WEBVTT 1 00:06:04.360 --> 00:06:07.040 Let's do a gardening show this morning. How about it. 2 00:06:07.199 --> 00:06:11.120 Congratulations everybody that's got both eyes open, hopefully a cup 3 00:06:11.199 --> 00:06:14.000 of coffee or something helping you get the other one open, 4 00:06:14.000 --> 00:06:16.199 if you just got one that most open. I started 5 00:06:16.240 --> 00:06:18.759 off that way this morning. It took a while. It 6 00:06:18.800 --> 00:06:22.680 took a while, that is for sure. But anyway, welcome 7 00:06:22.720 --> 00:06:25.160 to garden Line. We are looking forward to visiting with 8 00:06:25.199 --> 00:06:28.079 you about the things that you are most interested in. 9 00:06:28.279 --> 00:06:32.040 What kind of questions do you have about gardening? We'll 10 00:06:32.079 --> 00:06:36.279 be happy to answer those. Someone was asking me the 11 00:06:36.319 --> 00:06:39.759 other day about a potting mix, and they were talking 12 00:06:39.759 --> 00:06:42.319 about potting up some stuff and ask me, you know, 13 00:06:42.360 --> 00:06:44.560 what would you what would you suggest? And you know, 14 00:06:44.720 --> 00:06:47.839 there's good mixes out there, but the one that I 15 00:06:48.319 --> 00:06:51.199 basically think is the one to grab is going to 16 00:06:51.240 --> 00:06:55.000 be a Jungle Land by Nitrofoss. And I find that 17 00:06:55.000 --> 00:06:59.639 that potting mix, the way that it drains internally, but 18 00:06:59.680 --> 00:07:02.720 also way it holds onto moisture. That combination is what 19 00:07:02.959 --> 00:07:05.279 that's the key to a successful mix. And this one 20 00:07:05.360 --> 00:07:08.920 has it. It's a blend of Canadian blonde peat. It 21 00:07:09.000 --> 00:07:13.720 also has four different sources of organic decomposed aged bark 22 00:07:13.959 --> 00:07:17.199 in it and the microrhizal fungi that work with a 23 00:07:17.199 --> 00:07:20.240 plant route. So that combination right there pretty well does it. 24 00:07:20.279 --> 00:07:23.000 Now they got their outdoor jungle End flour and vegetable 25 00:07:23.000 --> 00:07:25.680 planting soil, and then for indoors they have the jungle 26 00:07:25.800 --> 00:07:28.600 End water saver that has the crystals that whole extra water, 27 00:07:29.079 --> 00:07:31.399 so not that the roots are soggy, but that when 28 00:07:31.399 --> 00:07:33.879 the mix gets dry, those crystals don't dry out as 29 00:07:33.920 --> 00:07:36.360 fast and so the plant can still get a little 30 00:07:36.360 --> 00:07:39.360 bit of water and that ends up working really really well. 31 00:07:39.720 --> 00:07:43.319 You're going to find nitrofoss products in Brenham if you're 32 00:07:43.319 --> 00:07:46.279 out there. Plants and things on Highway three sixty five, 33 00:07:46.680 --> 00:07:49.680 M and D and clear Lake on Bay Area Boulevard, 34 00:07:49.720 --> 00:07:53.240 and M and D on Beamer Sagemont Area they have 35 00:07:53.360 --> 00:07:56.759 them there as well. Lots of places you can find 36 00:07:57.040 --> 00:08:02.079 nitrofoss products here in the community. My favorite thing to 37 00:08:02.160 --> 00:08:06.959 do really any day of the week, but especially like 38 00:08:07.000 --> 00:08:11.319 on a Sunday afternoon or or even a Saturday, is 39 00:08:11.319 --> 00:08:14.000 to get out and visit some garden centers. I did 40 00:08:14.000 --> 00:08:15.639 a little bit a little bit of that yesterday. By 41 00:08:15.639 --> 00:08:19.519 the way, I was at Jorges Hidden gardens down in 42 00:08:19.680 --> 00:08:23.120 Alvin yesterday and boy, thanks to everybody that came out. 43 00:08:23.199 --> 00:08:26.040 You guys, you go, you guys want me out on questions, 44 00:08:26.480 --> 00:08:30.319 That's for sure. I would by the time I answered one, 45 00:08:30.360 --> 00:08:32.440 here comes another one and gave away a lot of 46 00:08:32.480 --> 00:08:35.000 good products and got to see Horay's place again. And 47 00:08:35.120 --> 00:08:38.279 you know, it's it's just it's great, it really is. 48 00:08:38.320 --> 00:08:42.200 He has a selection of fruit trees that is perfectly 49 00:08:42.240 --> 00:08:44.360 designed for that area. You know, if you want to 50 00:08:44.360 --> 00:08:45.879 get a peach tree, you don't want a high show 51 00:08:45.919 --> 00:08:48.759 peach when you live south of Houston, for sure. And 52 00:08:48.799 --> 00:08:51.279 then so what you're gonna want to do is get 53 00:08:51.279 --> 00:08:53.720 one that is suited your area, so it blooms at 54 00:08:53.720 --> 00:08:56.639 the right time, doesn't bloom too early, it doesn't never 55 00:08:56.720 --> 00:08:59.639 come out of winter like high hilwood down there. He's 56 00:08:59.679 --> 00:09:02.519 got the he's got things like avocados. We're looking at 57 00:09:02.519 --> 00:09:07.919 his avocados and then his blueberries and just lots of fruit, apples, pears, 58 00:09:08.000 --> 00:09:11.759 you name it. His trees in the back are really 59 00:09:12.080 --> 00:09:16.720 in beautiful shape. I think that that is one of 60 00:09:16.759 --> 00:09:20.919 the strong points really because he has such an excellent 61 00:09:20.960 --> 00:09:23.360 selection and they will come out and plant them for you. 62 00:09:23.440 --> 00:09:25.480 If you need him too, they can. There's a cost 63 00:09:25.519 --> 00:09:27.360 to that, but they can come out and plant them 64 00:09:27.360 --> 00:09:29.279 for you, which makes it easy. Because you're talking about 65 00:09:29.279 --> 00:09:32.120 something that's got thirty gallons of soil. It's a little 66 00:09:32.159 --> 00:09:36.120 hard to pick up. So why don't you check him out. 67 00:09:36.399 --> 00:09:39.399 I love going to jorgeshid and Gardens, and I just 68 00:09:39.840 --> 00:09:45.720 really enjoyed it yesterday. That was good. So when I'm anyway, 69 00:09:45.759 --> 00:09:48.320 when I'm out and about visiting garden centers and things, 70 00:09:48.600 --> 00:09:51.679 I find that there's always something I haven't seen before, 71 00:09:51.840 --> 00:09:54.679 something that I haven't tried before, or something like that. 72 00:09:55.120 --> 00:09:59.399 And when you see new plants, it just gives you 73 00:09:59.440 --> 00:10:02.559 an opportunity need to try out something new. And I 74 00:10:02.639 --> 00:10:06.080 know that tried and true plants are the dependables. We 75 00:10:06.120 --> 00:10:09.000 want to do that like our plants celebrity tomatoes because 76 00:10:09.039 --> 00:10:12.200 that's an old standard, that is our great tomato. But 77 00:10:12.279 --> 00:10:15.080 I always try something new because who knows, maybe you 78 00:10:15.120 --> 00:10:19.120 find a new favorite. That's true as it comes to flowers, 79 00:10:19.279 --> 00:10:21.759 as the breeders work on things, we are finding we're 80 00:10:21.759 --> 00:10:26.320 getting more good heat tolerance in our flowers that works 81 00:10:26.320 --> 00:10:29.480 well down here. We are finding other options in terms 82 00:10:29.519 --> 00:10:32.519 of height. That's another important thing. Remember when all lantanas 83 00:10:32.519 --> 00:10:36.039 were waist high or bigger, and then we started to 84 00:10:36.080 --> 00:10:38.679 discover smaller and smaller ones. Now they have lantanas that 85 00:10:38.720 --> 00:10:42.279 are like a foot tall. They're very tiny, tiny ones. 86 00:10:43.240 --> 00:10:45.399 But that's what I'm talking about. Try something new, go 87 00:10:45.440 --> 00:10:47.440 out and visit a garden center. That's how you find 88 00:10:47.480 --> 00:10:51.200 out about these things, because the breeders are out there 89 00:10:51.240 --> 00:10:53.320 creating them, and then the people that sell them to 90 00:10:53.360 --> 00:10:56.440 the garden centers are telling the garden centers about something 91 00:10:56.919 --> 00:11:01.480 cool and new and fun to get out in the garden. 92 00:11:01.519 --> 00:11:03.840 We want our vegetable gardens to be bountiful. We want 93 00:11:04.000 --> 00:11:08.600 our landscapes and flower beds to be beautiful. But I 94 00:11:08.600 --> 00:11:11.240 always throw the third thing in, and that is have 95 00:11:11.679 --> 00:11:15.480 fun in the process. Have fun. Gardening is supposed to 96 00:11:15.559 --> 00:11:19.679 be fun, and you can enjoy yourself a lot just 97 00:11:19.720 --> 00:11:24.000 by getting out and having fun in Jenet gardens. It 98 00:11:24.080 --> 00:11:26.159 is a great place to get out and have fun. 99 00:11:26.159 --> 00:11:28.639 In fact, they'd be a good spot to visit this afternoon. 100 00:11:29.159 --> 00:11:32.720 They are out in the Richmond Rosenberg area, just north 101 00:11:32.759 --> 00:11:37.240 of Richmond Rosenberg toward Katie and Fulscher. The actual road 102 00:11:37.240 --> 00:11:40.639 that they're on is FM three point fifty nine and 103 00:11:41.039 --> 00:11:43.960 in Jenet Gardens is one of those places where you 104 00:11:44.039 --> 00:11:46.240 want to take friends when you go. And I always 105 00:11:46.279 --> 00:11:48.120 suggest that because it's kind of fun to walk around 106 00:11:48.120 --> 00:11:51.159 with your friends and see and do things. And when 107 00:11:51.200 --> 00:11:53.799 you go there, you're going to see just this huge expanse. 108 00:11:53.840 --> 00:11:55.559 It's going to take a while to get around. This 109 00:11:55.720 --> 00:11:59.519 selection of tomatoes is outstanding right now. On peppers and 110 00:11:59.559 --> 00:12:03.639 other vegetable plants. Of course, the color is it just 111 00:12:03.679 --> 00:12:06.960 pops everywhere you look. And when it comes to shrubs 112 00:12:06.960 --> 00:12:09.559 and trees, whether it's a rose bush or a shrub 113 00:12:09.600 --> 00:12:12.519 for a hedge, or a nice tree for your landscape, 114 00:12:12.559 --> 00:12:15.600 they've got them all there. I like to go visit 115 00:12:15.720 --> 00:12:18.480 some of the whimsical things they have, like the fountains, 116 00:12:18.519 --> 00:12:22.159 the chimes, the whimsical garden art. I think those are cool, 117 00:12:22.639 --> 00:12:27.600 but like you would expect from a quality home, mom 118 00:12:27.639 --> 00:12:30.679 and pop independent. Those are all the adjectives for it. 119 00:12:30.879 --> 00:12:34.120 Garden center, you're going to get expert advice, people that 120 00:12:34.159 --> 00:12:36.120 know what they're talking about. You come in, you bring 121 00:12:36.159 --> 00:12:39.080 them a photo, You say, hey, look at this area. 122 00:12:39.559 --> 00:12:41.519 What would grow in that shady spot over there in 123 00:12:41.559 --> 00:12:44.440 the photo, Or you're looking at a problem that you're 124 00:12:44.440 --> 00:12:46.159 having with a plant, even if it's a plant you 125 00:12:46.159 --> 00:12:47.679 didn't buy their show it to them. They'll help you 126 00:12:47.720 --> 00:12:50.360 with it, and they'll put you in touch with plants 127 00:12:50.600 --> 00:12:53.240 they may not get that problem that are that are 128 00:12:53.360 --> 00:12:56.840 very resistant, and that just her good choices. They carry 129 00:12:57.080 --> 00:13:02.080 fertilizers like nitrofoss and Nelson and Medina. They carry Nature's 130 00:13:02.120 --> 00:13:06.759 Way and heirloom soil as well. So bottom line is, 131 00:13:07.279 --> 00:13:10.000 enjoy yourself out there, have a good time, and I 132 00:13:10.000 --> 00:13:13.720 promise you will at Enchented Gardens. They're open today from 133 00:13:13.759 --> 00:13:17.200 ten to four pm Monday through Saturday eight to five. 134 00:13:17.600 --> 00:13:19.320 I'm going to take a little break and I will 135 00:13:19.320 --> 00:13:25.240 be right back. Well, good morning, welcome back to garden Line. 136 00:13:25.240 --> 00:13:27.279 I'm your host, Skip Richter. It is good to have 137 00:13:27.360 --> 00:13:31.679 you with us this morning. And I wanted to mention, well, 138 00:13:31.759 --> 00:13:35.759 i've while i'm thinking about it, that next week. Yesterday 139 00:13:35.799 --> 00:13:37.679 I was out at forges Head and Gardens in Alvin. 140 00:13:37.720 --> 00:13:39.000 By the way, if you haven't been there, you need 141 00:13:39.080 --> 00:13:40.960 to go. Next week. I'm going to head up to 142 00:13:41.000 --> 00:13:44.279 Porter to Jay and are Ace and Porter, so all 143 00:13:44.320 --> 00:13:47.120 of you get folks up fifty nine up that direction 144 00:13:47.919 --> 00:13:50.360 fifty nine sixty nine, both of them up there. Hey, 145 00:13:50.840 --> 00:13:53.279 jyn our Ace is one of those Ace hardware stores 146 00:13:53.320 --> 00:13:55.799 where you're going to find everything you're looking for. I mean, 147 00:13:55.840 --> 00:13:59.960 it really is a good store that the the supple 148 00:14:00.120 --> 00:14:03.399 lies for your gardening are just exactly what you would 149 00:14:03.440 --> 00:14:06.039 expect from an Ace hardware store. And that means they 150 00:14:06.080 --> 00:14:08.559 got everything you need. And j and our Ace, I'll 151 00:14:08.559 --> 00:14:12.080 be there from twelve noon to two pm. So come 152 00:14:12.120 --> 00:14:14.960 on over and see me again. Those of you Kingwood 153 00:14:15.000 --> 00:14:18.320 area all through that area really a porter for sure. 154 00:14:19.919 --> 00:14:22.600 I'll be there from twelve to two and we're going 155 00:14:22.679 --> 00:14:24.559 to be you know what, I believe it's twelve thirty. 156 00:14:24.600 --> 00:14:26.960 Let me check that I have an old piece of 157 00:14:27.000 --> 00:14:29.320 paper and it has twelve and I think they change 158 00:14:29.360 --> 00:14:32.399 that one. I'll let you know in a little bit here. Anyway, 159 00:14:32.679 --> 00:14:35.480 come on out and see me. So in the yard, 160 00:14:35.720 --> 00:14:40.080 my grass is showing the signs of all the winter freezes, 161 00:14:40.159 --> 00:14:42.720 you know that kind of turned it gray or tan, 162 00:14:43.840 --> 00:14:46.440 and it needs to be mowed down, and I'm gonna 163 00:14:46.480 --> 00:14:49.480 do that. I just I always wait a little bit 164 00:14:49.480 --> 00:14:51.840 to mow until the grass is really ready to grow 165 00:14:51.960 --> 00:14:55.440 some And the reason is when you mow and cut 166 00:14:55.519 --> 00:14:59.399 down lower with that first mowing. People use the term scalping. 167 00:14:59.440 --> 00:15:02.840 I don't like that. That's a term used especially with 168 00:15:02.919 --> 00:15:07.080 bermuda grass and other things. But don't scalp. Don't scalp 169 00:15:07.159 --> 00:15:09.039 means like you cut it all off at the base 170 00:15:09.120 --> 00:15:12.120 and instead cut it at a little bit lower height 171 00:15:12.159 --> 00:15:14.559 than normal. Then you're gonna be using in the summer, 172 00:15:14.799 --> 00:15:18.039 and just get the debris out of there. That's the 173 00:15:18.039 --> 00:15:21.799 one time. And I probably don't recycle the clippings unless 174 00:15:21.960 --> 00:15:24.519 you just you know, don't have much to cut back, 175 00:15:24.600 --> 00:15:27.080 then go ahead and do it. But when you get 176 00:15:27.080 --> 00:15:30.519 those clippings, use them in your landscape. They make good 177 00:15:30.759 --> 00:15:33.080 especially as they're dried. They make a good mult around 178 00:15:33.159 --> 00:15:36.039 beds and things in the shrub beds and other things. 