H Garden Line with Skip Ricter. 2 00:00:06.280 --> 00:00:07.240 Mills. 3 00:00:11.439 --> 00:00:12.199 What a trip. 4 00:00:13.560 --> 00:00:21.440 Just watch him as well.

We've got some warm weather we're in 9 00:00:51.240 --> 00:00:53.159 the middle of right now, but boy'd be a good 10 00:00:53.200 --> 00:00:57.000 morning to get out there and enjoy. Enjoy being outside once. 11 00:00:57.240 --> 00:01:01.479 Unless you have headlights, you might want to wait just 12 00:01:01.520 --> 00:01:03.759 a little bit, but it's time to warm up and 13 00:01:03.759 --> 00:01:05.599 get ready for it. Let's talk about things that are 14 00:01:05.719 --> 00:01:07.840 of interest to you in gardening. What's going on in 15 00:01:07.879 --> 00:01:10.719 your yard right now? You got a question, give me 16 00:01:10.760 --> 00:01:15.159 a call seven one three two one two fifty eight 17 00:01:15.280 --> 00:01:18.480 seventy four seven one three two one two five eight 18 00:01:18.599 --> 00:01:23.159 seven four or make it easy, KTRH. Give us a call. 19 00:01:23.239 --> 00:01:25.760 We'll talk about the things that are of interest to you. 20 00:01:26.760 --> 00:01:29.799 I was hunting down a product the other day and uh, 21 00:01:30.200 --> 00:01:32.480 I couldn't believe it. I thought it was more widely available. 22 00:01:32.799 --> 00:01:37.040 It was a product for stopping regrowth of stumps and 23 00:01:37.079 --> 00:01:41.760 printing cuts and things like that. Because I've got a well, 24 00:01:41.799 --> 00:01:43.239 I've got a couple of things that are giving me 25 00:01:43.280 --> 00:01:45.519 some trouble with that. One is a crate myrtle. Crate 26 00:01:45.560 --> 00:01:49.319 myrtles are bad about re sprouting from the base and 27 00:01:49.400 --> 00:01:51.599 even from like if you cut off a limb of 28 00:01:51.640 --> 00:01:55.280 any size at all, you get resprouts all around where 29 00:01:55.319 --> 00:01:58.359 you cut it off. And there are hormones in the 30 00:01:58.400 --> 00:02:01.319 plant that can prevent that, and you can purchase and 31 00:02:01.640 --> 00:02:05.879 spray them on. One of them is called sucker stopper, 32 00:02:06.040 --> 00:02:09.280 and I see what's in there's several of them, something 33 00:02:09.319 --> 00:02:12.680 about stump ory sprouting as part of another one's name. Anyway, 34 00:02:14.120 --> 00:02:16.439 they work, and so I was trying to find that 35 00:02:16.439 --> 00:02:19.280 product spray on. In my case, it wasn't just a 36 00:02:19.319 --> 00:02:22.840 crape myrtle. It was a Vitex. Vitex is a beautiful 37 00:02:23.199 --> 00:02:29.680 blue blooming summer shrub slash tree. It's really kind of 38 00:02:29.719 --> 00:02:31.919 caught between the two. It's hard to get it to 39 00:02:32.000 --> 00:02:34.639 be one single trunk, although you can. I'm working on 40 00:02:34.680 --> 00:02:42.560 it right now, and I sucker type type reducing products 41 00:02:42.719 --> 00:02:44.319 are important if you're going to try to get it 42 00:02:44.319 --> 00:02:47.280 to be one trunk. But anyway, I've got one. I 43 00:02:47.319 --> 00:02:50.280 cut off all but one central trunk on and I'm 44 00:02:50.280 --> 00:02:51.680 trying to train it into a tree. I'm going to 45 00:02:51.719 --> 00:02:53.599 find out if it works before I tell you it 46 00:02:53.719 --> 00:02:56.159 works for sure. I think I can do it. We'll 47 00:02:56.199 --> 00:02:58.759 find out anyway. Bottom line is I couldn't find a product, 48 00:02:58.879 --> 00:03:02.800 and I went three different places looking around for the product, 49 00:03:03.639 --> 00:03:06.439 and finally I just, you know, I realized, if you're 50 00:03:06.479 --> 00:03:08.199 going to find something like that, where do you go 51 00:03:08.319 --> 00:03:12.520 for something that other people don't carry or even all 52 00:03:12.560 --> 00:03:16.120 the things that everybody carries. Southwest Fertilizer it's a corner 53 00:03:16.159 --> 00:03:20.080 of Businet and Runwick. Bob, you know, he's gosh. That 54 00:03:20.159 --> 00:03:22.439 place is now on it's seventieth year. By the way, 55 00:03:22.680 --> 00:03:25.719 Bob's not if you're listening, Bob, I just want to 56 00:03:25.719 --> 00:03:27.599 make sure we get that real clear, you and I both. 57 00:03:27.599 --> 00:03:33.759 There's somewhere south to seventy joking aside, It has been 58 00:03:33.800 --> 00:03:36.840 around for seventy years, and it's it's around for seventy 59 00:03:36.919 --> 00:03:40.240 years because they carry products people want, They treat people 60 00:03:40.280 --> 00:03:43.479 like they want to be treated, They have reasonable prices, 61 00:03:43.840 --> 00:03:48.240 and it just that's it. Friendly service, quality products and 62 00:03:48.319 --> 00:03:51.599 great selection. Corner Busnet and Renwick. Save yourself trouble running 63 00:03:51.599 --> 00:03:54.439 all over the place. Just go to Southwest and they're 64 00:03:54.439 --> 00:03:56.479 going to have it products like what I'm talking about 65 00:03:56.719 --> 00:04:00.719 for example. Then anyway it seems to be working so far, 66 00:04:00.759 --> 00:04:03.039 we're gonna we're gonna watch it and see how it goes. 67 00:04:03.840 --> 00:04:06.120 But that's a that's a pretty handy deal. It's kind 68 00:04:06.120 --> 00:04:09.120 of cool too, because you're basically taking a plant's natural 69 00:04:09.159 --> 00:04:12.599 hormones and you're turning it into something to help you 70 00:04:12.879 --> 00:04:14.560 get that plant to grow like you want it to be. 71 00:04:14.599 --> 00:04:17.399 By the way, of course, it's turf fertilizing season. Time 72 00:04:17.399 --> 00:04:19.399 to get out there and do that. You need to 73 00:04:19.399 --> 00:04:22.759 make sure you got what you need in order to fertilize. 74 00:04:22.800 --> 00:04:25.879 And if you go online to gardening with Skip dot com, 75 00:04:25.959 --> 00:04:30.720 that's my website, Gardening with Skip dot com, you'll find 76 00:04:30.800 --> 00:04:35.040 my schedules plural. There's one that is a lawn care schedule. 77 00:04:35.120 --> 00:04:41.600 It's mow water, fertilized air rate supplements, micro supplement. Well, 78 00:04:41.600 --> 00:04:44.120 that's on the schedule. The other one is what goes 79 00:04:44.160 --> 00:04:46.279 wrong with your lawn and what to do about it. 80 00:04:46.399 --> 00:04:49.839 That would be preventing weeds, that would be killing existing weeds, 81 00:04:49.879 --> 00:04:53.360 that would be dealing with diseases and dealing with insects 82 00:04:53.360 --> 00:04:56.839 for example. Both of those schedules are free. You can 83 00:04:56.920 --> 00:04:58.839 download them, you can stare at them on your computer 84 00:04:58.959 --> 00:05:02.120 or on your phone, whatever you won't do, and they work. 85 00:05:02.319 --> 00:05:04.279 By the way, while you're at Southwest, grab some of 86 00:05:04.319 --> 00:05:08.120 the Eagle turf fungicide if you're dealing with gray leaf spot. 87 00:05:08.519 --> 00:05:13.600 Gray leaf spot is a problem on Saint Augustine when 88 00:05:14.279 --> 00:05:18.000 the temperatures are mildly warm, not one hundred degrees and 89 00:05:18.399 --> 00:05:22.240 blazing dry. But when they're warm, they've heated up for summer, 90 00:05:22.399 --> 00:05:27.480 the beginning of summer which we're in now, and the 91 00:05:27.839 --> 00:05:32.120 humidity and surface. More importantly, the surface moisture on the 92 00:05:32.160 --> 00:05:35.040 grass blades is high. So if it rains a lot, 93 00:05:35.079 --> 00:05:36.959 which it did, we got seven inches a couple of 94 00:05:37.000 --> 00:05:39.199 weeks ago and saw a little bit of gray leaf 95 00:05:39.199 --> 00:05:42.639 spot showing up. If you water too often, I always 96 00:05:42.680 --> 00:05:46.040 tell you water deeply and infrequently. It's simple. How do 97 00:05:46.079 --> 00:05:50.639 you water your lawn? Two words, deeply, infrequently. When you water, 98 00:05:50.720 --> 00:05:53.319 give it a good soaking, then let it dry out 99 00:05:53.360 --> 00:05:55.399 and keep those grass blades as dry as you can 100 00:05:55.480 --> 00:05:57.759 for as long as you can. You can't control rain, 101 00:05:57.839 --> 00:06:01.959 but you can't control your irrigation. And when it stays wet, 102 00:06:01.959 --> 00:06:05.439 a lot and it's warm, gray leaf spots going to attack. 103 00:06:05.480 --> 00:06:07.639 And if you look at my schedule for plant problems, 104 00:06:07.680 --> 00:06:10.959 for lawn problems rather a gray leaf spots season is 105 00:06:11.040 --> 00:06:14.759 listed in there when it could occur. Sometimes you have 106 00:06:14.839 --> 00:06:16.839 a little it's not worth treating. But when you need 107 00:06:16.879 --> 00:06:22.000 to treat, Eagle turf Fungicide from Nitrofoss works. It is 108 00:06:22.040 --> 00:06:25.319 a systemic It moves into the plant and it sticks around, 109 00:06:25.360 --> 00:06:27.800 and it gives you an extended period of control as 110 00:06:27.839 --> 00:06:29.680 a result of that doesn't just wash off with the 111 00:06:29.720 --> 00:06:34.240 next train. So Eagle Turf Fungicide by Nitrofoss is a 112 00:06:34.279 --> 00:06:38.439 product that we would recommend for take the not take 113 00:06:38.480 --> 00:06:41.759 off the gray leaf spot. That's what I'm talking about 114 00:06:41.839 --> 00:06:47.959 right now. Anyway, it's easy to do, easy to do. Hey, 115 00:06:49.199 --> 00:06:51.759 when it comes to the lawns, I just I'll talk 116 00:06:51.800 --> 00:06:54.079 about this a little bit more later. I just have 117 00:06:54.240 --> 00:06:57.959 been working on a couple of lawns this season that 118 00:06:58.040 --> 00:07:00.720 we're trying to get in better order. And I'm going 119 00:07:00.759 --> 00:07:02.600 to talk a little bit about what do you do 120 00:07:02.639 --> 00:07:04.759 when you want to when you want or need to 121 00:07:04.959 --> 00:07:07.319 maybe don't want to, but need to replace a lawn. 122 00:07:07.639 --> 00:07:10.439 And there's some simple steps for doing that. Now, for 123 00:07:10.480 --> 00:07:13.240 those of you who already have a line, you need 124 00:07:13.319 --> 00:07:16.720 to think about getting that lawn in its top shape 125 00:07:16.720 --> 00:07:19.160 for summer. And the way we do that is by 126 00:07:19.199 --> 00:07:23.199 applying something that's gonna gradually be released over time. You 127 00:07:23.319 --> 00:07:26.920 don't want fast flushes of growth. Don't just dump a 128 00:07:26.920 --> 00:07:29.800 bunch of high nitrogen fertilizer at one time on your lawn. 129 00:07:30.360 --> 00:07:34.519 Get you some Nitrofoss Superturf. That's the silver bag Nitrofas 130 00:07:34.560 --> 00:07:37.480 Superturf nineteen four to ten. Put it down and it's 131 00:07:37.480 --> 00:07:40.800 going to be sixteen weeks of gradual feeding of your lawn. 132 00:07:40.920 --> 00:07:42.439 That's the way you want to do it. You're gonna 133 00:07:42.439 --> 00:07:44.959 find nitro Fass Superturf at places like Plants and things 134 00:07:45.000 --> 00:07:49.519 up in Brenham, Fisher's Hardware on Alexander down in Baytown, 135 00:07:49.680 --> 00:07:53.319 and Lake Hardware Clute on Dixie Drive as well. I'm 136 00:07:53.360 --> 00:07:55.199 gonna take a little break right now and we'll come 137 00:07:55.240 --> 00:07:57.319 back with your calls if you'd like to be first up. 138 00:07:57.399 --> 00:08:00.800 Seven one three two point two KTRH. I woke up 139 00:08:00.800 --> 00:08:03.560 into this week late in the week and I could 140 00:08:03.600 --> 00:08:08.160 not even whisper without coffee. I thought, oh boy, we 141 00:08:08.279 --> 00:08:09.959 got this thing called a radio show. To do I 142 00:08:09.959 --> 00:08:11.439 have you have to have a sick day? Knock on? 143 00:08:11.519 --> 00:08:14.319 What since I started doing Guarden Line, where I just 144 00:08:14.560 --> 00:08:19.439 literally couldn't do the show? Uh, And anyway, I thought, oh, 145 00:08:19.600 --> 00:08:21.160 this may be one of them. I may have my 146 00:08:21.240 --> 00:08:25.519 first one. But thanks to a good family doctor and 147 00:08:25.560 --> 00:08:30.920 some wonderful medications, I'm here. So we'll try. We'll see 148 00:08:30.920 --> 00:08:33.639 how coherent I can be today. But at least I 149 00:08:33.639 --> 00:08:37.080 got my voice back where we can talk. And by 150 00:08:37.080 --> 00:08:38.960 the way, if you like the talk seven one three 151 00:08:39.360 --> 00:08:41.960 two one two k t r H seven to one 152 00:08:42.039 --> 00:08:45.960 three two one two k t r H. If you've 153 00:08:46.000 --> 00:08:48.879 been down to in Chenny Gardens lately, you know I 154 00:08:49.159 --> 00:08:51.519 one of my favorite things that I like to do 155 00:08:52.159 --> 00:08:55.440 is to get out there and visit garden centers. And 156 00:08:55.480 --> 00:08:58.919 I do a lot. And it's not just because I 157 00:08:59.000 --> 00:09:01.519 do Garden Line or you know, for years it's County 158 00:09:01.600 --> 00:09:06.320 Agrolife Extension Horticulture with the texting and uh agrolife extension. 