Speaker 2: And good morning, Welcome to Green Country Gardener on this
Speaker 2: Saturday morning. I'm Nathan Thompson in with our gardening expert
Speaker 2: Larry Glass.
Speaker 3: Good morning, Larry, Good morning. How are you today?
Speaker 2: Oh I'm great man, I'm doing good. It's a little
Speaker 2: chilly in here. I know it's hot outside.
Speaker 3: We're just talking about I'm looking at the thermometer on
Speaker 3: the wall. Seventy five. Yeah, and it seems cold. It's Sunday,
Speaker 3: it's going to be seventy two, exactly. I have to
Speaker 3: get out the flannels.
Speaker 2: Well, we certainly do need the cooler weather as we
Speaker 2: get into our fall planting. Now, this is the last
Speaker 2: official day of summer and the actual fall begins tomorrow.
Speaker 2: But and you know, It certainly has felt like the
Speaker 2: last day.
Speaker 3: Of forty eight hour transition period.
Speaker 2: Exactly. You know, I think this is probably the most
Speaker 2: on time that Mother Nature has been to make the
Speaker 2: change for our seasons around here. Crazy, it really is. Well,
Speaker 2: if you have any questions for Larry about fall gardening,
Speaker 2: you can give us a call here.
Speaker 3: It's a lot out there, milk with all the solder
Speaker 3: telephone that's right.
Speaker 2: Till free one eight hundred and seven nine three six
Speaker 2: seven four nine five nine three six for your calls
Speaker 2: about gardening, Larry. Lots of things going on.
Speaker 3: Hey, this is a transition between the summer and fall.
Speaker 3: And in response to that, we have a significant quantity
Speaker 3: of chrysanthemums at the nursery. And these are rather large ones.
Speaker 3: And somebody came yesterday they couldn't get them all hardly
Speaker 3: into their car.
Speaker 2: Oh my goodness.
Speaker 3: So anyway, there's some of them are just bigger around
Speaker 3: as a bushel basket. Some we have some small ones too,
Speaker 3: So they're open right now that they're getting ready to bloom.
Speaker 3: They respond to the day of the length day, the
Speaker 3: length of the Hello, little tongue tied this morning. Allergies
Speaker 3: are a problem to anyway, they're responding to the shortening
Speaker 3: of the length of the day by blooming. And I
Speaker 3: noticed that the mom's out in people's yards are doing
Speaker 3: the same thing, so uh, it's time. Also, we have
Speaker 3: a flowering Kale's interesting plant. It looks kind of nondescripting
Speaker 3: green right now, but when it when it gets cooler,
Speaker 3: when it gets found in the fifties and fifties and
Speaker 3: forties at night, they changed color. It's rather significant color too.
Speaker 3: And I like to compose them with with pansies by
Speaker 3: the front door someplace where where you see it a lot.
Speaker 3: But anyway, so Kayler out too. Pansies are are out also.
Speaker 3: We have we've sold love pansies so far and we
Speaker 3: have about ten thousand square feet of pansies my goodness
Speaker 3: coming up in the back in the greenhouses too for
Speaker 3: the next generation coming on. So it's a funny thing though.
Speaker 3: This week the power went out, yes, oh boy, and
Speaker 3: you know how to get in the greenhouse. Oh yeah,
Speaker 3: we had generators going and all that. Then it popped
Speaker 3: back on so we were okay. So that was scary too.
Speaker 2: That's good.
Speaker 3: It's tens and thousands of pancies out there and that's
Speaker 3: that's a lot of a lot of Yeah, you can't
Speaker 3: get replacement plants at this point too.
Speaker 2: They're all right, so right, well it's it's certainly been
Speaker 2: up and down, uh with the weather here recently, and obviously.
Speaker 3: Up and heat down with rain.
Speaker 2: Yes, totally. Let's hold fingers crossed.
Speaker 3: That was nice as the little rain we had yesterday was.
Speaker 2: It was nice. We have war coming on the way tomorrow.
Speaker 2: Probably don't bom me, don't kill the messenger.
Speaker 3: What do I need to do to prepare my ground
Speaker 3: for the panzins? Well, first of all, you you probably
Speaker 3: need to sharpen your shovel right now, because I know
Speaker 3: that from experience, the ground as hard as a rock,
Speaker 3: So it does need to be prepared. So if you can,
Speaker 3: as much as possible, do some degree of ground preparation
Speaker 3: before planting your fall blooming plants. So now the opportunity
Speaker 3: is good for that right now. If if you don't
Speaker 3: get to it till say Monday or Tuesday, it is fine.
Speaker 3: We're gonna have some rain. It'll help, yes, break up
Speaker 3: the soil. And if you can possibly get out there
Speaker 3: and break it up before the rain, the water will
Speaker 3: go deeper into the ground before it runs down the street.
Speaker 2: There you go.
Speaker 3: So by increasing the breaking up the soil, it penetrates
Speaker 3: deeper and you get better water storage that way too.
Speaker 3: So time to get the shovel out and maybe grind
Speaker 3: a point on it and put on some good heavy
Speaker 3: shoes so you can jump on it.
Speaker 2: You go, there you go.
Speaker 3: Yeah, I was swinging a pic this week, just crazy
Speaker 3: trying to get that ground blsted on a project. Man,
Speaker 3: it's just awful.
Speaker 2: It is awful.
