00:05:02.279 --> 00:05:06.040
<v Speaker 1>Welcome to Katie r. H Garden Line with Skip Rictor.

2
00:05:06.120 --> 00:05:13.519
<v Speaker 2>It's the crazy gas a trim.

3
00:05:14.399 --> 00:05:22.639
<v Speaker 3>You just watch him as wood us so many things

4
00:05:22.680 --> 00:05:27.120
<v Speaker 3>to seep, batrasyasis and gass.

5
00:05:31.120 --> 00:05:39.199
<v Speaker 4>Not a sorry glass, gas s bean and down between.

6
00:05:43.759 --> 00:05:47.480
<v Speaker 2>All right, good morning, gardeners. We got a show to

7
00:05:47.519 --> 00:05:50.879
<v Speaker 2>do this morning. We got questions to answer, so let's

8
00:05:50.920 --> 00:05:55.000
<v Speaker 2>get going. I am this is a season where as

9
00:05:55.040 --> 00:05:58.319
<v Speaker 2>I said last week, if if you would put your index,

10
00:05:58.439 --> 00:06:01.600
<v Speaker 2>your first two fingers on your from one hand to

11
00:06:01.639 --> 00:06:03.839
<v Speaker 2>the other, and if you feel a pulse, then you

12
00:06:03.959 --> 00:06:06.360
<v Speaker 2>got to be excited about getting outside and planting something.

13
00:06:06.560 --> 00:06:08.240
<v Speaker 2>If you don't feel, if you're not it, or let's

14
00:06:08.279 --> 00:06:09.959
<v Speaker 2>be it this way, if you're not excited, you better

15
00:06:10.040 --> 00:06:12.360
<v Speaker 2>check your pulse. This is a time of year when

16
00:06:12.360 --> 00:06:14.759
<v Speaker 2>even non gardeners or gardeners, you know, you go buy

17
00:06:15.319 --> 00:06:17.839
<v Speaker 2>a garden center and see all the beautiful flowers and things,

18
00:06:17.920 --> 00:06:21.079
<v Speaker 2>or maybe some vegetables, some tomato plants, and you just think,

19
00:06:21.120 --> 00:06:22.639
<v Speaker 2>you know what, I'm going to grow one of those

20
00:06:22.680 --> 00:06:25.600
<v Speaker 2>myself this year, and I hope you do. Gardening is

21
00:06:25.839 --> 00:06:29.920
<v Speaker 2>the best, most relaxing. It's good for you physically and mentally.

22
00:06:30.000 --> 00:06:33.040
<v Speaker 2>It's enjoyable. It's one of the best hobbies I can

23
00:06:33.079 --> 00:06:36.360
<v Speaker 2>think of. I really do. And so if you want

24
00:06:36.360 --> 00:06:38.000
<v Speaker 2>to put it this way, I think there's a reason

25
00:06:38.040 --> 00:06:42.000
<v Speaker 2>that there that the beginning of man was in something

26
00:06:42.040 --> 00:06:45.279
<v Speaker 2>called the garden of Eden. Right, Okay, because we're supposed

27
00:06:45.319 --> 00:06:47.319
<v Speaker 2>to be gardening, That's all I'm saying. I used to

28
00:06:47.360 --> 00:06:50.319
<v Speaker 2>tell some friends of mine that I am actually in

29
00:06:51.079 --> 00:06:55.319
<v Speaker 2>the original profession ordained by God. How does that sound,

30
00:06:57.680 --> 00:07:00.439
<v Speaker 2>I'm a gardener, for crying out loud. It wasn't the

31
00:07:00.519 --> 00:07:03.639
<v Speaker 2>cubicle of Eden. It was the garden of Eden. So

32
00:07:03.759 --> 00:07:07.879
<v Speaker 2>they are. There's gardening snobbery for you. If you'd like

33
00:07:07.920 --> 00:07:09.920
<v Speaker 2>to give a skull this morning seven one three two

34
00:07:10.000 --> 00:07:13.279
<v Speaker 2>one two kat r H seven one three two one

35
00:07:13.319 --> 00:07:15.360
<v Speaker 2>two kt r H will be happy to visit with

36
00:07:15.399 --> 00:07:18.519
<v Speaker 2>you about whatever kinds of questions you might have. Uh,

37
00:07:18.839 --> 00:07:22.079
<v Speaker 2>just a warning. I was out in my lawn pulling

38
00:07:22.160 --> 00:07:24.439
<v Speaker 2>up some weeds that had seeds on them, and I

39
00:07:24.439 --> 00:07:25.920
<v Speaker 2>hadn't gotten to them yet. I got a little spot

40
00:07:25.959 --> 00:07:28.279
<v Speaker 2>over on the side where there's a few weeds left,

41
00:07:28.319 --> 00:07:30.839
<v Speaker 2>and trying to get to those. I prefer a hand

42
00:07:30.879 --> 00:07:34.079
<v Speaker 2>pull when I can, Uh, you know, if I if

43
00:07:34.079 --> 00:07:37.439
<v Speaker 2>you're talking about a big yard full of thousand bazillion weed. Well, yeah,

44
00:07:37.519 --> 00:07:40.480
<v Speaker 2>I get it. I wouldn't pull that either unless I

45
00:07:40.560 --> 00:07:43.519
<v Speaker 2>just had a lot of time on my hands. But anyway,

46
00:07:43.560 --> 00:07:45.360
<v Speaker 2>I saw those weeds, and that's what I was pulling them.

47
00:07:45.399 --> 00:07:48.759
<v Speaker 2>I noticed some warm season weeds germinating. You know, as

48
00:07:48.800 --> 00:07:51.120
<v Speaker 2>I get down there among the grass anywhere your grass is,

49
00:07:51.160 --> 00:07:55.560
<v Speaker 2>then anywhere that sunlight hits to soil nature plants of weed.

50
00:07:56.439 --> 00:08:00.360
<v Speaker 2>So now is kind of your I don't say last call.

51
00:08:00.839 --> 00:08:03.240
<v Speaker 2>You know, we can do pre emergent weed control anytime

52
00:08:03.240 --> 00:08:05.639
<v Speaker 2>of the year because weeds are germinating all times of

53
00:08:05.680 --> 00:08:09.319
<v Speaker 2>the year. But the warm season weeds began germinating back

54
00:08:09.680 --> 00:08:12.480
<v Speaker 2>earlier in March and they are still Germany and we'll

55
00:08:12.480 --> 00:08:16.680
<v Speaker 2>continue to through the summer. Barricade is ninetrofissis product to

56
00:08:16.800 --> 00:08:20.199
<v Speaker 2>help prevent that. Basically, what it is is it's a

57
00:08:20.240 --> 00:08:23.199
<v Speaker 2>pre emergent meaning you put it on the ground, you

58
00:08:23.399 --> 00:08:25.680
<v Speaker 2>water it in. You have to water a pre emergent

59
00:08:25.759 --> 00:08:27.879
<v Speaker 2>in and you have to put it at the right rate.

60
00:08:28.720 --> 00:08:32.200
<v Speaker 2>Not enough isn't good, too much isn't good either. So

61
00:08:32.360 --> 00:08:34.919
<v Speaker 2>the right rate watered in it goes to the soil

62
00:08:35.000 --> 00:08:38.080
<v Speaker 2>surface makes a barricade. When a weed seed tries to

63
00:08:38.159 --> 00:08:41.600
<v Speaker 2>germinate and become a weed plant, barricade says no, that's

64
00:08:41.639 --> 00:08:44.200
<v Speaker 2>how that works. Okay. Now you can find barricade a

65
00:08:44.200 --> 00:08:46.759
<v Speaker 2>lot of different places. If you go to Lake Hardware

66
00:08:46.759 --> 00:08:50.519
<v Speaker 2>and Angleton, if you down on Alasko, if you're include

67
00:08:50.600 --> 00:08:54.600
<v Speaker 2>a Lake Hardware, Include on Dixie Drives. Another place Fisher's Hardware,

68
00:08:55.000 --> 00:08:59.039
<v Speaker 2>which is in Baytown, on Alexander and Brenham plants and things.

69
00:08:59.080 --> 00:09:02.159
<v Speaker 2>There you go Highway sixty five, all places you can

70
00:09:02.159 --> 00:09:06.399
<v Speaker 2>find nitrofost products. So yes, I was doing some hand

71
00:09:06.480 --> 00:09:09.120
<v Speaker 2>weeding and I've got to tell you this, And I

72
00:09:09.159 --> 00:09:12.480
<v Speaker 2>don't expect everybody to feel this way by any means.

73
00:09:12.559 --> 00:09:14.480
<v Speaker 2>In fact, I suspect most of you you're gonna think

74
00:09:14.480 --> 00:09:18.639
<v Speaker 2>I'm nuts. But I actually like pulling weeds. Now, when

75
00:09:18.639 --> 00:09:23.200
<v Speaker 2>I was a kid, I didn't okay, uh, in my household.

76
00:09:23.320 --> 00:09:26.360
<v Speaker 2>If I misbehaved, I had to go out to the

77
00:09:26.399 --> 00:09:28.840
<v Speaker 2>garden and pull weeds. It's a wonder I ever became

78
00:09:28.840 --> 00:09:31.000
<v Speaker 2>a horticulturist. I did. I had to go out and

79
00:09:31.000 --> 00:09:35.759
<v Speaker 2>pull weeds. I think it was just like you stepped

80
00:09:35.759 --> 00:09:38.240
<v Speaker 2>off on the wrong foot. There, I think you gotta

81
00:09:38.279 --> 00:09:40.320
<v Speaker 2>go pull weeds. Well, actually it was because of the

82
00:09:40.320 --> 00:09:43.080
<v Speaker 2>things I actually did, which, by the way, we had

83
00:09:43.159 --> 00:09:45.440
<v Speaker 2>the most weed free garden in town. And I'll let

84
00:09:45.480 --> 00:09:47.879
<v Speaker 2>you put the two and two together and figure out

85
00:09:47.919 --> 00:09:52.360
<v Speaker 2>what was happening with me as a young young man. Anyway,

86
00:09:52.759 --> 00:09:54.360
<v Speaker 2>I had to go out and pull weeee. But now

87
00:09:55.000 --> 00:09:58.039
<v Speaker 2>I actually like it. I have an area of the

88
00:09:58.120 --> 00:10:00.399
<v Speaker 2>yard where I didn't take a good care of it

89
00:10:00.480 --> 00:10:03.360
<v Speaker 2>last year, just busy and not doing the things I need.

90
00:10:03.440 --> 00:10:06.679
<v Speaker 2>Actually was a lack of water in that area that

91
00:10:06.879 --> 00:10:08.879
<v Speaker 2>it's kind of sunny and it got a little thin.

