You had to prime the microphone. 6 00:00:30.960 --> 00:00:35.600 There you go, wake up now, it's okay. You're tired. I'm 7 00:00:35.679 --> 00:00:38.840 tard. You know something. You're in the right place in America where you 8 00:00:38.880 --> 00:00:44.759 can rhyme tired and hard hard. I'm tired a lot of a lot of 9 00:00:44.759 --> 00:00:47.840 it. Miles on this week. I bet you wouldn't. Your predometer said 10 00:00:47.880 --> 00:00:51.520 something like twenty two twenty three miles three miles this week. That's just walking 11 00:00:51.560 --> 00:00:57.240 around in the sun heat anyway. They have new fall color trees have just 12 00:00:57.359 --> 00:01:00.840 arrived. Oh nice maples and needs pustache. We've got a few elm trees 13 00:01:00.920 --> 00:01:04.079 and some oaks and whatnot. They're coming in. You're looking pretty good. 14 00:01:04.400 --> 00:01:07.079 Some of the maples took a little tattered from the wind. I guess so 15 00:01:07.120 --> 00:01:11.359 we had a bit of a windstorm and Tulsa. These are from an outfit 16 00:01:11.400 --> 00:01:17.159 and Tulsa there by the river down south of town, and they had Yeah, 17 00:01:17.200 --> 00:01:22.040 they got a little breeze, a little breeze down and the southern leaves 18 00:01:22.079 --> 00:01:27.400 are a little tattered on the on the maple's nose, but finde. So 19 00:01:27.959 --> 00:01:32.239 anyways, we're kind of excited about that. Also, we're thinking about points 20 00:01:32.280 --> 00:01:34.920 that he is, I have to get your gibbs in on those. Yeah, 21 00:01:34.959 --> 00:01:38.280 you better get them. They're going and we're starting panzies right now in 22 00:01:38.359 --> 00:01:44.280 the greenhouse, just in time for the fan to break. Yes, your 23 00:01:44.359 --> 00:01:48.840 kid, Well, the bearings went out on these fans that they're they're like 24 00:01:48.920 --> 00:01:53.359 helicopter blade cross are huge and the weigh a lot of natural bal the bearings 25 00:01:53.400 --> 00:01:57.280 just kind of give out. It's not us. That was fun, but 26 00:01:59.159 --> 00:02:00.359 it was a little bit more it in plants, folks, and there's a 27 00:02:00.359 --> 00:02:07.000 lot about machinery electronics. We got hold tage and bearings. So we got 28 00:02:07.000 --> 00:02:10.280 that fixed. Greenhouse. Greenhouse six is working just fine right now. Good 29 00:02:14.120 --> 00:02:15.800 you hear the road, the things screaming from the street. It was it's 30 00:02:15.879 --> 00:02:23.120 all that louder pulling in mid four when you're going. Not that not that 31 00:02:23.159 --> 00:02:30.280 one again. So we got that fix. It's working just fine, so 32 00:02:30.560 --> 00:02:32.120 just in time for the heat to come on this week? When is this 33 00:02:32.199 --> 00:02:35.319 going to be over with? What's moth of you guys? Come on fix 34 00:02:35.360 --> 00:02:42.599 it's already ninety eight on Thursday. Shut up, Well when summer's last? 35 00:02:43.039 --> 00:02:46.479 Gasp? Well it might be in a couple of weeks. The week after 36 00:02:46.680 --> 00:02:51.800 my ten day things shows it's going to be a little cooler next week. 37 00:02:51.879 --> 00:02:59.240 So yeah, in the next week, maybe if I December list fish, 38 00:02:59.319 --> 00:03:02.120 everyone have to work about the snow building up on the roads, Oh you 39 00:03:02.199 --> 00:03:06.479 might. I just took a look at the old farmer's almanac. I didn't 40 00:03:06.520 --> 00:03:07.800 check the new one. You know, he's a new guy. He's kind 41 00:03:07.800 --> 00:03:09.680 of wrong. The old guy been around a little bit. So I took 42 00:03:09.680 --> 00:03:14.840 a look at the old Farmer's almanac, and it said that we're going to 43 00:03:14.919 --> 00:03:19.400 be a little wet, uh this winter, which you know, looking at 44 00:03:19.400 --> 00:03:22.599 the lake. Good, but I don't know much. It's gonna be snow. 45 00:03:23.000 --> 00:03:25.840 That's a good thing, plants good for the next spring. Snow in 46 00:03:25.919 --> 00:03:30.199 the winter is really good. It is stealthy when it melts, it melts 47 00:03:30.240 --> 00:03:35.199 slowly and it gets down into the soil rot real good. Yeah, so 48 00:03:34.960 --> 00:03:37.639 yeah, so you hold that thought if you will. All right, Okay, 49 00:03:37.639 --> 00:03:44.520 so anyway, we could do have some at the nurse races. Let's 50 00:03:44.520 --> 00:03:47.840 sail get this scene. There we go, There we go. Hostas are 51 00:03:47.840 --> 00:03:52.080 twenty five percent off. It doesn't seem like quite the right time a year 52 00:03:52.120 --> 00:03:54.879 to buy hosts could say they look at worse right now. However, to 53 00:03:54.960 --> 00:03:59.159 get in the ground at this point, even though they're they're you know, 54 00:03:59.199 --> 00:04:03.360 a deal of bargain right now, you gotta consider what's happening underground. Yeah, 55 00:04:03.360 --> 00:04:08.800 it's not all about what they'll live in two different worlds. Get them 56 00:04:08.879 --> 00:04:11.759 right, then I'll have a more robust root system the next spring that will 57 00:04:11.960 --> 00:04:15.040 really come out nicely. So just because they're on sale doesn't mean they're they're 58 00:04:15.040 --> 00:04:18.319 bad stuff or whatever. Anyway, they're on sale too. We have we 59 00:04:18.399 --> 00:04:25.319 have some herbs. Don't say Mandeville's jasmine and Jessamin. It's the difference between 60 00:04:25.360 --> 00:04:29.920 Jessamin and jasmine. What's that? What's the difference? Well, Jessamin typically 61 00:04:29.959 --> 00:04:33.279 has a yellow flower. Yeah, and people call it Carolina jasmine. It's 62 00:04:33.319 --> 00:04:38.560 wrong. Actually, down south, it's a bit of a pest climbed up 63 00:04:38.560 --> 00:04:42.439 into the trees and when you're traveling down the road, you see these big 64 00:04:42.480 --> 00:04:46.759 bosss of of I lived in Florida. I think I've seen that yellow flowers 65 00:04:46.839 --> 00:04:51.720 up in the tree. That's just Samium simper viruns, which is called Carolina 66 00:04:53.160 --> 00:05:00.040 jessamine, and they colloquially, you'll whatever that word is word for that adjastment. 