Speaker 3: Anyway, I can't wait to get ready. We can get back,
Speaker 3: get back on our schedule. We're so far behind in
Speaker 3: our schedule simply because you just can't work so many
Speaker 3: hours during the heat. So it slowed us down an
Speaker 3: awful lot. So get the beds ready. The ground is warm,
Speaker 3: the air will be cool. Some time is prying for
Speaker 3: fall punting. Remember to prepare the soil once again, add
Speaker 3: composts and or fertilizer and water it in real Well,
Speaker 3: if you get the water levels up before you plant
Speaker 3: your your pansies or your kale, they'll they'll do a
Speaker 3: lot better. I told somebody yesterday, Well you just need
Speaker 3: to dig a bigger hole and maybe plant it in
Speaker 3: some mud. You know, get some some moisture in there,
Speaker 3: get some wetness in there, and the interface between the pot.
Speaker 3: If you take a plant out of a out of
Speaker 3: a pot, you see a lot of rits along the
Speaker 3: edge and that tends to form somewhat of a barrier
Speaker 3: between the soil and the root ball itself. So if
Speaker 3: you rough it up a little bit and maybe plant
Speaker 3: it in some significantly wet soil, kind of pack it
Speaker 3: in a little not too tight, but you know, just
Speaker 3: kind of back fill it with some good wet soil,
Speaker 3: they'll do a lot better. You really don't ever want
Speaker 3: to plant anything in dry soil.
Speaker 2: It's very true.
Speaker 3: Dry good, good about three hours your plant we go.
Speaker 2: Needs those nutrients in a good moi soil to really
Speaker 2: help it take on.
Speaker 3: Yeah, it's a diffusion, it's a simple term for it.
Speaker 3: The water just gets drawn out of the plant and
Speaker 3: it it suffers a lot. So you want to make
Speaker 3: sure that you have a significant amount of moisture in
Speaker 3: this soil prior to planting, as well as a maintenance
Speaker 3: of moisture sure as you go along too. Other words,
Speaker 3: go to the garage and push the button.
Speaker 2: Let's see, I I don't I have the old bag.
Speaker 2: Actually go to the spickett and turn on my soaker.
Speaker 2: I have a soaker.
Speaker 3: Yeah, I have a soaker in my I use my
Speaker 3: my phone.
Speaker 2: Oh yeah, see yeah, well I'm old fashioned.
Speaker 3: I guess a lot of my customers do that too.
Speaker 3: They just love that.
Speaker 2: Yeah.
Speaker 3: Oh it looks a little right.
Speaker 2: I just have to walk outside it comes up. Yeah, okay, yeah,
Speaker 2: I just I don't have like an irrigation system for
Speaker 2: for my yard, for my lawn. But I know you could.
Speaker 2: I know you could. There's a lot of things that
Speaker 2: need to be fixed. In my heart. It's been, but
Speaker 2: it's I've noticed. It's it's time for me to make
Speaker 2: the change because I I planted very simply some petunias
Speaker 2: and they're still doing well. Believe it or not, my
Speaker 2: petunias are still doing very well. My dahlia not so much.
Speaker 2: Dahlia has given up the ghost.
Speaker 3: It's a little a little too hot here for them,
Speaker 3: and in the heat of the summer they do pretty well.
Speaker 3: We had them up and when I lived in Chicago,
Speaker 3: we had them, and even in Georgia when we were there.
Speaker 3: It's cooler there too.
Speaker 2: Yeah.
Speaker 3: Here, big beautiful blooms, especially up up North are absolutely perfect.
Speaker 2: Massive. Yeah. I think the biggest bloom I got on
Speaker 2: on was maybe the size of a chocolate chip cookie.
Speaker 2: That's all I was able to get out this year.
Speaker 3: I'm telling well, it does really well. Here a Harley
Speaker 3: High Biscuits. They had the flowers that are dinner plate
Speaker 3: and we've had good luck with those in people's landscapes
Speaker 3: and and uh some others and salvias and whatnot. They
Speaker 3: did pretty well. Yeah, and roses Sharon's shruged. It does
Speaker 3: very well. So there are some flats they'll do well.
Speaker 2: Yeah. My parents actually have rows of Sharon in their
Speaker 2: garden and it's just extremely well.
Speaker 3: They're a little messy, but they are okay.
Speaker 2: They are. That's really messy for me right now is
Speaker 2: my stupid pecan tree? Yeah, webworm, I have webworm. Yes,
Speaker 2: it's been awful and now I have little tiny I
Speaker 2: guess it's bark. I don't know about sand size it is.
Speaker 2: If I park my car under my pecan tree, I
Speaker 2: get little black specks that are coming off of the
Speaker 2: tree and then it's they're sticky, So I don't know.
Speaker 3: What those are. Worms up there, the tank caterpillars they
Speaker 3: eat the leaves, okay, and what's going your car is
Speaker 3: what it's called frats Okay. Yeah, so I have a
Speaker 3: very kind word for what it really is.
Speaker 2: So worms believing themselves on my car. That's great. Okay,
Speaker 2: it's time for our first break here, our Green Country
Speaker 2: Guard over a two minute break. We'll be back with
Speaker 2: a hopefully no warm poop after this break.

Speaker 2: You may be hearing it on through the grapevine. It
Speaker 2: is still a green Country gardener here on K one
Speaker 2: and KGGF. I'm Nathan Thompson, along with our guarding expert
Speaker 2: Larry Glass. Phones are open right now. Lines are open
Speaker 2: for calls toll free one eight hundred seven five nine
Speaker 2: three six Larry, what should we be doing in the
Speaker 2: garden right now?
Speaker 3: We're getting ready to have a rather busy time in
Speaker 3: the garden. Actually, yeah, despite all the stuff that falls
Speaker 3: out of the sky. Anyway, if you had time to
Speaker 3: plant trees, and you've got to consider several factors and
Speaker 3: climbing a tree, do you want something that's gonna drip
Speaker 3: stuff all over your car?
Speaker 8: No?
Speaker 2: I did not make that choice. A tree, all right.
Speaker 2: It's an old tree. So we were just talking about it.