179 00:15:36.279 --> 00:15:39.080 Just take advantage of them because they have nutrients in them, 180 00:15:39.240 --> 00:15:43.200 and so don't pay somebody to haul that off your property. Anyway, 181 00:15:43.480 --> 00:15:45.960 I have to get mine cut back, and I've got 182 00:15:46.039 --> 00:15:48.559 to get a couple of other things done. I'm getting 183 00:15:48.600 --> 00:15:52.120 ready for my big fertilization season coming up this summer. 184 00:15:52.720 --> 00:15:54.440 And if you go to if you go on line 185 00:15:54.480 --> 00:15:58.000 to my website gardening with Skip dot com, when you 186 00:15:58.039 --> 00:16:01.720 get there, there's right in the middle of the menu 187 00:16:01.799 --> 00:16:05.320 bar it says lawn schedules, and you can look at 188 00:16:05.320 --> 00:16:08.679 the lawn care schedule or the lawn pests, disease and 189 00:16:08.720 --> 00:16:13.039 weed management schedule, and both of those are very helpful. 190 00:16:13.120 --> 00:16:16.559 I've designed them hopefully to be easy to follow because 191 00:16:16.559 --> 00:16:20.000 they're color coded. Like I'm looking at the lawn schedule 192 00:16:20.080 --> 00:16:23.840 right now, and it has a row for fertilizing with 193 00:16:23.879 --> 00:16:27.480 synthetic fertilizers and a row for fertilizing with organic fertilizers. 194 00:16:27.519 --> 00:16:29.480 And then you look at the colors of those rows 195 00:16:29.480 --> 00:16:32.519 and go to the bottom and you can see some 196 00:16:32.559 --> 00:16:37.840 suggestions from me as to good examples of the fertilizers 197 00:16:37.879 --> 00:16:40.679 to use for that ones that I would suggest you use. 198 00:16:41.440 --> 00:16:46.000 There's also information on air rating on there and mowing 199 00:16:46.080 --> 00:16:48.440 and watering. He's thinking, I don't need to be told 200 00:16:48.480 --> 00:16:50.720 how to mow a lawn, Well, just read it see 201 00:16:50.720 --> 00:16:52.519 what you may pick up a tip or two on there. 202 00:16:53.039 --> 00:16:55.279 And then on the other side as the insect diseases 203 00:16:55.279 --> 00:16:58.159 and weeds. Right now, we are at the end of 204 00:16:58.440 --> 00:17:01.840 the season where we treat for a brown patch, and 205 00:17:01.919 --> 00:17:04.400 so I've been asked that two or three times lately. 206 00:17:04.440 --> 00:17:06.160 And I've just told people, I said, you know, at 207 00:17:06.160 --> 00:17:08.759 this point, the brown circles are going to green up 208 00:17:08.799 --> 00:17:10.519 real quick because it's going to warm up and the 209 00:17:10.519 --> 00:17:13.119 grass will grow back in. I would leave it. I 210 00:17:13.119 --> 00:17:15.599 don't like to put out any kind of a pest 211 00:17:15.640 --> 00:17:20.079 control of any type we'ed disease or insect when I 212 00:17:20.119 --> 00:17:24.039 don't have to. That's just I don't like to garden 213 00:17:24.079 --> 00:17:27.920 that way. So let's hold off on that one. There's 214 00:17:27.960 --> 00:17:31.880 good information on weed control, and we are at the 215 00:17:32.039 --> 00:17:35.680 end of the preferred season for weed control. Now you 216 00:17:35.720 --> 00:17:39.559 may think, okay, well, it's you know, I've missed the 217 00:17:39.640 --> 00:17:42.920 time when I should have put weed control down, so 218 00:17:43.119 --> 00:17:45.000 I can't do it now. And the entries, Yeah, you 219 00:17:45.000 --> 00:17:47.559 can do it now. There's weeds that still will be 220 00:17:47.680 --> 00:17:50.440 germinating if you want to do that. It's just on 221 00:17:50.480 --> 00:17:53.480 the schedule I put the best time, because if I 222 00:17:53.599 --> 00:17:56.920 extended it all the way, let's say through March, some 223 00:17:56.960 --> 00:17:59.319 people would think, well, I can fertilize. I can do 224 00:17:59.359 --> 00:18:01.480 that in March. I don't have to do it in February. Well, 225 00:18:01.519 --> 00:18:03.200 if you waited until March, there's gonna be a lot 226 00:18:03.240 --> 00:18:06.240 of weeds that have already germinated. You may control some 227 00:18:06.440 --> 00:18:10.359 going forward grassburg and germinate all summer, for example, and 228 00:18:10.400 --> 00:18:16.400 so can crab grass. But that's how that schedule works, 229 00:18:16.440 --> 00:18:18.960 and I hope you'll follow that. Take a look at it, 230 00:18:19.039 --> 00:18:21.400 print it out. Some people put it in the garage. 231 00:18:22.000 --> 00:18:23.960 You can take it with your shop and then point 232 00:18:24.000 --> 00:18:25.920 at the product you want when you go where you go. 233 00:18:26.839 --> 00:18:30.400 Hopefully that's helpful. For example, a good place to go 234 00:18:30.519 --> 00:18:32.880 be D and D feed and Tomball west of Tombo 235 00:18:33.039 --> 00:18:37.079 actually on twenty nine to twenty. The Dover family opened 236 00:18:37.119 --> 00:18:39.599 D and D feed Back in nineteen eighty nine, and 237 00:18:39.839 --> 00:18:43.759 the place just gets better the recent expansion they did. 238 00:18:43.920 --> 00:18:47.000 I just opened the door for more product. And every 239 00:18:47.000 --> 00:18:49.200 time I go in there, I'm really impressed with the 240 00:18:49.240 --> 00:18:52.759 line of product that they carry. They have nitroposs, they 241 00:18:52.759 --> 00:18:57.000 have Nelson, they have heirloom soils for example in Microlife, 242 00:18:57.559 --> 00:19:02.559 Nelson's turf Star also products there. There's just some examples 243 00:19:02.839 --> 00:19:06.119 quality dog food too. I always take my dogs a 244 00:19:06.160 --> 00:19:08.000 treat when I go in there, to bring them home 245 00:19:08.039 --> 00:19:11.400 a treat. And if you need to control any kinds 246 00:19:11.440 --> 00:19:14.119 of rodents and things around the house, pool cleaners, I mean, 247 00:19:14.119 --> 00:19:15.720 all of that is there at D and D Feed, 248 00:19:15.960 --> 00:19:18.720 But when it comes to the garden section of controlling 249 00:19:18.759 --> 00:19:22.039 pest weeds and diseases, they have a very extensive selection 250 00:19:22.480 --> 00:19:24.960 and there's things that they'll carry that most places don't. 251 00:19:25.400 --> 00:19:27.920 D and D feed three miles west of Tomboll two 252 00:19:28.000 --> 00:19:33.559 eight one three five one seventy one forty four. Uh 253 00:19:33.920 --> 00:19:38.480 I was talking about, you know, preferences and how we 254 00:19:38.519 --> 00:19:41.880 garden in things. Something occurred to me a good while back, 255 00:19:42.119 --> 00:19:44.359 and I don't think I say this enough, but uh 256 00:19:44.559 --> 00:19:48.480 I do lectures on organic gardening, do trainings and stuff 257 00:19:48.480 --> 00:19:51.279 for master gardener groups and others, and one thing I 258 00:19:51.279 --> 00:19:53.640 always say at the beginning is if you are not 259 00:19:53.759 --> 00:19:57.279 an organic gardener, you should do everything organic gardeners do. 260 00:19:58.119 --> 00:20:00.559 And then if you're going to use your synthetic pestae side, okay, 261 00:20:00.880 --> 00:20:03.920 that's your option, that's your yard, how you're going to garden. 262 00:20:04.480 --> 00:20:08.240 But all the principles of organic gardening hold true for 263 00:20:08.359 --> 00:20:11.000 any kind of gardening. Take care of the soil, build 264 00:20:11.079 --> 00:20:15.400 the soil, improve the soil, enhance the microbial content, make 265 00:20:15.440 --> 00:20:19.039 sure there's oxygen done in the root system. Organic gardening 266 00:20:19.039 --> 00:20:21.000 began in the soil and that is still the heart 267 00:20:21.000 --> 00:20:24.480 of organic gardening. It's not just using organic products to 268 00:20:24.599 --> 00:20:28.519 kill bugs or kill diseases, in other words, organic pesticides. 269 00:20:29.319 --> 00:20:34.000 Microlife is designed around that concept. Over thirty five years now, 270 00:20:34.559 --> 00:20:38.759 gardeners and landscape professionals have recognized the value of microlife 271 00:20:39.079 --> 00:20:42.039 and every bag you buy of whether it is there 272 00:20:42.079 --> 00:20:45.359 six 't four the primary the product that we use 273 00:20:45.400 --> 00:20:49.799 for lawn fertilizing, or if it is humants plus, that 274 00:20:49.960 --> 00:20:53.759 is another one that's got the soil in mind when 275 00:20:53.799 --> 00:20:55.960 you put it out. And the humants plus is something 276 00:20:56.000 --> 00:20:57.799 you can put out any year, any time of year, 277 00:20:57.839 --> 00:21:01.000 as much as you want, because you're just adding more 278 00:21:01.079 --> 00:21:03.680 humus as you do that to the soil. It is 279 00:21:03.680 --> 00:21:07.920 a purple bag. And so I encourage you this spring 280 00:21:08.799 --> 00:21:12.720 as you're putting out your fertilizations consider adding a microlife 281 00:21:12.759 --> 00:21:17.440 humates plus to your mix. Both the fertilizers for microlife 282 00:21:17.480 --> 00:21:20.319 and certainly the humates plus and are going to just 283 00:21:20.359 --> 00:21:22.440 help with the soil. And that's what it's all about. 284 00:21:22.599 --> 00:21:25.559 The soil. So As I said, whether you're an organic 285 00:21:25.599 --> 00:21:29.160 gardener or not, taking care of the soil is foundational 286 00:21:29.400 --> 00:21:34.799 to gardening. And I guess I'm a broken record. What 287 00:21:34.839 --> 00:21:37.160 do I always say brown stuff before green stuff. What 288 00:21:37.200 --> 00:21:40.480 does that mean? Get the foundation right, the foundations of soil. 289 00:21:41.240 --> 00:21:44.319 All right, Well, I could just talk about that all 290 00:21:44.400 --> 00:21:47.960 day if you like. But I don't think. I don't 291 00:21:48.000 --> 00:21:50.440 think that's what you want me to do. But I 292 00:21:50.480 --> 00:21:54.160 will repeat it frequently because it is so so important. 293 00:21:54.920 --> 00:21:59.119 Don't PLoP a poor plant into an unprepared plot, or 294 00:21:59.200 --> 00:22:03.960 you will be disappointed. All right, Well, if you'd like 295 00:22:04.000 --> 00:22:06.000 to give me a call, seven one three two one 296 00:22:06.079 --> 00:22:10.079 two KTRH. Seven one three two one two KTRH. And 297 00:22:10.160 --> 00:22:12.519 I had somebody take me to task yesterday down at 298 00:22:12.559 --> 00:22:16.359 Jorges Uh, and she said, why don't you just give 299 00:22:16.400 --> 00:22:18.640 the number. I don't have to look around through the 300 00:22:18.720 --> 00:22:21.599 letters on the keypad, and some keep ads don't have letters. 301 00:22:21.599 --> 00:22:24.319 All right here it is seven one three two one 302 00:22:24.359 --> 00:22:27.759 two fifty eight seventy four. I'll give it both ways. 303 00:22:28.400 --> 00:22:30.440 I'll try to remember to give it both ways, fifty 304 00:22:30.480 --> 00:22:32.799 eight seventy four. Either way, you can give me a call, 305 00:22:33.039 --> 00:22:35.319 and we will talk about the things that are most 306 00:22:35.440 --> 00:22:40.440 of interest to you. I was driving Every time I 307 00:22:40.480 --> 00:22:42.880 go somewhere, I try to get off the beaten path 308 00:22:42.920 --> 00:22:46.519 and drive through neighborhoods. Drive through the countryside just to 309 00:22:46.599 --> 00:22:49.480 see things, you know, that aren't on the interstate, so 310 00:22:49.519 --> 00:22:54.279 to speak. And going through neighborhoods, I see things and 311 00:22:54.359 --> 00:22:56.400 I get ideas. You know, It's like, look how they 312 00:22:56.400 --> 00:22:58.839 did that. I had never thought about using that plant 313 00:22:58.880 --> 00:23:02.400 in that way or whatever. Well, a good landscape designer 314 00:23:02.519 --> 00:23:04.359 they know how to design, they know how to make 315 00:23:04.400 --> 00:23:07.599 it pretty and all that. I'm not a designer. I 316 00:23:07.640 --> 00:23:10.519 am a plant collector, and I suspect a lot of 317 00:23:10.559 --> 00:23:12.440 you are too. We go to garden centers, we see 318 00:23:12.440 --> 00:23:14.200 a plant, we like, we buy it, We take it home, 319 00:23:14.240 --> 00:23:16.000 and then figure out where we're going to put it. 320 00:23:16.440 --> 00:23:18.759 And so our gardens look like a bomb went off 321 00:23:18.920 --> 00:23:22.680 in a garden center. Our landscapes do bomb went off 322 00:23:22.680 --> 00:23:25.240 in a garden center, and where everything landed, it rooted 323 00:23:25.279 --> 00:23:29.039 and grew there. It's random. If you want to have 324 00:23:29.079 --> 00:23:31.720 a professionally done landscape, pierscapes can do that. I talk 325 00:23:31.759 --> 00:23:35.119 about them all the time. They're a preferred landscaper. Pure 326 00:23:35.240 --> 00:23:38.839 scapes can do pretty much anything you need out in 327 00:23:39.119 --> 00:23:44.079 the yard and landscape, things like hardscapes, walkways, stone walkways, 328 00:23:44.519 --> 00:23:47.559 landscape lighting, irrigation types, of work. By the way, they 329 00:23:47.599 --> 00:23:51.160 also have their quarterly maintenance. A quarterly maintenance. They come 330 00:23:51.200 --> 00:23:55.599 out every three months and they weed. They if they 331 00:23:55.599 --> 00:23:57.759 need to replace the flowers in the bed to make 332 00:23:57.839 --> 00:23:59.880 you know, we've changed seasons, we need some good fresh 333 00:24:00.079 --> 00:24:02.240 up in there, they can do that. They make sure 334 00:24:02.240 --> 00:24:04.000 the irrigation in the bed is working. They put a 335 00:24:04.000 --> 00:24:06.480 good layer of bulch down, make sure it's replenished and 336 00:24:06.519 --> 00:24:09.640 looking good. That's part of their maintenance program. But you 337 00:24:09.680 --> 00:24:12.359 can have them come out do a complete design for 338 00:24:12.440 --> 00:24:15.880 you whatever you want to do. Go to the website. 339 00:24:16.160 --> 00:24:20.400 Go to the website piercescapes dot com, piercescapes dot com, 340 00:24:20.519 --> 00:24:22.880 or give them a call two eight one three seven 341 00:24:23.160 --> 00:24:27.160 fifty sixty two eight one three seven oh five zero 342 00:24:27.759 --> 00:24:32.559 six zero. Go to that website perscapes dot com. You know, 343 00:24:33.079 --> 00:24:35.119 every time I go there, I look and I get 344 00:24:35.160 --> 00:24:39.799 ideas too for my yard because they make it look 345 00:24:40.039 --> 00:24:43.160 so beautiful. It's like, oh wow, I could do that 346 00:24:43.319 --> 00:24:46.119 in a patio. I hadn't thought about that kind of 347 00:24:46.160 --> 00:24:49.960 having that kind of a patio put in that's beautiful. Well, 348 00:24:50.599 --> 00:24:53.240 of course they're beautiful. They're professionals into what they're doing 349 00:24:55.759 --> 00:24:59.200 in the garden.