92
00:10:09.960 --> 00:10:12.159
<v Speaker 2>But when I go out, I have a little kneeling bench.

93
00:10:12.200 --> 00:10:14.039
<v Speaker 2>You hear me brag about those all the time. I

94
00:10:14.159 --> 00:10:18.039
<v Speaker 2>love that tool. Kneeling bench, and I just five gallon

95
00:10:18.080 --> 00:10:20.440
<v Speaker 2>bucket and I've got a little weeding tool where I

96
00:10:20.480 --> 00:10:22.639
<v Speaker 2>can put it in the ground. I'm not sitting there

97
00:10:22.639 --> 00:10:25.080
<v Speaker 2>fighting against a weed and it's breaking off and everything.

98
00:10:25.080 --> 00:10:27.759
<v Speaker 2>It just pops up. I do that, don't even think

99
00:10:27.799 --> 00:10:29.559
<v Speaker 2>about where I am, how much is to go, Just

100
00:10:29.679 --> 00:10:31.960
<v Speaker 2>kind of work my way across like you're reading a book,

101
00:10:32.000 --> 00:10:34.639
<v Speaker 2>you know, or left or right, left to right and

102
00:10:35.200 --> 00:10:37.960
<v Speaker 2>going back and forth. And I had to stop and

103
00:10:38.000 --> 00:10:40.919
<v Speaker 2>go in. And I stood up and looked and it's like,

104
00:10:40.919 --> 00:10:44.320
<v Speaker 2>there's this perfectly weed free yard on one side, and

105
00:10:44.360 --> 00:10:46.480
<v Speaker 2>on the other side there I hadn't gotten there yet,

106
00:10:46.639 --> 00:10:50.080
<v Speaker 2>still weeds, but there's a gratification for me and looking

107
00:10:50.200 --> 00:10:54.039
<v Speaker 2>up and seeing that I have taken care of the weed.

108
00:10:54.039 --> 00:10:56.360
<v Speaker 2>But I don't know there. You know, life has a

109
00:10:56.399 --> 00:11:00.919
<v Speaker 2>lot of areas. Maybe your work is this mine was

110
00:11:00.960 --> 00:11:03.200
<v Speaker 2>for many years, where you work all day and you

111
00:11:03.279 --> 00:11:04.879
<v Speaker 2>kind of at the end of the day go, I

112
00:11:04.879 --> 00:11:08.080
<v Speaker 2>don't really know what I accomplished today. When you're pulling weeds,

113
00:11:08.320 --> 00:11:10.919
<v Speaker 2>it is crystal clear. You know, every five minutes you

114
00:11:10.960 --> 00:11:14.240
<v Speaker 2>look and you see what you did. So there not

115
00:11:14.320 --> 00:11:17.240
<v Speaker 2>trying to convince you to love love weed pulling, but

116
00:11:17.320 --> 00:11:20.960
<v Speaker 2>I'll tell you it is therapeutic. Now not one hundred

117
00:11:21.039 --> 00:11:23.799
<v Speaker 2>degrees with fire ants crawling up your legs, mosquito is

118
00:11:23.840 --> 00:11:27.120
<v Speaker 2>bearing down on your neck. You know, not that. But

119
00:11:27.200 --> 00:11:30.879
<v Speaker 2>it is a good thing. So we all want our

120
00:11:31.000 --> 00:11:33.720
<v Speaker 2>yards to look better. I want to look beautiful. That

121
00:11:34.240 --> 00:11:36.480
<v Speaker 2>is kind of been the project I've been on all week.

122
00:11:36.480 --> 00:11:38.000
<v Speaker 2>In fact, I've had a lot of work. It didn't

123
00:11:38.039 --> 00:11:39.279
<v Speaker 2>get done this week because I was out in the

124
00:11:39.360 --> 00:11:42.360
<v Speaker 2>yard doing a bunch of different things. I'll talk about

125
00:11:42.399 --> 00:11:44.519
<v Speaker 2>those we go through the show today. But anyway, got

126
00:11:44.519 --> 00:11:48.360
<v Speaker 2>all that done and so hey, I feel good about that.

127
00:11:48.480 --> 00:11:51.600
<v Speaker 2>It's a good week in the garden. If you are

128
00:11:51.600 --> 00:11:54.679
<v Speaker 2>looking to have a turnkey job that makes your landscape

129
00:11:54.720 --> 00:12:00.120
<v Speaker 2>look like awesome, just awesome botanical garden, Piercecapes can do that.

130
00:12:00.159 --> 00:12:03.080
<v Speaker 2>They are our preferred landscapeer. Been arouns. It's nineteen eighty eight.

131
00:12:03.840 --> 00:12:06.879
<v Speaker 2>And whether you do want that whole turnkey garden, I mean,

132
00:12:07.240 --> 00:12:10.679
<v Speaker 2>you know, design it for me. Let's do everything. If

133
00:12:10.720 --> 00:12:13.159
<v Speaker 2>I own an every inch of property I own in

134
00:12:13.200 --> 00:12:14.919
<v Speaker 2>the city lot, I want you to turn it into

135
00:12:14.919 --> 00:12:17.639
<v Speaker 2>something special. Or if you just want a little spring

136
00:12:17.639 --> 00:12:19.759
<v Speaker 2>freshening up, if you want to redo a flower bed

137
00:12:19.799 --> 00:12:21.559
<v Speaker 2>and have some new plants put in. Maybe you need

138
00:12:21.600 --> 00:12:27.840
<v Speaker 2>irrigation work, drainage work, lighting work, some hardscapes, stone and things.

139
00:12:28.200 --> 00:12:30.879
<v Speaker 2>Pierce Capes is a place to go. They're professionals. If

140
00:12:30.879 --> 00:12:34.200
<v Speaker 2>you don't believe me, go to the website Piercescapes dot com,

141
00:12:34.240 --> 00:12:38.279
<v Speaker 2>piercescapes dot com or give them a call two eight

142
00:12:38.320 --> 00:12:41.679
<v Speaker 2>one three seven fifty sixty. I prefer to people go

143
00:12:41.720 --> 00:12:43.559
<v Speaker 2>to the website because when you see the work they do,

144
00:12:43.639 --> 00:12:45.919
<v Speaker 2>it's amazing. By the way, they also will come in

145
00:12:45.960 --> 00:12:48.000
<v Speaker 2>and just do quarterly maintenance. You know you've got your

146
00:12:48.000 --> 00:12:49.919
<v Speaker 2>place like mine. I should have had them last year

147
00:12:50.000 --> 00:12:53.480
<v Speaker 2>instead of those weeds growing water taking care of things. Anyway,

148
00:12:53.600 --> 00:12:56.240
<v Speaker 2>they're good. Time for me to take a quick break.

149
00:12:56.279 --> 00:13:06.879
<v Speaker 2>We'll be right back with Bob from Porter. All right,

150
00:13:06.919 --> 00:13:11.519
<v Speaker 2>so we are back, and if your neighbors aren't up,

151
00:13:11.639 --> 00:13:14.039
<v Speaker 2>by the way, go bang them the door. Tell them

152
00:13:14.039 --> 00:13:18.440
<v Speaker 2>they're missing guard Line and they will very much appreciate that. Someday.

153
00:13:19.600 --> 00:13:22.759
<v Speaker 2>I'm gonna go out to Porter now and talk to Bob. Hello, Bob,

154
00:13:22.879 --> 00:13:25.600
<v Speaker 2>good morning, Welcome to Guardline.

155
00:13:25.919 --> 00:13:29.240
<v Speaker 5>How you doing, Skip, Hey doing well?

156
00:13:29.279 --> 00:13:30.000
<v Speaker 2>Thank you?

157
00:13:30.000 --> 00:13:34.559
<v Speaker 5>Greg? Can you grow dragging the fruit in our area.

158
00:13:34.240 --> 00:13:40.320
<v Speaker 2>Here with protection from the cold. Usually people put it

159
00:13:40.320 --> 00:13:42.960
<v Speaker 2>in like a rolling planter or something. They can get

160
00:13:42.720 --> 00:13:46.360
<v Speaker 2>a dolly under and uh take it into the garage.

161
00:13:47.240 --> 00:13:48.600
<v Speaker 2>It's not cold, fully cold.

162
00:13:48.440 --> 00:13:49.000
<v Speaker 6>Hardly.

163
00:13:50.559 --> 00:13:54.000
<v Speaker 5>Okay. And then I got one more. I contain our garden.

164
00:13:54.679 --> 00:13:58.600
<v Speaker 7>Uh quite a bit actually, but I've been using can

165
00:13:58.600 --> 00:13:59.480
<v Speaker 7>I say that product name?

166
00:14:01.200 --> 00:14:01.440
<v Speaker 2>Yeah?

167
00:14:01.480 --> 00:14:07.200
<v Speaker 7>Sure, I use microlaps six two four. But uh, I

168
00:14:07.240 --> 00:14:10.320
<v Speaker 7>got a buddy that uses the three eight I think

169
00:14:10.480 --> 00:14:14.480
<v Speaker 7>three eight three? Uh the liquid? Uh, do you have

170
00:14:14.519 --> 00:14:19.559
<v Speaker 7>any purpose on that? I'm mainly tomatoes and peppers, you know,

171
00:14:19.639 --> 00:14:22.399
<v Speaker 7>blooming blooming plant plant, tomato.

172
00:14:22.159 --> 00:14:28.159
<v Speaker 5>Pepper, squash, cucumbers. Right, you got a purpose on either

173
00:14:28.200 --> 00:14:28.720
<v Speaker 5>one of those.

174
00:14:30.360 --> 00:14:31.399
<v Speaker 2>I like the microlife.

175
00:14:31.759 --> 00:14:31.879
<v Speaker 8>Uh.

176
00:14:32.240 --> 00:14:35.000
<v Speaker 2>But here's the let me let me back up one

177
00:14:35.240 --> 00:14:39.879
<v Speaker 2>step before even your question. The best fertilizer for your

178
00:14:39.919 --> 00:14:43.480
<v Speaker 2>garden depends on what's already in your garden. So like

179
00:14:43.559 --> 00:14:48.000
<v Speaker 2>let's say you had good solid phosphorus levels. Well, then

180
00:14:48.159 --> 00:14:51.679
<v Speaker 2>that three eight whatever you were saying, that higher phosphorus

181
00:14:51.799 --> 00:14:55.840
<v Speaker 2>is not the fertilizer for you. Most plants are going

182
00:14:55.879 --> 00:14:57.799
<v Speaker 2>to take up nutrients in a kind of a three

183
00:14:57.879 --> 00:15:01.240
<v Speaker 2>one two ratio. Now, the phosphorus if you're trying to

184
00:15:01.240 --> 00:15:03.840
<v Speaker 2>get things to root, like you're putting in any transplant

185
00:15:03.840 --> 00:15:07.240
<v Speaker 2>and things, phosphorus is a good thing for that higher phosphorus. Right,

186
00:15:07.799 --> 00:15:10.080
<v Speaker 2>But you said six two four of the green bag

187
00:15:10.159 --> 00:15:12.799
<v Speaker 2>microlife is am I right? Is that what you said?