Speaker 2: Seventy five foots so obviously somebody way long ago decide
Speaker 2: to plant that. But I'm paying the consequences.
Speaker 3: Now, factoris you have to consider our utilities. Where's the
Speaker 3: water line coming into the house, where's the sewer line
Speaker 3: going out of the house, where's the veried electric line,
Speaker 3: all these other things. So you want to have that
Speaker 3: located if you will, before you do that. We're going
Speaker 3: into a project two weeks ago and I called for
Speaker 3: the utility companies to come out. The gas company was
Speaker 3: there the next day, but it took a week and
Speaker 3: a half for the others to get out there. And
Speaker 3: I think it's because all the construction we have down
Speaker 3: on there. But anyway, so nowhere all your utilities are
Speaker 3: also look at your drainage patterns too. When you have
Speaker 3: planted tree in the ground, its root mass will tend
Speaker 3: to swell the ground up a little bit. And I
Speaker 3: see that more often than not. Actually, even though it's
Speaker 3: a deep rooted tree, we don't have deep soil there
Speaker 3: for the most part, and that the mass of the
Speaker 3: root will actually swell the ground up and call some
Speaker 3: problems with drainage if you have a critical drainage issue.
Speaker 3: I know a lot of people in town do have
Speaker 3: rather critical drainage patterns in the yard. Critical meaning it's
Speaker 3: just enough to let the water out when it rains,
Speaker 3: and if you get that backed up and it swell,
Speaker 3: you're going to have some pooling and potential water in
Speaker 3: the house in some cases. So you want to make
Speaker 3: sure that the it's out of drainage patterns, out of
Speaker 3: utility right aways and stuff. And it probably gives you
Speaker 3: an area about the size of this headphones I plat
Speaker 3: the tree. Also consider on a planetal tree, some of
Speaker 3: them can be kind of messy, yes I'll say sweet
Speaker 3: gums or something. Yes, they're a mess and some others
Speaker 3: the Bradford parents are a little messy, you know, once
Speaker 3: and once a year or so they kind of fall
Speaker 3: apart in storms. So consider what the what the tree
Speaker 3: is going to do. And there are several species of
Speaker 3: trees that are what we call dioecious, meaning male and
Speaker 3: female on the same or on separate plants. So for instance,
Speaker 3: a Chinese pistache is a pretty popular tree and it's
Speaker 3: it's dioecious and the males are very clean and tidy,
Speaker 3: where the females are just messy.
Speaker 2: On that open up that one.
Speaker 3: So you want to make sure not the plant very female.
Speaker 3: A tree of any kind of InKo tree or a
Speaker 3: pistache near a swimming pool or something like that. It's
Speaker 3: just another mess clean up after, so keep that in mind. Also,
Speaker 3: what is this tree going to do as far as
Speaker 3: dumping stuff on the ground is concerned. So and also
Speaker 3: when you plant a tree you wanted to work for,
Speaker 3: you also know the words, well, golly, what what? Why
Speaker 3: am I planting this thing? A lot of people like
Speaker 3: to shade their house in the afternoon. You can safe
Speaker 3: some on the air conditioning bills quite a bit if
Speaker 3: the western part of the house is shielded somewhat, so
Speaker 3: that helps too. And and aesthetics very important. Fall colored
Speaker 3: people are really really after this fall colored and looking
Speaker 3: at the trees, fall color is probably gonna bomb house.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I don't think we have it.
Speaker 3: We do get some good rain coming up. I think
Speaker 3: the trees will recover a little bit and we'll have
Speaker 3: a good, good fall color coming into middle October. It's
Speaker 3: just not that far away.
Speaker 2: Really, Yeah, it's really not right. I've seen a lot
Speaker 2: of dead looking thieves.
Speaker 3: I know my trees in the front yard. I personally,
Speaker 3: I live on Mars and I've been watering just enough
Speaker 3: to water the trees. The grass will come back but
Speaker 3: I don't want to lose my trees. It will cost
Speaker 3: me more money to have them taken down for the water.
Speaker 3: So I traditionally when it dries up like this, I
Speaker 3: prioritize the water on basically just to keep the trees going.
Speaker 3: So yeah, So if you're if you're maple trees for instance,
Speaker 3: are looking pretty good shape, and the leaves are you know,
Speaker 3: nice and flat, I'm not hanging down and the breeze
Speaker 3: and all that, chances are you'll have some pretty good
Speaker 3: fall color on them. But if your ground is really
Speaker 3: dry and you know, you can look down there and
Speaker 3: see the lava, all the all the foundations of the
Speaker 3: building and Sydney, Australia, big huge, if you have that,
Speaker 3: then the chances are you won't have much of any
Speaker 3: good fall color at all, even a pistache or something
Speaker 3: like that. I just really want to perform that. Well, yeah,
Speaker 3: because they're kind of going into sleep mode right now,
Speaker 3: and they.
Speaker 2: Just that's so unfortunate that we we've had such a
Speaker 2: I mean we started off pretty well, I mean we
Speaker 2: had the drought obviously last year, and then this year
Speaker 2: we started out pretty good so far, but here we
Speaker 2: are back in that pattern until tomorrow. Anyway.
Speaker 3: Yeah, I think it's a cycle. It's a ten year cycle,
Speaker 3: so it'll it'll go back to normal next year of
Speaker 3: the year after start getting a little bit more normal.
Speaker 3: But anyway, so fall color is an important factor, and
Speaker 3: there are a lot of trees that really have good
Speaker 3: fall color. The maples are the prime choice for that,
Speaker 3: and the Chinese pistache also is another one that has
Speaker 3: excellent fall color.
Speaker 2: Yeah.