67 00:05:00.399 --> 00:05:03.240 It's easier to say jasmine and adjacment, I guess. Yeah. So 68 00:05:03.240 --> 00:05:05.959 anyway, we got some of that too. It does well pretty well here. 69 00:05:06.000 --> 00:05:10.360 It is hardy in the zone seven, so it can't get nipped a 70 00:05:10.360 --> 00:05:13.600 bit in the winter. But they seem to be if they have plenty of 71 00:05:13.680 --> 00:05:15.040 roots space on them, plenty of mults on the ground going into it, 72 00:05:15.160 --> 00:05:18.480 that they should survive, which is fine. So anyway, so we asked 73 00:05:18.480 --> 00:05:21.759 a little bit of that too. Canada's, of course fox farm stuffs on 74 00:05:21.839 --> 00:05:27.920 sale peonies or half price too. Great time to plant peony bushes. They're 75 00:05:28.079 --> 00:05:30.959 ugly, is all geared out, but now it's a good time to plant 76 00:05:31.000 --> 00:05:34.759 them because they'll have a good roots system if you're going into the spring, 77 00:05:35.000 --> 00:05:39.600 because they'll have all winter along for the roots to establish and they'll be much 78 00:05:39.680 --> 00:05:43.480 better. So if you have plants for planting some pony plants their own sale 79 00:05:43.519 --> 00:05:48.079 half price, okay, annuals, soperennials, plenty of bulbs or buy one, 80 00:05:48.120 --> 00:05:53.839 get one, and were hanging baskets for twelve ninety nine. So anyway, 81 00:05:53.920 --> 00:05:56.920 so there's a few things on sale, but the trees aren't. No, 82 00:05:56.920 --> 00:06:00.759 they're gonna be coming into vote real soon. So like in two weeks 83 00:06:00.759 --> 00:06:06.160 here, it's good be like everywhere a month ago so where anyway, Yeah, 84 00:06:06.319 --> 00:06:09.800 those are coming into so anyway, a lot of things going on at 85 00:06:09.800 --> 00:06:14.959 the nursery kind of a transitionary period too. Our greenhouse is going from growing 86 00:06:15.079 --> 00:06:19.040 annuals and summer annuals and things just fall things like a kale and and uh 87 00:06:19.279 --> 00:06:24.319 and the pansies right now. So it's a big, a big change of 88 00:06:24.399 --> 00:06:28.040 modus opera and modus operendi. And we're growing stuffs anyway. That's what's going 89 00:06:28.040 --> 00:06:31.199 on too in the vegtable garden this week. Time to plant those turnips and 90 00:06:31.480 --> 00:06:36.319 prepare the soil for coal crops, cold crops. There's a cabbage whatnot, 91 00:06:36.360 --> 00:06:42.720 like a kale and things like that. Let us good content the greens that 92 00:06:42.879 --> 00:06:46.759 keep you going. Yeah, and typically when let us it's ready to go, 93 00:06:46.839 --> 00:06:49.240 the bugs are gone. So if you plant it too early, it 94 00:06:49.240 --> 00:06:55.279 doesn't like the heat. Number one, number twos. Look at that young 95 00:06:55.560 --> 00:06:59.720 they pounce the next thing you know. It didn't look good. So you 96 00:06:59.720 --> 00:07:02.360 away a little bit of time on lettuce maybe, but to get some nice 97 00:07:02.399 --> 00:07:06.360 good turnips. Time to get those in. Actually, the greens of the 98 00:07:06.360 --> 00:07:11.360 turnips, the real healthy part is the root is just kind of starchy, 99 00:07:11.600 --> 00:07:15.480 which good was run dressing though, But nonetheless the greens, the turnip greens 100 00:07:15.560 --> 00:07:20.079 or what's that's the part you gotta have. Living in Georgia for so many 101 00:07:20.160 --> 00:07:24.560 years, Oh you've had that. I really enjoy turnip greens. I just 102 00:07:24.600 --> 00:07:30.839 love them. They got them in North Florida too. Boy, they with 103 00:07:30.000 --> 00:07:35.319 everything. I could eat my weight and turnip greens. That's good. That's 104 00:07:35.360 --> 00:07:39.319 really healthy for you too. They are in the lawns this week. The 105 00:07:39.399 --> 00:07:42.600 perimeter grass and zoya grass. Joys of grass are growing pretty good. Now. 106 00:07:43.199 --> 00:07:46.519 It's a little late to fertilize that permuter right now September, so don't 107 00:07:46.680 --> 00:07:51.279 use a high nitrogen fertilizer on your permiter grass. It needs to toughen up 108 00:07:51.319 --> 00:07:57.199 for the winter. If you have a situation where you've tested the spoil and 109 00:07:57.240 --> 00:08:01.360 it is deficient, it wouldn't hurt to put a scribed him not to fertilize 110 00:08:01.360 --> 00:08:05.040 one in the permuter grass just to keep the levels up. But otherwise, 111 00:08:05.399 --> 00:08:09.560 if you've got some twenty or thirty six zlo or something, well put it 112 00:08:09.560 --> 00:08:13.800 back in the shed for the winter and store it up off the ground so 113 00:08:13.800 --> 00:08:20.240 it'll be ready for next next May, next May. So yeah, the 114 00:08:20.319 --> 00:08:24.040 ten twenty ten right now we do. It's also getting a soon time to 115 00:08:24.040 --> 00:08:31.879 put down the prodiamine. Prodiamine is a pre emergent herbicite and it's very good 116 00:08:31.920 --> 00:08:35.159 at controlling henbit and chick weed and stuff like that. It gets in your 117 00:08:35.200 --> 00:08:39.240 yards and spring down the lion to helps control them too, So getting really 118 00:08:39.320 --> 00:08:43.240 really close for that too also, so think about that into your yard. 119 00:08:43.320 --> 00:08:46.639 Also what to do. Check out the irrigation system too. It is gonna 120 00:08:48.519 --> 00:08:52.080 get to where we can actually water our grass pretty soon, so you might 121 00:08:52.120 --> 00:08:54.399 want to turn it on and just let it run for a little bit. 122 00:08:54.480 --> 00:08:56.519 Just make sure everything's up up to snuff. So when you do put down 123 00:08:56.559 --> 00:09:00.279 your ten twenty ten or your per diamine or whatever, you have the method 124 00:09:00.279 --> 00:09:07.279 about which they can be watered in, so click that out diffuse and so 125 00:09:09.120 --> 00:09:13.120 Dave Hatch, I wouldn't do it. It's too hot and dry. I 126 00:09:13.240 --> 00:09:16.240 thought about it, but give it a couple of weeks and I've got more 127 00:09:16.240 --> 00:09:22.559 things to do than worry about my grass. You know, we mowed ours, 128 00:09:22.480 --> 00:09:26.320 did the little you know, got it kind of low. Yeah, 129 00:09:26.480 --> 00:09:28.799 I don't think we're gonna be mowing, but maybe one more time before wintertime. 130 00:09:28.919 --> 00:09:33.080 Oh no, No, when it starts raining again, you'll you'll get 131 00:09:33.120 --> 00:09:37.399 some get some quick growth. It always happens in the fall, and that's 132 00:09:37.399 --> 00:09:41.080 why we don't want to fertilize our permuto grass too much grow real quick and 133 00:09:41.120 --> 00:09:46.159 the stolens aren't hard enough for the winter. So yeah, so yeah, 134 00:09:46.399 --> 00:09:50.799 get ready, there's another wind maybe too, another growth spurt, and it 135 00:09:50.840 --> 00:09:52.799 looks really nice.