159 00:09:06.919 --> 00:09:07.159 Uh. 160 00:09:07.240 --> 00:09:09.159 But I do it because I love to I just 161 00:09:09.279 --> 00:09:10.879 I love to get out and when I go to 162 00:09:10.919 --> 00:09:13.600 a garden center, I could easily lose an hour even 163 00:09:13.600 --> 00:09:16.519 if I've been to it many times before, just going 164 00:09:16.559 --> 00:09:19.559 around looking at plants, reading the tag seeing what's new. 165 00:09:19.759 --> 00:09:21.759 You know, there's this new variety of this or that 166 00:09:21.879 --> 00:09:26.240 species always coming on the market. Uh. So it makes 167 00:09:26.279 --> 00:09:29.480 it really makes it fun, I think, and I encourage 168 00:09:29.480 --> 00:09:35.440 you to be that kind of a garden uh business visitor. 169 00:09:35.639 --> 00:09:40.799 I just not just nurseries, but also garden supplies and 170 00:09:40.840 --> 00:09:45.440 tools suppliers. And I learned something every time. Absolutely do. 171 00:09:46.240 --> 00:09:48.879 You got to You have to have a great level 172 00:09:48.919 --> 00:09:52.600 of disinterest to not continually be learning as a gardener. 173 00:09:52.679 --> 00:09:56.519 And I mean that because when it comes to gardening, uh, 174 00:09:56.559 --> 00:10:00.440 there's always something new there just always is. And Channa 175 00:10:00.519 --> 00:10:04.200 Gardens is like a prime example of that. Every time 176 00:10:04.240 --> 00:10:07.080 I go into a Channa Gardens there are plants that 177 00:10:07.159 --> 00:10:09.559 I have not seen before because the industry is out 178 00:10:09.600 --> 00:10:12.519 there churning them out left and right. And by the way, 179 00:10:12.960 --> 00:10:17.639 the taxonomists are out there changing the name left and 180 00:10:17.759 --> 00:10:24.080 right too much to my chagrin. But anyway, the Chenna 181 00:10:24.639 --> 00:10:29.519 Gardens will give you the options that you have, by 182 00:10:29.559 --> 00:10:33.039 the way, by really nice, friendly staff that know what 183 00:10:33.080 --> 00:10:35.799 they're talking about. And I don't care what you're interested in. 184 00:10:35.799 --> 00:10:39.120 Maybe some new types of hydranges, maybe you're into hanging baskets. 185 00:10:39.159 --> 00:10:41.639 You know, I've been kind of pushing on you this year, 186 00:10:41.759 --> 00:10:44.080 saying you got to get out and do some containers. 187 00:10:44.600 --> 00:10:47.639 You are not going to believe the selection of containers. 188 00:10:48.000 --> 00:10:51.399 Every kind of plain old you know, terra cotta, but 189 00:10:51.600 --> 00:10:55.000 quality terracotta, not the cheap junk that you buy at 190 00:10:55.039 --> 00:10:59.960 some places. Quality terracotta. Talavera, the beautiful paint of Talavera, 191 00:11:00.799 --> 00:11:03.480 and all the inspiration you need. Go by and look 192 00:11:03.519 --> 00:11:05.559 at some of the submarines put together there. Look at 193 00:11:05.559 --> 00:11:08.600 the combo containers that she's built. I'm talking about everything 194 00:11:08.639 --> 00:11:12.840 from hanging baskets to upright containers, to things that are 195 00:11:13.000 --> 00:11:16.919 just unusual shapes and forms, almost like the container itself 196 00:11:17.000 --> 00:11:20.120 is another figurine in the garden. They've got all of that. 197 00:11:20.559 --> 00:11:25.720 And when it comes to color for summer, Boogainvilias got 198 00:11:25.759 --> 00:11:27.559 a bunch of desert rows in too. By the way, 199 00:11:27.600 --> 00:11:30.200 those are gorgeous. If you've never tried desert rows, that 200 00:11:30.240 --> 00:11:33.240 would be a new plant to take on. One time 201 00:11:33.320 --> 00:11:38.039 years ago, a wise man, a doctor Georgia A. Mckeachen, 202 00:11:38.559 --> 00:11:41.120 who was a pomology professor of mine at tex A 203 00:11:41.120 --> 00:11:43.919 and m He said, every year, you pick one plant 204 00:11:44.000 --> 00:11:46.279 and you learn all you can about it for the 205 00:11:46.320 --> 00:11:48.919 whole year. It's not that you only learn about one planet. 206 00:11:48.919 --> 00:11:51.639 It's just like and for me, I've done that. You know, 207 00:11:51.879 --> 00:11:55.519 I'll spend a whole year on a particular kind of plant, 208 00:11:55.639 --> 00:11:58.159 just learning and learning and learning all I can about 209 00:11:58.159 --> 00:11:59.919 that plant, and then the next year try something else. 210 00:12:00.039 --> 00:12:02.000 It doesn't have to be twelve months, but you get 211 00:12:02.000 --> 00:12:05.480 the idea and you just you just build, you build 212 00:12:05.480 --> 00:12:08.240 out your knowledge. Maybe you're really into African violets, or 213 00:12:08.279 --> 00:12:10.559 maybe you don't even know how to spell African violet, 214 00:12:11.480 --> 00:12:14.480 we'll start messing around. Learn about them, get one, play 215 00:12:14.519 --> 00:12:16.720 with it, try to propagate it. Things like that makes 216 00:12:16.759 --> 00:12:19.320 gardening really fun. Well in Chenni Garden's got you covered 217 00:12:19.320 --> 00:12:21.759 on all that. They're on the FM. They're on FM 218 00:12:21.840 --> 00:12:24.519 three point fifty nine on the Katie fullsher side of Richmond. 219 00:12:24.559 --> 00:12:27.600 You can go to in Jennigardens Richmond dot com and 220 00:12:27.639 --> 00:12:29.480 find out more. But the main thing is just go 221 00:12:29.639 --> 00:12:32.360 and today would be an outstanding day to get out 222 00:12:32.639 --> 00:12:35.720 and pay them a visit. Let's head out now to Spring, 223 00:12:35.799 --> 00:12:38.279 Texas and we're going to visit with CR this morning. 224 00:12:38.639 --> 00:12:40.559 Hello CR, Welcome to garden Line. 225 00:12:41.399 --> 00:12:42.919 Yeah, suir, hey, good morning. 226 00:12:44.440 --> 00:12:44.720 Morning. 227 00:12:46.039 --> 00:12:49.000 All right, So I have a question, So what do 228 00:12:49.120 --> 00:12:56.720 you recommend as far as getting rid of the armadillas 229 00:12:56.720 --> 00:12:59.679 that are tearing up your lawn that are coming in 230 00:12:59.720 --> 00:13:04.320 and your flower beds. How do you get rid of 231 00:13:04.360 --> 00:13:05.919 the armadillos. 232 00:13:06.960 --> 00:13:10.720 There? There's there's not simple ways to do it. They're 233 00:13:10.759 --> 00:13:15.480 there because there's soft soil with earthworms or grubs or 234 00:13:15.559 --> 00:13:19.080 other things they're interested in eating. That's what they like, 235 00:13:19.240 --> 00:13:22.080 is those little soft bodied critters like that in the soil. 236 00:13:22.159 --> 00:13:26.519 That's why they root around looking for them. So what 237 00:13:27.159 --> 00:13:29.679 sometimes people say, well, you know, kill the grubs and 238 00:13:30.039 --> 00:13:32.080 they won't have anything to be Well, actually they will 239 00:13:32.080 --> 00:13:34.480 still they'll be earthwork. If you're watering and it's moist, 240 00:13:34.559 --> 00:13:36.559 you're gonna have earthworms and other things for them to 241 00:13:36.600 --> 00:13:39.240 look for. Plus it's easier to root their little nose 242 00:13:39.360 --> 00:13:44.639 through soft dirt than hard concrete clay. Uh. So that 243 00:13:44.639 --> 00:13:48.960 that leaves us CR with with capturing in a live 244 00:13:49.039 --> 00:13:53.039 trap and taking them somewhere else, relocating them to another location. 245 00:13:54.279 --> 00:13:58.240 The the those live traps can be baited. 246 00:13:58.879 --> 00:13:59.039 Uh. 247 00:13:59.080 --> 00:14:03.000 There's a public if you go to the Texas Wildlife 248 00:14:03.039 --> 00:14:07.200 Damage Management Service publications they're at I can tell you 249 00:14:07.200 --> 00:14:09.120 how to get to them in just a moment. But 250 00:14:09.159 --> 00:14:11.399 there's one on Armadilla's and it shows you how to 251 00:14:11.399 --> 00:14:13.799 set up a live trap. And basically what you've got 252 00:14:13.919 --> 00:14:17.320 is two boards to funnel the armadilla into the trap. 253 00:14:17.679 --> 00:14:22.279 They're bumbling little creatures, and so usually they go alongside 254 00:14:22.519 --> 00:14:24.919 the house or along a fence or something. You know, 255 00:14:24.960 --> 00:14:27.840 they tend to kind of not just wander aimlessly all 256 00:14:27.879 --> 00:14:29.840 through the yard, but they tend to have a way 257 00:14:29.879 --> 00:14:32.320 they travel, and you can sort of set up that 258 00:14:32.559 --> 00:14:36.120 those boards coming like a v outside out of that 259 00:14:36.200 --> 00:14:40.240 trap and lead them in. If you will take elbow 260 00:14:40.320 --> 00:14:44.759 macaroni like mac and cheese macaroni and just boil the 261 00:14:44.799 --> 00:14:48.159 macaroni and beef bull yon. It's like you've created some 262 00:14:48.200 --> 00:14:51.240 little grub like creatures by doing that, and you can 263 00:14:51.320 --> 00:14:53.600 drop one here, drop one there. Don't get them too 264 00:14:53.600 --> 00:14:55.840 full before they get in the trap, but you can 265 00:14:55.919 --> 00:14:58.919 lead them right into the live trap that way, and 266 00:14:58.919 --> 00:15:01.799 it makes it a little easier to catch them. 267 00:15:03.080 --> 00:15:03.960 That's a good idea. 268 00:15:04.120 --> 00:15:10.120 Okay, if you go to a website, yeah, the website 269 00:15:10.200 --> 00:15:11.840 is Agrolife. 270 00:15:11.320 --> 00:15:16.440 Learn A g R I L I F E learned 271 00:15:16.799 --> 00:15:19.679 dot t A m U dot d U t A 272 00:15:19.840 --> 00:15:21.840 m U dot e d U is like Texas A 273 00:15:21.879 --> 00:15:24.960 and M university dot e d U, like all university 274 00:15:24.960 --> 00:15:26.639 websites in dot ed U. 275 00:15:27.360 --> 00:15:31.000 Okay, okay, all right, that was very helpful. 276 00:15:31.039 --> 00:15:32.120 I appreciate it. Thank you. 277 00:15:33.559 --> 00:15:38.639 Okay, good luck with that one. Appreciate your appreciate your call. 278 00:15:41.120 --> 00:15:46.320 Excuse me, alrighty uh yeah. Interesting thing what to do 279 00:15:46.399 --> 00:15:49.120 with armadillas. As a kid, we used to chase them 280 00:15:49.159 --> 00:15:50.960 and try to catch them. You could outrun them, but 281 00:15:50.960 --> 00:15:52.639 about the time you tried to stoop down and then 282 00:15:52.679 --> 00:15:55.480 they they get away from you again. And if you 283 00:15:55.480 --> 00:15:59.000 ever grab one by the tail, good luck. They're not light. 284 00:15:59.440 --> 00:16:02.399 Their tail is kind of tapered, so you're trying to 285 00:16:02.399 --> 00:16:04.240 hold onto it and it's slipping out of your hands. 286 00:16:04.919 --> 00:16:06.039 I don't know what we were going to do with 287 00:16:06.080 --> 00:16:07.840 them when we caught them, but we caught them, and 288 00:16:07.879 --> 00:16:10.919 then we kind of realized we didn't have anything to 289 00:16:10.960 --> 00:16:14.559 do with them, so let them go catch and release. 290 00:16:16.440 --> 00:16:19.360 You know, we are in nesting season still for many 291 00:16:19.399 --> 00:16:24.600 of our songbirds. I've got I have some swallows, barn swallows, 292 00:16:24.639 --> 00:16:27.159 that are nesting underneath our front porch, and we let 293 00:16:27.159 --> 00:16:29.200 them do that. We just love them. We love the 294 00:16:29.240 --> 00:16:32.159 songs that they little chirping sounds that they make there. 295 00:16:32.279 --> 00:16:34.480 I don't know if song is a good way to 296 00:16:34.519 --> 00:16:38.679 describe it, but we like them. And when the babies 297 00:16:38.919 --> 00:16:41.000 get old enough, they sit up on the edge of 298 00:16:41.000 --> 00:16:43.639 the nest and there's not likely have little wide fat 299 00:16:43.919 --> 00:16:47.720 smiles and you can look out the window and see them. 300 00:16:48.080 --> 00:16:51.000 But anyway, this is the time when a lot of 301 00:16:51.000 --> 00:16:53.840 birds are nesting, and the folks at wild Birds Unlimited 302 00:16:54.080 --> 00:16:57.759 have a perfect blend of seeds to provide all kinds 303 00:16:57.799 --> 00:16:59.960 of birds, many many kinds of birds what they need 304 00:17:00.159 --> 00:17:02.759 this Season's called Nesting Super Blend. You're only going to 305 00:17:02.799 --> 00:17:05.440 get it at Wildbird's Unlimited. Now. You can buy it 306 00:17:05.440 --> 00:17:07.519 in loose bags to put in any kind of feeder 307 00:17:07.519 --> 00:17:11.359 you got, and it also comes in seed cylinders that 308 00:17:11.400 --> 00:17:13.079 are compressed, And so if you're going to go on 309 00:17:13.079 --> 00:17:15.599 a little trup, a seed cylinder is a nice way 310 00:17:15.640 --> 00:17:17.359 to go because the birds kind of have to peck 311 00:17:17.400 --> 00:17:19.079 at it to get it out of there. It slows 312 00:17:19.119 --> 00:17:20.880 them down just a little bit. I mean, they'll clean 313 00:17:21.200 --> 00:17:23.599 I've got boy now that birds have found my feeders, 314 00:17:24.119 --> 00:17:27.279 they just are like lined up and waiting and so 315 00:17:28.079 --> 00:17:31.440 they will clean me out pretty quick here. So anyway, 316 00:17:31.440 --> 00:17:34.200 I like the seed cylinders too. Now there are six 317 00:17:34.279 --> 00:17:38.880 Wildbirds Stores Wilbirds Unlimited stores here in the greater Houston area. 318 00:17:39.480 --> 00:17:42.440 So you can find Wildbirds Unlimited in Kingwood.