Speaker 3: So okay, also time to plant some shrubs to in
Speaker 3: the landscape. Bernie bush is a good one, okay. Bernie
Speaker 3: bush has excellent fall color. Yeah, and it's it's a
Speaker 3: member of the want of his family, so you know
Speaker 3: it's tough and this one. I have several forms of
Speaker 3: Bernie bush. I've allowed them other than to rather large,
Speaker 3: one of which I had to cut back this winter
Speaker 3: because it's too large. Ice cream truck going down.
Speaker 2: There, driven by our own Dave Woodell having an ice
Speaker 2: cream truck right to our studio.
Speaker 3: Anyway, the burning bush has an excellent fall color, very
Speaker 3: reliable too, So it's a good one to have in
Speaker 3: the landscape and you can do anything with them. I
Speaker 3: have some in tree for them, and some of them
Speaker 3: shrubs about this hall, so you can do a lot
Speaker 3: of things for them. They're pretty tough plants too, so
Speaker 3: and and you know, barxwoods can be planted right now.
Speaker 3: And Nandina's seen plant them anytime. They don't care, they
Speaker 3: just they just sort of hang out and do very
Speaker 3: well good. So there's a lot of things you can
Speaker 3: be planted in this timeframe, in between the first and
Speaker 3: of October in the middle of November, it's a good
Speaker 3: time for landscape installations. That's right.
Speaker 2: That's one of my plans that I will be doing
Speaker 2: as well. Well, we'll go back on some of the
Speaker 2: other things that we should be doing in the garden.
Speaker 2: Right now, we're up on our next two minute break, Larry,
Speaker 2: so we will be back after that talking about what
Speaker 2: else we should be doing in the garden and talk
Speaker 2: about how to handle our lawns. You're listening to Green

Speaker 2: for our Green Country Gardener program lines are open and
Speaker 2: give us a call toll free one eight hundred seven
Speaker 2: five nine six seven four nine five nine three six. Larry,
Speaker 2: we were talking about what we should be doing in
Speaker 2: the garden right now. We're talking about planting trees and shrubs.
Speaker 3: Also one thing iris. A lot of people have a
Speaker 3: lot of iris plants in the yard and I have
Speaker 3: some of my r This last year they just went crazy.
Speaker 3: They iris sod so I needed divie them. There's an
Speaker 3: area just north of the house where nobody goes, and
Speaker 3: the iris that do very well there. It's a groundcover actually,
Speaker 3: and then they bloom pretty in the spring. What I
Speaker 3: have or twice blooming iris, and they did bloom, but
Speaker 3: they didn't bloom this summer. Maybe they're just waiting for anyway,
Speaker 3: So it's time to divide those iris. And they're kind
Speaker 3: of an old fashioned thing. I remember my grandmother was
Speaker 3: really into her iris and it was quite a clutter
Speaker 3: event with the tea and cookies. You know, they have
Speaker 3: everybody over to look at the iris.
Speaker 2: So of course, of.
Speaker 3: Course, anyway, so's time for that. Also time for the
Speaker 3: last time to fertilize those roses. They're going to have
Speaker 3: a growth spurt between October and November and early end
Speaker 3: of this December. Hard to believe that's close, but anyway,
Speaker 3: they're going to.
Speaker 4: Have a.
Speaker 3: Bit of a flush, if you will, for a while.
Speaker 3: So you want to capitalize on that a little bit
Speaker 3: and maybe give them just a little bit of fertilizer.
Speaker 3: A fertilizer and moms also your existing mums. They're setting
Speaker 3: their blooms right now. See, you'd be very careful not
Speaker 3: to put too much fertilizer on them. So if they're
Speaker 3: really healthy and doing well, I wouldnt worry about it.
Speaker 3: But if they're kind of sickly looking, you might want
Speaker 3: to let it rain on them. Yes, yes, you guys
Speaker 3: are so confident. That's going to say.
Speaker 2: They're pretty confident. We're going to see some rain tomorrow
Speaker 2: and into the overnight hours.
Speaker 3: Months and other perennials at this time are kind of
Speaker 3: a winter preparation sort of thing going on too, So
Speaker 3: it's a little bit of fertilized one fertilizer trees and
Speaker 3: larger shrubs. Using a tree or a shrub fertilizer, be
Speaker 3: sure to follow the instructions and remember fertilizer diffuses into
Speaker 3: the soil, you put it on the ground, you figure,
Speaker 3: well it just goes magically somehow it gets down in
Speaker 3: there or it needs to be. But it uses the
Speaker 3: process of diffusion. So I wouldn't fertilize my shrubs and
Speaker 3: trees till after the rain. And hopefully you guys are
Speaker 3: going to let some rain come in later on the
Speaker 3: week which will help just all the grounds. So if you,
Speaker 3: if I might seeing kind of silly out there watering
Speaker 3: your your shrubs and trees after it rains. But if
Speaker 3: you fertilize you and it doesn't rain, you need to
Speaker 3: water it in so it does get down where where
Speaker 3: it needs to be, Okay, So kind to fertilize your trees,
Speaker 3: shrubs and roads and so uh yeah, I mentioned earlier
Speaker 3: about your moms. Don't fertilize your moms or other perennials
Speaker 3: at this time. They're getting ready for winter preps. You
Speaker 3: really don't want to spur on a lot of growth
Speaker 3: fresh growth on your on your existing perennials because they're
Speaker 3: getting ready for winter. So two, I also your your
Speaker 3: trees could probably use some fertilizer too. Here also, I
Speaker 3: know or soil here is you know, kind of pour
Speaker 3: so you want to do that, and there's several ways
Speaker 3: to do that. Consider the drip line. The drip line
Speaker 3: is a point furthest away from from the tree canopy
Speaker 3: out of that's typically that's where the feeder roots are.