188
00:15:13.080 --> 00:15:13.399
<v Speaker 5>Yes?

189
00:15:14.440 --> 00:15:17.519
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, yeah, that way. I use that on a lot of.

190
00:15:17.519 --> 00:15:22.440
<v Speaker 7>Diff Okay, well I use that on for our granular

191
00:15:22.519 --> 00:15:26.080
<v Speaker 7>but you know, uh, I do feed my tubes too,

192
00:15:26.120 --> 00:15:29.840
<v Speaker 7>like e were, I use the powder and the line

193
00:15:29.879 --> 00:15:33.320
<v Speaker 7>when I'm planting, but when I'm when I'm feeding my tubes,

194
00:15:33.879 --> 00:15:37.120
<v Speaker 7>I use Wiking tubs. And I've been used. I thought

195
00:15:37.159 --> 00:15:40.080
<v Speaker 7>there was six two four, maybe nots of the Microlife liquid.

196
00:15:40.799 --> 00:15:43.159
<v Speaker 7>Uh you know a couple of tables for gallon.

197
00:15:44.279 --> 00:15:49.720
<v Speaker 5>I didn't know if that well, Uh no.

198
00:15:49.840 --> 00:15:53.919
<v Speaker 2>Those are those are fine. Uh the the Microlife has

199
00:15:54.639 --> 00:15:58.000
<v Speaker 2>a maximum bloom. It's called three eight three. Now, even

200
00:15:58.039 --> 00:16:01.000
<v Speaker 2>though it says maximum blooms, you could put that as

201
00:16:01.039 --> 00:16:04.120
<v Speaker 2>a transplant fertilizer because it's got that hyphosphorus in it.

202
00:16:04.360 --> 00:16:06.879
<v Speaker 2>You could use that. They have the Ocean Harvest, which

203
00:16:06.919 --> 00:16:08.720
<v Speaker 2>is a fish base, and it's four two three, so

204
00:16:08.720 --> 00:16:10.759
<v Speaker 2>it's kind of a more of the same amount of

205
00:16:10.759 --> 00:16:14.320
<v Speaker 2>each one, roughly closer to it at least, So it

206
00:16:14.679 --> 00:16:16.519
<v Speaker 2>kind of just depends on what you're trying to do.

207
00:16:16.600 --> 00:16:18.759
<v Speaker 2>But if you want to, you can go anyway. All

208
00:16:18.799 --> 00:16:22.679
<v Speaker 2>those liquids for microlife are good products. So I used

209
00:16:22.799 --> 00:16:25.320
<v Speaker 2>I probably used two thirds of them, and I keep

210
00:16:25.360 --> 00:16:27.080
<v Speaker 2>I'm working my way through them just to have some

211
00:16:27.159 --> 00:16:29.759
<v Speaker 2>experience with them.

212
00:16:30.000 --> 00:16:35.440
<v Speaker 5>Okay, alrighty, that works for me. I appreciate you, Miss Skill.

213
00:16:35.559 --> 00:16:35.960
<v Speaker 5>Thank you.

214
00:16:37.679 --> 00:16:40.320
<v Speaker 2>Well, Bob, thank you, and just remember the rule on guardline,

215
00:16:40.360 --> 00:16:42.960
<v Speaker 2>as my advice is free, but I expect half your produce,

216
00:16:43.679 --> 00:16:45.759
<v Speaker 2>So just split it half and bring it, bring it

217
00:16:45.799 --> 00:16:48.120
<v Speaker 2>to the station, and we'll call it even. Thank you, sir,

218
00:16:48.279 --> 00:16:54.480
<v Speaker 2>by bye. I I wonder if I'm going to ever

219
00:16:54.519 --> 00:16:56.120
<v Speaker 2>get tired of that jerk. I met a bunch of

220
00:16:56.159 --> 00:17:01.000
<v Speaker 2>you have already. Welcome to garden Line. I'm your host,

221
00:17:01.000 --> 00:17:04.039
<v Speaker 2>Skip Rictor. We're here to have fun, and not just

222
00:17:04.160 --> 00:17:07.039
<v Speaker 2>on the radio, but have fun gardening. The thing I

223
00:17:07.079 --> 00:17:08.680
<v Speaker 2>like to say on guarden Line is I'm here to

224
00:17:08.680 --> 00:17:12.079
<v Speaker 2>help you have a more bountiful garden, a more beautiful landscape,

225
00:17:12.079 --> 00:17:14.119
<v Speaker 2>and more fun in the process. And that's kind of

226
00:17:14.119 --> 00:17:17.759
<v Speaker 2>how that works. Fun in the process. Don't forget that part.

227
00:17:17.920 --> 00:17:23.200
<v Speaker 2>Gardening should be fun. If you are wanting to switch

228
00:17:23.279 --> 00:17:27.759
<v Speaker 2>into your summer lawn fertilization season, it's time to go

229
00:17:27.799 --> 00:17:30.279
<v Speaker 2>ahead and begin that if you like to do that now.

230
00:17:30.839 --> 00:17:33.440
<v Speaker 2>If you look at my schedule, there is an optional

231
00:17:33.519 --> 00:17:36.359
<v Speaker 2>spring green up that's a quick release, and then there

232
00:17:36.519 --> 00:17:40.960
<v Speaker 2>when we hit the summer, well, excuse me, when we

233
00:17:40.960 --> 00:17:43.599
<v Speaker 2>get to later spring, mid to late spring is a

234
00:17:43.640 --> 00:17:48.440
<v Speaker 2>time when we begin doing those fertilizations that last longer

235
00:17:48.480 --> 00:17:54.200
<v Speaker 2>and Mike like the Superturf. My brain went blink there

236
00:17:54.240 --> 00:17:57.839
<v Speaker 2>for a minute. From nitrofoss Nitrovos Superturf is a nineteen

237
00:17:57.920 --> 00:18:01.640
<v Speaker 2>four to ten fertilizer, but it lasts for like four

238
00:18:01.640 --> 00:18:05.240
<v Speaker 2>months in the lawn. So this isn't the quick release,

239
00:18:05.400 --> 00:18:07.799
<v Speaker 2>and you could use a quick release by the way.

240
00:18:07.839 --> 00:18:10.039
<v Speaker 2>You know they have the Imperial the fast release. You

241
00:18:10.079 --> 00:18:12.680
<v Speaker 2>could use that all through the summer by just making

242
00:18:12.759 --> 00:18:15.440
<v Speaker 2>small applications of it over time. But if you want

243
00:18:15.440 --> 00:18:18.279
<v Speaker 2>to make one application and have it gradually feed your lawn,

244
00:18:18.440 --> 00:18:19.720
<v Speaker 2>the way to go, and that's why I do it

245
00:18:19.720 --> 00:18:21.920
<v Speaker 2>on my schedule. This way is you shift to a

246
00:18:22.039 --> 00:18:26.519
<v Speaker 2>longer term for lighter and microash. Gosh nitrofive super turf.

247
00:18:26.920 --> 00:18:31.359
<v Speaker 2>My brain is starting to function, but not quite. It

248
00:18:31.720 --> 00:18:34.759
<v Speaker 2>gives you that gradual feed, so your mowing is not

249
00:18:35.000 --> 00:18:37.640
<v Speaker 2>just jacked up to having a mowmo mo because you

250
00:18:37.960 --> 00:18:41.240
<v Speaker 2>hit the grass with all this extra nitrogen. I know

251
00:18:41.279 --> 00:18:45.640
<v Speaker 2>it's nineteen percent. That's almost one fifth nitrogen in the product,

252
00:18:45.799 --> 00:18:48.200
<v Speaker 2>but it's not all available at once. You're talking about

253
00:18:48.200 --> 00:18:51.000
<v Speaker 2>four months a feeding and that it makes it easy

254
00:18:51.079 --> 00:18:53.200
<v Speaker 2>and it's a silver bag, which makes it easy to

255
00:18:53.240 --> 00:18:56.039
<v Speaker 2>find it in the store. So whether you go, let's

256
00:18:56.039 --> 00:18:59.680
<v Speaker 2>say to M and D. Beamer on Sagemont Area clear

257
00:18:59.759 --> 00:19:02.359
<v Speaker 2>like I'm indee Clare Lake on Bay Area Boulevard, or

258
00:19:02.440 --> 00:19:06.240
<v Speaker 2>Fisher's Hardware my Bellevue. There's also Fisher's Hardware there on

259
00:19:06.279 --> 00:19:10.839
<v Speaker 2>South Broadway in Laporte, you're gonna find nitrofost products like

260
00:19:10.880 --> 00:19:14.720
<v Speaker 2>this superturf. And so if you didn't do an early

261
00:19:14.799 --> 00:19:18.400
<v Speaker 2>spring green up, do the super turf now, go ahead

262
00:19:18.400 --> 00:19:22.319
<v Speaker 2>and do it now it's time. If you did do that,

263
00:19:22.440 --> 00:19:25.279
<v Speaker 2>you can wait about four to six weeks, probably six

264
00:19:25.279 --> 00:19:28.000
<v Speaker 2>weeks after the greenup was applied, and put down your

265
00:19:28.000 --> 00:19:31.240
<v Speaker 2>super turf at that time. We're going to go now

266
00:19:31.279 --> 00:19:34.880
<v Speaker 2>to North Houston and talk to Robert. Hello, Robert, Welcome

267
00:19:34.920 --> 00:19:35.599
<v Speaker 2>to garden Line.

268
00:19:36.279 --> 00:19:38.920
<v Speaker 9>Good morning, Skip, Yeah, Skip, I had a question about

269
00:19:38.960 --> 00:19:41.480
<v Speaker 9>this plan is callen Coy Canada.

270
00:19:42.799 --> 00:19:45.480
<v Speaker 2>It's called Leaf of Life.

271
00:19:45.720 --> 00:19:49.480
<v Speaker 9>And okay, wait, I talked to the people I bought

272
00:19:49.480 --> 00:19:51.079
<v Speaker 9>it from and they say you can make a tea

273
00:19:51.160 --> 00:19:54.519
<v Speaker 9>out of it, So that tells me it's not poisonous.

