MIA the last few days.]
Here's a quick list of some things that need to be done this week:
If there are dead patches in your lawn, chances are it's
the work of lawn moth larvae. Bring a sample of any dead lawn areas
into the nursery for a positive identification, and recommended
control. You want to bring a small 1' by 1' patch that goes from
healthy grass to dead grass. It's usually in the transition zone where
we can see the systems that allow an ID.
Make sure your tomatoes are well staked and kept off
the ground. Tomato Cages are an easy way to keep the fruit up, prevent
rot, improve fruit set, and make harvesting a snap. Cages are also
great for controlling unruly cucumbers and squash plants!
Buy Dad a living remembrance from your favorite nursery. Give a gift that says "thanks" all year-round.