Speaker 3: So you want to get your spread around. Just put
Speaker 3: some fertilizer in it and a ring around that area
Speaker 3: and watered in real good, and it'll do the tree
Speaker 3: some good. Yeah, they know a little bit better. They're
Speaker 3: going to go to torment here. Yeah, And that's really
Speaker 3: governed by the length of day primarily, So you want
Speaker 3: to fertilize them. They're ready to go also, and once
Speaker 3: again in the spring too, wouldn't hurt. Be sure also
Speaker 3: to have two inches of mulch on your azaleas for
Speaker 3: the winter. A lot of people forget about their z
Speaker 3: alias and there's no mulch on them, and we're at
Speaker 3: the far northern reach of them here actually for most
Speaker 3: of them, and they get a lot of dye off
Speaker 3: on them, sure, merely because they were too dry and
Speaker 3: not multi enough. This is if there's any plant that
Speaker 3: is not well suited for this area, that's his alias.
Speaker 3: But people still plant them, yes, of course in specific sites.
Speaker 3: But the preparation for the zlious is very important. Also,
Speaker 3: the maintenance is very important. And if those roots there's
Speaker 3: kind of shallow rooted because too cold, too dry on them,
Speaker 3: it has a new to be impact on the plant.
Speaker 3: So we have to maintain a layer of multi on
Speaker 3: your Xelious and also be sure they don't they're not
Speaker 3: allowed to get too dry because they're just not capable.
Speaker 3: If you're examined, the riot system of an azilious very fibrous,
Speaker 3: and they just don't have the water storage capacity that
Speaker 3: a lot of other plants might have. They turnips, which
Speaker 3: do well here by the way, of course, So anyway,
Speaker 3: so make sure you have a two inches at least
Speaker 3: a two inch layer of mult on your Zealious for
Speaker 3: the winter, and that holds true for a lot of
Speaker 3: things too, for heartiness. Also in the winter it's been
Speaker 3: a long winter, nobody just wanted to be out. Nobody's
Speaker 3: wanting to go out and work in the yard when
Speaker 3: it is hot and the mulch decomposes and it's a
Speaker 3: good building material for squirrels and birds, so it just
Speaker 3: kind of goes away a little bit. So you want
Speaker 3: to add some mults to that, so heavy layer Emich
Speaker 3: is very important for your shrubs.
Speaker 2: For all shrubs, including including those.
Speaker 3: Yeah yeah, Nandina's even also and so on. So okay,
Speaker 3: good to know. Also pre emergent herbicides uh in the
Speaker 3: in your lawn. You want to do that right soon.
Speaker 3: It's been kind of hot and the little seeds have
Speaker 3: I don't seen the sprouting in my yard.
Speaker 2: Maybe maybe I'm trying to weeds. It's funny you say that.
Speaker 2: I saw my neighbor out mowing the other day. I
Speaker 2: was like, what are you doing? So I got just
Speaker 2: mowing the mowing the dirt. Yeah, I'm like, okay, Well.
Speaker 3: The good thing is, uh, I guess when they built
Speaker 3: the house they had to dig the ground out to
Speaker 3: put in the sidewalks. There's about a one foot margin,
Speaker 3: that's all. I had the boat right there. You go,
Speaker 3: there's actually soil down there.
Speaker 2: That's right. That's right.
Speaker 3: So anyway, so that was it took me five minutes
Speaker 3: to cut the rest last week.
Speaker 2: That's good.
Speaker 3: So anyway, pre emergent over side will stop a whole
Speaker 3: lot of the handbit and chick weed that comes up.
Speaker 3: You know those weeds that come up in the spring.
Speaker 3: They have a kind of a small scalop leave and
Speaker 3: these purple flowers that come up, yes, and which is
Speaker 3: I guess kind of pretty.
Speaker 2: Hey, it looked well in my yard.
Speaker 3: You washing away, So anyway, if you don't want those
Speaker 3: the time to do that right now, and you want
Speaker 3: to be sure to water it before and after so
Speaker 3: it gets down there where it needs to be to
Speaker 3: do its work. Okay, Golly, I'll be aware of a
Speaker 3: lot of boar activity in the fall and the crap
Speaker 3: myrtles this year. Golly of the crap myrtles. Scale insect
Speaker 3: really really bad. I was at als yesterday and it's
Speaker 3: just covered in them. And uh, the amid a cloprin
Speaker 3: works pretty well, I think when looking at it, I
Speaker 3: think a lot of the damage has already been done,
Speaker 3: so they're kind of kind of sleeping right now. But
Speaker 3: it's a good I did to be proactive on that
Speaker 3: and do something about that. And the metaphilprid it's a
Speaker 3: systemic nicotinoid and sexicide that does very well to control
Speaker 3: the population of scale insects, and you have to be
Speaker 3: persistent with it too. I don't know if it'll last
Speaker 3: the entire timeframe about a year. It's supposed to create marbles,
Speaker 3: but you might have to apply it later on again
Speaker 3: in June. But it's a good idea to some be
Speaker 3: proactive with it and get some pay emerges down there
Speaker 3: so it'll stop the proliferation of these scale insects.
Speaker 2: Always something to do in the garden, right, Always something
Speaker 2: to do? All right, Well, we have something to do
Speaker 2: right now, and that's take our next two minute break
Speaker 2: here on K one n k GGF on our Green
Speaker 2: Country Gardener program. We'll be back with more after this

Speaker 5: Lax with the dream Artigan.
Speaker 2: Well, we're not heading to l a X today, but
Speaker 2: we are having a party in the USA here on
Speaker 2: Green Country Garden, Jos Larry Glass here. We were talking
Speaker 2: a little bit about lawns just a second ago, Larry,
Speaker 2: and you're talking about bores as well, those worms and
Speaker 2: all that good stuff. So what should we be doing
Speaker 2: in our lawns in the.