Let's head out now to 327 00:18:13.799 --> 00:18:17.119 a task casita and we're going to talk to Jim. Hey, Jim, good. 328 00:18:16.880 --> 00:18:20.440 Morning, Good morning, sir, thank you so much for taking 329 00:18:20.599 --> 00:18:20.920 a call. 330 00:18:21.640 --> 00:18:21.839 UH. 331 00:18:22.119 --> 00:18:26.000 Today's aeration day, going to errate the yards, all right, 332 00:18:26.319 --> 00:18:28.160 and we want we want to get with some of 333 00:18:28.200 --> 00:18:30.799 those weeds that are there facts a lot of beads 334 00:18:31.720 --> 00:18:34.079 and we want to feed the grass and what combination 335 00:18:34.559 --> 00:18:35.759 should we use today? 336 00:18:37.960 --> 00:18:40.160 All right? So are you going to do compost top 337 00:18:40.240 --> 00:18:42.200 dressing also or just aerration. 338 00:18:45.319 --> 00:18:47.680 Uh, just aerration. 339 00:18:49.359 --> 00:18:52.279 Okay, So you want to air rate and then you 340 00:18:52.319 --> 00:18:57.319 want to put down a barricade. Barricade from Nitrofoss is 341 00:18:57.359 --> 00:18:59.960 a weed prevention. Now have if you have you used 342 00:19:00.039 --> 00:19:03.480 barricade this spring already you. 343 00:19:03.480 --> 00:19:06.920 Know haven't used it, but okay I mentioned it last 344 00:19:07.000 --> 00:19:09.240 week also and just wondering. 345 00:19:09.359 --> 00:19:12.359 Yeah, yeah, well I just asked because you don't want 346 00:19:12.359 --> 00:19:15.279 to overdo anything, including barricade. So if you haven't used 347 00:19:15.279 --> 00:19:18.000 it yet, go ahead and put down barricade according to 348 00:19:18.039 --> 00:19:20.920 the label. Don't overdo it. The label amount is the 349 00:19:21.000 --> 00:19:23.559 right amount. You go underdo it or overdo it and 350 00:19:23.559 --> 00:19:26.519 you have problems, get as even of a spread as 351 00:19:26.559 --> 00:19:28.799 you can and then water it in with about a 352 00:19:28.839 --> 00:19:32.559 half inch of water. And this is after you've erated. Okay, 353 00:19:33.000 --> 00:19:35.559 you can put the barricade down. And if you haven't 354 00:19:35.599 --> 00:19:41.119 fertilized this year, you could also fertilize this year. And 355 00:19:41.200 --> 00:19:45.160 so if you wanted, you know, something that's going to 356 00:19:45.240 --> 00:19:47.680 be slower released to carry you through summer, that would 357 00:19:47.680 --> 00:19:50.559 be a good choice. Right now, I talk about the 358 00:19:51.720 --> 00:19:55.319 Nitrofoss superturf in the soilber bag is an excellent product 359 00:19:55.400 --> 00:19:58.880 for that. The folks at Nelson have a product that's 360 00:19:58.920 --> 00:20:02.680 called Bruce's Brew, and it is a combo. It gives 361 00:20:02.680 --> 00:20:04.640 you some fast release, so you can get a good 362 00:20:04.720 --> 00:20:08.440 quick boost, but then it spreads out where you're gonna get, 363 00:20:08.920 --> 00:20:12.119 you know, several months of feeding out of it over 364 00:20:12.200 --> 00:20:15.079 time too, so that's a good option as well. They're 365 00:20:15.119 --> 00:20:19.839 both on my schedule. And then water with about a 366 00:20:19.880 --> 00:20:22.799 half inch of water just to move the barricade into 367 00:20:22.799 --> 00:20:25.640 the soil surface and the fertilizer dissolve it and get 368 00:20:25.640 --> 00:20:27.960 it going down into into the soil a little bit, 369 00:20:28.519 --> 00:20:29.279 start to get it. 370 00:20:29.480 --> 00:20:32.279 Which can we get to Nelson brew? 371 00:20:34.640 --> 00:20:37.400 The Nelson Bruces Brew is widely available. I don't have 372 00:20:37.720 --> 00:20:39.839 right in front of me a list of everybody that 373 00:20:39.880 --> 00:20:41.559 carries it, but I bet I could pull one up 374 00:20:41.559 --> 00:20:43.799 here if I If I try, I'll see if I 375 00:20:43.799 --> 00:20:46.599 can get one up before we're done here. But anyway, 376 00:20:46.680 --> 00:20:50.079 there it's pretty widely available as well. Let's see you're 377 00:20:50.119 --> 00:20:54.000 calling from out at the task Asida. You might try. 378 00:20:54.319 --> 00:20:58.240 You've got some ACE hardware stores around you. I would 379 00:20:58.480 --> 00:21:03.039 I would probably give that one a try, and see 380 00:21:03.160 --> 00:21:07.599 ACE usually carries a pretty wide variety of things, and 381 00:21:07.720 --> 00:21:11.079 unfortunately it's gonna take me a while to find. I 382 00:21:11.200 --> 00:21:13.039 tell you what I'll do. We're gonna take a break 383 00:21:13.039 --> 00:21:15.319 here in a little bit and I will find some 384 00:21:16.160 --> 00:21:19.359 sources of Nelson plant food in the task Asta area. 385 00:21:19.359 --> 00:21:20.759 And I'll just say I'm on the air for you 386 00:21:20.880 --> 00:21:22.039 when we come back. How's that? 387 00:21:23.359 --> 00:21:24.000 Thank you, sir? 388 00:21:25.599 --> 00:21:29.240 Alrighty good? Well, you take care and I do appreciate 389 00:21:29.279 --> 00:21:33.519 your call. All right, We will be back in just 390 00:21:33.559 --> 00:21:36.440 a moment with that. Yeah, Nelson Bruce's Brew is an 391 00:21:36.480 --> 00:21:40.440 outstanding product. That combo of immediate release and slow release 392 00:21:41.440 --> 00:21:45.000 is good. It's got carbon nitrogen, carbon based nitrogen sources 393 00:21:45.039 --> 00:21:48.079 that also help beat microbes that are there present in 394 00:21:48.119 --> 00:21:50.079 the soil as well. It was time for me to 395 00:21:50.119 --> 00:21:52.599 take a break. We'll be back with your calls.

Now 398 00:21:58.920 --> 00:22:01.000 would be a good time to give us a call. 399 00:22:01.640 --> 00:22:06.160 All right, folks, welcome back to garden Lines. In answer 400 00:22:06.279 --> 00:22:10.240 to Jim's call, where to find Nelson plant food products 401 00:22:10.279 --> 00:22:14.240 like Russus Brew out in that area. Ace Hardware a 402 00:22:14.359 --> 00:22:18.279 task Asita on timber forest in Humble, Texas. Jim Ace 403 00:22:18.319 --> 00:22:21.559 Hardware a task Asita on timber Forest and Humble. They 404 00:22:21.599 --> 00:22:25.519 carry according to their website, Nelson's website, they carry the 405 00:22:26.200 --> 00:22:29.440 some of the Nelson plant food products. So that hopefully 406 00:22:29.480 --> 00:22:31.480 gets you off to a good start. Let's see here, 407 00:22:31.480 --> 00:22:33.559 We're going to go out to Brunham now and talk 408 00:22:33.599 --> 00:22:38.480 to Rodney. Hello Rodney, and welcome to garden Line. Thanks Jip. 409 00:22:39.000 --> 00:22:44.039 I'm having a problem with some first year guardena's. They 410 00:22:44.160 --> 00:22:47.839 bloom and the yellow the leaves. 411 00:22:47.440 --> 00:22:48.559 Are turning yellow. 412 00:22:49.319 --> 00:22:50.759 I have fed. 413 00:22:52.319 --> 00:22:59.480 Acid loving plant food, you know, water regularly. I just 414 00:23:00.319 --> 00:23:04.160 it just seems like from the get go the leaves 415 00:23:04.160 --> 00:23:05.319 started turning yellowing. 416 00:23:07.519 --> 00:23:09.920 Rodney, is it the leaves that at the ends of 417 00:23:09.960 --> 00:23:12.000 all the shoots that are yellowing or is it the 418 00:23:12.079 --> 00:23:15.200 leaves that are older further back the shoot that are yellowing? 419 00:23:15.240 --> 00:23:20.440 On you, I think it's it's it looks like out 420 00:23:20.480 --> 00:23:21.319 toward the ends. 421 00:23:22.880 --> 00:23:26.599 Okay, Well, that is that is typical of iron deficiency. 422 00:23:27.000 --> 00:23:29.799 Iron deficiency can be caused by a lack of iron 423 00:23:29.839 --> 00:23:33.400 in the soil, but it can also because by high 424 00:23:33.400 --> 00:23:37.519 phos lack of iron in the soil. But you may 425 00:23:37.559 --> 00:23:40.599 have enough iron in the soil, but it's tied up 426 00:23:40.759 --> 00:23:44.680 because either the pH is high or the phosphorus is high. 427 00:23:44.720 --> 00:23:48.400 That's the middle number phosphorus. Now you mentioned you're using 428 00:23:48.480 --> 00:23:52.680 acid living fertilizer or as fertilizers for acid living plants. 429 00:23:52.680 --> 00:23:55.880 That's a good thing. You may need to use a 430 00:23:56.119 --> 00:24:01.319 keylated form of iron. Keylate is c A E L 431 00:24:01.480 --> 00:24:05.359 A t E. It's like it's it's spelled like chi late, 432 00:24:05.519 --> 00:24:09.039 but it's pronounced key late. It is an iron that 433 00:24:09.119 --> 00:24:11.920 has a little bodyguard around it that keeps the soul 434 00:24:12.000 --> 00:24:14.519 from tying it up so fast. I would try that 435 00:24:14.880 --> 00:24:17.680 and see if you see some benefits a little quick 436 00:24:17.680 --> 00:24:21.640 green up from that. Other longer term would be maybe 437 00:24:22.119 --> 00:24:26.000 continuing to use your acid loving plant fertilizers, but maybe 438 00:24:26.039 --> 00:24:28.200 even a little bit of sulfur to lower the pH 439 00:24:28.319 --> 00:24:30.319 of the soil. Just want to be real careful with that. 440 00:24:30.960 --> 00:24:32.640 If you wanted to send me a picture so I 441 00:24:32.640 --> 00:24:35.279 could look at it and make sure that what I'm 442 00:24:35.319 --> 00:24:38.039 picturing is what you're seeing, I'd be happy to take 443 00:24:38.039 --> 00:24:41.359 a look at it too. Where will the time that 444 00:24:41.680 --> 00:24:46.079 the key lated, You're going to find it all over 445 00:24:46.119 --> 00:24:50.039 the place. Any place that's you know, really into gardening, 446 00:24:50.319 --> 00:24:56.640 the independent garden centers, your ace hardware stores. A. Yeah, 447 00:24:56.680 --> 00:24:59.759 you're out there in Brenhams, so you know you're gonna 448 00:24:59.759 --> 00:25:02.000 find it, you know, if you if you can find 449 00:25:02.000 --> 00:25:05.119 a nice hearder, they probably have a keylated form out there. 450 00:25:05.319 --> 00:25:10.319 Plants and things on a Highway three sixty five might 451 00:25:10.440 --> 00:25:12.400 have it. I've been by there to check for that. 452 00:25:12.960 --> 00:25:14.680 But they carry a lot of things out there, and 453 00:25:14.720 --> 00:25:17.079 I know they carre some of our sponsor products at 454 00:25:17.119 --> 00:25:21.279 plant Plants and things as well by skip. I appreciate it, 455 00:25:22.680 --> 00:25:24.720 all right, sir, you take care. Thanks for the call. 456 00:25:26.559 --> 00:25:33.279 That is the case RCW Nurseries RCW Nursery is it's 457 00:25:33.480 --> 00:25:35.759 I love that garden center. I just first of all, 458 00:25:35.759 --> 00:25:38.599 I like the convenience of it. It's it's local. It's 459 00:25:38.759 --> 00:25:42.279 right where Tomo Barkway two forty nine comes into a eight, 460 00:25:42.680 --> 00:25:45.480 so it's really easy to get to. When you go 461 00:25:45.559 --> 00:25:48.599 to RCW, you're going to find everything that you're looking for. 462 00:25:49.039 --> 00:25:53.240 And they've got a Memorial Day sale that begins, well 463 00:25:53.279 --> 00:25:58.039 it has begun, and ten percent off all the krpe 464 00:25:58.079 --> 00:26:00.920 myrtles and roses ten percent off. So now they're a 465 00:26:00.920 --> 00:26:03.160 great time and it's still time. Get them in the ground, 466 00:26:03.160 --> 00:26:05.720 get them watered in, just help them along a little 467 00:26:05.720 --> 00:26:08.160 bit as the weather worms up. They'll be fine. Twenty 468 00:26:08.240 --> 00:26:11.400 percent off of their metal yard art, and that includes 469 00:26:11.440 --> 00:26:15.480 those metal arbors, metal benches, trellises to grow things on. 470 00:26:15.640 --> 00:26:18.480 Those are gorgeous. And they have other kinds of little 471 00:26:18.519 --> 00:26:21.319 metal yard art, you know, hangs on the walls, decorative. 472 00:26:21.440 --> 00:26:25.359 It's is really beautiful stuff. So stop by RCIW this 473 00:26:25.440 --> 00:26:29.759 weekend and take advantage of some of those Memorial weekend savings. 474 00:26:29.759 --> 00:26:32.519 And boy did they ever have an outstanding selection of 475 00:26:32.559 --> 00:26:34.799 crate myrtles. And remember when you buy a crate myrtle 476 00:26:35.079 --> 00:26:37.400 from Marcy W or wherever you get a crate myrtle, 477 00:26:38.160 --> 00:26:41.440 by the size that you want, don't you know?