Growth rather 532 00:35:05.639 --> 00:35:08.199 than pruning a, pair just get a branch spreader and 533 00:35:08.960 --> 00:35:12.079 or a steak and cord and pull the branches in 534 00:35:12.159 --> 00:35:16.079 about a forty five degree angle outward and avoid that 535 00:35:16.159 --> 00:35:19.800 pruning and then avoid fertilizing pairs of. Nitrogen you just 536 00:35:19.960 --> 00:35:22.760 don't need to do. It and the more you make, 537 00:35:22.800 --> 00:35:26.480 it you, know grow fast and, stuff the worse the 538 00:35:26.480 --> 00:35:29.920 fire blight's going to. Be when you see, fireblight go 539 00:35:29.920 --> 00:35:32.079 go about six inches below where you see it and 540 00:35:32.239 --> 00:35:34.960 snip that. Out just cut that branch because it's dying. 541 00:35:35.000 --> 00:35:38.840 Already cut it, out and then spray your pruners with 542 00:35:38.960 --> 00:35:43.079 lysol between cuts so you don't spread bacteria to the 543 00:35:43.119 --> 00:35:46.280 next branch you're going to go prune. On those are 544 00:35:46.320 --> 00:35:49.039 those are the tips that are give you the best. 545 00:35:49.079 --> 00:35:52.519 Shot some, years it's just bad and all you can 546 00:35:52.559 --> 00:35:53.719 do is lessen it a little. 547 00:35:53.719 --> 00:35:57.840 Bit, okay we'll serve and follow that.