Speaker 3: Garden right now? One more? One more? Yes, I'm sorry,
Speaker 3: that's in the garden and that's a cabbage worms.
Speaker 2: Yes.
Speaker 3: On coal crops okay and ornamental kale. There is the
Speaker 3: basillas thorne genesis is very effective on that bt bt okay. First, well,
Speaker 3: well there's another one called spindad. It's very effective also,
Speaker 3: and both of these are organics and they're very effective actually,
Speaker 3: and controlling pests on your your fall crops of spinach
Speaker 3: and cabbage and tale and let us and some one
Speaker 3: just kind of wash it off and he doesn't hurt people.
Speaker 3: But it's good stuff to kill booms anyway. On your lawns.
Speaker 3: It's time to getting time to install that fescue seed,
Speaker 3: but time's running out, so if you haven't gotten a
Speaker 3: soil test, well, you might want to just give it
Speaker 3: a try. And a deep pilling with lots of composts
Speaker 3: will make your efforts more successful. In other words, you
Speaker 3: just don't want to scatter it on the ground because
Speaker 3: the ground right now is kind of like a super highway.
Speaker 2: It's very true.
Speaker 3: I forty in my backyard, it's really hard, so you
Speaker 3: won't have very good luck be feeding the birds and whatnot.
Speaker 3: So we do have some rain coming in and it'll
Speaker 3: help loosen up the soil. You might want to consider
Speaker 3: irrigating before you do that, you get some moisture levels
Speaker 3: up in the ground, so they will grass seas will
Speaker 3: take root before the fall rains come and wash it
Speaker 3: all down the hill. Yeah, so it's very important to
Speaker 3: at least rough up the soil somewhat to get some
Speaker 3: kind of integration of the seed into the soil and
Speaker 3: kind of lee. If the ground's really hard, it just
Speaker 3: will will.
Speaker 2: Not the seed, No, not at all.
Speaker 3: So if you have a fairly good size yard, you
Speaker 3: might consider parceling it out into sections. We have a
Speaker 3: fairly long time frame right now, then we can do
Speaker 3: the rescue seed, say to the middle of October. It
Speaker 3: would be the latest time you can do it. So
Speaker 3: that's two weeks, three weeks away, right, get on the
Speaker 3: ball exactly, exactly. Actually, the last of August is a
Speaker 3: good time to start on that. So there's about a
Speaker 3: two month window of opportunity for that installation of fescue seed.
Speaker 3: But preparation, like anything else, is very important. I mean,
Speaker 3: you don't plant the bean seeds on bare, hard dirt,
Speaker 3: same kind of thing.
Speaker 2: So how deep should somebody till?
Speaker 3: Well, I would go at least two inches two inches
Speaker 3: the very least. Typically below that the crust and the soil,
Speaker 3: it's not as bad. And if your if your tiller
Speaker 3: is really fighting with you, you might you might well
Speaker 3: consider some solil amendment. It can be in the form
Speaker 3: of composed or pete moths or decomposed. Uh saw this
Speaker 3: I say decomposed because saw this as as the battery
Speaker 3: break down the cellulas and saw this. It absorbs nitrogen
Speaker 3: and that's important, Yeah, rogen and then will grow.
Speaker 2: Yes, you got to have that.
Speaker 3: So any decomposed material like that. So so try not
Speaker 3: to just do too much at one time. You might
Speaker 3: not might you might prioritize your areas and work outwards
Speaker 3: from that a little bit, just so you can have
Speaker 3: some good success. Because I know people, uh, they get
Speaker 3: tired of doing all that work. It's a lot of
Speaker 3: times just a matter of ours. This is too much
Speaker 3: work forgeted. So if you really want to get serious
Speaker 3: about it, either hire it done or or go ahead
Speaker 3: and bite the bullet and get your tailler out there
Speaker 3: and there go after it.
Speaker 14: Yea.
Speaker 2: I used to have a lot of fun on a tiller.
Speaker 2: I did as a kid. My my my grandfather was
Speaker 2: was a vegetable gardener. He had a huge garden in
Speaker 2: his backyard. And obviously every time we go into prepare it,
Speaker 2: we get out there on the tiller and just as
Speaker 2: a kid, just it was quite the sight to see.
Speaker 8: Arry.
Speaker 3: Yeah, I bet we lived in the suburban Chicago. We
Speaker 3: had this rather large vegetable garden in the utility right away.
Speaker 3: Oh that was a shocking how tall the corner I
Speaker 3: think sunflowers are like fifteen feet tall. It's amazing, beau.
Speaker 3: But ay, but the soil is good. There's that rich
Speaker 3: black soil up there, and the tailor just he just
Speaker 3: with two fingers, you can just till it, you know.
Speaker 3: But over here they bounce around absolutely like a bucking broncos.
Speaker 2: I was about to say that whenever I was helping
Speaker 2: my grandpa till it would certainly fell like.
Speaker 3: So anyway, So preparation is nine tenths of the law
Speaker 3: when it comes to pescue saw seed establishment also a
Speaker 3: bermuda grass, right, kind of leave it alone right now,
Speaker 3: I don't want to do too much. Don't try not
Speaker 3: to scalp it at this time of year. Some people
Speaker 3: I know, we'll do that though, they'll kind of tidy
Speaker 3: it up a little bit. Then you get some loss
Speaker 3: and it needs that layer of ventilation. If we have
Speaker 3: a colt spelt, you're going to get some loss in
Speaker 3: your bermuda grass if you do scalp it really low
Speaker 3: right at this point, so there needs some of that
Speaker 3: save the de thatching for the spring late you know,
Speaker 3: you know, very very late winter or early spring. Typically
Speaker 3: bermuda grass doesn't come out until first of May or so,
Speaker 3: so you've got the entire month of April to detach.