That's none one eight three 166 00:12:03.960 --> 00:12:16.159 three five seven zero zero zero nine one eight three feet five seven thousand and 167 00:12:16.320 --> 00:12:20.120 welcome back to the Green Country Gardener Programs eight twenty one in our phone line 168 00:12:20.200 --> 00:12:24.519 is open The one eight hundred seven fourt nine five nine three six Larry Glasses, 169 00:12:24.559 --> 00:12:26.840 our expert, and we've been talking about this, that and the other 170 00:12:26.919 --> 00:12:33.360 and all the weather and everything really what weather. Yeah, Welldle what to 171 00:12:33.399 --> 00:12:35.759 do with them right now? You can got back to spent blooms right now 172 00:12:35.799 --> 00:12:41.759 for appearance. As I was coming into the office a little bit before sunrise, 173 00:12:41.320 --> 00:12:46.399 as you always do, the sun that is coming up a little further 174 00:12:46.480 --> 00:12:50.519 to the closer to the equinox. So we're getting really too late for the 175 00:12:50.519 --> 00:12:54.919 Great Middles to generate new blooms. That's pruned at this point. So so 176 00:12:54.879 --> 00:12:58.000 cut off the dead blooms right now, just for appearance, and maybe shape 177 00:12:58.039 --> 00:13:01.240 it up a little bit too, Yeah, if you can tolerate the heat. 178 00:13:01.320 --> 00:13:05.480 But so anyway, just kind of leave them and you don't want them 179 00:13:05.519 --> 00:13:09.559 to grow too much going into the wintertime. They need, like I said, 180 00:13:09.559 --> 00:13:11.440 you need to be hard and off like the bermuda grass too, So 181 00:13:11.840 --> 00:13:16.039 you know, the crepe myrtles and multum in maybe for the winter coming on 182 00:13:16.120 --> 00:13:20.879 too, Let's get some rain on them and let them get good and silk 183 00:13:20.000 --> 00:13:24.480 in. They don't do very well if we have a dry period going into 184 00:13:24.519 --> 00:13:30.519 the winter, so you might consider getting some mulch and after we do have 185 00:13:30.559 --> 00:13:33.039 some good rain and before we have our arch and blast, you might want 186 00:13:33.039 --> 00:13:37.360 to go ahead and mulch them in just so it keeps that area the soil 187 00:13:37.480 --> 00:13:39.960 just a little bit on the warmer site and they should be able to tolerate 188 00:13:41.000 --> 00:13:45.399 the cold little bit of that way. So crepe myrtles pretty cool plants. 189 00:13:45.759 --> 00:13:48.759 Look on them. Also, look for a scale. I haven't seen such 190 00:13:48.759 --> 00:13:50.559 an outbreak of the scale this year as I have in a bath in the 191 00:13:50.600 --> 00:13:54.799 past. Might be something to do with the dryness perhaps, but they seem 192 00:13:54.879 --> 00:13:58.799 to be doing pretty good with it right now. So some of them though 193 00:13:58.840 --> 00:14:01.879 I've seen some of them just literal real attack, but for the most part, 194 00:14:01.919 --> 00:14:03.399 they're not that bad this year, it seems, with the scale. 195 00:14:05.000 --> 00:14:07.600 So anyway, look at them real closely, look at the stems and look 196 00:14:07.679 --> 00:14:13.120 for rather odd looking growths on the stem that pop off at leasily. But 197 00:14:13.240 --> 00:14:18.799 those are scaling, and don't confuse them with maybe the dead ones from last 198 00:14:18.879 --> 00:14:22.399 year too, because that can happen. Yeah, I've seen them where they're 199 00:14:22.399 --> 00:14:33.200 recovering and the bringing are gone, so just the residue. Yeah, right 200 00:14:33.240 --> 00:14:37.000 now on your hydrang just kind of leave them alone a little bit I wouldn't 201 00:14:37.039 --> 00:14:41.879 cut them back at this point. Uh, you're gonna have some blooms forming 202 00:14:41.879 --> 00:14:48.480 on them real soon, and you need a good mature aprical mere stem. 203 00:14:48.639 --> 00:14:52.480 We're using the big words here at the twenty dollars crossword puzzle word. Well, 204 00:14:52.480 --> 00:14:56.240 I think that will go all the way across anyway, if you if 205 00:14:56.279 --> 00:14:58.879 you cut them back too far, chances are they won't be able to reach 206 00:15:00.000 --> 00:15:05.759 generate the tissues necessary to produce blooms. So if you just don't cut the 207 00:15:05.799 --> 00:15:11.759 back at this point and then just keep them watered, not not too much 208 00:15:11.879 --> 00:15:15.639 nitrogen, maybe some phosphorus if you have some around and stuff like that, 209 00:15:15.720 --> 00:15:20.399 it's a good blooming type fertilizer and they'll do okay. So so hydrange is 210 00:15:20.639 --> 00:15:24.320 they're difficult to grow here because of our soil and our burying or climate or 211 00:15:26.159 --> 00:15:28.480 periods of extreme drought and all that. But they do better in the more 212 00:15:28.519 --> 00:15:33.159 northern climate. But actually people are having pretty good luck with them down in 213 00:15:33.240 --> 00:15:39.240 Dallas of all places too. What do you know who? Anyway, So 214 00:15:39.799 --> 00:15:46.919 that's odd. So so they'll do too much of the with your hydrone this 215 00:15:46.039 --> 00:15:54.039 week, okay. Also Mike's underbox swids look closely at them. We talked 216 00:15:54.080 --> 00:15:58.399 about this last week. They're pretty bad. Dormant oil or knee oil or 217 00:15:58.399 --> 00:16:03.879 triple action or with the hireson antemoil or lace bugs or on a sail is 218 00:16:03.919 --> 00:16:07.600 a little bit of a problem too. I haven't seen much of it this 219 00:16:07.679 --> 00:16:11.519 year though. Lace bugs, yeah, yeah, they're really They've been really 220 00:16:11.519 --> 00:16:12.759 bad at the past, but this year that I think they're taking a bit 221 00:16:12.759 --> 00:16:18.720 of a break, if you will, so too hot. I hadn't seen 222 00:16:18.759 --> 00:16:22.159 too much of them. Typically earlier in the spring, you rub your hand 223 00:16:22.200 --> 00:16:26.159 through yoursel and all these little honey flies come out. Those are lace wings, 224 00:16:26.759 --> 00:16:30.039 and they attached themselves or fly or land on the bottom of the leaf, 225 00:16:30.480 --> 00:16:34.919 and they have a proboscis that goes in between the layers of the leaf 226 00:16:34.960 --> 00:16:41.279 and they scoop out the chloroplasts in the palisade. Missiphil. Yeah, just 227 00:16:41.320 --> 00:16:45.399 like little vampires. That's right. So, but I haven't too much of 228 00:16:45.440 --> 00:16:49.360 a problem with here this year. The chapam Jack's dead bug will work, 229 00:16:49.600 --> 00:16:55.799 or a metaploper to work against those, but right now I wouldn't waste your 230 00:16:55.799 --> 00:16:59.480 money on it. I'd go ahead and apply that next spring help keep the 231 00:16:59.559 --> 00:17:03.640 lace bugs under control. When you're great, myrtles, Let's see what else? 232 00:17:03.920 --> 00:17:07.640 Uh? Kind of all the bugs right now? Tomatoes. I noticed 233 00:17:08.079 --> 00:17:12.920 the tomatoes have slowed down to the screeching halt. Mind having the backyard, 234 00:17:14.160 --> 00:17:18.279 and when it cools down just a little bit, we'll have all our false 235 00:17:18.359 --> 00:17:22.920 church and it'll be really nice tomatoes and little freeze. It's all about the 236 00:17:22.960 --> 00:17:29.039 timing, that's right. So they'll they'll keeping water. Don't don't water them 237 00:17:29.039 --> 00:17:30.640 too much. I think you can water. I haven't watered mine yet. 238 00:17:30.680 --> 00:17:37.079 There's well maybe twice I watered them. You got build nine inch layer mulchs 239 00:17:37.119 --> 00:17:42.200 on the top so they hold the moisture real well, so they'll be coming 240 00:17:42.240 --> 00:17:47.079 back to this. I got the little tomatoes, so wife flights, so 241 00:17:48.119 --> 00:17:52.359 just pop them in. They're