274
00:19:55.920 --> 00:19:59.000
<v Speaker 2>And yeah, I didn't know that.

275
00:20:00.519 --> 00:20:04.359
<v Speaker 9>Okay, go ahead, Well anyway, I'm wondering since if you

276
00:20:04.359 --> 00:20:06.599
<v Speaker 9>can make a ted of do you think maybe possibly

277
00:20:06.640 --> 00:20:07.400
<v Speaker 9>it be edible.

278
00:20:10.839 --> 00:20:13.720
<v Speaker 2>I just can't tell you that I didn't know that

279
00:20:13.839 --> 00:20:17.759
<v Speaker 2>you could eat calanchoy. I'm sure it's a certain type

280
00:20:17.759 --> 00:20:20.839
<v Speaker 2>of calenikoe like you mentioned, but I don't I'm gonna

281
00:20:20.880 --> 00:20:23.720
<v Speaker 2>not not on the air so that you can or

282
00:20:23.759 --> 00:20:27.559
<v Speaker 2>can't eat it. That would be one that I would

283
00:20:27.599 --> 00:20:31.480
<v Speaker 2>suggest you do some online searching and just be careful

284
00:20:31.559 --> 00:20:35.880
<v Speaker 2>with the sources that you read, you know, on that

285
00:20:35.960 --> 00:20:38.720
<v Speaker 2>kind of thing. I'll usually do some searching and go

286
00:20:38.799 --> 00:20:40.839
<v Speaker 2>to a bunch of different sources and read what they

287
00:20:40.880 --> 00:20:43.400
<v Speaker 2>say and stuff. If it's associated with any kind of

288
00:20:43.400 --> 00:20:46.799
<v Speaker 2>a like a university kind of thing, that that's even

289
00:20:46.839 --> 00:20:50.599
<v Speaker 2>better because they're they're more likely to be given your

290
00:20:50.599 --> 00:20:54.119
<v Speaker 2>research based information. But anyway, sorry, I can't I can't

291
00:20:54.160 --> 00:20:56.920
<v Speaker 2>answer that one for you. It was did you say Panada?

292
00:20:57.039 --> 00:21:02.279
<v Speaker 2>P I N N A T A Yes, sure, Okay,

293
00:21:03.799 --> 00:21:06.960
<v Speaker 2>Well I'm going to look into that. I'm gonna look yeah,

294
00:21:06.960 --> 00:21:09.880
<v Speaker 2>I'm gonna look into that. You know, I don't generally

295
00:21:10.680 --> 00:21:15.880
<v Speaker 2>recommend eating things on the air just because people misunderstand, uh,

296
00:21:15.920 --> 00:21:19.240
<v Speaker 2>and you know, there's a you gotta be real careful

297
00:21:19.279 --> 00:21:22.279
<v Speaker 2>with things. But I'm going to look into that because

298
00:21:22.319 --> 00:21:24.039
<v Speaker 2>I I had not heard that one before.

299
00:21:25.160 --> 00:21:27.359
<v Speaker 9>Okay, can I call you back once once you have

300
00:21:27.400 --> 00:21:28.880
<v Speaker 9>a chance to kind of research you.

301
00:21:30.720 --> 00:21:33.359
<v Speaker 2>Tell you what, Let's do this. I'm gonna put you

302
00:21:33.400 --> 00:21:37.119
<v Speaker 2>on hold. Uh my producer Jonathan will pick up and

303
00:21:37.160 --> 00:21:39.720

305
00:21:42.279 --> 00:21:42.400
<v Speaker 10>Uh.

306
00:21:42.960 --> 00:21:45.480
<v Speaker 2>I'm going to find some links and send those to

307
00:21:45.599 --> 00:21:48.799
<v Speaker 2>you and if I can find anything on it, and

308

<v Speaker 2>uh be happy to do that. Okay, okay, thank you,

309
00:21:53.279 --> 00:21:57.519
<v Speaker 2>Thank you all right, Robert, thanks a lot, appreciate your call.

310
00:21:59.640 --> 00:22:02.200
<v Speaker 2>That is very interesting. I have to look into that one.

311
00:22:03.160 --> 00:22:05.240
<v Speaker 2>I was at the Arbrogate a while back, and I

312
00:22:05.279 --> 00:22:07.839
<v Speaker 2>always love going there because it's just like it's like

313
00:22:07.880 --> 00:22:10.400
<v Speaker 2>you've gone to a little gardening wonderland.

314
00:22:10.880 --> 00:22:11.000
<v Speaker 11>You.

315
00:22:11.319 --> 00:22:13.359
<v Speaker 2>First of all, you park in the back. That's I mean,

316
00:22:13.400 --> 00:22:15.720
<v Speaker 2>they still have the front lot, but the back is

317
00:22:15.880 --> 00:22:18.279
<v Speaker 2>much more space, much safer to get easy to get

318
00:22:18.319 --> 00:22:21.359
<v Speaker 2>in and out and everything. It's off Trichel Road, which

319
00:22:21.400 --> 00:22:23.759
<v Speaker 2>is a loop that goes around behind Arburgate. When you

320
00:22:23.799 --> 00:22:26.240
<v Speaker 2>walk in it, just from the minute you step in,

321
00:22:26.759 --> 00:22:29.200
<v Speaker 2>you could just stop, take one step in and stop

322
00:22:29.279 --> 00:22:32.759
<v Speaker 2>and start looking around because I mean there's pottery here,

323
00:22:32.799 --> 00:22:36.400
<v Speaker 2>and there's rain chains in from the building over there,

324
00:22:36.440 --> 00:22:40.039
<v Speaker 2>and there's plants, you know, of vegetables and herbs. It's

325
00:22:40.079 --> 00:22:43.720
<v Speaker 2>just fun to walk through there. The gardens are all decorated,

326
00:22:43.799 --> 00:22:47.559
<v Speaker 2>lots of bling for your garden beds, you know, the

327
00:22:47.640 --> 00:22:50.440
<v Speaker 2>decorations and things for the bed. But the plants, the

328
00:22:50.480 --> 00:22:53.400
<v Speaker 2>plants are amazing. And they have their their one two

329
00:22:53.440 --> 00:22:57.079
<v Speaker 2>three completely easy system with the soils. That's an organic

330
00:22:57.160 --> 00:23:00.920
<v Speaker 2>food complete, and organic soil complete and organic com post complete.

331
00:23:01.519 --> 00:23:04.359
<v Speaker 2>Those three together is what when you hear me say

332
00:23:04.400 --> 00:23:07.160
<v Speaker 2>brown stuff before green stuff, that's what I'm talking about.

333
00:23:07.240 --> 00:23:12.519
<v Speaker 2>You get the fertilizers, the composts, the multiz you get

334
00:23:12.519 --> 00:23:14.759
<v Speaker 2>all of that kind of stuff ready to go make

335
00:23:14.799 --> 00:23:16.839
<v Speaker 2>your soul ready and then put the plant in and

336
00:23:16.920 --> 00:23:20.559
<v Speaker 2>you have success. And the color that you see there

337
00:23:20.640 --> 00:23:24.319
<v Speaker 2>right now is outstanding. I mean, it's just every kind

338
00:23:24.319 --> 00:23:27.559
<v Speaker 2>of plant you can imagine. And they are experts. They're

339
00:23:27.599 --> 00:23:30.079
<v Speaker 2>gardeners who know what they're doing and they're not going

340
00:23:30.119 --> 00:23:32.200
<v Speaker 2>to sell you a plant that didn't grow here. If

341
00:23:32.240 --> 00:23:34.319
<v Speaker 2>you have problems with the plant, they're going to tell

342
00:23:34.359 --> 00:23:36.640
<v Speaker 2>you what to do about it. You can go in

343
00:23:36.680 --> 00:23:39.519
<v Speaker 2>with samples or questions. That the thing I think that's

344
00:23:39.799 --> 00:23:43.960
<v Speaker 2>most I just see people doing it all the time there,

345
00:23:44.000 --> 00:23:46.519
<v Speaker 2>and that is they find somebody that works there actually

346
00:23:46.759 --> 00:23:49.480
<v Speaker 2>works the other way around. Often they're greeting you and

347
00:23:49.480 --> 00:23:51.880
<v Speaker 2>coming up to you and that person will walk through

348
00:23:51.920 --> 00:23:53.759
<v Speaker 2>with somebody. They'll go. You know, I want to make

349
00:23:53.759 --> 00:23:56.279
<v Speaker 2>an herb planter, but I don't know which ones would

350
00:23:56.319 --> 00:23:58.000
<v Speaker 2>be good to go together, or I want to make

351
00:23:58.039 --> 00:24:01.279
<v Speaker 2>a one of those. I hear about the thriller filler spiller,

352
00:24:01.799 --> 00:24:05.799
<v Speaker 2>you know, floral decorative container for out in the patio,

353
00:24:06.000 --> 00:24:08.279
<v Speaker 2>but I don't know what plants do that. They'll walk

354
00:24:08.279 --> 00:24:10.079
<v Speaker 2>you through. They'll tell you, well, here's some options, this

355
00:24:10.200 --> 00:24:13.200
<v Speaker 2>works good together and here's how you do get You

356
00:24:13.279 --> 00:24:18.640
<v Speaker 2>get expert advice. And that is just so valuable. And

357
00:24:18.680 --> 00:24:20.880
<v Speaker 2>when you go to Arburgate, that is what you should

358
00:24:20.880 --> 00:24:23.240
<v Speaker 2>expect because that's what you're going to get. That's that's

359
00:24:23.319 --> 00:24:26.279
<v Speaker 2>what they do, that's who they are there. If you

360
00:24:26.440 --> 00:24:30.039
<v Speaker 2>are interested in stopping by and you haven't been before,

361
00:24:30.119 --> 00:24:32.279
<v Speaker 2>first of all, where you've been hiding. But if you

362
00:24:32.319 --> 00:24:34.240
<v Speaker 2>haven't been before, it's out on twenty nine to twenty

363
00:24:34.279 --> 00:24:37.119
<v Speaker 2>west to Tumbull and remember look for Treshel Road so

364
00:24:37.160 --> 00:24:39.680
<v Speaker 2>you can swing around behind Arburgate. Find you a good

365
00:24:39.720 --> 00:24:43.240
<v Speaker 2>parking spot and enjoy yourself. Take some friends and family

366
00:24:43.319 --> 00:24:46.920
<v Speaker 2>with you because it is a fun outing. I disappear

367
00:24:46.960 --> 00:24:49.960
<v Speaker 2>into there and it may be days before I come

368
00:24:50.079 --> 00:24:53.400
<v Speaker 2>back out because there's so much cool stuff to see.