Speaker 3: So I'm just kind of trying to leave it alone
Speaker 3: right now, trying to cut it too low and just
Speaker 3: kind of water it if it needs it. Yeah, but
Speaker 3: I was looking at mine and I haven't watered it
Speaker 3: in three hundred years and there's still green down in there.
Speaker 3: So it'll it'll come back. We'll have a little bit
Speaker 3: of a surge after this rain. It'll green up a
Speaker 3: little bit. Then the freeze will get it. We'll get
Speaker 3: it right about Halloween. Difficats when that happens exactly. So permittograss,
Speaker 3: don't do don't do a lot to it. You can
Speaker 3: put a say, fertilizer on it. The potassium and phosphorus
Speaker 3: does help it survived the winter a little bit builds
Speaker 3: up the stolen strength a little bit on there too,
Speaker 3: so it doesn't hurt to fertilize it. But don't use
Speaker 3: a high nitrogen fertilizer. The time is over for that.
Speaker 3: The first of September is the last time we want
Speaker 3: to do a high nitrogen fertilizer mutagrass.
Speaker 2: Very good, that's good to know as well.
Speaker 3: So here did almost October, So you're thirty days late
Speaker 3: if you so, don't put too much nitrogen down there.
Speaker 2: Yeah, don't do that at all. Don't do that at all.
Speaker 2: All right, Well, we're gonna we're up out of our
Speaker 2: next break here, Larry. Where we come back, we'll be
Speaker 2: talking about obviously always planning four year landscaping and other
Speaker 2: idea as were listening to Green Country Gardener after this
Speaker 2: two minute break.
Speaker 14: In nineteen thirty nine, James Farley, the former chairman of
Speaker 14: the Democratic National Committee and Franklin Roosevelt's postmaster General, traveled
Speaker 14: to Bartlesville, Oklahoma to meet with Frank Phillips. This was
Speaker 14: a special meeting and for Frank a bit different, as
Speaker 14: Farley did not come to visit about oil or banking.
Speaker 14: He had another purpose. He came to Bartlesville to try
Speaker 14: to convince mister Phillips to buy the New York Yankees
Speaker 14: baseball team. The former owner had died in nineteen thirty nine,
Speaker 14: and Farley and others felt that Frank had the resources
Speaker 14: necessary to buy the ball club. Already a wonderful dynasty
Speaker 14: with such greats as Babe Ruth and Lou Garrick leading
Speaker 14: the way, the Yankees were known worldwide and would certainly
Speaker 14: provide great personal and professional exposure to Frank in to
Speaker 14: Phillips Petroleum. After much consideration, Frank decided not to buy
Speaker 14: the Yankees, and despite their continued success, he never regretted
Speaker 14: that decision, as he told his friends, I just good
Speaker 14: and buy them. I've always been a National League man.
Speaker 14: Come enjoy the magic of Wollarock and welcome home to Wollarock.
Speaker 9: Who do I call to get my trees trimmed?
Speaker 7: Kelly Banks Tree Service? Who can grind up these stumps
Speaker 7: in my yard? Kelly Banks Tree Service.
Speaker 9: There's a dead tree right by my house and I'm
Speaker 9: nervous it might fall.
Speaker 7: Well, you better call Kelly Banks Tree Service. What's that number?
Speaker 10: It's nine one eight day three five seven thousand. It's
Speaker 10: nine one eight day three five seven zero zero zero.
Speaker 9: Call it today for your tree trimming, stump grinding and
Speaker 9: tree removal needs.
Speaker 10: That's nine one eight day three five seven zero zero
Speaker 10: zero nine one eight day three five seven thousand.
Speaker 2: Suck it up.
Speaker 5: It's not a big deal.
Speaker 7: Just get over it. We've all heard it.
Speaker 15: But if you're experiencing extreme stress, it's not just in
Speaker 15: your head. It can affect your entire body because toxic
Speaker 15: stress can hurt us physically without us even knowing. If
Speaker 15: you've lost a job, worry about your next meal, or
Speaker 15: have trouble making it through the day. If you're feeling
Speaker 15: the effects of stress, we can help text stress to
Speaker 15: two on one two on one to find a solution.
Speaker 7: Drinking a German job.
Speaker 2: We are living the good life here on Green Country.
Speaker 2: Gardener Nathan Thompson Larry Glass on our final eight minutes
Speaker 2: of today's program talk about planning landscaping.
Speaker 3: Plan it's it's a good thing to do. You get
Speaker 3: a good idea of what what's going to look like
Speaker 3: and what it's going to cost to on the landscape.
Speaker 3: I've got some projects out and we've been really slow
Speaker 3: at progressing this summer. I wonder why. I can tell you, Oh,
Speaker 3: you're working out side and the heat all and then
Speaker 3: so I'm not I don't force my people to work
Speaker 3: too hard on that because we want to be able
Speaker 3: to go ahead and and get going with our work
Speaker 3: to get it all done. So so we're behind.
Speaker 2: Of course.
Speaker 3: That's surprises you anyway, but still having the plan ready
Speaker 3: to go and all that and get all the pricing
Speaker 3: and everything negotiated is very important on the landscape. And
Speaker 3: really timing is kind of important too when you plant, Yeah,
Speaker 3: you can plant in the heat. Would be prepared to
Speaker 3: do a bit more maintenance than you might want to
Speaker 3: do as far as water is concerned all that. So
Speaker 3: it's a good idea. Just well, we do hardscapes a
Speaker 3: lot of that in the hot summer. We're doing a
Speaker 3: hardscape project right now, but rather extensive carving in the
Speaker 3: side of a hill kind of a thing, and it's
Speaker 3: going along very nicely. We're finally going to get the
Speaker 3: paving done. There's no air circule it so hot, but anyway,
Speaker 3: so it'll be done probably the end of the week.