really good. So not much to do with 242 00:17:52.400 --> 00:17:56.920 the tomatoes right now, except maybe keep an eye on the mic populations and 243 00:17:57.559 --> 00:18:02.720 the white flights too. They're kind of tough. The Captain Jack's dead, 244 00:18:02.759 --> 00:18:07.400 but taking care of the white flies. But the mics are unractied. So 245 00:18:07.519 --> 00:18:12.480 I controlled them with about a one or two percent solution of dawn soap on 246 00:18:12.880 --> 00:18:18.640 a holds in sprayer scare of him in the evening. In the evening, 247 00:18:21.400 --> 00:18:25.160 dormant oil works pretty well too, I mustified light oil will work pretty good 248 00:18:25.160 --> 00:18:32.559 too. But so you can't breathe of that your trees right now. Look 249 00:18:32.599 --> 00:18:36.720 at the board damage on your fruit trees and all that. You might do 250 00:18:36.759 --> 00:18:40.039 a little fall fertilization here pretty soon. I wouldn't do it quite yet. 251 00:18:40.079 --> 00:18:41.839 It really won't diffuse right now. It drives the ground is unless you have 252 00:18:41.839 --> 00:18:47.440 a sprinker system. So when you do fertilize the tree, put it out 253 00:18:47.440 --> 00:18:51.160 of the drip line. I see so many people with piles of fertilize right 254 00:18:51.160 --> 00:18:53.400 next to the trunk with us. No, what's not going out a way? 255 00:18:53.880 --> 00:18:57.720 And actually the drip line is where all these goofy looking people hang out 256 00:18:57.799 --> 00:19:03.960 under the tree. Drip got you, I'd sell you what you did. 257 00:19:03.440 --> 00:19:08.119 No, But it's the furthest point where the branches come out. That's typically 258 00:19:08.200 --> 00:19:14.240 the point where the absorption. Most of the absorption is happening of the other 259 00:19:14.319 --> 00:19:18.839 materials on that So concentrate on that area. It seems rather odd people have 260 00:19:18.880 --> 00:19:22.119 a tendency to want to here's a tree, put it right there there, 261 00:19:22.480 --> 00:19:26.119 No, no, no, that goes out there, And they don't see 262 00:19:26.160 --> 00:19:30.680 what's underground. They don't know. If you fertil of trees water at first, 263 00:19:30.920 --> 00:19:33.440 put a sprinker out there of water for if you haven't been water in 264 00:19:33.480 --> 00:19:37.440 your yard a couple of hours. Yeah, it was a little impact head 265 00:19:38.119 --> 00:19:44.079 and then fertilized in water again because it has to for it to get down 266 00:19:44.079 --> 00:19:48.680 into the soil. It needs moisture, lots of moisture diffusion into the soil. 267 00:19:48.480 --> 00:19:52.359 So that's kind of what it would trade. A tree fertilizer will work, 268 00:19:52.440 --> 00:19:55.240 or ten twenty ten or something like that. If you have an oak 269 00:19:55.279 --> 00:19:57.839 tree and leaves a little bit small one, it'll say, pino for instance, 270 00:19:59.000 --> 00:20:07.319 I want to get something with some iron in it. Iron. Yeah, 271 00:20:07.440 --> 00:20:11.240 you're a joying this that iron. It will help help it green up 272 00:20:11.240 --> 00:20:15.759 a little bit, orange up your sidewalk a little bit. That's okay. 273 00:20:15.839 --> 00:20:19.400 But the iron is an essential element, especially for pin oaks. They have 274 00:20:19.599 --> 00:20:26.599 a difficult time existing and soil that's iron deficient. They get what they're called 275 00:20:26.640 --> 00:20:32.599 clorosis, which is symptomatic of the leaves. They have this yellowish colored and 276 00:20:32.680 --> 00:20:34.160 the veins in the middle of kind of green in color, and the leaves 277 00:20:34.160 --> 00:20:38.319 you're smaller and smaller over time because of an iron deficiency. So if you 278 00:20:38.359 --> 00:20:42.359 do have a situation where there's a pin olk, you might consider either fertilizing 279 00:20:42.440 --> 00:20:48.119 your lawn with a fertilizer that has iron in it or a specific application at 280 00:20:48.160 --> 00:20:51.960 the jopline of the pine. Got a call, I think so, good 281 00:20:51.960 --> 00:20:55.759 morning.

There's an underlying criteria to make 324 00:24:22.839 --> 00:24:29.279 the grass seed healthy. One is the ability of the root system is probably 325 00:24:29.279 --> 00:24:32.799 the most important thing. The ability of the root system to go down into 326 00:24:32.839 --> 00:24:37.839 the soil and be able to reach that moisture higher level of moisture. So 327 00:24:38.000 --> 00:24:42.039 you should have anywhere from a minimum I would say, of six inches of 328 00:24:42.039 --> 00:24:47.799 soil maximum of who knows what, and it should be loose enough for the 329 00:24:47.839 --> 00:24:49.880 roots to go down and be able to exploit the resources down there. So 330 00:24:49.960 --> 00:24:55.160 the more vertical association of richie can have, the better the grass is going 331 00:24:55.200 --> 00:24:56.799 to be. If you live in an area where there's a whole lot of 332 00:24:56.880 --> 00:25:02.559 rock, well, there are areas that are a whole lot of rock around 333 00:25:02.640 --> 00:25:07.160 here, So I go purchase a bulldozer, I guess you got your work 334 00:25:07.200 --> 00:25:14.359 got out right. So it's difficult to say, because anyway, they do 335 00:25:14.519 --> 00:25:18.400 need a fairly deep soil for it to work well. Because our weather here 336 00:25:18.519 --> 00:25:25.079 is is it's an extreme We we don't have maybe three days a normal weather 337 00:25:25.160 --> 00:25:30.359 during the year. Yeah, I've lived here for going on five years now, 338 00:25:30.559 --> 00:25:34.359 yet to see north forty years. It's one or the other, yea 339 00:25:36.440 --> 00:25:40.119 anyway, So the deeper the soil the better, The loozardlest soil the better. 340 00:25:40.119 --> 00:25:41.559 So if you're soil, you type of shovel and jump on it. 341 00:25:41.839 --> 00:25:45.440 And if it doesn't go anywhere, then then you got some problems. Yeah, 342 00:25:45.440 --> 00:25:48.640 now right now, as as dry as soil as a soil list. 343 00:25:48.640 --> 00:25:52.920 Before you do your chilling, you might want to put the sprinkler system on 344 00:25:52.960 --> 00:26:00.680 it, let it run, or use a hose and uh water thing sprinkler 345 00:26:00.160 --> 00:26:04.839 szz yeah and water it in't real good. And then I dig another hole 346 00:26:04.839 --> 00:26:08.200 and see how deep it can go, just to make sure the soil number 347 00:26:08.200 --> 00:26:11.200 one is loose enough and make sure the number one it'll it'll percolate down. 348 00:26:11.279 --> 00:26:15.480 If the soiled water does not percolated into the soil, you probably have a 349 00:26:15.519 --> 00:26:19.559 little too much clay and a lot of things associated with play and a lot 350 00:26:19.559 --> 00:26:25.640 of moisture. Is anaerobic conditions, and fescue does not grow in a In 351 00:26:25.720 --> 00:26:32.079 an anaerobic it rots, it gets uh symptomatic of five top four you what 352 00:26:32.160 --> 00:26:37.039 happens to it gets collapse of the bascular tissue. If it stays too wet 353 00:26:37.079 --> 00:26:45.240 and whatever. So all these things and another thing is your pH. Check 354 00:26:45.279 --> 00:26:48.960 your soil pH. Typically here in Bartlesville's pretty close to where we need to 355 00:26:48.960 --> 00:26:52.079 be. But I've recorded in some parts of the time in Woodland Park in 356 00:26:52.160 --> 00:26:56.880 the shade over there five point five pH. Yeah, and some parts of 357 00:26:56.960 --> 00:27:03.200 Sooner Park you know a little different. It's seven or you know even more 358 00:27:03.240 --> 00:27:06.079 than that, seven and a half eight eight, And it's a little extreme 359 00:27:06.920 --> 00:27:08.519 in the same place like this, from one one to another. It's difficult 360 00:27:08.519 --> 00:27:12.440 to gauge how to do that. So a soil test would be the best 361 00:27:12.480 --> 00:27:17.279 thing to do. Grass seats expensive this year, so that makes a soil 362 00:27:17.640 --> 00:27:22.039 soil tastes a whole lot cheaper. So get your soil chemistry right and get 363 00:27:22.079 --> 00:27:26.680 your soil structure right now. Adding compost is good for the for the sand, 364 00:27:26.720 --> 00:27:29.759 but you want to I meaning for the soil, but you might want 365 00:27:29.759 --> 00:27:32.799 to get some course sand as well. Let's say, course, not not 366 00:27:32.880 --> 00:27:37.000 to find mason sand, but course sand. That's an essential part of the 367 00:27:37.039 --> 00:27:42.240 soil is a clay loam, sand and silt. And what you can do 368 00:27:42.359 --> 00:27:47.559 if you're not not too sure of the composition of your of your soil it's 369 00:27:47.599 --> 00:27:51.599 a good science fair project, two of the kids. It doubles since I 370 00:27:51.680 --> 00:27:56.960 do for a full take like a court jar, and fill it up oh 371 00:27:56.000 --> 00:28:00.039 halfway with soil and rest way. Leave a little bit in the top for 372 00:28:00.079 --> 00:28:06.519 shaking room with water. Shake it up real good until it's a homogeneous set 373 00:28:06.559 --> 00:28:11.160 it on the countertop, and then uh, look at it the next day, 374 00:28:11.279 --> 00:28:15.519 and you'll have this stratification of different materials in the soil, and it'll 375 00:28:15.559 --> 00:28:18.759 give you a good feeling for what you have in your soil. The bottom 376 00:28:18.799 --> 00:28:21.680 room will be the sand, and then the silk, the neck clay, 377 00:28:21.720 --> 00:28:23.559 and the mid loam usually a little whatever, a little bit would get it's 378 00:28:23.599 --> 00:28:29.559 floating on the top of the water, and that'll kind of tell you your 379 00:28:29.599 --> 00:28:33.480 content of the soil. So if you have a very very thin layer of 380 00:28:33.559 --> 00:28:37.039 sand, you might add a bit more sand. If you've got a thick 381 00:28:37.119 --> 00:28:41.160 layer of loam, that's pretty good. You know, organic stuff, you're 382 00:28:41.559 --> 00:28:42.960 you're you're right now, you have to come across that here in town. 383 00:28:44.759 --> 00:28:49.000 But a clay, you're gonna have a whole lot of clay had some silt. 384 00:28:49.480 --> 00:28:56.559 So do a a storiation analysis and see what your soil is made of 385 00:28:56.519 --> 00:29:00.480 and also get your shovel and you might want to stead of shoppering it so 386 00:29:00.519 --> 00:29:04.519 it doesn't bounce off the ground, and just dig a hole there and see 387 00:29:04.559 --> 00:29:08.359 what you got underneath there. Yet, the more difficult it is, the 388 00:29:08.440 --> 00:29:12.039 more stuff you have to add to your soil. Good rule of thumb. 389 00:29:12.640 --> 00:29:17.400 So once that's under control, and then when the nighttime temperatures get the in 390 00:29:17.440 --> 00:29:21.839 the mid sixties or so would be good time to start planting fiescu seed at 391 00:29:21.920 --> 00:29:23.920 lower sixties fifties around there. You know, when it feels really nice in 392 00:29:23.920 --> 00:29:30.480 the morning, when actually when when it's really feels cold, that's a good 393 00:29:30.519 --> 00:29:33.160 feeling, then it's time to go ahead and do that. It wouldn't hurt 394 00:29:33.200 --> 00:29:37.680 the fescu seed to have a little bit of a warm spell, but we 395 00:29:37.799 --> 00:29:42.079 need a more consistent lower temperature for it to do well. Okay, fertilizer 396 00:29:42.200 --> 00:29:47.279 also, just to use something like a ten twenty ten to begin with, 397 00:29:48.119 --> 00:29:51.200 and then as it grows, hope you can ramp up the nitrogen a little 398 00:29:51.240 --> 00:29:55.200 bit. You don't want too much nitrogen it'll have too rapid week of a 399 00:29:55.279 --> 00:29:57.799 growth. Want a good strong growth on it. So when it hits wide 400 00:29:57.839 --> 00:30:00.839 blade it will really be nice, some green, healthy, but not a 401 00:30:00.880 --> 00:30:06.079 whole lot of nitrogen. And it's difficult to quantify that because there's so many 402 00:30:06.119 --> 00:30:11.440 variables in existing mineral content of the soil to be able to tell how much 403 00:30:11.480 --> 00:30:15.200 to put down. All right, Okay, what we're gonna take a quick 404 00:30:15.200 --> 00:30:18.559 break. We'll be right back after this two minute time out.

But this message furnished by the National Association of Broadcasters and welcome back 427 00:32:25.799 --> 00:32:30.599 to the Green Country Gardener program. It's eight forty one and we do have 428 00:32:30.640 --> 00:32:34.640 a line open for you if you have a question or comment for our expert 429 00:32:34.680 --> 00:32:37.440 Larry Glass on the Green Regardener program. Wady Dodrid's up in four nine, 430 00:32:37.480 --> 00:32:42.480 five nine three six. Larry, Okay, box words right now, don't 431 00:32:42.559 --> 00:32:45.160 treming back too much at this point. What's gonna happen is if you're really 432 00:32:45.200 --> 00:32:47.920 kind of back real far, the new growth is going to go into the 433 00:32:47.960 --> 00:32:54.160 winter and you have these little blonde leaves everywhere. Yeah, so it needs 434 00:32:54.160 --> 00:32:59.200 to be hard enough now after we've had a cold spell when it's not growing 435 00:32:59.240 --> 00:33:01.880 any and it could be in a little bit. But I think right now, 436 00:33:01.920 --> 00:33:06.839 if you were to trimmed them back somewhat sternly, we're going to ask 437 00:33:06.839 --> 00:33:10.160 some cooler and rainia weather coming on. It's inevitable they'll put on some fresh 438 00:33:10.160 --> 00:33:15.160 growth and then the farmer's all max that's going to be wet and cold and 439 00:33:15.160 --> 00:33:17.880 all that. So they'll probably die back anyway. So I wouldn't do too 440 00:33:17.920 --> 00:33:22.440 much with them right now. Typically I like to cut back. The box 441 00:33:22.599 --> 00:33:28.799 was a heavy cut back in February March around Okay, you've super fuscated on 442 00:33:28.880 --> 00:33:31.680 them, maybe, but no very little opinion nitrogen at all. And we 443 00:33:31.759 --> 00:33:37.599 talked about dormant oil or an em oil or triple action or soap Pyrenthans on 444 00:33:37.759 --> 00:33:42.440 the mics. So if you do have the mics, that's that smell they 445 00:33:42.480 --> 00:33:45.519 get. My box was don't smell. Well, you're lucky. No, 446 00:33:45.640 --> 00:33:53.240 they don't, think because I use this soap on occasionally. There you go. 447 00:33:53.400 --> 00:33:57.720 They're clean too, dawn fresh. Oh yeah, they're they're nice, 448 00:33:58.359 --> 00:34:04.839 nice and clean. We get to wash behind your leaves. So the roses 449 00:34:04.920 --> 00:34:08.039 right now, it's uh, they're going to be growing here in another whenever 450 00:34:08.079 --> 00:34:13.519 the weather turns around, so you can cut them back right now. We 451 00:34:13.920 --> 00:34:17.920 did get a couple of Julia Child roses in, but not very many of 452 00:34:17.920 --> 00:34:22.000 them are available out there, so we got just a couple of men so 453 00:34:22.119 --> 00:34:24.119 anyway, and and we do have some of my drift roses at this point 454 00:34:24.159 --> 00:34:28.480 too. What don't like about these is there they're not a miniature and they're 455 00:34:28.519 --> 00:34:30.679 not a standard. They're somewhere in between, and they had this kind of 456 00:34:30.679 --> 00:34:36.599 those low branching habit and they bloom the spite of it, you know everything 457 00:34:36.639 --> 00:34:39.920 too. So they're available in a red and yellow and an apricot. So 458 00:34:40.320 --> 00:34:44.760 the drift roses are good ones. I have very carefully roses too. And 459 00:34:45.159 --> 00:34:46.159 to get out of hand, just take your hedge flip or two of them 460 00:34:46.159 --> 00:34:54.039 and show them all what poor Kevin, you'll like these roses eighteen Chilinger. 