But if you've got a spot where 481 00:26:52.480 --> 00:26:55.279 you need a ten foot crpe myrtle, don't put natches 482 00:26:55.279 --> 00:26:58.920 in there.

Armando, 489 00:27:18.079 --> 00:27:22.880 Welcome to garden Line. Good morning, Good morning. 490 00:27:25.359 --> 00:27:30.480 Sent you his photos yesterday showing my Saint Augustine grants 491 00:27:30.559 --> 00:27:34.039 that have put down about three weeks ago, and about 492 00:27:34.240 --> 00:27:38.039 a week ago is started browning in the area and 493 00:27:38.920 --> 00:27:43.359 I keep watering it and I got bad information on 494 00:27:43.400 --> 00:27:46.480 how to fix it because the person didn't know what 495 00:27:46.519 --> 00:27:49.079 he was talking about. But anyway, I sent you those 496 00:27:49.119 --> 00:27:50.720 photos hoping you could help me out there. 497 00:27:53.640 --> 00:27:55.519 I'm looking for it. There we go. I think I 498 00:27:55.559 --> 00:27:58.279 found you, all right, Oh, yes, I see I remember 499 00:27:58.319 --> 00:28:01.960 looking at those. Yeah. It's a little hard to tell 500 00:28:02.119 --> 00:28:04.920 specifically what's going on. First of all, what's the deal 501 00:28:04.960 --> 00:28:07.759 with that green line? Is that a fertilizer line alongside 502 00:28:07.799 --> 00:28:08.720 the driveway. 503 00:28:14.359 --> 00:28:14.680 Picture? 504 00:28:14.880 --> 00:28:16.599 Or is that green weeds? 505 00:28:17.759 --> 00:28:18.880 Probably weeds? 506 00:28:20.000 --> 00:28:24.640 Okay, So that grass was was real new, as you indicated, 507 00:28:25.119 --> 00:28:31.000 and grass during the first day, two week to two 508 00:28:31.039 --> 00:28:35.200 weeks has got to be kept consistently moist. And that's 509 00:28:35.240 --> 00:28:37.359 not just a once a day. It's because the grass 510 00:28:37.359 --> 00:28:40.559 has very little soil at all, and it's sitting now 511 00:28:40.599 --> 00:28:43.640 on top of your soil. And if it set on, 512 00:28:44.000 --> 00:28:46.759 let's say you had dead weeds or dead grass underneath it, 513 00:28:46.960 --> 00:28:50.559 sometimes the roots can't get contact with the soil underneath, 514 00:28:51.039 --> 00:28:54.720 and it's it's difficult for them to get rooted in well, 515 00:28:55.359 --> 00:28:59.839 or at least quickly. I would recommend watering twice a day, 516 00:28:59.880 --> 00:29:02.160 And it looks to me like it could have been 517 00:29:02.720 --> 00:29:05.599 that before the grass could get roots down, it went 518 00:29:05.640 --> 00:29:08.759 through a dry period. And sometimes that's when it's sitting 519 00:29:08.839 --> 00:29:11.319 at wherever you bought the grass, you know, before you 520 00:29:11.400 --> 00:29:14.480 picked it up, it was already going in distress. Sometimes 521 00:29:14.519 --> 00:29:16.440 it's when you get at home and the process of 522 00:29:16.440 --> 00:29:20.279 getting it planted. But last time I planted grass, I 523 00:29:20.839 --> 00:29:25.000 even was squirting a little bit of water on the palletts, 524 00:29:25.759 --> 00:29:27.559 just because there were a couple of pallets we hadn't 525 00:29:27.559 --> 00:29:30.079 gotten to yet, and I was keeping them moist. I 526 00:29:30.119 --> 00:29:32.079 put it down, and as soon as I can, I 527 00:29:32.119 --> 00:29:34.480 start putting little water on it just to help it. 528 00:29:35.240 --> 00:29:37.759 And then, like I usually tell people, twice the day 529 00:29:37.799 --> 00:29:40.000 the first week, once a day the second week, just 530 00:29:40.039 --> 00:29:42.559 as a general guy. Depends on the temperature and whether 531 00:29:42.599 --> 00:29:45.440 it's sun or shade, of course, but it looks like that. 532 00:29:45.640 --> 00:29:49.319 It also could be some takeoll root rot involved. But 533 00:29:49.440 --> 00:29:53.119 this happened so fast that I don't think unless it 534 00:29:53.200 --> 00:29:56.000 was already going downhill from take all, I don't think 535 00:29:56.039 --> 00:29:58.440 that happened at your house because of how. 536 00:29:58.319 --> 00:30:02.039 Fast it stopped. The palants that I've been buying have 537 00:30:02.240 --> 00:30:05.240 been real good crash and this is just the one 538 00:30:05.279 --> 00:30:08.240 incident where this happened. And I'm saying, what the hell 539 00:30:08.359 --> 00:30:12.759 you know? Yeah, so yeah. 540 00:30:12.000 --> 00:30:15.039 I don't know. I think because of the speed of it, 541 00:30:15.079 --> 00:30:18.680 I'd chalk it up to somehow that it's it got 542 00:30:18.720 --> 00:30:19.920 a little bit too stressed. 543 00:30:20.920 --> 00:30:21.680 Yeah, because. 544 00:30:24.200 --> 00:30:27.680 Before you know, laying the sod down. But uh and 545 00:30:27.759 --> 00:30:33.279 I thought I had wanted regularly enough, but apparently not. Okay, well, uh. 546 00:30:33.039 --> 00:30:35.519 Well, I'll deal with it without a without a crystal 547 00:30:35.599 --> 00:30:37.720 ball and being able to go back in time and 548 00:30:37.799 --> 00:30:39.799 see the whole process from when they had it at 549 00:30:39.839 --> 00:30:42.039 the garden center. You know, I can't really tell you 550 00:30:42.119 --> 00:30:44.200 for sure, but that's my best guess. 551 00:30:44.920 --> 00:30:48.759 Okay, all right, sir, goodness, thank you for you all. 552 00:30:48.680 --> 00:30:51.720 Right, Hey, thank you so much.