Speaker 3: We'll have it pretty well wrapped up. So that's that's
Speaker 3: kind of exciting. So, uh, we do landscape plans. I
Speaker 3: do designs on the on the computer. There you go
Speaker 3: and you get an aerial view and perspective views and
Speaker 3: all that you see, and also you're going to know
Speaker 3: exactly how much it's going to cost.
Speaker 2: That's important.
Speaker 3: So that's that way you can prepare for that and
Speaker 3: do your budgeting for that moment.
Speaker 2: All right, So right, and you guys can do a
Speaker 2: landscape project to it's any budget, really, yeah, you know
Speaker 2: that's that's it's not a I mean, it is an investment,
Speaker 2: and it's investment for your property. And but it doesn't
Speaker 2: have to just break the bank, right most of.
Speaker 3: The time, And we a lot of times were coming
Speaker 3: under budget on it too.
Speaker 2: That's good.
Speaker 3: You get the plants laid out and I'll kick that
Speaker 3: one out. We don't need one, yeah, exactly, you don't
Speaker 3: want to overdo it. You have to consider how big
Speaker 3: these plants are going to get too. So if you
Speaker 3: if you choose to go, you know, a lower budget
Speaker 3: and use smaller plants, you got to consider how big
Speaker 3: they're going to get in the future. Prinstance, a one
Speaker 3: down in burning bush. It's probably about the size of
Speaker 3: the microphone. It's about twelve eighteen inches higher, but they
Speaker 3: can get up to eight feet, So you gotta factor all.
Speaker 2: This stuff they do.
Speaker 3: I've been doing a design and trying not to over
Speaker 3: stuff it initially, so exactly, anyway we did and all
Speaker 3: the ground prepp and all that necessary too, and then
Speaker 3: the drainage. The drainage has to be proper to you
Speaker 3: don't want the water to go, you know, towards the house.
Speaker 2: Or that is a huge problem I have in my
Speaker 2: house because my front yard down slopes to my house.
Speaker 2: Oh yeah, it's awful.
Speaker 3: So Noah's art goes bubblubb exactly exactly.
Speaker 2: In fact, my garage I have so the water doesn't
Speaker 2: seep in my garage. Actually have a four inch thick
Speaker 2: piece of timber the bottom of my garage where they
Speaker 2: constructed the house. I was there, so I have a
Speaker 2: little speed hump to go into my garage.
Speaker 3: Oh that's fun.
Speaker 2: Yes, it's an.
Speaker 3: Old house when you're Porsche too. Yeah, around there it's
Speaker 3: kind of low on those two.
Speaker 2: So oh man, I work in radio. If you think
Speaker 2: I could afford a Porsche, boy, I'm telling you whatever.
Speaker 3: So anyway, I know my old truck is forty years old.
Speaker 3: Any problems going away anyway? Yeah, look at your drainage
Speaker 3: patterns too, and try not to create a problem. And
Speaker 3: one thing when we do a landscape is we very
Speaker 3: much respect the height of the floor of the house
Speaker 3: and it all should go away from that as much
Speaker 3: as possible. Sure, And you don't ever want to build
Speaker 3: up a wall up next to the house because you're
Speaker 3: just asking for moisture problems and watting dry rot and
Speaker 3: so on your on your studs in the house too,
Speaker 3: So everything should go away from the house. And I see,
Speaker 3: I go up and down to a lot of houses,
Speaker 3: just their logs, like.
Speaker 2: Some you may have driven by my house.
Speaker 3: Some of them had permanent sandbags in front of the house.
Speaker 2: My neighbor. My neighbor actually has sandbags, believe it or not,
Speaker 2: he does.
Speaker 3: Yeah, so it's just civil engineering. You just have to
Speaker 3: know that water typically runs downhill when it rains, so
Speaker 3: you want to try to deflect that water away from
Speaker 3: the house. And sometimes the situation gets so bad that
Speaker 3: you have to enter energy into the equation in the
Speaker 3: form of a say, a French drain. And we use
Speaker 3: a lot of you know, electric pumps too on that
Speaker 3: and say, oh my god, it's some pump. Well they're
Speaker 3: not really that expensive, so it's not that big of
Speaker 3: a deal, right, So we've done some some pump work
Speaker 3: too on that.
Speaker 2: Well, after we get done with the show, I will
Speaker 2: show you a picture of my house. Yeah, Hey, how
Speaker 2: everything slopes down and you're like, why did they build there? Anyway,
Speaker 2: what's going on at the nursery.
Speaker 3: What do you have going on in the nursery. We've
Speaker 3: got a great selection of mums right now, and flowering kale,
Speaker 3: flowering cabbage is up front. Also, pansies are coming in
Speaker 3: pretty hot and heavy, where we import some and we're
Speaker 3: growing some also so we can have a time frame
Speaker 3: when they're available. In other words, so we buy in
Speaker 3: the ones that are now, and then ours are growing
Speaker 3: out back, so we'll have a good selection over a
Speaker 3: long period of time. So we just don't like to
Speaker 3: be out in the prime time of selling mums and things. Also,
Speaker 3: trees are starting to come in real good. We can
Speaker 3: specially order any tree and want. We're special ordering a
Speaker 3: giant the giant, but a big ginkle tree for a customer. Yeah, yeah,
Speaker 3: they want a big one. That's good anyway. That's coming
Speaker 3: in also, And the shrubs are coming in real good.
Speaker 3: The burning bushes, the variegated liio opened, the dwarf heel ponds,
Speaker 3: all these other bushes are coming in right now. And