461 00:34:54.719 --> 00:34:59.320 Yeah, I think it's up the thirty six. Now, Oh my gosh, 462 00:34:59.079 --> 00:35:01.519 yeah you said here that, then go anyway here it runs on coal 463 00:35:01.639 --> 00:35:10.760 and bibles. I don't even know what that means. Yeah, okay, 464 00:35:13.519 --> 00:35:15.159 anyway, on your trees right now, you can trim them back a little 465 00:35:15.159 --> 00:35:19.440 bit if you need to look for damage. I did find some board, 466 00:35:19.639 --> 00:35:22.840 mean board damage, find some board damage on my trees, so I had 467 00:35:22.880 --> 00:35:25.280 to do something about that. Use a little bit of a medical opord on 468 00:35:25.360 --> 00:35:30.880 them. And maple is doing just fine. So not much ado fertilizer on 469 00:35:30.880 --> 00:35:35.360 the trees. I wouldn't fertilize it at this point because it's going to get 470 00:35:35.400 --> 00:35:37.519 cold, and you don't want a lot of fresh tender kind of like a 471 00:35:37.559 --> 00:35:39.920 boxwoods, a lot of fresh tender growth growing into your trees into the fall. 472 00:35:40.559 --> 00:35:45.360 So I just kind of exercise a little discipline with them, and if 473 00:35:45.360 --> 00:35:47.320 you really want some fall color, don't don't fertilize them too much at all. 474 00:35:49.440 --> 00:35:52.000 So wait, wait a little bit later, give it a little time. 475 00:35:54.360 --> 00:35:58.199 Also, landscape plans, I've got two people towns I got to go 476 00:35:58.239 --> 00:36:00.679 to today. We can get a plan to you, and if you give 477 00:36:00.719 --> 00:36:02.920 me your email, like an email it to you, it's a lot quicker 478 00:36:02.960 --> 00:36:07.400 than then you can zoom in on it and all that. It's kind of 479 00:36:07.440 --> 00:36:12.199 fun anyway, it's not quicker than trying to meet again. So anyway we 480 00:36:12.280 --> 00:36:15.079 do those. I do a little example of one here, so it's one 481 00:36:15.119 --> 00:36:21.440 we're actually putting in. So oh there. Ye. So that's kind of 482 00:36:21.480 --> 00:36:23.480 important to being able to look at it and reach plans and see what's going 483 00:36:23.519 --> 00:36:27.440 on. And we offer you know, perspective views also of it too, 484 00:36:27.960 --> 00:36:30.920 and cost estimates and everything else. So I'll let you know what's coming up. 485 00:36:34.920 --> 00:36:37.360 Also, people are kind of getting into planting trees right now, and 486 00:36:37.920 --> 00:36:42.239 we can advise you up the nursery on how to prepare the soil plant those 487 00:36:42.320 --> 00:36:45.880 trees, How big a hole to dig and all that. Yeah, yeah, 488 00:36:45.880 --> 00:36:46.920 you don't. You're not putting your cork in the ground, you don't. 489 00:36:47.000 --> 00:36:52.000 You want to try to get some of the rock out of the way 490 00:36:52.039 --> 00:36:54.800 too, and we run into a lot of rock and roots and things. 491 00:36:54.960 --> 00:36:59.320 Golie sometimes will be there all afternoon, plan to a little five gallon tree 492 00:37:00.599 --> 00:37:04.360 and sometimes where there for ten minutes to plan a thirty gallons tree, so 493 00:37:04.400 --> 00:37:08.000 it all sort of comes out and wash, I guess. So anyway to 494 00:37:08.079 --> 00:37:12.480 properly prepare them, make sure the soil drains a real well away from the 495 00:37:12.519 --> 00:37:16.679 house, make sure your your chilities are marked flagged on all that. And 496 00:37:17.000 --> 00:37:21.199 the sewer line coming into the house. If it's a PBC line, it's 497 00:37:21.239 --> 00:37:23.360 not as important to say if it worked clay tile or something. There's still 498 00:37:23.360 --> 00:37:28.440 some of those here in town, probably, and you don't want to create 499 00:37:28.480 --> 00:37:32.000 some problems, but you know, solve it probably at the same time you 500 00:37:32.159 --> 00:37:37.400 cause any problems on that, So go ahead and get those marked. If 501 00:37:37.400 --> 00:37:38.960 you don't know where your sewer line is marked, it might even be worth 502 00:37:39.039 --> 00:37:43.119 while to have a plumber come out and located for you. Might cost you 503 00:37:43.320 --> 00:37:45.440 one hundred dollars or so, but Galli, it should be a lot less 504 00:37:45.440 --> 00:37:52.599 than cutting a hole in a sewer pipe ruining it that way. So so 505 00:37:52.760 --> 00:37:55.960 you might have a survey done to that. Just not no one just see 506 00:37:55.960 --> 00:37:59.639 you no where it is. Yeah, so you know what to put in, 507 00:37:59.800 --> 00:38:02.639 what not to put until on in your yard. Keep in mind also 508 00:38:02.800 --> 00:38:06.599 that the right away is a right away, and if they have to do 509 00:38:06.639 --> 00:38:12.159 some mutility work, it's uh, they're bailey. Wait so you're could lose 510 00:38:12.199 --> 00:38:15.320 a few things that happened to me at my the house did when they're doing 511 00:38:15.360 --> 00:38:19.440 the sewer thing. The the sewer lines, I don't know what they're made 512 00:38:19.440 --> 00:38:21.960 of, paper or something, what they're made of under that, and the 513 00:38:22.119 --> 00:38:25.400 smoke came up all over the backyard. Oh they do smoke testing sometimes. 514 00:38:25.480 --> 00:38:28.920 Yeah, well they did it over there. That was a mess. Oh 515 00:38:28.960 --> 00:38:31.519 boy, so they had. Fortunately, when I built my fence, I 516 00:38:31.719 --> 00:38:39.519 bolted the food pieces whatever it's called, backing to a post and just unscrewed 517 00:38:39.559 --> 00:38:44.719 it and took a whole fence fiction out. They really like that we might 518 00:38:44.800 --> 00:38:47.119 lest we might mess up some real landscaping. I said, hey, this 519 00:38:47.199 --> 00:38:51.320 is a right away. Do what you gotta do. Yeah, just bring 520 00:38:51.360 --> 00:38:54.000 me some good dirt. That's all I ask. That's all I ask. 521 00:38:55.119 --> 00:39:02.400 They did. They did, and they did. So it works well when 522 00:39:02.400 --> 00:39:06.679 you talk. Yeah, why don't even climbed up in a tree to get 523 00:39:06.719 --> 00:39:08.480 some gords out of it? I had a well there you go, so 524 00:39:08.639 --> 00:39:13.119 there you go. So anyway, I keep that in mind also in planting 525 00:39:13.119 --> 00:39:16.360 a trade. They're right aways. And also if you have an elevated power 526 00:39:16.400 --> 00:39:21.480 lines in the backyard, you want to be the tree to plant about twenty 527 00:39:21.480 --> 00:39:24.320 feet away from those two. If you don't have twenty feet to plantum, 528 00:39:24.360 --> 00:39:30.719 you might consider a fistigiated tree. Got it. That's narrowing upright, something 529 00:39:30.760 --> 00:39:34.559 like an English show. Because there's some elms that drow narrow and upright, 530 00:39:34.719 --> 00:39:37.480 but they'll stay in bounds. You shouldn't bottle in the middle. They don't 531 00:39:37.519 --> 00:39:42.800 like that. So and smaller trees too. That the Oklahoma redbud is a 532 00:39:42.800 --> 00:39:49.239 small one, the Chinese crustache, the Chinese elm thinking pretty big. But 533 00:39:49.440 --> 00:39:53.559 nonetheless, pick up some smaller species of tree in an area where it might 534 00:39:53.599 --> 00:39:57.199 be a little bit tight. But you still want some trees, got it. 535 00:39:57.239 --> 00:40:00.320 Okay, So species selection is important. Drainage, it's important you chose 536 00:40:00.480 --> 00:40:05.480 the locations. It's very important. We had a customer come in one of 537 00:40:05.480 --> 00:40:09.079 this big old tree in the yard. Oh, they're about the driveway. 