369
00:24:54.200 --> 00:24:56.960
<v Speaker 2>I really need it. Sometimes I lose track of time

370
00:24:57.440 --> 00:25:01.240
<v Speaker 2>when a plant peeping, you know, checking them all out.

371
00:25:02.119 --> 00:25:05.359
<v Speaker 2>Jungle Land is a product that Nitropos makes that they

372
00:25:05.359 --> 00:25:08.519
<v Speaker 2>have two versions of it. One is for containers indoors.

373
00:25:08.559 --> 00:25:13.039
<v Speaker 2>It's called the jungle Land Water Saving Potting Soil. It's

374
00:25:13.039 --> 00:25:15.279
<v Speaker 2>got the crystals that hold water a little longer than

375
00:25:15.279 --> 00:25:17.960
<v Speaker 2>the soil does so that the plant roots don't go

376
00:25:18.039 --> 00:25:21.480
<v Speaker 2>into stress. The other one is jungle Land Flour and

377
00:25:21.599 --> 00:25:24.759
<v Speaker 2>Vegetable Planting Soil. You know, it's just what it says.

378
00:25:24.799 --> 00:25:27.640
<v Speaker 2>It's for outdoors. It does better for the outdoor containers.

379
00:25:27.839 --> 00:25:30.359
<v Speaker 2>Both of them will give you good success. Now you're

380
00:25:30.359 --> 00:25:34.480
<v Speaker 2>going to find jungle Land products at places jungle Land

381
00:25:34.519 --> 00:25:39.079
<v Speaker 2>products and Nitrofos products in general places like Fisher's Hardware, Pasadena,

382
00:25:39.359 --> 00:25:42.279
<v Speaker 2>D and D. Feed up in Tomball plants for all seasons.

383
00:25:42.319 --> 00:25:46.440
<v Speaker 2>Two forty nine, and that is right there where Luetta

384
00:25:46.519 --> 00:25:49.480
<v Speaker 2>comes into two forty nine and RCW Nursery Tomba parkway.

385
00:25:50.119 --> 00:25:51.720
<v Speaker 2>All right, time for me to go to a break.

386
00:25:52.119 --> 00:25:55.440
<v Speaker 2>When I come back, we will be answering your gardening questions.

387
00:25:55.440 --> 00:25:56.799
<v Speaker 2>And if you'd like to be one of the first

388
00:25:56.880 --> 00:26:02.359
<v Speaker 2>up seven one three two one two ktr H. Can't

389
00:26:02.400 --> 00:26:03.759
<v Speaker 2>have something start?

390
00:26:04.680 --> 00:26:05.279
<v Speaker 7>Who's there?

391
00:26:06.240 --> 00:26:06.720
<v Speaker 12>Somebody?

392
00:26:07.359 --> 00:26:07.480
<v Speaker 4>There?

393
00:26:07.519 --> 00:26:09.440
<v Speaker 13>Ain't nobody here about this chicken.

394
00:26:10.519 --> 00:26:13.279
<v Speaker 2>Ain't nobody all right? A little asleep at the wheel.

395
00:26:13.319 --> 00:26:16.799
<v Speaker 2>And you know on garden line the chicken music and

396
00:26:16.880 --> 00:26:20.680
<v Speaker 2>only mean one thing means the chicks are in. That's right.

397
00:26:20.799 --> 00:26:23.640
<v Speaker 2>D and D feed three miles west of Highway forty

398
00:26:23.720 --> 00:26:27.400
<v Speaker 2>nine on twenty nine twenty and Tomball. They are getting

399
00:26:27.640 --> 00:26:32.440
<v Speaker 2>chickens in all through the spring. It is crazy. You know.

400
00:26:32.559 --> 00:26:36.319
<v Speaker 2>They just got in Thursday some silky banams and some

401
00:26:36.440 --> 00:26:38.440
<v Speaker 2>ducks and some turkeys too, by the way, I should

402
00:26:38.480 --> 00:26:39.799
<v Speaker 2>say poultry instead of chicken.

403
00:26:40.359 --> 00:26:40.440
<v Speaker 11>Uh.

404
00:26:40.559 --> 00:26:42.799
<v Speaker 2>And then on Friday they got some wine dots in,

405
00:26:43.119 --> 00:26:47.480
<v Speaker 2>some Sicilian buttercups, some cream leg bar, some speckle sussek.

406
00:26:47.599 --> 00:26:49.799
<v Speaker 2>You didn't know these chickens existed, did you. Well, you

407
00:26:49.839 --> 00:26:53.000
<v Speaker 2>need to go by there, and they're cute little things,

408
00:26:53.960 --> 00:26:56.359
<v Speaker 2>really really cool, and I just mentioned a few. I

409
00:26:56.400 --> 00:26:59.720
<v Speaker 2>think on Friday they probably got about a dozen different

410
00:26:59.759 --> 00:27:02.920
<v Speaker 2>kinds of chicks in and then coming up next week

411
00:27:03.039 --> 00:27:07.160
<v Speaker 2>or this week, coming up on Thursday, they got Americana pullets.

412
00:27:07.200 --> 00:27:10.920
<v Speaker 2>They've got some turkeys and some silky bantams. And if

413
00:27:10.920 --> 00:27:13.599
<v Speaker 2>you've not seen a silky bantam, you gotta google it.

414
00:27:13.599 --> 00:27:15.839
<v Speaker 2>It is really cool. Well, when you go into dnd feed,

415
00:27:15.880 --> 00:27:17.960
<v Speaker 2>you're not going to just get chickens. You're gonna get

416
00:27:17.960 --> 00:27:21.319
<v Speaker 2>feed for your livestock, for your pets. You're going to

417
00:27:21.400 --> 00:27:23.759
<v Speaker 2>find everything you need to have a beautiful lawn, a

418
00:27:23.759 --> 00:27:26.759
<v Speaker 2>beautiful landscape, and that includes things to deal with pest,

419
00:27:26.799 --> 00:27:31.200
<v Speaker 2>tweeds and diseases, and it also includes fertilizers. They carry

420
00:27:31.240 --> 00:27:34.920
<v Speaker 2>products from Nitrofoss, they carry products from Microlife, Nelson Turf

421
00:27:35.000 --> 00:27:39.480
<v Speaker 2>Star Medina. You'll find the jars of Nelson plant food there,

422
00:27:39.480 --> 00:27:42.640
<v Speaker 2>You'll find heirloom soil product there. It's just a good

423
00:27:42.680 --> 00:27:45.720
<v Speaker 2>place to go in order to make sure your place

424
00:27:45.799 --> 00:27:49.200
<v Speaker 2>looks as good as it can. And you'll also find

425
00:27:49.279 --> 00:27:52.799
<v Speaker 2>really good advice, good help at D and D Feed,

426
00:27:52.799 --> 00:27:55.640
<v Speaker 2>three miles west of two forty nine in Tomball. We're

427
00:27:55.640 --> 00:27:58.720
<v Speaker 2>going to go now to Kingwood and talk to Lewis Louise.

428
00:27:58.799 --> 00:28:00.960
<v Speaker 2>I believe, Hey Louise, welcome to guarden Line.

429
00:28:01.759 --> 00:28:02.400
<v Speaker 5>Good morning.

430
00:28:02.400 --> 00:28:02.839
<v Speaker 14>How are you.

431
00:28:04.720 --> 00:28:11.000
<v Speaker 2>I'm well okay. What is the secret to keeping bogun

432
00:28:11.079 --> 00:28:17.880
<v Speaker 2>villas blooming all year long or as much as possible? Yeah? Well,

433
00:28:17.960 --> 00:28:21.079
<v Speaker 2>my first answer is, if you figure it out, tell me.

434
00:28:21.640 --> 00:28:24.680
<v Speaker 2>My second answer is the one the one that a

435
00:28:24.759 --> 00:28:27.680
<v Speaker 2>boog and villa's growers will tell you, and that is,

436
00:28:27.960 --> 00:28:31.000
<v Speaker 2>you know, they do well when you're fertilizing them and

437
00:28:31.079 --> 00:28:33.599
<v Speaker 2>encouraging growth and things, but you don't want to overdo it.

438
00:28:33.680 --> 00:28:37.079
<v Speaker 2>Overdoing the fertilizer, over it in the water is often

439
00:28:37.160 --> 00:28:39.839
<v Speaker 2>not a good thing. They need good sunlight. If they're

440
00:28:39.880 --> 00:28:43.119
<v Speaker 2>not in enough sunlight, some people will tell me, well

441
00:28:43.920 --> 00:28:48.759
<v Speaker 2>they're a little pot bound, they bloom better. So those

442
00:28:48.799 --> 00:28:52.119
<v Speaker 2>are all things that are supposed to be helpful in

443
00:28:52.279 --> 00:28:55.079
<v Speaker 2>keeping those things blooming. There is somewhat of a cycle

444
00:28:55.160 --> 00:28:59.200
<v Speaker 2>to them sometimes, and I've noticed that when I've had them,

445
00:28:59.359 --> 00:29:02.000
<v Speaker 2>So I guess the main thing is keep them healthy.

446
00:29:02.200 --> 00:29:05.839
<v Speaker 2>But just watch the excess nitrogen, watch the excess watering,

447
00:29:06.720 --> 00:29:08.680
<v Speaker 2>and don't be afraid to let them get a little

448
00:29:08.720 --> 00:29:10.880
<v Speaker 2>root bound. If you got them in a container that

449
00:29:10.960 --> 00:29:17.640
<v Speaker 2>they can handle, I'm all different colors. Okay, that sounds

450
00:29:17.640 --> 00:29:25.319
<v Speaker 2>beautiful hopefully. All right, well, if go out and talk

451
00:29:25.359 --> 00:29:28.000
<v Speaker 2>to them. You know what I found is that they say,

452
00:29:28.039 --> 00:29:30.079
<v Speaker 2>talk to your plants. Right. I found that if you

453
00:29:30.200 --> 00:29:34.039
<v Speaker 2>threaten plants it also works. That counts as talking to them.

454
00:29:34.319 --> 00:29:36.119
<v Speaker 2>So if I've got a tree that's not doing well,

455
00:29:36.160 --> 00:29:39.039
<v Speaker 2>you just go out, fire up a chainsaw, pull the

456
00:29:39.039 --> 00:29:40.960
<v Speaker 2>trigger a few times to fire it up, and then

457
00:29:41.000 --> 00:29:42.920
<v Speaker 2>turn it off until the tree next time. I'm gonna

458
00:29:42.920 --> 00:29:45.160
<v Speaker 2>come finish a job. If you don't start producing peaches

459
00:29:45.240 --> 00:29:47.279
<v Speaker 2>or whatever, maybe you can figure out something like that

460
00:29:47.319 --> 00:29:51.720
<v Speaker 2>for your boog and villas. I'll stare them straight, so

461
00:29:51.759 --> 00:29:53.839
<v Speaker 2>if they don't bloom, you know, I'll just that's it.