Call 600 00:38:38.000 --> 00:38:40.400 another thing going on at this time of the year 601 00:38:41.039 --> 00:38:46.840 is taking care of those weeds that are winter, weeds 602 00:38:46.880 --> 00:38:49.880 but now they're growing like, crazy and they're blooming and 603 00:38:49.880 --> 00:38:53.599 they're setting. Seed the path that a blue bonnet seed 604 00:38:53.639 --> 00:38:56.519 takes on the roadside is the path the winter weeds 605 00:38:56.519 --> 00:39:00.280 in your lawn, take sprouting in the, fall sitting pretty 606 00:39:00.320 --> 00:39:03.800 much unnoticeable in the, winter very small, plants and then 607 00:39:03.880 --> 00:39:07.000 in spring they take off growing and here come the, 608 00:39:07.000 --> 00:39:10.159 blooms and then they fling the seeds. Everywhere you want 609 00:39:10.199 --> 00:39:13.599 to stop that last, step and if it means you've 610 00:39:13.599 --> 00:39:15.039 got a few weeks to squa out in, hand pull. 611 00:39:15.079 --> 00:39:18.320 Them it's not that difficult to. Do with the, soils 612 00:39:18.360 --> 00:39:20.840 moist and get them out of, there because one weed 613 00:39:21.320 --> 00:39:25.360 can produce hundreds of, seed literally it really. Can and 614 00:39:25.400 --> 00:39:28.679 so if you if you look at the ability of 615 00:39:28.719 --> 00:39:31.639 the weed to, reproduce choosing to not deal with it 616 00:39:31.679 --> 00:39:34.559 now means it's going to be harder next next. Fall 617 00:39:34.599 --> 00:39:36.519 you can use a pre emergent in the fall to stop. 618 00:39:36.679 --> 00:39:39.559 That we'll talk about that when the time, comes but 619 00:39:39.840 --> 00:39:42.119 getting them out of the garden is. Important you can 620 00:39:42.239 --> 00:39:46.239 use a post emergent product to attack. Them for, example 621 00:39:46.760 --> 00:39:50.440 you know the folks At nitrofoss create a product that 622 00:39:50.719 --> 00:39:54.480 is Called. Imperial it is a red and orange bag 623 00:39:54.559 --> 00:39:58.800 that's just fertilizer for early green. Utworks it just makes 624 00:39:58.800 --> 00:40:01.679 the nutrients right right then available to the. Plant but 625 00:40:01.719 --> 00:40:03.440 they also have a version of it that's in a 626 00:40:03.440 --> 00:40:07.239 bag with a trimec And trimec is a broad leaf weed. 627 00:40:07.320 --> 00:40:09.199 Killer you can use. That if you want to use, 628 00:40:09.199 --> 00:40:11.679 that you just have to have wet weed leaves in 629 00:40:11.800 --> 00:40:14.440 order for the product to stick to. Them but the 630 00:40:14.559 --> 00:40:19.559 later we, get the less well that a post emergent 631 00:40:19.559 --> 00:40:22.199 herbicide is going to work on. Weeds once they're, reproductive 632 00:40:22.239 --> 00:40:26.599 they've got, seed they've got you, know blooming and setting, 633 00:40:26.639 --> 00:40:29.360 seed it's less. Effective and that's where you go back 634 00:40:29.360 --> 00:40:31.480 to the hand. Pulling if you want to get it. 635 00:40:31.480 --> 00:40:33.360 Now if you got a yard full of, weeds when 636 00:40:33.360 --> 00:40:35.719 you set that mower down to do your first low 637 00:40:35.800 --> 00:40:39.320 mowing of the, season put a bag on it and 638 00:40:39.440 --> 00:40:42.239 catch the clippings and the weeds that were sticking their 639 00:40:42.280 --> 00:40:44.320 head up producing, seed and get as many as you 640 00:40:44.400 --> 00:40:49.480 can out of the. Place that is. Important, Okay so that, 641 00:40:49.519 --> 00:40:52.599 MOWING i don't know if, yeah there is one at 642 00:40:52.639 --> 00:40:55.280 a time When i'd recommend bagging, clippings and that's when 643 00:40:55.719 --> 00:40:58.280 you have gotten away and it's rained and rain and, 644 00:40:58.360 --> 00:41:02.639 rained and it is so the clippings are so long 645 00:41:02.679 --> 00:41:04.679 that you just can't mulch them. In that'd be a 646 00:41:04.679 --> 00:41:07.679 time for back but the. Weeds get those seeds out 647 00:41:07.800 --> 00:41:12.480 of the. Yard, now the number one weed control is 648 00:41:12.559 --> 00:41:16.159 not a. Product the number one weed control is a, 649 00:41:16.199 --> 00:41:22.079 dense healthy. Lawn that's where you.