I'm going to take a 576 00:31:58.079 --> 00:32:00.759 little break now and when we come back, Jim and Spring, 577 00:32:00.799 --> 00:32:03.759 you'll be our first up. Welcome back to the garden line. 578 00:32:03.799 --> 00:32:06.839 Good have you with us? Hey, how can we help 579 00:32:06.880 --> 00:32:10.079 you have a better place and more fun gardening? You 580 00:32:10.119 --> 00:32:12.039 tell me, give me a call. Let's let's do that. 581 00:32:12.200 --> 00:32:14.200 Gardening is supposed to be fun and we want you 582 00:32:14.240 --> 00:32:17.400 to have success. That's what we're here about. Part of 583 00:32:17.400 --> 00:32:22.160 that is, for example, in containers, having several things. Number one, 584 00:32:22.200 --> 00:32:26.440 a container that has good drainage holes. Drainage is critical. 585 00:32:26.799 --> 00:32:29.960 Now I've grown things without good drainage tools before, especially 586 00:32:30.039 --> 00:32:34.079 indoor because I totally control the water. But you get outside. 587 00:32:34.119 --> 00:32:38.799 We had some succulence and a container outside underneath and 588 00:32:40.319 --> 00:32:42.519 let's say a porous ceiling, you know, like an arbor 589 00:32:42.559 --> 00:32:45.559 top with some plants on it. And I'm telling you, 590 00:32:45.640 --> 00:32:48.640 we got rain and rain and rain, and they drowned 591 00:32:48.920 --> 00:32:51.720 because they didn't have good internal drainage. The soil held 592 00:32:51.720 --> 00:32:53.880 too much. It wasn't gritty enough. I guess for them, 593 00:32:54.119 --> 00:32:56.759 and there wasn't enough drainage holes. Well, if you got 594 00:32:56.799 --> 00:32:59.839 the container that has good drainage hools, then a soil 595 00:33:00.039 --> 00:33:03.799 that holds water some but drains very well is important. 596 00:33:04.279 --> 00:33:08.039 And jungle land flour and vegetable planting soil distributed by 597 00:33:08.119 --> 00:33:11.240 nitro Foss is a quality product that will do just 598 00:33:11.359 --> 00:33:13.799 those two things above. You can find it at Lakeward 599 00:33:13.880 --> 00:33:17.400 or Hardware in Angleton, which is north of Glasco. Down 600 00:33:17.400 --> 00:33:20.759 there in Angleton you go up to Sagemont m and D. 601 00:33:20.880 --> 00:33:24.279 Beamer on Beamer that area and there's also a Fisher's Hardware. 602 00:33:24.319 --> 00:33:27.519 I'm at Bellevue on FM thirty one eighty where you're 603 00:33:27.519 --> 00:33:32.079 going to find Nitrofoss products. Let's head out to Spring 604 00:33:32.279 --> 00:33:34.960 and we're going to visit with Jim. Hello, Gum, and 605 00:33:35.039 --> 00:33:36.200 welcome to garden line. 606 00:33:37.440 --> 00:33:44.400 How you doing, Yeah, I question, good question. The last 607 00:33:44.400 --> 00:33:48.799 two seasons my yard has really done great. It's been 608 00:33:49.000 --> 00:33:52.799 dark green, nice and big. Is the Saint Augustine grass 609 00:33:53.279 --> 00:33:56.640 and I talk about yard of the month, typical stuff. 610 00:33:56.759 --> 00:34:01.440 And for some reason this year when Breen came around, 611 00:34:02.039 --> 00:34:05.359 half of my yard there's dark green and the other 612 00:34:05.480 --> 00:34:10.559 half is brown spots. And I'm talking about major brown spots, 613 00:34:10.599 --> 00:34:14.239 and it's almost like a disease that's taken over my yard. 614 00:34:14.320 --> 00:34:18.000 I've never experienced this, and it's gotta be going nuts 615 00:34:18.039 --> 00:34:22.760 because I've done everything right. I've fertilized every year and well, 616 00:34:22.760 --> 00:34:25.440 in fact, the last two seasons, I really haven't had 617 00:34:25.440 --> 00:34:29.000 to fertilize because it's been so dark and green and thick, 618 00:34:29.800 --> 00:34:33.880 watered every day. And the only thing I did different 619 00:34:34.800 --> 00:34:37.800 was towards the end of the season last year, I 620 00:34:37.920 --> 00:34:40.719 put down a fertilizer because I had some weeds coming up, 621 00:34:40.760 --> 00:34:43.840 and I didn't use the typical fertilizer like I've always used. 622 00:34:44.880 --> 00:34:48.800 And this year it's just wiped out half of my yard. 623 00:34:48.920 --> 00:34:51.760 It's brown and I'm pulling my hair out. I don't 624 00:34:51.800 --> 00:34:52.559 know what's going on. 625 00:34:55.280 --> 00:34:58.280 Can you describe the brown spots to me in terms 626 00:34:58.280 --> 00:35:01.480 of size and shape and and do they do they 627 00:35:02.280 --> 00:35:05.079 progress or does it just appear and then it you know, 628 00:35:05.400 --> 00:35:06.840 it doesn't spread after that. 629 00:35:08.280 --> 00:35:10.719 Well, it's it's spread it over The next half my 630 00:35:10.840 --> 00:35:13.400 yard is green, half of it is brown. And they're great, 631 00:35:13.599 --> 00:35:17.760 they're great, big spots. I mean, we've raked up the 632 00:35:17.760 --> 00:35:20.079 brown stuff and a bunch of dead weed or dead 633 00:35:20.119 --> 00:35:22.880 grass that we raaked up. We put them in bags, 634 00:35:22.920 --> 00:35:26.400 and now it's just like dirt, a little bit of grass. 635 00:35:27.480 --> 00:35:30.440 I mean, it's okay, it's very very extreme. 636 00:35:30.599 --> 00:35:33.159 I just don't know what I did wrong. 637 00:35:35.239 --> 00:35:42.199 Yeah. Well, the problem in me helping you with it 638 00:35:42.239 --> 00:35:46.360 is I can't see what you're describing. Based on what 639 00:35:46.400 --> 00:35:49.840 you're saying and the extents of it, it sounds to 640 00:35:49.880 --> 00:35:51.960 me like it could be a disease called take all 641 00:35:52.079 --> 00:35:55.840 root rot. I have information on take all root roight 642 00:35:55.960 --> 00:36:00.599 on my publication on lawn Problems, the lawn Schedule that 643 00:36:00.639 --> 00:36:04.159 deals with weeds and diseases and insects. Uh, And so 644 00:36:04.280 --> 00:36:06.960 you you might take a look at that and see. 645 00:36:07.599 --> 00:36:09.559 I think the best way that I can help you, Jim, 646 00:36:09.760 --> 00:36:11.599 is for you to take some pictures. Let me see 647 00:36:11.599 --> 00:36:13.719 the whole on and then get up as close as 648 00:36:13.719 --> 00:36:17.159 you can, make sure it's in good sharp focus. Attach 649 00:36:17.280 --> 00:36:19.239 the photos to the to the email so that I 650 00:36:19.280 --> 00:36:22.480 can zoom in really good and look. Uh. And let 651 00:36:22.519 --> 00:36:24.480 me take a look at those, and I'll give you 652 00:36:24.519 --> 00:36:27.519 a better answer than me just shooting from the hip 653 00:36:27.519 --> 00:36:30.440 here with my best guests being take all root right 654 00:36:30.840 --> 00:36:34.599 as being a likely cause that I can't be certain 655 00:36:34.639 --> 00:36:37.400 about that at all, based based on just kind of 656 00:36:37.440 --> 00:36:39.880 the description of dead spots. 657 00:36:40.480 --> 00:36:42.320 O good, all right, I. 658 00:36:47.280 --> 00:36:49.760 Understand.

Tissues there's 1037 00:57:25.119 --> 00:57:28.679 not a spray for. Cankers you just get the tree 1038 00:57:28.719 --> 00:57:32.079 as vigorous and healthy as you, can and it closes 1039 00:57:32.199 --> 00:57:35.320 over that. Wound as it, grows it just kind of 1040 00:57:36.800 --> 00:57:40.000 just closes it back over.

Find, yeah, sure SO i 1048 00:58:09.760 --> 00:58:14.480 have a red roam that is got cute as little 1049 00:58:14.480 --> 00:58:17.679 baby apples on, it and so it's it's doing. Well 1050 00:58:17.719 --> 00:58:20.639 AND i know you always, recommend you, know for the 1051 00:58:20.639 --> 00:58:24.159 first couple of years to to cut off the, fruit 1052 00:58:24.280 --> 00:58:27.679 SO i will do. That BUT i just have an interesting, 1053 00:58:27.760 --> 00:58:31.199 question and is there like a trunk, size a minimum 1054 00:58:31.239 --> 00:58:34.960 trunk size that you would want to have before you 1055 00:58:35.679 --> 00:58:37.199 let the apples grow. 1056 00:58:42.320 --> 00:58:45.000 For a couple of, years you, Know so it's it's 1057 00:58:45.079 --> 00:58:46.800 kind of a it's kind of let them be on 1058 00:58:46.880 --> 00:58:49.440 the ground for a few, years, uh you. Know AND 1059 00:58:49.519 --> 00:58:52.119 i try to find a happy medium because people want 1060 00:58:52.159 --> 00:58:53.800 to try an. Apple but you, know if in the 1061 00:58:53.880 --> 00:58:55.639 second year you want to leave it to let it 1062 00:58:55.679 --> 00:58:57.199 have an apple or two just so you can have 1063 00:58:57.239 --> 00:59:01.000 something to, taste that's that's. Fine but in, general the 1064 00:59:01.159 --> 00:59:04.440 energy that goes into growing that fruit would be going 1065 00:59:04.519 --> 00:59:08.079 into growing a bigger tree that'll have more fruit the next. 1066 00:59:08.159 --> 00:59:11.159 Year so as you leave, fruit what you're doing is 1067 00:59:11.239 --> 00:59:14.440 limiting in a more than like if you leave one, 1068 00:59:14.480 --> 00:59:17.719 fruit you're losing more than one fruit the next, year 1069 00:59:17.920 --> 00:59:19.880 you know What i'm, saying because you would have gotten 1070 00:59:19.880 --> 00:59:22.840 a lot more branches that could have held several more 1071 00:59:22.880 --> 00:59:25.719 fruit and that's why early in the life of a 1072 00:59:25.760 --> 00:59:28.880 fruit tree we say pull the branches. OFF i mean 1073 00:59:28.960 --> 00:59:30.119 pull the fruit, off not the. 1074 00:59:30.159 --> 00:59:33.880 Branches, okay, yeah, okay thank, you. 1075 00:59:35.320 --> 00:59:38.480 All, Right, beth good luck with. That and just watch 1076 00:59:38.559 --> 00:59:42.000 those spots on the apple.

Yeah so, here here's the. Thing when you put 1211 01:06:40.239 --> 01:06:42.559 barricade down and you watered in with just a little 1212 01:06:42.559 --> 01:06:45.719 bit of water third of an inch maybe half an inch, Maybe, 1213 01:06:46.119 --> 01:06:48.599 uh it goes into the sole surface and it sticks 1214 01:06:48.639 --> 01:06:52.000 there and it it adheres to the soil. Particles and 1215 01:06:52.079 --> 01:06:54.199 if it didn't do, that if it just washed, through 1216 01:06:54.760 --> 01:06:56.599 then it wouldn't be up there to fight the weed. 1217 01:06:56.639 --> 01:07:00.480 Seeds germinating near the. Surface so that's how it. Works. 1218 01:07:00.719 --> 01:07:03.360 Uh now that's WHY i say if you overapply it 1219 01:07:03.400 --> 01:07:06.440 and then gully water it, in gully washer water it. In, 1220 01:07:06.960 --> 01:07:08.880 yeah you can get some down in roots and maybe 1221 01:07:08.880 --> 01:07:11.639 have some, issues but just do it right and you 1222 01:07:11.679 --> 01:07:13.800 should be okay on.

Years so is 1369 01:15:06.199 --> 01:15:11.399 there some BETTER i don't know how to even, ask 1370 01:15:11.479 --> 01:15:18.479 but the generic azalea that would grow in the proper you, 1371 01:15:18.520 --> 01:15:22.640 know acidic. Condition then another. 1372 01:15:24.600 --> 01:15:27.760 Yeah, uh well are you in in Wood? Forest is 1373 01:15:27.800 --> 01:15:29.520 in on the east side just inside the? 1374 01:15:29.520 --> 01:15:35.960 Beltway, no, no, no We're conroe would forged oh By. 1375 01:15:36.039 --> 01:15:42.319 Conrad, Okay, so so azalias want bright, light but they 1376 01:15:42.359 --> 01:15:44.920 don't want direct sun all. Day they can take a 1377 01:15:45.079 --> 01:15:47.760 tad bit of, it you, know but in general they're 1378 01:15:47.800 --> 01:15:50.640 an understory for us plant and so they they do 1379 01:15:50.640 --> 01:15:52.880 you need good. Light so if they don't have enough, 1380 01:15:52.960 --> 01:15:55.560 light they're not gonna bloom as well because it takes 1381 01:15:55.640 --> 01:15:59.479 light to make. Carbohydrates takes carbohydrates to make. Blooms so, 1382 01:15:59.800 --> 01:16:05.560 uh they need adequate sun light, intensity not direct sun. 1383 01:16:05.840 --> 01:16:10.840 Necessarily they need an acidic soil and a continually moist. 1384 01:16:10.880 --> 01:16:13.760 Soil they're not efficient at taking up. Water they don't 1385 01:16:13.760 --> 01:16:17.159 have root hairs like a lot of plants, do and 1386 01:16:17.239 --> 01:16:20.439 so they do need to be kept moist and out of. 1387 01:16:20.479 --> 01:16:23.880 Stress and then as far as are your plants looking 1388 01:16:23.920 --> 01:16:26.720 good but just not blooming or do they not look good? 1389 01:16:26.800 --> 01:16:31.039 Either, no they look, fine it's just they won't set a. 1390 01:16:31.079 --> 01:16:36.239 Bloom AND i know there's different kinds nowadays because of you, 1391 01:16:36.239 --> 01:16:42.279 know genetic. Differentiations but, yes you, KNOW i just look 1392 01:16:42.319 --> 01:16:44.359 at the stuff that they grow In kingwood AND i, 1393 01:16:44.399 --> 01:16:45.840 think why CAN'T i do? 1394 01:16:45.960 --> 01:16:46.479 That you? 1395 01:16:46.520 --> 01:16:50.760 Know, yeah but maybe it Was maybe it's because they're 1396 01:16:50.800 --> 01:16:55.680 twenty years. Old you, KNOW i don't know. Yours you're 1397 01:16:55.720 --> 01:16:58.319 saying yours are twenty years? Old or there's In Kingdom, no, no, no, 1398 01:16:58.319 --> 01:16:59.199 no no no. 1399 01:17:00.479 --> 01:17:00.680 Ones. 1400 01:17:01.840 --> 01:17:05.479 Yeah, yeah, okay that's what you, Said. Ashley, okay, yeah, 1401 01:17:05.560 --> 01:17:09.800 so uh so it's just a matter of a good 1402 01:17:09.920 --> 01:17:13.119 maybe rethink the soil. Mix is?