462
00:29:54.079 --> 00:29:57.240
<v Speaker 2>Let's just say I'm not afraid to use this exce

463
00:29:57.240 --> 00:30:02.880
<v Speaker 2>a lot. Appreciate the calles. I appreciate that very much. Okay, Yeah,

464
00:30:02.880 --> 00:30:05.920
<v Speaker 2>we do have fun here on Guardline in Shanty Gardens

526
00:33:32.279 --> 00:33:35.160

527
00:33:35.359 --> 00:33:38.920
<v Speaker 2>too high pressure because it creates a fog that drifts

528
00:33:38.920 --> 00:33:41.200
<v Speaker 2>and you don't want it drifting over. Do it early

529

<v Speaker 18>after hearing her baby's heartbeat on a free ultrasound, she

593
00:36:48.320 --> 00:36:49.159
<v Speaker 18>chose life.

594
00:36:49.239 --> 00:36:52.400
<v Speaker 19>When a mother looks at her child through a sonogram,

595
00:36:52.559 --> 00:36:55.199
<v Speaker 19>that does something to you, you know. I ended up

596
00:36:55.199 --> 00:36:59.360
<v Speaker 19>deciding to keep my son, who is now five years

597
00:36:59.400 --> 00:37:03.480
<v Speaker 19>old today. He's amazing. He brings absolute joy in my heart.

598
00:37:03.639 --> 00:37:06.000
<v Speaker 19>I could not imagine life without him.

599
00:37:06.360 --> 00:37:09.119
<v Speaker 18>By introducing a woman to her baby on ultrasound, a

600
00:37:09.119 --> 00:37:11.800
<v Speaker 18>baby's chance at life doubles if you have the means

611
00:37:57.199 --> 00:38:00.360
<v Speaker 2>patio furniture out there that is kind of looking rusty,

612

00:38:17.480 --> 00:38:20.800
<v Speaker 2>it's like everything you can imagine from this metal art

636
00:39:12.920 --> 00:39:14.400
<v Speaker 2>Hey Nico, welcome to guard Line.

637
00:39:15.760 --> 00:39:18.599
<v Speaker 11>How are you doing? Thanks for taking my call. I

638
00:39:18.639 --> 00:39:22.400
<v Speaker 11>got two questions, Yes, sir, so what is the best

639
00:39:22.480 --> 00:39:25.960
<v Speaker 11>lead pease? I got a bunch of weeds from the

640
00:39:26.000 --> 00:39:28.400
<v Speaker 11>front and the back of my yard because I know

641
00:39:28.480 --> 00:39:31.280
<v Speaker 11>when I cut grass it spreads all over. And then

642
00:39:31.679 --> 00:39:34.679
<v Speaker 11>the second question today, how do I how do I

643
00:39:34.719 --> 00:39:38.159
<v Speaker 11>get my grass growing back from the backyard because last

644
00:39:38.159 --> 00:39:41.719
<v Speaker 11>summer was a dry h don't have.

645
00:39:41.719 --> 00:39:42.360
<v Speaker 5>That much rain.

646
00:39:43.239 --> 00:39:46.880
<v Speaker 11>But it's like you know, patches here, dirt, and then

647
00:39:46.920 --> 00:39:48.719
<v Speaker 11>I have lots of love of grass. So how did

648
00:39:48.719 --> 00:39:50.280
<v Speaker 11>I get him back to going back again?

649
00:39:52.000 --> 00:39:53.000
<v Speaker 2>Good? Good question?

650
00:39:53.519 --> 00:39:53.760
<v Speaker 6>Uh?

651
00:39:53.800 --> 00:39:54.800
<v Speaker 2>So here here's the thing.

652
00:39:55.000 --> 00:39:55.159
<v Speaker 5>Uh.

653
00:39:55.440 --> 00:39:57.679
<v Speaker 2>The first step is getting your lawn as healthy as

654
00:39:57.679 --> 00:39:58.199
<v Speaker 2>you can get it.

655
00:39:58.599 --> 00:39:58.760
<v Speaker 11>Uh.

656
00:39:58.840 --> 00:40:01.519
<v Speaker 2>And and as you're long gets dense, then the weed

657
00:40:01.559 --> 00:40:07.000
<v Speaker 2>problems go down dramatically. Now, if you just fight weeds,

658
00:40:07.000 --> 00:40:08.960
<v Speaker 2>you're just always going to be just fighting weeds. So

659
00:40:09.599 --> 00:40:13.119
<v Speaker 2>we're kind of doing lawn care first, but really at

660
00:40:13.159 --> 00:40:15.280
<v Speaker 2>the same time, you're hitting them on both sides. So

661
00:40:15.440 --> 00:40:17.400
<v Speaker 2>what I would do is, if you go online to

662
00:40:17.480 --> 00:40:19.559
<v Speaker 2>my website, do you have a pin or pencil handy there?

663
00:40:20.800 --> 00:40:20.960
<v Speaker 5>Yes?

664
00:40:22.800 --> 00:40:28.199
<v Speaker 2>Okay, it's gardening with Skip Gardening with Skip dot com.

665
00:40:28.760 --> 00:40:32.079
<v Speaker 2>Look at the lawn care schedule and that is it's

666
00:40:32.119 --> 00:40:34.519
<v Speaker 2>free to download or look on the computer, and it

667
00:40:34.599 --> 00:40:37.039
<v Speaker 2>tells you when to fertilize, what to fertilize, It tells

668
00:40:37.039 --> 00:40:40.360
<v Speaker 2>you about watering and mowing and aeration and other things

669
00:40:40.440 --> 00:40:43.719
<v Speaker 2>like that. And then also look at the weed disease

670
00:40:45.400 --> 00:40:49.280
<v Speaker 2>and insect management schedule. It's a separate schedule. On that one,

671
00:40:49.320 --> 00:40:52.360
<v Speaker 2>you'll see things you put down. We typically put down

672
00:40:52.400 --> 00:40:55.320
<v Speaker 2>twice a year to prevent weed seeds from coming up.

673
00:40:55.440 --> 00:40:57.679
<v Speaker 2>So you can do it now, but you need to

674
00:40:57.719 --> 00:40:59.920
<v Speaker 2>hurry because a lot of your summer weeds have already Germany.

675
00:41:00.559 --> 00:41:03.639
<v Speaker 2>That's a pre emergent and that's a row across there.

676
00:41:04.079 --> 00:41:06.719
<v Speaker 2>Then there's a post emergent row, and that's for killing

677
00:41:06.719 --> 00:41:08.639
<v Speaker 2>the ones you have. So if you'll look at that,

678
00:41:08.719 --> 00:41:10.840
<v Speaker 2>the products are listed on there, but I would get

679
00:41:10.880 --> 00:41:14.280
<v Speaker 2>on it asap because we're getting them. There's a lot

680
00:41:14.280 --> 00:41:17.199
<v Speaker 2>of warm season weeds are already germinated, so then you're

681
00:41:17.559 --> 00:41:20.320
<v Speaker 2>left with trying to spray them after they're up, but

682
00:41:20.960 --> 00:41:24.719
<v Speaker 2>mo regularly and that mow water and fertilize is so important.

683
00:41:24.880 --> 00:41:27.039
<v Speaker 2>And then the products are on there, and if you

684
00:41:27.079 --> 00:41:29.599
<v Speaker 2>ever have questions, you can call the show, get an

685
00:41:29.639 --> 00:41:32.880
<v Speaker 2>email and send me pictures of the specific weeds you have,

686
00:41:33.960 --> 00:41:36.719
<v Speaker 2>you know, because there's only one hundred thousand weeds out there,

687
00:41:37.039 --> 00:41:39.719
<v Speaker 2>and so if you're send me the pictures of them.

688
00:41:39.840 --> 00:41:42.159
<v Speaker 2>Then you can call in and we can talk specifically

689
00:41:42.239 --> 00:41:44.280
<v Speaker 2>about Okay, this is what that is and here's what

690
00:41:44.320 --> 00:41:46.360
<v Speaker 2>you put on it. And I think that would be

691
00:41:46.440 --> 00:41:50.079
<v Speaker 2>the ongoing best approach after you do the schedule and

692
00:41:50.119 --> 00:41:50.920
<v Speaker 2>start following that.

693
00:41:53.239 --> 00:41:55.800
<v Speaker 11>Thank you very much. Good all right, I appreciate it.

694
00:41:56.119 --> 00:41:58.079
<v Speaker 2>You bet, You're welcome to you. I'm going to put

695
00:41:58.079 --> 00:42:00.119
<v Speaker 2>you on hold, and if you want to send some

696
00:42:00.280 --> 00:42:03.880
<v Speaker 2>pictures or something in just keep Jonathan'll give you that

697
00:42:03.920 --> 00:42:06.920
<v Speaker 2>email and we can we can be in touch that

698
00:42:07.000 --> 00:42:10.440
<v Speaker 2>way to help. All right, Well, that is so true.

699
00:42:11.360 --> 00:42:14.920
<v Speaker 2>Weed control is quite a challenge, but we can do it.

700
00:42:15.400 --> 00:42:17.880
<v Speaker 2>Leake City Feed is done in League City. Of course.

701
00:42:17.920 --> 00:42:20.000
<v Speaker 2>They're on Highway three, just a few blocks south of

702
00:42:20.000 --> 00:42:23.000
<v Speaker 2>the Highway ninety six. They serve that whole area. I mean,

703
00:42:23.039 --> 00:42:24.639
<v Speaker 2>I don't care if you're in League City or Santa

704

730
00:43:42.000 --> 00:43:43.360
<v Speaker 20>Good morning, thank you.

731
00:43:44.239 --> 00:43:44.960
<v Speaker 5>I have a question.

732
00:43:45.000 --> 00:43:48.840
<v Speaker 21>So I have a philodendron in the back of my

733
00:43:48.960 --> 00:43:52.159
<v Speaker 21>yard that's been there about thirty five years. Really big,

734
00:43:52.360 --> 00:43:54.679
<v Speaker 21>you know, goes to almost eight feet tall.

735
00:43:56.079 --> 00:43:57.440
<v Speaker 2>It's okay, great.