538 00:40:09.119 --> 00:40:15.800 I said, I'm just flying and it was like it looked like a quilt. 539 00:40:16.840 --> 00:40:22.239 Oh my, I'm lying joining there. I said, Well, we 540 00:40:22.280 --> 00:40:31.599 can't plan it here. There's there's a seed catching thirty years is how we 541 00:40:31.679 --> 00:40:35.920 decided on the location in the backyard block in the morning sun. So it 542 00:40:36.039 --> 00:40:38.440 turned out okay, there you go. It's always a remedy exactly. So 543 00:40:38.719 --> 00:40:42.880 kind of know what's going on the ground so you don't inconvenience your neighbors. 544 00:40:43.760 --> 00:40:45.559 Well you could be real popular, real past, but not in a good 545 00:40:45.599 --> 00:40:51.960 way for a little thirteen year old running out the door, got my one 546 00:40:52.000 --> 00:40:55.920 by I don't I can't look at look at TikTok now yeah TikTok. Yeah. 547 00:40:55.960 --> 00:41:00.239 Yeah. So anyway, you want to make sure they not to break 548 00:41:00.239 --> 00:41:05.519 the lines. That's happened on several occasions too. People bought it. Somebody 549 00:41:05.760 --> 00:41:10.599 bought just five different trees and I said, there's snitty way the lines are 550 00:41:10.599 --> 00:41:17.679 too close together, so we can get these in here. Yeah, well 551 00:41:22.800 --> 00:41:28.079 yeah, so you don't want to get caught. Also, irrigation systems good 552 00:41:28.079 --> 00:41:30.599 a little thing. They'll find the wire on the irrigation system and a lot 553 00:41:30.639 --> 00:41:36.159 of times people ask can you locate the line? You get the scene there, 554 00:41:36.159 --> 00:41:38.360 you go find it. Nope, you don't want to plant there. 555 00:41:39.360 --> 00:41:43.719 That's not gonna work it over here just a little bit too. So knowledge 556 00:41:43.719 --> 00:41:47.920 is very important on that too where it is and all that too. Okay. 557 00:41:49.199 --> 00:41:52.239 That also leads up to other things in the landscape and outdoor lighting is 558 00:41:52.280 --> 00:41:55.880 a popular thing too. I should have brought one of my lights up to 559 00:41:55.960 --> 00:42:00.000 let you feel the weight of this thing. We use only stainless steel or 560 00:42:00.039 --> 00:42:06.960 brass. Okay, I've gotten away from aluminum. It deteriorates that what he 561 00:42:07.320 --> 00:42:09.039 kind of it turns into powder. Yeah, it does. Actually, this 562 00:42:09.039 --> 00:42:15.239 this kind of gel stuff forms on the inside of the Sometimes then the lights 563 00:42:15.239 --> 00:42:19.400 aren't very bright and they burn up. We did some repairs for somebody. 564 00:42:19.599 --> 00:42:23.199 You're telling me that brass really works, well, yeah, but make sure 565 00:42:23.719 --> 00:42:30.960 on the brass everything is brass. Yeah yeah. Galvanic corrosion and really cause 566 00:42:31.039 --> 00:42:35.480 some problems. Stainless steel is a good one. Also, if you can 567 00:42:35.519 --> 00:42:39.599 get all stainless stamped. Maybe all stamped means screws and everything, right, 568 00:42:39.639 --> 00:42:44.079 I'll have to be stainless steel or glass and silicone. Ok they don't react 569 00:42:44.119 --> 00:42:49.360 with each other. And also the wire as it goes into it. We 570 00:42:49.599 --> 00:42:53.079 only use one that will have a silicone plug or something in it that keeps 571 00:42:53.119 --> 00:43:00.800 the ants from getting in there. Bugs they go everywhere though you are the 572 00:43:00.840 --> 00:43:02.159 standless steal once we've used in the past, so I don't I don't know 573 00:43:02.199 --> 00:43:07.440 if I can get them anymore. But they're they're rated for underwater. Oh 574 00:43:07.440 --> 00:43:10.239 and so the bugs don't get into them. It's interesting. It's a little 575 00:43:10.639 --> 00:43:15.320 little cup shaped like thing and it has a flats on the top. Well 576 00:43:15.320 --> 00:43:19.519 you put screws. Then on top of that goes rather interesting looking silicon seal 577 00:43:20.119 --> 00:43:24.199 that when you put pressure on it, these little ridges on it collapse and 578 00:43:24.280 --> 00:43:30.920 it makes it a perfect steal against against the glass lens. So stainless steel, 579 00:43:31.000 --> 00:43:37.599 glass and silicone. You know, they don't interact. They're all three 580 00:43:37.639 --> 00:43:42.079 of them are inert. Next thing, you know, you got a fully 581 00:43:42.119 --> 00:43:45.559 functioning USUL equipment. There even be any trouble. Even the screw on the 582 00:43:45.599 --> 00:43:52.280 back that that clamps the rubber around the cord going in there. Stainless steel 583 00:43:52.280 --> 00:43:55.320 too, so detail, baby, yeah, just make sure just that way. 584 00:43:55.559 --> 00:43:59.079 Now they've got cheaper ones. It's probably worth it, you know, 585 00:43:59.199 --> 00:44:01.320 to get one that called swelve dollars as opposed to one to get maybe forty 586 00:44:01.320 --> 00:44:07.000 dollars. But then you have to go back and rewire it get to forty, 587 00:44:07.039 --> 00:44:10.840 you and forget it. Set it and forget it. Okay, So 588 00:44:12.199 --> 00:44:15.119 anyway, so those are the two matrails I'd like to use in an outdoor 589 00:44:15.199 --> 00:44:19.239 lighting system, standless steel or brass. Very good. We're gonna take a 590 00:44:19.280 --> 00:44:21.679 break, folks. We're gonna be right back after this two minute, ten 591 00:44:21.760 --> 00:44:24.519 second time out. In the early nineteen hundreds, the world was changing and 592 00:44:24.559 --> 00:44:30.480 the United States was taking its place as the premier industrial and political power in 593 00:44:30.519 --> 00:44:35.119 the world. The newest frontier was not the Wild West as much as it 594 00:44:35.239 --> 00:44:39.000 was industry and technology. The world was changing around Bartlesville and in No Sage 595 00:44:39.039 --> 00:44:44.559 County as well. During this time, Frank Phillips and his brother Ellie were 596 00:44:44.599 --> 00:44:47.039 growing tired of the boom and bust of the oil business, and we're in 597 00:44:47.039 --> 00:44:52.239 the process of selling off their oil leases and making plans to expand their banking 598 00:44:52.280 --> 00:44:57.920 business and making Kansas City their headquarters. The Phillips brothers owned Lease one eighty 599 00:44:57.960 --> 00:45:00.920 five in No Sage County, and by the terms of the lease, if 600 00:45:00.920 --> 00:45:04.719 they didn't drill it, they lost it. Well, it wasn't Frank Phillips's 601 00:45:04.800 --> 00:45:07.679 nature to walk away from an investment with at least trying, so rather than 602 00:45:07.760 --> 00:45:12.280 lose it, they decided to drill for oil, and they drilled six dry 603 00:45:12.360 --> 00:45:15.000 holes on that lease, and then finally on their seventh try, they hit 604 00:45:15.079 --> 00:45:20.480 oil at around one hundred barrels a day in curries. They drilled one more 605 00:45:20.639 --> 00:45:24.599 just to the west, and on March twenty second, nineteen seventeen, Frank 606 00:45:24.639 --> 00:45:29.760 Phillips stood on the drilling platform when the earth and all around him began to 607 00:45:29.800 --> 00:45:35.199 tremble. The well exploded with a gusher of over one thousand barrels a day. 608 00:45:35.320 --> 00:45:38.079 It has been said that that well was the beginning of Phillip's Petroleum Company 609 00:45:38.119 --> 00:45:44.079 and therefore the history and legacy of Frank Phillips. Thanks to that well, 610 00:45:44.199 --> 00:45:47.239 we still have Woollerock to remember, the west, the oil, and the 611 00:45:47.320 --> 00:45:52.880 history of Frank and Jane Phillips. Come visit the past and capture the magic 612 00:45:52.920 --> 00:45:59.480 of Woollerock. Welcome home to Wallerock.