Anyway i've got a large water oak in 1455 01:20:03.159 --> 01:20:06.720 my backyard in a pretty mature live oak in the, 1456 01:20:06.760 --> 01:20:09.479 front AND i just want to make SURE i don't 1457 01:20:10.079 --> 01:20:13.399 do any damage by trimming them or trimming them too. 1458 01:20:13.640 --> 01:20:16.640 Much and SO i want to get your feedback on 1459 01:20:16.720 --> 01:20:17.960 that you can. 1460 01:20:18.000 --> 01:20:22.439 Trim you can trim them all. Summer it's better to 1461 01:20:22.520 --> 01:20:25.800 minimize it than to do a lot of. Trimming and 1462 01:20:25.840 --> 01:20:28.279 so have you ever seen time laps photography where they 1463 01:20:28.279 --> 01:20:30.399 show a flower that may have taken six hours to 1464 01:20:30.479 --> 01:20:33.439 open and it does it in six. Seconds you know 1465 01:20:33.439 --> 01:20:36.239 What i'm. About time. Lapse so if you were to 1466 01:20:36.279 --> 01:20:39.000 take a pruning cut and you were to watch it 1467 01:20:39.119 --> 01:20:42.960 through the year From january To december time, lapse what 1468 01:20:43.039 --> 01:20:45.359 you would see is in winter it's not closing at, 1469 01:20:45.359 --> 01:20:48.159 all and then in spring it closes real, fast and 1470 01:20:48.199 --> 01:20:50.720 then in summer it slows down to a, crawl and 1471 01:20:50.720 --> 01:20:53.119 then in fall it speeds up a little, bit and 1472 01:20:53.159 --> 01:20:55.960 then it shuts down again in. Winter, Okay so that's 1473 01:20:56.000 --> 01:20:57.600 why we like to prune at the end of winter, 1474 01:20:58.199 --> 01:21:01.479 ideally because we get the fast time of healing right following. 1475 01:21:01.520 --> 01:21:04.880 That so you can prune though, anytime it's just not 1476 01:21:05.000 --> 01:21:08.199 going to close as, quickly and you don't want to 1477 01:21:08.239 --> 01:21:11.319 take out save the bulk of you're pruning for, winter 1478 01:21:11.960 --> 01:21:15.039 and do pruning through the year as needed here and. 1479 01:21:15.079 --> 01:21:19.119 There so when you say at the end of, winter 1480 01:21:19.239 --> 01:21:24.079 are you saying Like February, MARCH i guess for russ. 1481 01:21:23.800 --> 01:21:28.159 Uh no, more more like here Late january and In 1482 01:21:28.199 --> 01:21:32.600 february you're going to be seeing growth depending on let's 1483 01:21:32.600 --> 01:21:35.399 see where you're In. Cyprus, yeah you're going to see 1484 01:21:35.439 --> 01:21:39.159 some growth starting In. March so, right, yeah you'd like 1485 01:21:39.199 --> 01:21:41.000 to get it done ahead of. That here's the other. 1486 01:21:41.199 --> 01:21:44.439 Problem in the, winter the bark is stuck tight to the. 1487 01:21:44.479 --> 01:21:48.840 Wood when the sap begins to, flow it's real easy 1488 01:21:48.880 --> 01:21:51.359 to strip the bark. Off and when you're, pruning you 1489 01:21:51.359 --> 01:21:53.560 don't want a limb to fall and to rip a 1490 01:21:53.680 --> 01:21:56.479 little banana peel section of bark with it when it. 1491 01:21:56.560 --> 01:21:59.680 Falls so you want to use a three point, cut 1492 01:21:59.680 --> 01:22:01.520 and you need to go look that one up. Online 1493 01:22:01.560 --> 01:22:04.039 there's lots with a search engine you can find about 1494 01:22:04.239 --> 01:22:07.560 three point. Cuts and we'd like to do printing when 1495 01:22:07.600 --> 01:22:10.760 the bark, isn't as they, say, slipping it's much better 1496 01:22:10.920 --> 01:22:12.000 to avoid it when it's. 1497 01:22:12.039 --> 01:22:16.640 Slipping, okay So January, february that'd be a good time bark. 1498 01:22:16.479 --> 01:22:22.159 Wise It's January, january Early february to Mid february up 1499 01:22:22.159 --> 01:22:24.439 in your area would be fine and. 1500 01:22:24.640 --> 01:22:28.119 Alright covering spraying the black stuff on there after you 1501 01:22:28.199 --> 01:22:30.000 cut a, limb you, know leave an open. 1502 01:22:30.039 --> 01:22:31.840 Wound is it don't necessary or is that? 1503 01:22:33.079 --> 01:22:35.680 No you don't need to do.

Much, okay thank you all, right, 1507 01:22:48.720 --> 01:22:52.840 folks welcome, Back welcome back to the Guarden. Line good, 1508 01:22:52.880 --> 01:22:57.079 day be with us today your Host Skip, richter and 1509 01:22:57.119 --> 01:22:59.159 we're here to help you have a bountiful garden and 1510 01:22:59.199 --> 01:23:02.319 a beautiful land cape and more fun in the. Process 1511 01:23:02.520 --> 01:23:05.920 and by the, WAY i talking earlier, TODAY i was 1512 01:23:05.920 --> 01:23:10.039 talking about being sitting outside with family, yesterday just enjoying 1513 01:23:10.640 --> 01:23:13.199 the end of the. Day sun had gone, down so 1514 01:23:13.720 --> 01:23:16.600 that was still you, know upper, eighties low nineties even, 1515 01:23:16.760 --> 01:23:19.960 initially BUT i didn't feel so bad because we're just sitting. 1516 01:23:20.000 --> 01:23:21.640 Still we got a little family put on us out 1517 01:23:21.640 --> 01:23:24.319 there sometimes so it's a little, hotter but we enjoyed. 1518 01:23:24.359 --> 01:23:27.319 It but you know WHAT i, noticed there were almost 1519 01:23:27.359 --> 01:23:31.960 no mosquitoes, outside almost. Done and we had two weeks 1520 01:23:31.960 --> 01:23:37.199 ago seven inches of rain in our. House and that 1521 01:23:37.359 --> 01:23:39.960 means every little thing that can hold water has got 1522 01:23:40.000 --> 01:23:41.880 a puddle of water in. It and all it takes 1523 01:23:41.880 --> 01:23:45.720 for a mosquito to reproduce is a bottle cap full of, 1524 01:23:45.760 --> 01:23:50.399 water literally like a thumbleful of. Water basically that is 1525 01:23:50.439 --> 01:23:54.079 not much. Water and so there it was mosquito breeding. 1526 01:23:54.119 --> 01:23:56.319 Season and this is the same way at your. HOUSE 1527 01:23:56.359 --> 01:23:58.520 i mean it could be your irrigation sprinklers coming on 1528 01:23:58.680 --> 01:24:01.399 filling up. Something it could be you water and a, 1529 01:24:01.439 --> 01:24:04.760 plant and underneath the plant pot that little tray underneath 1530 01:24:04.760 --> 01:24:08.199 that holds. Water mosquitos will breathe in there and they 1531 01:24:08.199 --> 01:24:11.760 can do. That and months AGO i had Pest Bros 1532 01:24:11.960 --> 01:24:15.279 come out and install their mosquito buckets at my. Place, 1533 01:24:15.399 --> 01:24:18.840 now a mosquito bucket is not like this force field 1534 01:24:18.840 --> 01:24:21.039 that goes out and kills any mosquito that flies over 1535 01:24:21.079 --> 01:24:24.479 the fence from your. Neighbors but every mosquito the buckets 1536 01:24:24.600 --> 01:24:27.920 draw them to the. Bucket there's an odor that you 1537 01:24:28.000 --> 01:24:30.880 can't smell, it but the mosquitoes can and they go to. 1538 01:24:30.920 --> 01:24:34.039 IT i never smell my head right over the. BUCKET 1539 01:24:34.079 --> 01:24:36.960 i don't smell, anything but the mosquitoes, can and they 1540 01:24:38.319 --> 01:24:40.560 go to. It and they land in, there and when they, 1541 01:24:40.680 --> 01:24:42.680 land they get stuff on their, feet and that's the 1542 01:24:42.680 --> 01:24:45.239 beginning of the end for the. Mosquito they lay eggs in, 1543 01:24:45.319 --> 01:24:47.399 there and you see all these. REGULARS i opened the 1544 01:24:47.439 --> 01:24:49.880 bucket lid the other day covered with the regulars little 1545 01:24:49.920 --> 01:24:54.000 tomato mosquito larva in, there and they were just going to. 1546 01:24:54.000 --> 01:24:57.560 Town but those larva will never turn into an adult 1547 01:24:57.560 --> 01:25:00.000 mosquito because that bucket won't it's got stuff in it 1548 01:25:00.079 --> 01:25:03.399 won't let. Them but the fact that they're, there that 1549 01:25:03.560 --> 01:25:06.840 stagnant water brings more mosquitoes in and the odor so they, 1550 01:25:06.880 --> 01:25:09.000 land they get stuff on their. Feet that does two. 1551 01:25:09.039 --> 01:25:11.560 Things one of them is a disease of. Mosquitos and 1552 01:25:11.560 --> 01:25:14.319 that mosquito's got about a week to live before it'll 1553 01:25:14.319 --> 01:25:16.239 take it. OUT i. BELIEVE i believe a week is 1554 01:25:16.279 --> 01:25:19.319 correct on. That but you don't want to kill them right, 1555 01:25:19.359 --> 01:25:21.960 there because you want them to fly off and go 1556 01:25:22.039 --> 01:25:25.640 to other places where they will lay eggs in other 1557 01:25:26.159 --> 01:25:29.279 bits of, water and by this stuff they carry with 1558 01:25:29.319 --> 01:25:32.159 them on their, feet mosquitoes can't grow in that water. 1559 01:25:32.239 --> 01:25:37.199 Either and it just, works, Well, yeah you want that 1560 01:25:37.279 --> 01:25:40.880 mosquito going around everywhere there's stagnant. Water you want a 1561 01:25:40.880 --> 01:25:43.479 mosquito from one of your buckets to go, there and 1562 01:25:43.520 --> 01:25:46.399 it just causes this suppression of mosquitos through the whole 1563 01:25:46.399 --> 01:25:48.520 airt and it doesn't kill every mosquito there. IS i, 1564 01:25:48.600 --> 01:25:50.840 mean nothing's going to do. That you get you a 1565 01:25:50.880 --> 01:25:53.640 foger out there and nuke your house and yard every, 1566 01:25:53.720 --> 01:25:56.199 day and you're still gonna have mosquito to fly in 1567 01:25:56.479 --> 01:26:01.640 whenever the mist settles from the. Fogger, okay But i've 1568 01:26:01.680 --> 01:26:04.119 never seen anything like. IT i, mean last night was 1569 01:26:04.159 --> 01:26:07.159 the first time we saw a few mosquitos, around just a. Few. 1570 01:26:07.880 --> 01:26:10.079 Uh AND i don't like the in the. FOGGERS i have. 1571 01:26:10.159 --> 01:26:12.199 One i've used, it and when we're gonna have a 1572 01:26:12.199 --> 01:26:14.199 party with people out and. Stuff in the, PAST i 1573 01:26:14.199 --> 01:26:16.359 would get it out because you, know you know how 1574 01:26:16.399 --> 01:26:19.279 bad mosquitoes can. BE i Know i'm droning on about, 1575 01:26:19.319 --> 01:26:22.199 this BUT i was just really really impressed with the 1576 01:26:22.199 --> 01:26:24.199 way this worked and that Pest.

Look WHEN 1606 01:28:04.600 --> 01:28:07.039 i zoom in on that close up, One, LINDA i 1607 01:28:07.079 --> 01:28:09.520 see some gray leaf spot AND i think that's the 1608 01:28:09.560 --> 01:28:14.279 primary thing that you've got going on based on just 1609 01:28:14.359 --> 01:28:16.800 that close up, picture BECAUSE i can't make out detail 1610 01:28:16.840 --> 01:28:20.239 on the other. One gray leaf spot causes gray spots 1611 01:28:20.239 --> 01:28:22.199 on the, leaves and if you look close you'll see 1612 01:28:22.239 --> 01:28:24.520 some on, there and then the grass blades will often. 1613 01:28:24.640 --> 01:28:28.960 Die the tip turns, brown sometimes the whole grass blade 1614 01:28:29.000 --> 01:28:32.520 turns brown and it just looks like dying. Out but 1615 01:28:32.680 --> 01:28:37.039 that grass will regrow, fresh healthy. Leaves the more you 1616 01:28:37.079 --> 01:28:40.680 can minimize how much of the time the leafs the 1617 01:28:40.720 --> 01:28:45.119 grass blades spend, wet the. Better the wetter it, is 1618 01:28:45.319 --> 01:28:47.640 the more gray leaf spots you're going to. Have you 1619 01:28:47.680 --> 01:28:50.840 can treat it with a product From nitrofoss Called Eagle 1620 01:28:51.319 --> 01:28:56.479 Turf Fungicide eagle like the. Bird but at this, STAGE 1621 01:28:57.000 --> 01:28:59.119 i don't. Know you could go ahead and do a 1622 01:28:59.159 --> 01:29:01.560 treatment on, it or you could just kind of wait 1623 01:29:01.600 --> 01:29:04.079 and see and if if you go through perags of rainy, 1624 01:29:04.079 --> 01:29:06.600 weather it's going to be. Worse but as it heats 1625 01:29:06.680 --> 01:29:09.079 up and gets a little drier on, US i think 1626 01:29:09.159 --> 01:29:11.880 you're going to see it naturally reduce it as. 1627 01:29:11.960 --> 01:29:15.680 Well, okay thank, YOU i appreciate. 1628 01:29:15.720 --> 01:29:19.439 It all, Right we'll keep us posted if you see 1629 01:29:19.439 --> 01:29:22.840 any other problems in, it just let us, say we 1630 01:29:23.239 --> 01:29:26.079 can take a look at other.