736
00:43:58.119 --> 00:44:00.719
<v Speaker 21>The issue is last year I had a hollow trees

737
00:44:00.760 --> 00:44:03.239
<v Speaker 21>start growing in the middle of it, and we didn't

738
00:44:03.239 --> 00:44:06.559
<v Speaker 21>realize it because I'm so dense. And then we saw

739
00:44:06.599 --> 00:44:09.079
<v Speaker 21>it last year and I tried to chop it as

740
00:44:09.119 --> 00:44:10.679
<v Speaker 21>low as I could to the grounds, and I tried

741
00:44:10.719 --> 00:44:13.320
<v Speaker 21>to put a brush killer on this I'm a little

742
00:44:13.320 --> 00:44:16.039
<v Speaker 21>stump part of it and hoped that i'd gotten rid

743
00:44:16.079 --> 00:44:19.960
<v Speaker 21>of it. This year, it's back. It's back and growing up.

744
00:44:20.000 --> 00:44:22.679
<v Speaker 21>It's three to four inches you know, wide, and I'm

745
00:44:22.679 --> 00:44:24.320
<v Speaker 21>trying to figure out how to get rid of that

746
00:44:24.480 --> 00:44:26.519
<v Speaker 21>without hurting the philodendron.

747
00:44:27.480 --> 00:44:32.679
<v Speaker 2>And I can't dig it out. So yeah, I'm not

748
00:44:32.760 --> 00:44:36.000
<v Speaker 2>sure where where that effort went wrong. But you were

749
00:44:36.000 --> 00:44:39.679
<v Speaker 2>on the right track. So I'm going to First of all,

750
00:44:39.719 --> 00:44:41.320
<v Speaker 2>I just want to tell you. On my website is

751
00:44:41.360 --> 00:44:45.360
<v Speaker 2>something called controlling woody Weeds in the Landscape, and it

752
00:44:45.400 --> 00:44:47.679
<v Speaker 2>gives you the details of what to do, but you

753
00:44:47.800 --> 00:44:49.880
<v Speaker 2>need to use it. You need to make the cut.

754
00:44:50.320 --> 00:44:56.360
<v Speaker 2>This year again and immediately take a little poam brush

755
00:44:56.480 --> 00:45:00.039
<v Speaker 2>or something and dab the straight weed killer right on

756
00:45:00.159 --> 00:45:04.119
<v Speaker 2>to the cut stump surface, that fresh cut surface. Just

757
00:45:04.159 --> 00:45:06.880
<v Speaker 2>dab it right on there, straight from the bottle. And

758
00:45:07.000 --> 00:45:10.480
<v Speaker 2>the product you're looking for is something can anything containing

759
00:45:11.880 --> 00:45:16.880
<v Speaker 2>triclop here it's t R I C l O P

760
00:45:17.199 --> 00:45:19.639
<v Speaker 2>y R. But it's on that publication if you just

761
00:45:19.679 --> 00:45:20.760
<v Speaker 2>want to go look at it. You don't have to

762
00:45:20.760 --> 00:45:23.119
<v Speaker 2>remember all the things I'm saying. It tells you how

763
00:45:23.159 --> 00:45:25.719
<v Speaker 2>to do it, but it'll go down in there. Now

764
00:45:25.760 --> 00:45:28.440
<v Speaker 2>if it's a if it's a thinner shoot, if it's

765
00:45:28.440 --> 00:45:31.159
<v Speaker 2>not like not like an old trunk with big thick

766
00:45:31.239 --> 00:45:33.800
<v Speaker 2>bark on it. But if it's a thinner, smoother surface

767
00:45:34.039 --> 00:45:38.199
<v Speaker 2>around the trunk, you can rub that triclop pier on

768
00:45:38.280 --> 00:45:41.199
<v Speaker 2>the sides of the trunk too, and that just gets

769
00:45:41.280 --> 00:45:41.920
<v Speaker 2>more of it in.

770
00:45:43.280 --> 00:45:46.199
<v Speaker 21>Do I need to put a bag over it over

771
00:45:46.239 --> 00:45:49.280
<v Speaker 21>the stump with the solution and the rubber band or anything.

772
00:45:49.320 --> 00:45:52.039
<v Speaker 21>I'm sure didn't hurt, but I don't know, Okay, I've

773
00:45:52.039 --> 00:45:52.599
<v Speaker 21>never tried that.

774
00:45:52.719 --> 00:45:53.039
<v Speaker 22>No, you.

775
00:45:54.559 --> 00:45:56.239
<v Speaker 2>Don't need to do that, and don't do it like

776
00:45:56.280 --> 00:45:58.159
<v Speaker 2>when it's going to rain in five minutes, you know.

777
00:45:58.239 --> 00:46:01.840
<v Speaker 2>And but but if if you do it, you gotta

778
00:46:01.880 --> 00:46:04.760
<v Speaker 2>do it real soon. Don't do it the next day,

779
00:46:04.960 --> 00:46:08.159
<v Speaker 2>because you want that to be fresh tissues that are

780
00:46:08.320 --> 00:46:12.000
<v Speaker 2>taken in that chemical and it will work. But you

781
00:46:12.079 --> 00:46:14.159
<v Speaker 2>got to use the tri compare and you just have

782
00:46:14.199 --> 00:46:17.679
<v Speaker 2>to stay on that. That's the best thing other than

783
00:46:17.719 --> 00:46:19.719
<v Speaker 2>that you're going in there trying to dig it out,

784
00:46:19.800 --> 00:46:22.000
<v Speaker 2>which is not a good thing with that Philodendron.

785
00:46:22.880 --> 00:46:24.079
<v Speaker 21>Okay, thanks so much.

786
00:46:25.639 --> 00:46:30.559
<v Speaker 2>All right, thank you appreciate your call very much. Absolutely.

787
00:46:31.639 --> 00:46:36.880
<v Speaker 2>Nitrofive Sweet Green is their organic lawn fertilizer. Now you

788
00:46:37.039 --> 00:46:39.760
<v Speaker 2>use it on things other than lawns, but it's a

789
00:46:39.800 --> 00:46:42.920
<v Speaker 2>higher nitrogen product, especially for an organic. It's eleven percent

790
00:46:43.039 --> 00:46:47.679
<v Speaker 2>nitrogen and it reacts with water and basically the microbes

791
00:46:47.719 --> 00:46:50.679
<v Speaker 2>and the soil love this stuff because they love things

792
00:46:50.719 --> 00:46:55.719
<v Speaker 2>like molasses for example, that's sugar compounds, those carbon chains

793
00:46:55.760 --> 00:47:00.280
<v Speaker 2>that help feed and stimulate them, and basically they turn

794
00:47:00.559 --> 00:47:05.320
<v Speaker 2>that product into the nutrient that plants need. Specifically, the

795
00:47:05.480 --> 00:47:09.639
<v Speaker 2>nitrogen you get that boost from Sweet Green smells wonderful

796
00:47:09.840 --> 00:47:12.400
<v Speaker 2>because it's kind of your smell of molasses to me.

797
00:47:13.199 --> 00:47:14.960
<v Speaker 2>But you're gonna find it a lot of places. You

798
00:47:15.000 --> 00:47:18.000
<v Speaker 2>know nitrofoss products, you're gonna you're gonna be able to

799
00:47:18.039 --> 00:47:21.119
<v Speaker 2>find those at Hiden and Feed on Stubner Airline, Ace

800
00:47:21.159 --> 00:47:23.719
<v Speaker 2>Hardware City on Memorial Drives another place. And then there's

801

<v Speaker 2>Sinkle Ranch on Mason Road. They also carry nitrofos products there.

803
00:47:33.199 --> 00:47:36.599
<v Speaker 2>I was in my flower beds taking care of some

804
00:47:36.719 --> 00:47:39.960
<v Speaker 2>things and just stirring the mulch up and stuff, and

805
00:47:40.000 --> 00:47:42.000
<v Speaker 2>I was just thinking it was a It actually was

806
00:47:42.000 --> 00:47:44.400

807

00:50:23.880 --> 00:50:25.920

852
00:50:25.920 --> 00:50:28.880
<v Speaker 2>issues and challenges are you're dealing with? Or I guess

853

<v Speaker 2>we will even allow a little bit of bragging if

854
00:50:31.239 --> 00:50:35.480
<v Speaker 2>you if you wish to tell me about the number

855
00:50:35.519 --> 00:50:37.800
<v Speaker 2>of bushels the peaches you got off the tree last year,

856
00:50:38.039 --> 00:50:39.800
<v Speaker 2>well we can tolerate a little bit of that too,

857
00:50:39.960 --> 00:50:42.760
<v Speaker 2>but only in moderation. Only in moderation.

858
00:50:43.800 --> 00:50:43.920
<v Speaker 10>Uh.

859
00:50:44.480 --> 00:50:47.159
<v Speaker 2>I love going to Jenny Forest down in the Richmond

860
00:50:47.239 --> 00:50:50.280
<v Speaker 2>Rosenberg area. It's the garden Center that if you're going

861
00:50:50.400 --> 00:50:53.400
<v Speaker 2>from Richmond to sugar Land. It's off to the right

862
00:50:54.079 --> 00:50:58.280
<v Speaker 2>on FM twenty seven fifty nine and tending Forest by

863
00:50:58.280 --> 00:50:59.519
<v Speaker 2>the way. Poor I forget. I want to give you

864
00:50:59.599 --> 00:51:03.800
<v Speaker 2>the the website because you definitely want to check out.

865
00:51:03.800 --> 00:51:06.760
<v Speaker 2>Their website is awesome, lots of good information on there.

866
00:51:07.320 --> 00:51:12.760
<v Speaker 2>Enchanted Forest, Richmond, TX. Don't forget the TX. Enchanted Forest Richmond,

867
00:51:12.800 --> 00:51:17.039
<v Speaker 2>TX dot com. That's the website. Now. They specialize in

868
00:51:17.039 --> 00:51:19.760
<v Speaker 2>all kinds of things and they have right now is

869
00:51:19.840 --> 00:51:22.159
<v Speaker 2>the time you've heard me talk about Chinese fringe trees.