Air the morning started kind of, 894 00:55:52.280 --> 00:55:55.639 slow AND i think it's because people are still waking. 895 00:55:55.760 --> 00:55:58.719 Up, YES i WISH i was still, asleep But i'm. 896 00:55:58.719 --> 00:56:02.679 Not but my question two THINGS i. Have Number, ONE 897 00:56:02.840 --> 00:56:05.119 i have all these areas in my front yard that 898 00:56:05.440 --> 00:56:08.159 have no grass. Growing what DO i do to the 899 00:56:08.239 --> 00:56:12.800 soil BEFORE i buy some grass to put on? 900 00:56:12.840 --> 00:56:17.480 Them, well depending on what condition your soil is. In you, 901 00:56:17.480 --> 00:56:19.639 know if it's heavy clay and you want to mix 902 00:56:19.679 --> 00:56:21.960 in a little bit of a blend with a little 903 00:56:22.039 --> 00:56:25.440 organic matter in, IT i would definitely do. Leveling right. 904 00:56:25.480 --> 00:56:27.760 Now there are some mixes you can put out to 905 00:56:27.760 --> 00:56:30.599 fill low. Spots if you got roots that are sticking 906 00:56:30.679 --> 00:56:33.519 up you're tripping, over you, know bring the soil up 907 00:56:33.559 --> 00:56:36.360 around those as. Well just kind of get all that. 908 00:56:36.519 --> 00:56:41.119 Right if you have any perennial, weeds then you definitely 909 00:56:41.159 --> 00:56:43.199 need to spray those and get rid of them before 910 00:56:43.280 --> 00:56:45.199 you put your grass in because a lot of them 911 00:56:45.199 --> 00:56:46.079 will just come up through the. 912 00:56:46.119 --> 00:56:49.519 Grass, okay and then you've already mentioned. 913 00:56:49.519 --> 00:56:53.360 THIS i have heavy gumbo soil clay soil in the, 914 00:56:53.400 --> 00:56:56.480 back AND i want to plant, things but it's like. 915 00:56:58.320 --> 00:57:01.519 So heavy to even what SHOULD i mix with that 916 00:57:01.679 --> 00:57:02.599 and make it. 917 00:57:02.679 --> 00:57:05.400 Better clay cell is a tricky, thing you. Know if 918 00:57:05.400 --> 00:57:07.400 it's too wet and you try to work it like 919 00:57:07.440 --> 00:57:10.840 with a, rototiller just as an, example it just really 920 00:57:10.880 --> 00:57:13.599 destroys the soil. Structure it's not. Good and if it's too, 921 00:57:13.679 --> 00:57:16.480 dry it's like. Concrete and so you got to catch 922 00:57:16.519 --> 00:57:19.239 it at the right moisture content to be able to 923 00:57:19.280 --> 00:57:22.960 do much to. It but don't forget that even just 924 00:57:23.079 --> 00:57:26.519 a clay soil grass will grow in. That because we'll 925 00:57:26.559 --> 00:57:30.039 think about. This the soil growers down along The Gulf 926 00:57:30.079 --> 00:57:33.159 coast area, here they grow in a clay. SOIL a 927 00:57:33.159 --> 00:57:36.199 lot of them. Do and so when when that grass comes, 928 00:57:36.199 --> 00:57:39.760 in you probably have noticed like a black clay underneath, 929 00:57:39.760 --> 00:57:42.360 it and they just had sliced that off from the. 930 00:57:42.400 --> 00:57:45.840 Field so they're not growing in composty. Soil they're growing 931 00:57:46.119 --> 00:57:48.079 in a, clay and so grass can be. 932 00:57:48.199 --> 00:57:49.519 This is WHERE i want to put. 933 00:57:49.760 --> 00:57:54.679 Plants so oh a, plant, okay, yes, okay that's. Easy 934 00:57:54.840 --> 00:57:58.800 get a good quality, mix a quality, mix and mix 935 00:57:58.880 --> 00:58:01.239 it a little bit with the clay if you. CAN 936 00:58:01.559 --> 00:58:04.960 i like to not have a sudden transition from wonderful 937 00:58:05.000 --> 00:58:08.360 soil just to a solid pie right and then and 938 00:58:08.440 --> 00:58:10.800 then continue to fill it. Up make a raised bed 939 00:58:11.159 --> 00:58:15.039 so you know you got good. Drainage so even when it's, rainy, rainy, 940 00:58:15.079 --> 00:58:17.960 soggy the plant roots some of them at least are 941 00:58:18.039 --> 00:58:20.920 up there in the. Bed and that that's WHAT i 942 00:58:20.960 --> 00:58:24.159 would do for preparing for. Plants and there's a lot 943 00:58:24.159 --> 00:58:26.360 of good bed. Mixes for most. Plants you could just 944 00:58:26.480 --> 00:58:31.400 use a rose soil and rose soil a lot of 945 00:58:31.440 --> 00:58:34.719 things in.