CAN i. 1703 01:33:07.720 --> 01:33:12.640 Good i've got these thornless BLACKBERRIES i. Planted some's been 1704 01:33:12.640 --> 01:33:15.239 in ground two three. Years those have been around six seven. 1705 01:33:15.319 --> 01:33:19.279 Years And i've noticed something THAT i THINK i should 1706 01:33:19.279 --> 01:33:23.399 have cut off about months. Ago these things started putting 1707 01:33:23.399 --> 01:33:26.920 on a shooter coming out of the main portion of 1708 01:33:26.479 --> 01:33:29.880 the root, system and at FIRST i thought it was 1709 01:33:29.960 --> 01:33:32.560 just putting on more. Vines but this thing is, massive 1710 01:33:33.079 --> 01:33:35.079 kind of reminds me of the shooter that comes out 1711 01:33:35.079 --> 01:33:38.079 of a century. Plant AND i was, wondering is this 1712 01:33:38.159 --> 01:33:42.119 the end of the life of this BlackBerry or SHOULD 1713 01:33:42.119 --> 01:33:42.800 i now at? 1714 01:33:42.840 --> 01:33:47.880 All that's just, now that's just a, big, strong upright growing. Cane, 1715 01:33:48.239 --> 01:33:49.600 okay it's got leaves on, it. 1716 01:33:49.640 --> 01:33:52.319 Right that's it just. 1717 01:33:52.439 --> 01:33:52.840 Leaves. 1718 01:33:53.000 --> 01:33:57.640 Yeah so so here's here's how all blackberries. Grow that 1719 01:33:57.800 --> 01:34:01.119 they send up a shoot out of the base out 1720 01:34:01.159 --> 01:34:05.640 of the soil, typically and it grows the first, year 1721 01:34:06.159 --> 01:34:09.880 and it may branch the first year. Too the second 1722 01:34:09.960 --> 01:34:14.399 year it produces berries and then it slowly. Dies so 1723 01:34:14.560 --> 01:34:17.760 once you've harvested a shoot coming up out of the, 1724 01:34:17.760 --> 01:34:20.199 ground go ahead and cut it off because it will 1725 01:34:20.239 --> 01:34:26.560 not bear again after that winter time that it went. Through, 1726 01:34:26.640 --> 01:34:29.279 yes so the first year we call them a primocine 1727 01:34:29.319 --> 01:34:33.079 prime is in one year number. One then they go 1728 01:34:33.159 --> 01:34:36.239 through winter and they become a. Floricane, now some of 1729 01:34:36.279 --> 01:34:38.800 the thornlets like what you're talking, about they will produce 1730 01:34:38.840 --> 01:34:42.279 in the primacine year the first, year but after the 1731 01:34:42.319 --> 01:34:45.840 second year they need to be. Removed and so those 1732 01:34:45.880 --> 01:34:48.680 shoots are. Fine WHAT i would do rufus is once 1733 01:34:48.720 --> 01:34:53.039 it gets up to about chest, HIGH i would pinch 1734 01:34:53.119 --> 01:34:55.319 the top out or snip the top out of, it 1735 01:34:55.399 --> 01:34:58.880 and it'll force more side. Shoots and those side shoots 1736 01:34:58.920 --> 01:35:01.119 will be where you get all your your, fruit the 1737 01:35:01.159 --> 01:35:06.680 primary fruit from. Those so time to some people put 1738 01:35:06.680 --> 01:35:09.199 a wire across. There, pardon. 1739 01:35:10.880 --> 01:35:12.039 You're right, AGAIN i, have. 1740 01:35:14.439 --> 01:35:15.359 BUT i haven't caught them. 1741 01:35:15.399 --> 01:35:15.520 Yet. 1742 01:35:15.680 --> 01:35:18.600 YEAH i left them long BECAUSE i didn't want to 1743 01:35:18.680 --> 01:35:21.079 damage because the fruit came on so. Prolifically it's just. 1744 01:35:21.880 --> 01:35:26.319 Massive that's, Fine but that's. Fine get the ones that are. 1745 01:35:26.439 --> 01:35:31.600 Fruit tell me the tell me the. Name tell me 1746 01:35:31.640 --> 01:35:32.439 again the name of the. 1747 01:35:32.520 --> 01:35:38.920 VARIETY i Have, apache and Some navajo and. 1748 01:35:38.760 --> 01:35:44.000 Some uh what's the other?

Again so once they, fruited 1755 01:36:00.520 --> 01:36:03.239 you cut them. Off then you take those vigorous shoots 1756 01:36:03.239 --> 01:36:06.199 that you've been talking about and you lift them up 1757 01:36:06.239 --> 01:36:08.000 and tie them to the. Wire it's good to have 1758 01:36:08.039 --> 01:36:11.039 a vertical, WIRE i mean a horizontal wire going, about you, 1759 01:36:11.039 --> 01:36:13.880 know about chest high or, something and you can tie 1760 01:36:13.920 --> 01:36:16.479 them to, that tip them and then they'll they'll produce 1761 01:36:16.479 --> 01:36:19.920 their side, shoots which will produce next year's crop for. 1762 01:36:20.000 --> 01:36:23.600 You if it's some if it's one of the the 1763 01:36:23.640 --> 01:36:26.760 everbearing and not ever. Bearing if it's one of the 1764 01:36:26.760 --> 01:36:29.239 primate cane, bearers then you get a little bit the 1765 01:36:29.279 --> 01:36:31.239 first year, too and then you can also have some 1766 01:36:31.359 --> 01:36:35.800 the second.

Scott, Hello, 1793 01:38:07.159 --> 01:38:11.399 scott welcome to Garden. Line Good, lawren thanks for having. 1794 01:38:11.439 --> 01:38:16.199 Me, HEY i got a question regarding. FURTIGATION i was 1795 01:38:16.279 --> 01:38:17.560 driving home AND i THOUGHT i had. 1796 01:38:17.479 --> 01:38:21.079 This great idea to purtilize through my sprinkler. System AND 1797 01:38:21.119 --> 01:38:22.880 i started doing research on, it and it looked like 1798 01:38:22.880 --> 01:38:24.439 they were doing it in the eighties for quite a, 1799 01:38:24.439 --> 01:38:27.800 while and it really fell off the. Map and SO 1800 01:38:27.880 --> 01:38:32.079 i was, wondering after doing some research and, forums why 1801 01:38:32.119 --> 01:38:34.520 we don't use it in The houston. Area are if 1802 01:38:34.800 --> 01:38:38.279 the benefits and it did benefits of using. 1803 01:38:38.319 --> 01:38:49.600 It down, here. 1804 01:38:44.159 --> 01:38:51.680 You're referring to the furtigation. Specifically, yes, yeah furtigation is 1805 01:38:52.039 --> 01:38:55.960 a process that is best used for fine tuning the 1806 01:38:56.000 --> 01:38:59.560 timing of nutrient. Applications so if you needed to get 1807 01:38:59.600 --> 01:39:02.720 plants real quick nitrogen, boost you could do it through 1808 01:39:02.760 --> 01:39:07.680 a dissolved nitrogen source in your irrigation. Water that's for those, 1809 01:39:07.840 --> 01:39:11.800 listening that's what furtigation. Is it's fertilizing in the. Irrigation 1810 01:39:12.079 --> 01:39:15.600 that's where the word furtigation comes. From if you had 1811 01:39:15.640 --> 01:39:19.039 like an iron, deficiency you, know maybe you would put 1812 01:39:19.039 --> 01:39:22.359 something in for. That as far as what do you 1813 01:39:22.439 --> 01:39:25.279 pay per pound of, nutrient it's a much more expensive 1814 01:39:25.319 --> 01:39:28.880 way to. Fertilize you, know it's less expensive to put 1815 01:39:28.880 --> 01:39:31.960 a dry granule on the, surface work it, in and you, 1816 01:39:32.000 --> 01:39:35.359 know fertilize that, way the traditional. Way there's nothing wrong 1817 01:39:35.399 --> 01:39:38.560 with the. Furtigation you just need to have an injector 1818 01:39:38.800 --> 01:39:41.840 that puts it out at the right, rate not too, 1819 01:39:41.840 --> 01:39:46.319 strong and you need to have a backflow preventter so 1820 01:39:46.359 --> 01:39:49.920 that when it goes, off sometimes there can be a 1821 01:39:49.960 --> 01:39:54.039 backflow into your your water system and then you would 1822 01:39:54.039 --> 01:39:57.920 have contaminated your water with that fertilizer. Water so there's 1823 01:39:57.960 --> 01:40:00.720 a breaker valve that prevents the back. Flow you need 1824 01:40:00.760 --> 01:40:05.560 to have that for. Sure but the some injectors force 1825 01:40:06.159 --> 01:40:10.319 the fertilizer into the irrigation system like with a, pump 1826 01:40:10.960 --> 01:40:14.359 and some of them use something called a venture system 1827 01:40:14.520 --> 01:40:17.880 whereas the water flows, by it just naturally pulls a 1828 01:40:17.880 --> 01:40:21.800 little bit of the fertilizer water into. It those are less, 1829 01:40:21.840 --> 01:40:25.600 expensive much less technical to deal, with but not as 1830 01:40:27.319 --> 01:40:30.399 controllable and accurate as a pump system would. 1831 01:40:30.399 --> 01:40:34.840 Be, okay, thanks Kip. 1832 01:40:34.920 --> 01:40:37.720 YE i WAS i was wondering if you know they 1833 01:40:37.960 --> 01:40:38.760 if they need The venturi. 1834 01:40:38.840 --> 01:40:41.079 System they do it drip almost and it's like a 1835 01:40:41.159 --> 01:40:42.640 microdosing of fertilizer. 1836 01:40:42.840 --> 01:40:45.439 Constantly but, yes you know when we. 1837 01:40:47.239 --> 01:40:50.079 Do, It, yeah we'll do it once or twice the 1838 01:40:50.159 --> 01:40:50.920 summer and then the. 1839 01:40:50.920 --> 01:40:54.279 Wintertime and you, know is it is it possiful. 1840 01:40:53.920 --> 01:40:54.800 To do something like? 1841 01:40:54.840 --> 01:40:56.479 That and will it hurt your flower? 1842 01:40:56.520 --> 01:41:01.239 Beds, no it won't. Hurt IF i were spraying it 1843 01:41:01.359 --> 01:41:04.079 onto the foliage of, THINGS i wouldn't be real crazy 1844 01:41:04.119 --> 01:41:08.319 about spraying a fertilizer onto the foliage if it got too. 1845 01:41:08.399 --> 01:41:11.079 Strong but if it's in a proper. Rate that would 1846 01:41:11.079 --> 01:41:14.199 be just. Fine you can certainly do. That the other 1847 01:41:14.239 --> 01:41:16.199 thing to keep in, mind you, know when you're doing 1848 01:41:16.239 --> 01:41:19.720 the furtigating is just make sure it's small doses over. 1849 01:41:19.800 --> 01:41:25.760 Time and, yeah the venturi is it's a little typically 1850 01:41:25.760 --> 01:41:28.399 it looks like just a little section of plastic that 1851 01:41:28.520 --> 01:41:30.399 has a hose that comes out of, it and you 1852 01:41:30.479 --> 01:41:32.720 have a five gallon bucket with your fertilizer in. It 1853 01:41:32.800 --> 01:41:35.439 you drop that hose into the five gallon bucket and 1854 01:41:35.520 --> 01:41:38.359 as the water flows by in your, irrigation it just 1855 01:41:38.399 --> 01:41:40.520 pulls it out of the. Bucket that's the simplest. 1856 01:41:40.560 --> 01:41:43.720 System, okay thank you very. 1857 01:41:43.800 --> 01:41:47.760 Much, yeah just make sure and get fertilizer that's made for, 1858 01:41:47.840 --> 01:41:50.840 that because a lot of fertilizer comes in a clay 1859 01:41:50.880 --> 01:41:53.359 based particle and other, things and you don't want stuff 1860 01:41:53.399 --> 01:41:59.600 like that clog in your. System, okay that'll do, it, Alrighty, 1861 01:42:00.279 --> 01:42:03.319 YEAH i haven't had a fertile furtigation question in a long. 1862 01:42:03.479 --> 01:42:05.680 Time it was.

Line, hi good. 2084 01:54:46.000 --> 01:54:51.319 Morning my question IS i have a willow oak tree 2085 01:54:51.840 --> 01:54:54.119 that is approximately one hundred feet. 2086 01:54:54.000 --> 01:54:58.720 Tall and when it gets, dry it limbs break off and. 2087 01:54:58.920 --> 01:55:02.199 Drop and this is a really big tree and really large, 2088 01:55:02.239 --> 01:55:05.039 limbs AND i just want to know WHAT i can 2089 01:55:05.079 --> 01:55:06.039 do to help with. 2090 01:55:06.079 --> 01:55:08.520 That not. 2091 01:55:08.760 --> 01:55:13.079 Much maintaining adequate soil moisture helps a little, bit But 2092 01:55:13.640 --> 01:55:17.960 southern limb drop in the summer is a very peculiar. 2093 01:55:18.000 --> 01:55:22.439 Phenomenon there's different speculations as to why it. Happens but 2094 01:55:22.760 --> 01:55:24.800 you can have a perfectly still day in the middle 2095 01:55:24.800 --> 01:55:26.520 of summer and a limb just snaps out of a 2096 01:55:26.560 --> 01:55:31.000 tree and. Falls it's a weird, deal but it you, 2097 01:55:31.039 --> 01:55:33.640 know what is in your power is to make sure 2098 01:55:33.680 --> 01:55:37.560 the tree doesn't get drought. Stressed sometimes it's associated with 2099 01:55:37.640 --> 01:55:40.039 maybe an injury to the trunk or a bore inside 2100 01:55:40.119 --> 01:55:43.600 or something that's weakening the, limb but not. Necessarily sometimes 2101 01:55:43.600 --> 01:55:45.640 you look at the fallen limb and you can't figure 2102 01:55:45.640 --> 01:55:48.359 out what. Happened it's not rotten, inside it just it 2103 01:55:48.479 --> 01:55:51.920 just does. It, unfortunately we don't have a spray or 2104 01:55:51.960 --> 01:55:53.520 a magical cure to make it go. 2105 01:55:53.600 --> 01:55:58.600 Away that's exactly What i've been experiencing FOR i don't 2106 01:55:58.640 --> 01:55:59.279 know ten or more. 2107 01:55:59.359 --> 01:56:03.840 YEARS i have been watering it around the trunk to help. 2108 01:56:03.880 --> 01:56:10.840 It then that seems to be uh huh.