It'll Keepibota dot com 621 00:46:37.800 --> 00:46:40.880 eight fifty five more back with the Green Country Gardener program and of course your 622 00:46:42.119 --> 00:46:45.159 phone calls welcome at one eight hundred two four or rather than seven four nine 623 00:46:45.440 --> 00:46:47.960 five nine three six. Larry, what do we have here? Okay, 624 00:46:49.000 --> 00:46:52.199 we talked about lighting and everything else. And to help save water in your 625 00:46:52.239 --> 00:46:57.760 landscape, the soil actually is a battery for water storage. It's a good 626 00:46:57.880 --> 00:47:02.079 deep soil prip so the salt water will for the water will percolate down there. 627 00:47:02.320 --> 00:47:07.480 If any water that runs off of your of your irrigation is a waste. 628 00:47:07.239 --> 00:47:12.800 So if you want to try to make the soil absworb as much as 629 00:47:12.800 --> 00:47:14.960 possible. In our soil here it's kind of heavy and clay, so you 630 00:47:15.000 --> 00:47:17.960 might want to do amend to foil somewhat to either listen, composts and or 631 00:47:19.039 --> 00:47:22.480 some sand depending on the content of it. There's so many variables in that, 632 00:47:22.840 --> 00:47:25.559 but a good deep soil is is is the best thing you can do. 633 00:47:27.800 --> 00:47:30.800 Also, drought holler and plants, ice plants, lavender, rosemary, 634 00:47:30.840 --> 00:47:35.960 seatums and other cycul limps like that do very well, and limited water on 635 00:47:36.000 --> 00:47:43.360 these plants apply much to retain water so anyway, so don't try to plant 636 00:47:43.360 --> 00:47:45.480 ahead on that. And our resident soil here is fine for you know, 637 00:47:45.559 --> 00:47:51.360 johnson grass and hackberry trees, but a lot of these plants here are just 638 00:47:51.400 --> 00:47:55.559 simply not native to the area, so they're unprepared for the soiled Those hackberry 639 00:47:55.599 --> 00:48:01.400 trees grow up so uninvitedly and there's so hard to pull up to. Yeah, 640 00:48:01.440 --> 00:48:05.239 the riches. That's why they do very well here. Yeah, just 641 00:48:05.320 --> 00:48:08.079 go way down to the ground. You can't killing. Yeah, if they 642 00:48:08.079 --> 00:48:12.480 didn't fall apart so that and and spread seeds everywhere, they'd make pretty good 643 00:48:12.480 --> 00:48:19.639 tree. But there's things you don't want to plant around hackburge fees because of 644 00:48:19.679 --> 00:48:22.400 the root system the city. This is one of them, Yeah, because 645 00:48:22.440 --> 00:48:28.000 the roots are just take over the whole thing, and things like nantina isn't 646 00:48:28.119 --> 00:48:35.119 used do pretty well around them. It's about about it pretty tough plants. 647 00:48:35.440 --> 00:48:38.079 And also to help stay a war in the landscape, always apply of mults 648 00:48:38.400 --> 00:48:42.480 there you And speaking of which, we got a big old truck load of 649 00:48:42.559 --> 00:48:46.800 nice clicking malts. Very satisfying to see pretty much like that, no matter, 650 00:48:46.840 --> 00:48:52.760 it is good stuff. It smells nice new Yeah, okay, thank 651 00:48:52.800 --> 00:48:59.039 you, very mulch. Heard that. Okay, So anyway, that's kind 652 00:48:59.079 --> 00:49:01.960 of what's going on out the landscape this week. It's any we're kind of 653 00:49:02.000 --> 00:49:07.800 a beginning to get into it a sort of transitionary period between really hot and 654 00:49:07.840 --> 00:49:12.920 really cold weather, and people are getting anxious out there. I noticed in 655 00:49:12.960 --> 00:49:19.800 the landscape they're they're really wanting to what falls coming here and it's just just 656 00:49:19.920 --> 00:49:22.199 too hot right now. Good time to do ground prep and all that. 657 00:49:22.480 --> 00:49:27.039 Good time to do some planning. Also, think of other things you might 658 00:49:27.119 --> 00:49:30.760 want the landscape, such as lighting and what and what kind of flowering shrubs 659 00:49:30.760 --> 00:49:35.559 and trees and whatnot to give you some interest in the landscape, and try 660 00:49:35.599 --> 00:49:39.239 to create one that does very well in our soil. And we'll survive these 661 00:49:39.360 --> 00:49:44.760 weather extremes we have here, you know, you get that really cool computer 662 00:49:44.840 --> 00:49:49.519 program that folks are doing some planning. You can made it look like it's 663 00:49:49.559 --> 00:49:52.800 already there. Yeah, it's pretty nice. It doesn't do it on its 664 00:49:52.840 --> 00:49:55.280 own though, No, you have to have one certified bonified no one what 665 00:49:55.880 --> 00:50:00.400 going on? Kind of guy running it? I guess so, but no, 666 00:50:00.519 --> 00:50:05.320 it doesn't, it doesn't. It's not an AI thing. No, 667 00:50:05.320 --> 00:50:10.480 No, it's called Larry I Larry Intelligent. It'll probably come that day somewhere, 668 00:50:10.559 --> 00:50:14.840 will You'll you'll ask the AI what kind of plants do well in my 669 00:50:14.920 --> 00:50:19.440 part? Yeah, and then it'll give you a list of plants. But 670 00:50:19.480 --> 00:50:22.440 it can't design it, No, it can't. It has not the ability 671 00:50:22.519 --> 00:50:25.880 to do that. Yeah, so that's that's what we come in handy very 672 00:50:25.960 --> 00:50:30.960 That's all I'll be doing for the rest of the morning. Got figured that 673 00:50:30.800 --> 00:50:34.280 away. Come by the nursery shop. We had to offer. We got 674 00:50:34.280 --> 00:50:37.119 all kinds of stuff and say, that's really nice looking new trees. We're 675 00:50:37.119 --> 00:50:40.920 getting the points that is ordered. Pansies are getting started to right now in 676 00:50:42.000 --> 00:50:45.239 the greenhouse, so that'll be ready pretty soon too. And h it's just 677 00:50:45.360 --> 00:50:52.880 a real busy time for us. So anyway, tom yep, Well, 678 00:50:52.239 --> 00:50:55.480 it's too let's say see you next week.