Quote someone asked me about as 1029 01:03:10.760 --> 01:03:13.719 mite too. Yesterday they were just trying to figure out 1030 01:03:13.760 --> 01:03:15.519 what so what is? That and DO i use it 1031 01:03:16.119 --> 01:03:20.000 instead of my fertilizer or? Whatever, no your fertilizers put 1032 01:03:20.039 --> 01:03:23.800 in the big macro nutrients typically organics are going to 1033 01:03:23.880 --> 01:03:25.760 have some of, it a little bit of everything in. 1034 01:03:25.760 --> 01:03:31.239 Them asamite is designed in mind from In. Utah it 1035 01:03:31.320 --> 01:03:34.639 is designed to put down as a trace mineral, supplement 1036 01:03:34.960 --> 01:03:37.239 so you don't use as much of. It but you 1037 01:03:37.280 --> 01:03:40.440 can do the azomite in springtime the fall, time doing 1038 01:03:40.480 --> 01:03:43.440 both if you, want and provide those minerals that are 1039 01:03:43.480 --> 01:03:46.519 required for a plant to grow but aren't needed in large. 1040 01:03:46.599 --> 01:03:49.480 Quantities when you put azimite, down it doesn't make your 1041 01:03:49.559 --> 01:03:53.079 long term. Green it puts nutrients that the plant has 1042 01:03:53.159 --> 01:03:56.679 to have in the bank account and your other fertilizers 1043 01:03:56.679 --> 01:04:00.000 making your law term. Green asamite make sure that when 1044 01:04:00.000 --> 01:04:02.400 and it tries to grow because of all that, fertilizer 1045 01:04:02.800 --> 01:04:05.840 that it has everything it needs because without micros you 1046 01:04:06.000 --> 01:04:08.679 can't grow a. PLANT i even say use it in 1047 01:04:08.719 --> 01:04:11.440 a vegetable. Garden about ten pounds per thousands square. Feet 1048 01:04:11.639 --> 01:04:15.360 you can go to Azamite texas dot com Asimite texas 1049 01:04:15.480 --> 01:04:19.079 dot com and you can find out a lot about 1050 01:04:19.079 --> 01:04:20.559 it if you'd like to do. That, now where do 1051 01:04:20.599 --> 01:04:23.159 you find? It, Well i've seen it in a lot 1052 01:04:23.159 --> 01:04:26.519 Of a's hardware, stores a Certainly southwest. Fertilizer i've seen 1053 01:04:26.519 --> 01:04:28.719 it on pretty much all the garden CENTERS i go, 1054 01:04:28.800 --> 01:04:32.719 into and a lot of the feed stores also carry 1055 01:04:32.719 --> 01:04:36.280 the asamite because they know people want it and it 1056 01:04:36.360 --> 01:04:41.880 works as simple as. That, well one word about applying, 1057 01:04:41.920 --> 01:04:44.000 Things this just kind of occurred to me with. Azimite 1058 01:04:44.679 --> 01:04:48.679 different things we apply to our lawn have different particle. 1059 01:04:48.719 --> 01:04:54.679 Sizes you, know organic fertilizers often have a larger particle, 1060 01:04:54.760 --> 01:04:59.400 size not, always but. Often then there's the regular fertilizers 1061 01:04:59.440 --> 01:05:02.599 that have a you, know good sized, particles and so 1062 01:05:02.960 --> 01:05:05.599 when you put them, out you have to open the 1063 01:05:06.519 --> 01:05:11.000 little drop door on your spreader to allow them to 1064 01:05:11.000 --> 01:05:13.400 get through there and get. Out when you look at 1065 01:05:13.400 --> 01:05:16.719 things like azemite and, barricade those are real small, granules 1066 01:05:16.800 --> 01:05:21.840 and so you are basically you are, basically you, know 1067 01:05:22.079 --> 01:05:25.440 closing that door down a lot so you don't over apply. 1068 01:05:25.559 --> 01:05:29.000 Them so you never want to mix those kinds of. 1069 01:05:29.039 --> 01:05:33.119 Products i'll use azemite and barricades to examples into your 1070 01:05:33.119 --> 01:05:35.800 fertilizer hopper and then put it out with your. Fertilizer 1071 01:05:36.000 --> 01:05:39.079 and the reason is that you won't get an even. 1072 01:05:39.119 --> 01:05:43.199 Distribution and so WHAT i would recommend is do your 1073 01:05:43.199 --> 01:05:47.960 fertilization and then do your azemite or barricade that you're gonna, 1074 01:05:48.000 --> 01:05:51.400 do or vice, versa but just do it in two separate. 1075 01:05:51.519 --> 01:05:56.199 Passes also with those small, things sometimes it's hard to 1076 01:05:56.519 --> 01:05:59.159 know exactly how much you're putting out in the. Spreader 1077 01:05:59.199 --> 01:06:03.559 settings don't always you, know just really jive in terms 1078 01:06:03.559 --> 01:06:06.440 of being really. ACCURATE i found, that and SO i 1079 01:06:06.480 --> 01:06:11.400 will go to the lowest possible setting for that product 1080 01:06:11.400 --> 01:06:14.079 that you're putting. Out and Now i'll even shrink it 1081 01:06:14.119 --> 01:06:15.880 down just a little, bit And i'll put it out 1082 01:06:15.920 --> 01:06:18.880 going north, south and then i'll put it out going east. 1083 01:06:18.960 --> 01:06:22.920 West And i'm trying to avoid getting halfway through the 1084 01:06:22.960 --> 01:06:25.920 lawn and all the product's. Gone SO i double, dosed you, 1085 01:06:25.960 --> 01:06:28.000 know part of the, lawn AND i didn't dose it 1086 01:06:28.000 --> 01:06:30.320 all the other. Part and double dosing and things are 1087 01:06:30.360 --> 01:06:33.519 not a good, idea especially with products to control. Weeds 1088 01:06:33.920 --> 01:06:36.320 SO i will do it that, Way and that's kind 1089 01:06:36.360 --> 01:06:39.320 of hedging your. Bet that's being conservative to make sure 1090 01:06:39.519 --> 01:06:41.679 because you can always when you, finish if you've got some, 1091 01:06:41.840 --> 01:06:44.119 left all you got to do is go back over it. 1092 01:06:44.159 --> 01:06:46.559 Again maybe open the door a little. More makes it. 1093 01:06:46.599 --> 01:06:50.159 Easy so here here's a quick tip that those of 1094 01:06:50.159 --> 01:06:53.000 you who have a spreader and you have a product 1095 01:06:53.079 --> 01:06:55.760 and you don't know what to. Do you can't find 1096 01:06:56.400 --> 01:06:59.880 your spreader on the product bag or vice. Versa any, 1097 01:07:00.079 --> 01:07:04.480 way on walk behind, spreaders if you go to wherever 1098 01:07:04.760 --> 01:07:08.519 the middle number is and move it up a notch 1099 01:07:08.719 --> 01:07:13.400 or two above half for, fertilizer that's for. Fertilizer so 1100 01:07:13.440 --> 01:07:16.480 if there are twenty notches on the, spreader you'd set 1101 01:07:16.519 --> 01:07:19.760 it on eleven or. Twelve that's one or two above the. Middle, 1102 01:07:20.119 --> 01:07:25.840 okay that's for. Fertilizer for pre emergent, herbicides small, particles, Right, 1103 01:07:26.199 --> 01:07:29.199 okay you want to on a walk behind, spreader you 1104 01:07:29.239 --> 01:07:32.360 want to put it a notch above one. Quarter so 1105 01:07:32.679 --> 01:07:36.760 using the twenty notch, example one fourth of twenty is, 1106 01:07:36.800 --> 01:07:39.519 five and maybe you can go five or six for the. 1107 01:07:39.599 --> 01:07:43.360 Setting but AGAIN i would seriously consider even going a 1108 01:07:43.400 --> 01:07:46.760 little bit lower and then being ready to come crossways 1109 01:07:46.840 --> 01:07:50.480 across it for better uniformity and also to avoid over. 1110 01:07:50.519 --> 01:07:56.400 Applying and then so that's that's for pre emergent small particle. Things, 1111 01:07:56.679 --> 01:08:01.679 OKAY i hope that helps that else it makes it 1112 01:08:01.719 --> 01:08:05.639 makes sense to, ME i NEED i need to add 1113 01:08:05.679 --> 01:08:08.000 that to the. Website that would be a good thing 1114 01:08:08.280 --> 01:08:11.760 to put up. There let's, see we are just about 1115 01:08:11.800 --> 01:08:13.679 to hit another.