Germinate so you don't want to 2133 01:57:25.439 --> 01:57:27.640 mix the seed in too. Deep just scratch them barely 2134 01:57:27.640 --> 01:57:30.680 into the, surface water them in real, well and keep 2135 01:57:30.720 --> 01:57:33.039 it moist as best you. Can so you don't want 2136 01:57:33.039 --> 01:57:34.920 to put on an inch of, water but you want 2137 01:57:34.960 --> 01:57:38.119 to put on small amounts frequently to maintain. Moisture once 2138 01:57:38.159 --> 01:57:40.760 the seed starts to, germinate if it dries, out it. 2139 01:57:40.840 --> 01:57:44.319 Dies so that's the key early on with a little 2140 01:57:44.399 --> 01:57:47.439 tiny seed like your bermuda, grass is to keep it 2141 01:57:47.600 --> 01:57:54.079 consistently moist equi. Moist and then once it gets, established 2142 01:57:54.279 --> 01:57:58.880 then we begin to wean back to watering very. Infrequently 2143 01:58:00.159 --> 01:58:06.680 those first weeks you just need to, yeah several. Weeks, 2144 01:58:06.960 --> 01:58:10.359 yeah once it, germinates it's gonna need at least another 2145 01:58:10.399 --> 01:58:13.640 couple of. Weeks a pretty GOOD tlc there to keep it. 2146 01:58:13.720 --> 01:58:16.079 Going and hope we don't get a gully. Washer what 2147 01:58:16.239 --> 01:58:18.399 usually happens when you seed out bermuda as you get 2148 01:58:18.399 --> 01:58:20.800 a gully washer and then it washes all the seed 2149 01:58:20.840 --> 01:58:23.039 off into one spot and so you got a real 2150 01:58:23.079 --> 01:58:25.439 furry spot on the ground and then a spout. Nothing 2151 01:58:26.079 --> 01:58:28.079 Uh so that's what we like to try to avoid 2152 01:58:28.119 --> 01:58:28.359 if we. 2153 01:58:28.399 --> 01:58:31.439 Can that's WHY i waited till after we got that 2154 01:58:31.520 --> 01:58:33.600 five minutes rang about a month. 2155 01:58:33.640 --> 01:58:38.600 Ago, yeah, yeah well thank, you that's right tomorrow.

Anything 2303 02:06:55.319 --> 02:06:58.640 it will it produce more flowers after. That so once 2304 02:06:58.680 --> 02:07:01.159 it goes, through its, cool it's finished. 2305 02:07:01.199 --> 02:07:06.359 Blooming yeah, Nothing, yeah that's.

Uh but you know what a cool thing 2308 02:07:11.319 --> 02:07:13.479 you can do with, it, though is if you will 2309 02:07:13.520 --> 02:07:16.680 pick them when they're almost fully opened in the morning 2310 02:07:16.880 --> 02:07:19.760 and put them in the. Refrigerator they will sit there 2311 02:07:19.840 --> 02:07:22.680 until the evening and not with her.

Evenings, 2317 02:07:35.479 --> 02:07:38.600 otherwise by evening the bloom would have already been curling 2318 02:07:38.680 --> 02:07:40.399 up and not looking so.

Okay here's the. Thing it 2366 02:10:17.000 --> 02:10:20.119 could be a lack of, moisture and it could be 2367 02:10:20.319 --> 02:10:23.720 a lack of. Nutrients fertilizing is always a good, idea 2368 02:10:24.159 --> 02:10:27.880 but watering during, hot dry weather is even more important 2369 02:10:28.479 --> 02:10:31.159 to get a tree to grow. Fast another thing that 2370 02:10:31.279 --> 02:10:33.720 speeds up growth is to get the grass and weeds. 2371 02:10:33.760 --> 02:10:36.920 Away if you can create a mulched bed around. It you, 2372 02:10:36.960 --> 02:10:39.239 know if you can only make it two feet out 2373 02:10:39.279 --> 02:10:41.399 from the, trunk that's. Fine if you can make it, 2374 02:10:41.439 --> 02:10:45.359 wider that's even. Better but that helps speed. Growth sometimes For, 2375 02:10:45.479 --> 02:10:47.960 hana trees sit in the pot too long and the 2376 02:10:48.039 --> 02:10:50.840 roots go around and around in, there and then when 2377 02:10:50.880 --> 02:10:52.760 you put them in the, ground if you don't cut those, 2378 02:10:52.880 --> 02:10:57.920 roots they they don't unwind underground and they don't venture 2379 02:10:57.960 --> 02:11:00.800 out into the soil as well as they would had 2380 02:11:00.800 --> 02:11:02.680 they been cut or not left in the pot so. 2381 02:11:02.760 --> 02:11:06.800 Long at the garden centers and, growers but that could 2382 02:11:06.800 --> 02:11:11.319 be the case with, IT i, would you, know it's 2383 02:11:11.399 --> 02:11:13.520 kind of hard to say without me digging it up 2384 02:11:13.560 --> 02:11:16.479 and looking at, it BUT i would try the. MULCHING 2385 02:11:16.600 --> 02:11:18.479 i would try making sure it's getting out of quate. 2386 02:11:18.600 --> 02:11:21.800 Water and if you wanted to take a hand, trowel 2387 02:11:21.960 --> 02:11:23.760 let me ask you. This do you remember when it 2388 02:11:23.840 --> 02:11:26.520 went in the ground in twenty twenty? Three do you 2389 02:11:26.560 --> 02:11:28.720 remember about how big that pot? 2390 02:11:28.880 --> 02:11:28.960 Was? 2391 02:11:29.199 --> 02:11:31.439 Is are we looking at like a five gallon bucket 2392 02:11:31.520 --> 02:11:34.000 or we looking at a one gallon? Tree or were 2393 02:11:34.039 --> 02:11:40.399 looking at something much? Bigger i'm not. 2394 02:11:40.680 --> 02:11:44.239 Sure if you, LIKE i can take some pictures to. 2395 02:11:44.279 --> 02:11:48.600 You, yeah you can do. THAT i, would you, KNOW 2396 02:11:48.680 --> 02:11:51.159 i would take a hand, trowel dig around the, tree 2397 02:11:51.239 --> 02:11:53.439 look for roots going in a, circle and if you see, 2398 02:11:53.439 --> 02:11:56.199 them cut, them cut a few of. Them but right, 2399 02:11:56.239 --> 02:11:58.159 NOW i think the most important thing is going to 2400 02:11:58.199 --> 02:12:00.720 be multing it to keep the weeds away the competition 2401 02:12:00.840 --> 02:12:05.680 down watering it second most important, thing, watering, watering watering 2402 02:12:06.159 --> 02:12:10.720 during dry hot, weather and then finally continuing to.

In if drainage is at all a, 2478 02:16:41.959 --> 02:16:45.280 question build a raised mound so it doesn't stay soggy, 2479 02:16:45.280 --> 02:16:49.600 wet fertilized, moderately and they're one of the heartiest citrus 2480 02:16:49.639 --> 02:16:52.159 you can, grow so you shouldn't have any problem in 2481 02:16:52.200 --> 02:16:58.079 your area growing them. Successfully, now How. 2482 02:16:59.639 --> 02:17:03.959 I'm going to put it in a pot BECAUSE i fled, 2483 02:17:04.040 --> 02:17:06.840 here so that that's not good for. It SO i 2484 02:17:06.920 --> 02:17:09.920 want to be able, to, okay you, know put them 2485 02:17:09.920 --> 02:17:14.079 on a higher level or bring them. In how how 2486 02:17:14.120 --> 02:17:16.639 big do they? Get is there a difference in size 2487 02:17:16.680 --> 02:17:18.200 between in the gammi and The. 2488 02:17:19.559 --> 02:17:23.719 No not, really not not. Much they do grow in a, 2489 02:17:23.760 --> 02:17:25.479 pot but you need as big a pot as you 2490 02:17:25.479 --> 02:17:28.159 can get so think in terms of the volume of 2491 02:17:28.159 --> 02:17:30.399 a half whiskey. Barrel but don't put them in a wooden. 2492 02:17:30.399 --> 02:17:33.799 Pot they'll rot. Out it'll rot. Out but about a 2493 02:17:33.840 --> 02:17:36.520 half whiskey barrel in, size you're gonna need to use 2494 02:17:36.559 --> 02:17:39.319 a dolly with a little strap around the pot to 2495 02:17:39.399 --> 02:17:42.360 move it at that. Size but that way you'll get 2496 02:17:42.639 --> 02:17:45.479 more of a plant that's less likely to be constantly 2497 02:17:45.600 --> 02:17:48.559 drought stressed from being in too small of a. Pot, 2498 02:17:51.159 --> 02:17:55.040 okay all, right, Sir i'm Gonna i'm gonna need to 2499 02:17:55.120 --> 02:17:57.159 run to some pardon. 2500 02:17:59.520 --> 02:18:03.360 Any any other advice on it is type of pinting 2501 02:18:03.440 --> 02:18:03.959 soil to. 2502 02:18:03.920 --> 02:18:04.399 Put, in. 2503 02:18:06.239 --> 02:18:08.360 You, know a good quality in a big pot like. 2504 02:18:08.399 --> 02:18:10.399 THAT i would probably use a rose.

BIG 2668 02:27:20.559 --> 02:27:29.520 i would, say maybe it's hard to tell exactly how 2669 02:27:29.559 --> 02:27:33.079 big they. ARE i can't wrap my hands around. 2670 02:27:33.079 --> 02:27:34.159 Either. Women let's put it that. 2671 02:27:34.159 --> 02:27:38.600 Way, Okay so here here's the here's the bottom. Line 2672 02:27:39.239 --> 02:27:43.000 anytime you it gets that far along before you make the, 2673 02:27:43.079 --> 02:27:46.760 cut there's gonna be a big section of exposed interior 2674 02:27:46.879 --> 02:27:50.680 wood way before it can heal and close or close 2675 02:27:50.760 --> 02:27:55.159 over that, Wound you're gonna end up with decay going. 2676 02:27:55.200 --> 02:27:57.760 On so the base of that tree is gonna be 2677 02:27:57.920 --> 02:28:01.440 weaker than the rest of the, tree which means during 2678 02:28:01.559 --> 02:28:05.120 a decade down the, line during a good, storm it's 2679 02:28:05.159 --> 02:28:08.280 more likely to snap. Off. There there's nothing you can 2680 02:28:08.319 --> 02:28:10.559 do to fix it or prevent. It there's no sense 2681 02:28:10.559 --> 02:28:13.280 in painting the cut that only actually makes it low 2682 02:28:13.319 --> 02:28:18.440 worse in terms of not rotting. Inside so you just 2683 02:28:18.479 --> 02:28:20.920 have to make your best.

Vtext so right, NOW i have been 2885 02:39:24.680 --> 02:39:27.239 in this house for a. WHILE i don't know really 2886 02:39:27.239 --> 02:39:29.959 how old the vitext, is but it's about four or 2887 02:39:29.959 --> 02:39:33.639 maybe five feet away from the, house and it's big 2888 02:39:33.760 --> 02:39:37.000 enough to where the majority of the foliage is above 2889 02:39:38.200 --> 02:39:41.959 a one story, house right and AND i want it 2890 02:39:41.959 --> 02:39:45.680 there BECAUSE i want the shade because it's a really 2891 02:39:45.719 --> 02:39:48.040 hot side of the house AND i want some shade 2892 02:39:48.120 --> 02:39:52.319 during the hot. Summers And i'm, wondering do you think 2893 02:39:52.360 --> 02:39:55.399 there's any problems that could get run into as far 2894 02:39:55.440 --> 02:39:57.239 as like the roots damaging the. 2895 02:39:57.319 --> 02:40:02.360 Foundation, no here's what. Happens it's not that the roots 2896 02:40:02.399 --> 02:40:04.399 are going to lift up and crack your foundation like 2897 02:40:04.520 --> 02:40:07.760 roots can do a. Sidewalk what happens is tree. Roots 2898 02:40:07.760 --> 02:40:09.680 and it doesn't have to be a tree wrap beside your. 2899 02:40:09.719 --> 02:40:12.440 House it could be a tree halfway across the.