Blend nesting 1325 01:19:25.680 --> 01:19:29.520 super blend has that essential protein the birds eat and 1326 01:19:29.600 --> 01:19:32.399 it also has calcium in. It, now calcium is, important 1327 01:19:32.439 --> 01:19:34.880 of course for the skeleton development of the, bird but 1328 01:19:34.960 --> 01:19:37.239 when they're laying, eggs they have a greater need for 1329 01:19:37.319 --> 01:19:40.720 calcium than other animals do because they're producing the. Eggshells 1330 01:19:40.960 --> 01:19:43.720 so in the spring we're in nesting season now and 1331 01:19:43.840 --> 01:19:46.520 in the, summertime which can also be nesting season for some. 1332 01:19:46.640 --> 01:19:51.680 Species the nesting super blend is the outstanding bird seed to, 1333 01:19:51.760 --> 01:19:55.720 do and it is high.

Know sometimes the wabbirds has things called no mess, 1338 01:20:07.279 --> 01:20:10.920 blends which mean that sunflowers don't even have shells on 1339 01:20:10.960 --> 01:20:14.600 them like.

Things, so, uh you can cut, off you, 1481 01:28:52.880 --> 01:28:54.920 know as big a limb as you. Want but at some, 1482 01:28:55.039 --> 01:28:58.399 point when you're cutting off a limb that's you, know really, 1483 01:28:58.520 --> 01:29:01.079 large it's never going to heal over in the life 1484 01:29:01.079 --> 01:29:04.680 of that, tree, probably but way before it heals, over 1485 01:29:05.199 --> 01:29:08.319 the wood that's exposed will with moisture and rain and 1486 01:29:08.319 --> 01:29:10.479 stuff start to, rot and then you end up with 1487 01:29:10.880 --> 01:29:13.479 an interior. Decay that happens on a lot of. Trees 1488 01:29:13.920 --> 01:29:17.079 so the main thing is make the cut where it. 1489 01:29:17.119 --> 01:29:19.399 BELONGS i had one of the THINGS i sent you 1490 01:29:19.439 --> 01:29:22.560 showed how to make a three point cut a three 1491 01:29:22.600 --> 01:29:26.159 point cut and doing it that, way cutting in the right, 1492 01:29:26.199 --> 01:29:29.319 place leaving the branch. Collar you don't need to paint the. 1493 01:29:29.399 --> 01:29:32.640 Cut that's probably the best. WAY i didn't realize you 1494 01:29:32.640 --> 01:29:36.279 had access to.

GOOD i would try to avoid 1503 01:30:08.079 --> 01:30:11.600 cutting a branch off where you're just leaving the end 1504 01:30:11.800 --> 01:30:14.960 stump of the, branch like if you make a, fist 1505 01:30:15.039 --> 01:30:17.680 your arm is the branch and it just ends in a. 1506 01:30:17.760 --> 01:30:20.039 Stump if you can find a place where a good 1507 01:30:20.039 --> 01:30:24.119 sized branch goes off from, it then and it needs 1508 01:30:24.119 --> 01:30:27.319 to be you, know reasonably, close maybe a third the 1509 01:30:27.399 --> 01:30:31.159 size or, bigger maybe better half the size of the 1510 01:30:31.199 --> 01:30:34.359 branch you're cutting it off. Of that's. Better that's called 1511 01:30:34.359 --> 01:30:36.359 a thinning, cut and it's better to go that.

Rows you, know it's like a, triangle and 2113 02:02:34.680 --> 02:02:38.119 one triangle is right side, up one's upside down the next. 2114 02:02:38.159 --> 02:02:39.760 One if you just kind of picture that in your, 2115 02:02:39.840 --> 02:02:43.239 mind and that makes a, nice nice mix in when you. 2116 02:02:43.359 --> 02:02:46.279 Do if you think about the mature size of what you're, 2117 02:02:46.319 --> 02:02:51.399 planting you can put things about eighty, percent even a 2118 02:02:51.560 --> 02:02:55.239 little closer together in the. Bed the closer you, plant 2119 02:02:55.560 --> 02:02:59.359 the more instantly you get. Coverage BUT i like to 2120 02:02:59.439 --> 02:03:02.560 go about eighty. Percent if you don't want the plants 2121 02:03:02.680 --> 02:03:05.680 to be overlapping a, little then you can go beyond 2122 02:03:06.000 --> 02:03:10.119 that natural mature. Size but that's a good role of. 2123 02:03:10.159 --> 02:03:12.279 Thumb that's also a good role of thumb for shrubs 2124 02:03:12.760 --> 02:03:16.520 and things like. That for, example if you have a, 2125 02:03:16.640 --> 02:03:19.000 hedge you're going to plant a. Hedge you're going to 2126 02:03:19.119 --> 02:03:21.560 use your opond or the gustroum or something to plant a. Hedge, 2127 02:03:21.920 --> 02:03:24.520 well look at how big they get and plant them 2128 02:03:24.600 --> 02:03:27.119 about eighty percent if you want to save money on 2129 02:03:27.199 --> 02:03:30.640 a few, plants or go to fifty percent if you 2130 02:03:30.760 --> 02:03:33.800 want to get a nice hedge a little bit. Faster, 2131 02:03:34.199 --> 02:03:36.039 OKAY i BELIEVE i got a call here in just 2132 02:03:36.159 --> 02:03:39.640 a few minutes to take. It So i'll go to that. 2133 02:03:39.800 --> 02:03:42.399 Call you'll hang on just for one. Second so that 2134 02:03:43.000 --> 02:03:45.439 kind of spacing kind of gives you a rough. Idea, 2135 02:03:45.680 --> 02:03:51.840 now ANYTIME i, generalize there's things that are not that 2136 02:03:51.960 --> 02:03:55.399 it doesn't apply. To, okay some plants are very slow, 2137 02:03:55.479 --> 02:03:58.119 growing and we plant those closer just because we want 2138 02:03:58.199 --> 02:04:01.319 it to fill in. Faster, well let's go To craig 2139 02:04:01.479 --> 02:04:03.720 out in Clear lake now and we'll finish up this 2140 02:04:03.800 --> 02:04:08.439 segment with. Him Hey, Craig, hey how are?

Good how can we help? 2142 02:04:10.319 --> 02:04:13.600 Today WHEN i moved into my, HOUSE i had a 2143 02:04:13.640 --> 02:04:19.439 Beautiful Saint augustine. Lawn now the trees behind me have 2144 02:04:19.680 --> 02:04:22.279 grown in and my lawn doesn't get a lot of. 2145 02:04:22.439 --> 02:04:27.720 Sunshine i've replanted The Saint augustine and it. Doesn't it 2146 02:04:27.880 --> 02:04:30.520 lasts a, while but then it fades. Away and my 2147 02:04:30.680 --> 02:04:34.159 question is is there a better ground cover THAT i 2148 02:04:34.279 --> 02:04:37.880 can plant that will be more tolerant to less. 2149 02:04:37.920 --> 02:04:42.920 Sunlight, well there, are and every, plant like every, person 2150 02:04:43.039 --> 02:04:47.319 has its pros and. Cons, okay so a few groundcovers 2151 02:04:47.439 --> 02:04:50.600 that look well look good in a considerable amount of 2152 02:04:50.680 --> 02:04:52.960 shade if they get the blast of the hot afternoon. 2153 02:04:53.119 --> 02:04:57.159 Sun that's hard on plants that are normally shade tolerant 2154 02:04:57.239 --> 02:05:00.079 or even preferring a little break from the. Sun but 2155 02:05:00.199 --> 02:05:04.199 a Groundcover asian jasmine is often used Around houston and sunny, 2156 02:05:04.239 --> 02:05:06.199 spots and it'll go into a little bit of. SHADE 2157 02:05:06.920 --> 02:05:09.840 a djuga as a plant that a perennial that grows 2158 02:05:09.880 --> 02:05:13.239 along the ground and spreads slowly and fills in to an. 2159 02:05:13.279 --> 02:05:18.039 Area i've seen people make entire front yards in areas 2160 02:05:18.079 --> 02:05:20.640 of town where the oak trees are reaching across the 2161 02:05:20.680 --> 02:05:22.960 street and. Touching they'll make a whole yard out of 2162 02:05:23.079 --> 02:05:27.399 loriope or monkey grass or those kinds of. Things so, 2163 02:05:27.479 --> 02:05:31.239 anyway that is up to.

Bit you don't want 2466 02:21:55.920 --> 02:21:57.559 to do too. Much you can do an inch or 2467 02:21:57.600 --> 02:22:01.559 two in a year or you you, know and eventually 2468 02:22:01.600 --> 02:22:03.200 you're going to get it probably up about three or 2469 02:22:03.200 --> 02:22:06.000 four inches to be able to get those roots covered 2470 02:22:06.360 --> 02:22:09.639 and then have the sod or whatever you're planting go over, 2471 02:22:09.760 --> 02:22:11.399 that and that would be. 2472 02:22:11.639 --> 02:22:13.639 A couple of them are pretty big high up. 2473 02:22:14.120 --> 02:22:17.239 Right, okay so it's been a long. Time, yeah, YEAH i, 2474 02:22:17.319 --> 02:22:19.280 KNOW i know people that'll cut. THEM i know people 2475 02:22:19.319 --> 02:22:21.600 will shave the top. Off but now you got the 2476 02:22:21.719 --> 02:22:23.840 inner wood of the. Root this is going to start 2477 02:22:23.879 --> 02:22:26.879 the cane down there at the ground and, uh it'll 2478 02:22:26.959 --> 02:22:29.520 try to call us over a little, bit probably help 2479 02:22:29.559 --> 02:22:33.159 a little bit with the stability of it for at 2480 02:22:33.239 --> 02:22:35.239 least for a while until the tree can grow some new. 2481 02:22:35.360 --> 02:22:39.040 Roots so there's different. Options there's not a great option for, 2482 02:22:39.200 --> 02:22:41.760 it but that's just how trees. Grow and as a 2483 02:22:41.840 --> 02:22:45.200 soiler roads away and as a root gets, bigger it 2484 02:22:45.280 --> 02:22:47.959 pushes the soil on top of it, off and then 2485 02:22:48.159 --> 02:22:49.239 you got this exposed. 2486 02:22:49.319 --> 02:22:53.479 Roote, okay all, Right SO i called your tree.

Situation 2691 02:32:52.200 --> 02:32:56.319 there are different things that could be causing the, decay 2692 02:32:57.319 --> 02:33:01.079 And i'm when it comes to palm, decay a trunk, decay. 2693 02:33:01.239 --> 02:33:05.040 Fungi i'm not an expert on that, one but things 2694 02:33:05.079 --> 02:33:08.680 like ganoderma can attack our other trees and. Stuff but, 2695 02:33:08.920 --> 02:33:11.600 YEAH i don't know of a solution to, that and it's, 2696 02:33:11.719 --> 02:33:14.959 unfortunate but you might want, to you, know if you 2697 02:33:15.040 --> 02:33:17.639 talk to someplace that sells palms and stuff and they 2698 02:33:17.879 --> 02:33:20.559 they're familiar with, it maybe they deal with it a 2699 02:33:20.600 --> 02:33:24.319 little bit more THAN i.

Related, also you, know when wherever you make a, 2713 02:33:58.479 --> 02:34:01.479 wound there's a possibility of getting the equivalent of an, 2714 02:34:01.600 --> 02:34:06.000 infection you, know on tissues like.

That we're going to talk To jennie From Full. Sure, 2878 02:42:31.600 --> 02:42:33.399 Hey janis welcome To. 2879 02:42:33.520 --> 02:42:37.239 Garden, Hi, hi longtime. Listener, anyway thanks. YOU i have 2880 02:42:37.360 --> 02:42:40.079 a pear tree that's probably about three years, old and 2881 02:42:40.239 --> 02:42:43.200 last year this time it came out beautifully bloom and green, 2882 02:42:43.280 --> 02:42:46.120 leaves and all of a sudden other leaves got dark 2883 02:42:46.159 --> 02:42:48.879 at the end and have them fell. Off it survived 2884 02:42:48.920 --> 02:42:51.159 the rest of the, summer BUT i didn't get any, 2885 02:42:51.200 --> 02:42:53.520 fruit AND i just wonder WHAT I i think that's 2886 02:42:53.600 --> 02:42:55.600 fireblight AND i just don't know WHAT i can do 2887 02:42:55.719 --> 02:42:57.000 to keep it from happy again this. 2888 02:42:57.120 --> 02:43:00.840 Year, now fireblight usually isn't just a leaf. Thing it 2889 02:43:00.959 --> 02:43:05.760 affects the. Branches it can infect through blooms or other. 2890 02:43:06.239 --> 02:43:09.079 Opportunities it gets to move into the branch and you 2891 02:43:09.200 --> 02:43:12.840 have this chocolate brown branch and the leaves don't fall, 2892 02:43:12.920 --> 02:43:15.399 Off they just turn chocolate brown and they hang. There 2893 02:43:15.920 --> 02:43:18.959 and in, fact because there's succulent new, growth it even 2894 02:43:19.040 --> 02:43:21.760 bends over like a shepherd's. Crook you. Know in the, 2895 02:43:21.920 --> 02:43:26.120 end you want to go behind that about six inches 2896 02:43:26.319 --> 02:43:29.639 four to six inches and prune it out and get 2897 02:43:29.680 --> 02:43:31.760 it out of there because it's full of. Bacteria the 2898 02:43:31.799 --> 02:43:34.719 next time the rain comes and, splashes it's going to 2899 02:43:35.079 --> 02:43:38.440 send those bacteria other places on the. Tree so get 2900 02:43:38.479 --> 02:43:41.840 those those strikes of far blight out of. There and 2901 02:43:42.000 --> 02:43:45.399 Then i'll use lyesol because it's, convenient and just spray 2902 02:43:45.479 --> 02:43:48.959 the prunters in between cuts so that you're not carrying 2903 02:43:49.319 --> 02:43:51.559 like that bacteria from one. Cut now you make a 2904 02:43:51.639 --> 02:43:54.920 new cut and you already introduce the bacteria. There that 2905 02:43:55.319 --> 02:43:58.079 is my approach to dealing with. It as far as 2906 02:43:58.120 --> 02:44:01.879 the leaves are, concerned they will row. Back but fireblight 2907 02:44:02.079 --> 02:44:05.920 depending on the, year some years it's just bad other 2908 02:44:06.040 --> 02:44:06.760 years is not so. 2909 02:44:06.959 --> 02:44:09.840 Bad, Uh and then if just BECAUSE i had it 2910 02:44:09.959 --> 02:44:11.840 last year doesn't mean it's the same thing's going to 2911 02:44:11.879 --> 02:44:12.200 happen this. 2912 02:44:12.360 --> 02:44:15.920 Year not to the degree, necessarily you, know but it's out. 2913 02:44:16.000 --> 02:44:21.079 There the variety of, pair not all are equally susceptible to. 2914 02:44:21.239 --> 02:44:25.559 It the fact that you over if you fertilize with 2915 02:44:25.719 --> 02:44:28.120 nitrogen and if you you, know water lot and get 2916 02:44:28.159 --> 02:44:31.760 a lot of, seculent succulent, growth fire blight is more 2917 02:44:31.879 --> 02:44:35.159 likely to strike. That and SO i just, say don't 2918 02:44:35.319 --> 02:44:37.760 don't fertilize a pair with nitrogen because they're going to 2919 02:44:37.840 --> 02:44:40.239 do fine without. It you see pairs in over bit in. 2920 02:44:40.280 --> 02:44:42.760 The yard though with the yard fertilizer probably gets to. 2921 02:44:42.879 --> 02:44:44.399 It, yeah it's going to get some of, that that's. 2922 02:44:44.440 --> 02:44:47.200 True that's a good. Point you can't control. That but 2923 02:44:47.520 --> 02:44:50.760 anyway that that's the. Deal on fire. Blight there is 2924 02:44:50.840 --> 02:44:52.719 a spray for, it but you got to get it 2925 02:44:52.799 --> 02:44:55.239 on ahead of. Time it's an antibiotic spray that you 2926 02:44:55.319 --> 02:44:58.360 spray on the on the. Plants most people don't go 2927 02:44:58.479 --> 02:45:01.239 to that, length but it is available out there in 2928 02:45:01.360 --> 02:45:02.799 garden centers and. 2929 02:45:02.879 --> 02:45:04.959 It doesn't hurt to be the. 2930 02:45:05.040 --> 02:45:08.399 Spray, No, no it's, okay it's it sounds like you 2931 02:45:08.479 --> 02:45:10.159 know one of the ointments you put on a cut 2932 02:45:10.200 --> 02:45:13.200 on your. Arm it's a strepto mice and. Sulfate UH 2933 02:45:13.920 --> 02:45:16.440 i believe is the. Ingredient it's an.

That and it's not easy to find 2939 02:45:27.799 --> 02:45:30.200 because most people don't want to use. It they don't 2940 02:45:30.239 --> 02:45:32.040 they don't ask for, it so people don't carry it. 2941 02:45:32.159 --> 02:45:35.159 Much, okay, okay, well thank you very. 2942 02:45:35.239 --> 02:45:38.120 Much, okay appreciate.