870
00:51:22.199 --> 00:51:25.199
<v Speaker 2>It's my I guess it may be my single favorite

871
00:51:25.239 --> 00:51:29.760
<v Speaker 2>spring blooming tree right now. It is gorgeous, just billows

872
00:51:29.800 --> 00:51:34.599
<v Speaker 2>of white flowers with a lovely light fragrance that's really nice. Well,

873
00:51:34.639 --> 00:51:36.559
<v Speaker 2>they've got them and they're in bloom and you can

874
00:51:36.559 --> 00:51:38.440
<v Speaker 2>see what I'm talking about. But they also have one

875
00:51:38.440 --> 00:51:41.440
<v Speaker 2>there at the garden Center. It's kind of off on

876
00:51:41.519 --> 00:51:42.639
<v Speaker 2>the side. I just said, I want to see your

877
00:51:42.719 --> 00:51:44.679
<v Speaker 2>Chinese friench tree if you don't run into it on

878
00:51:44.719 --> 00:51:49.239
<v Speaker 2>the way in. It is so beautiful. Chinese fringe is

879
00:51:49.400 --> 00:51:53.320
<v Speaker 2>just you need one of these. And another reason I

880
00:51:53.400 --> 00:51:56.719
<v Speaker 2>like Chinese French, by the way, is because our lot

881
00:51:56.880 --> 00:51:59.639
<v Speaker 2>sizes have shrunk over the decades. You know, back you

882
00:51:59.679 --> 00:52:03.480
<v Speaker 2>go back in the sixties and seventies, lot sizes around

883
00:52:03.599 --> 00:52:05.800
<v Speaker 2>third of an acre or something. I mean, they're huge,

884
00:52:05.880 --> 00:52:09.360
<v Speaker 2>huge lots. And now you can reach out your window

885
00:52:09.400 --> 00:52:12.000
<v Speaker 2>and close your neighbors blinds. The houses are so close

886
00:52:12.039 --> 00:52:15.760
<v Speaker 2>together in many, many neighborhoods. A Chinese fringe tree is

887
00:52:15.800 --> 00:52:19.159
<v Speaker 2>a medium sized tree and it grows at a moderately

888
00:52:21.000 --> 00:52:23.760
<v Speaker 2>medium I say medium rate is probably a good way

889
00:52:23.800 --> 00:52:25.199
<v Speaker 2>to do it, and you fertilize, take care of it.

890
00:52:25.239 --> 00:52:28.960
<v Speaker 2>No grow faster, but anyway, it doesn't just take over

891
00:52:29.039 --> 00:52:31.239
<v Speaker 2>like three houses. You know, you plant a life oak

892
00:52:31.280 --> 00:52:34.360
<v Speaker 2>tree in your yard and four neighbors get to enjoy it,

893
00:52:34.400 --> 00:52:36.880
<v Speaker 2>you know, because it's so big. Chinese fringe is not

894
00:52:36.960 --> 00:52:38.960
<v Speaker 2>that way. But go check it out. You'll see them there.

895
00:52:39.119 --> 00:52:41.639
<v Speaker 2>While you're there, check out the new desert roses that

896
00:52:41.639 --> 00:52:43.679
<v Speaker 2>they just got in. They're beautiful. For those of you

897
00:52:43.800 --> 00:52:48.840
<v Speaker 2>succulent lovers. They have the plant called Lithops Lithops. Now,

898
00:52:48.920 --> 00:52:51.559
<v Speaker 2>I'm not going to try to describe it to you guys,

899
00:52:51.599 --> 00:52:54.119
<v Speaker 2>but to me, it looks like if you're watching Star

900
00:52:54.159 --> 00:52:56.199
<v Speaker 2>Wars and they land on some planet and it's like,

901
00:52:56.280 --> 00:53:00.519
<v Speaker 2>what is that? That's a lithops. They're pretty cool. Folks

902
00:53:00.599 --> 00:53:02.760
<v Speaker 2>love those. By the way, run by there this morning,

903
00:53:02.840 --> 00:53:06.880
<v Speaker 2>right after the show UH and UH Monarch program will

904
00:53:06.920 --> 00:53:09.679
<v Speaker 2>be going on with Aaron Mills from Houston Botanical Guard

905
00:53:10.360 --> 00:53:13.800
<v Speaker 2>talking about monarchs. And they also had their food truck there.

906
00:53:13.880 --> 00:53:15.719
<v Speaker 2>In fact, you can get fueled up at the at

907
00:53:15.719 --> 00:53:18.920
<v Speaker 2>the Scotti Saloon food truck before you run over to

908
00:53:18.920 --> 00:53:25.920
<v Speaker 2>see me seeing a multch later that afternoon. So Enchanted Forest, Richmond,

909
00:53:25.960 --> 00:53:28.840
<v Speaker 2>TX dot com. I just mentioned a few plans, but

910
00:53:29.079 --> 00:53:32.239
<v Speaker 2>anything you want you're gonna find there. They are always

911
00:53:32.239 --> 00:53:36.400
<v Speaker 2>stocked up with cool stuff. So I was working in

912
00:53:36.440 --> 00:53:39.639
<v Speaker 2>the yard. I was telling you about that, and uh the.

913
00:53:41.360 --> 00:53:42.920
<v Speaker 5>Uh pull up.

914
00:53:43.000 --> 00:53:45.280
<v Speaker 2>I was pulling some weeds and things. But I'm also

915
00:53:45.519 --> 00:53:49.320
<v Speaker 2>redoing some beds. I have been building up some beds

916
00:53:49.320 --> 00:53:52.719
<v Speaker 2>with quality soil. Yes, I practice what I preach sometimes.

917
00:53:53.280 --> 00:53:56.239
<v Speaker 2>In this case, I got high quality soil mixes, put

918
00:53:56.320 --> 00:53:58.519
<v Speaker 2>them in, mix the beds up, got them, got them

919
00:53:58.559 --> 00:54:00.519
<v Speaker 2>ready to go, and then top them off the mulch.

920
00:54:00.920 --> 00:54:03.199
<v Speaker 2>Because I'm not gonna plant just yet. I got some

921
00:54:03.280 --> 00:54:05.599
<v Speaker 2>of the things to take care of. I don't like

922
00:54:05.679 --> 00:54:08.039
<v Speaker 2>to come in after I've made a beautiful bed and

923
00:54:08.159 --> 00:54:11.559
<v Speaker 2>watch it, over two weeks or so turn into a

924
00:54:11.679 --> 00:54:14.880
<v Speaker 2>chia pet because every weed under the sun has sprouted.

925
00:54:14.960 --> 00:54:17.519
<v Speaker 2>Now I got this green, fuzzy bed instead of a

926
00:54:17.639 --> 00:54:19.960
<v Speaker 2>nice ready to go, I throw a mulch on top.

927
00:54:20.079 --> 00:54:24.199
<v Speaker 2>I'll do that in the garden beds too, between seasons. Anyway.

928
00:54:24.599 --> 00:54:28.159
<v Speaker 2>That mulch looks really good. Back there, we were getting

929
00:54:28.199 --> 00:54:30.320
<v Speaker 2>some things set up, so it's just about time for

930
00:54:30.360 --> 00:54:31.920
<v Speaker 2>me to get back if I can get through all

931
00:54:31.920 --> 00:54:35.159
<v Speaker 2>the weekend activities and take off on that again. I

932
00:54:35.280 --> 00:54:37.559
<v Speaker 2>got the orchard set up ready to go. There's a

933
00:54:37.559 --> 00:54:41.119
<v Speaker 2>couple of citrus I'm putting in and those are sitting

934
00:54:41.199 --> 00:54:44.679
<v Speaker 2>on the front porch, going okay, any day now, any

935
00:54:44.760 --> 00:54:48.360
<v Speaker 2>day now, So we'll get those in this week as well.

936
00:54:49.599 --> 00:54:51.559
<v Speaker 2>I don't have a lot of room on the side

937
00:54:51.599 --> 00:54:53.960
<v Speaker 2>of the house, and so it's probably at nine feet

938
00:54:54.000 --> 00:54:57.039
<v Speaker 2>from the house to the fence. So I'm looking at okay,

939
00:54:57.039 --> 00:54:58.599
<v Speaker 2>how can I grow stuff? So I got a little

940
00:54:58.679 --> 00:55:01.920
<v Speaker 2>raised planting bed, only a little bit of one of

941
00:55:01.920 --> 00:55:06.480
<v Speaker 2>those veggo beds about eleven inches high, and I've situated

942
00:55:06.480 --> 00:55:09.840
<v Speaker 2>the trees so that they get the most possible sunlight

943
00:55:09.960 --> 00:55:12.280
<v Speaker 2>as the sun is traveling, and then as they grow up,

944
00:55:12.440 --> 00:55:14.119
<v Speaker 2>they're going to be up to the eaves of the

945
00:55:14.159 --> 00:55:17.760
<v Speaker 2>house and then some the sunlight they'll get many more

946
00:55:17.800 --> 00:55:19.679
<v Speaker 2>hours of it from there. So I'm kind of squeezing

947
00:55:19.719 --> 00:55:21.760
<v Speaker 2>them in there a little bit. But I love fruit trees.

948
00:55:21.800 --> 00:55:24.239
<v Speaker 2>You got some peaches and some citrus going in. I

949
00:55:24.360 --> 00:55:27.320
<v Speaker 2>got a fig going into as well. So for those

950
00:55:27.400 --> 00:55:30.400
<v Speaker 2>of you that have small lots, there are ways to

951
00:55:30.480 --> 00:55:33.599
<v Speaker 2>go about it. Don't be afraid to try something a

952
00:55:33.599 --> 00:55:37.519
<v Speaker 2>little different. We don't do espalier pruning here for fruit trees,

953
00:55:37.559 --> 00:55:41.039
<v Speaker 2>but you go to some part especially like European, some

954
00:55:41.079 --> 00:55:44.199
<v Speaker 2>of the older European gardens. You see the little garden

955
00:55:44.239 --> 00:55:46.280
<v Speaker 2>area with a stone fence around it, and there's this

956
00:55:46.400 --> 00:55:49.519
<v Speaker 2>tree that's been trained against a wall growing apples or

957
00:55:49.559 --> 00:55:53.239
<v Speaker 2>pears or something that's espalier, and you can do that here.

958
00:55:53.440 --> 00:55:55.840
<v Speaker 2>You just just takes some work. And so if you

959
00:55:56.039 --> 00:55:58.599
<v Speaker 2>love being out in the garden and tending things and

960
00:55:58.639 --> 00:56:01.199
<v Speaker 2>you don't have a big space, that's one way to

961
00:56:01.280 --> 00:56:04.440
<v Speaker 2>get more out of a smaller space. So I'm not

962
00:56:04.519 --> 00:56:07.079
<v Speaker 2>doing a value on mine. I know what would happen there.

963
00:56:07.119 --> 00:56:09.119
<v Speaker 2>I would not be able to get back to it

964
00:56:09.199 --> 00:56:10.960
<v Speaker 2>and take care of it like I want. But one

965
00:56:10.960 --> 00:56:13.239
<v Speaker 2>of these days I'm gonna try doing that. I've got

966
00:56:13.280 --> 00:56:15.280
<v Speaker 2>a little area where I'm gonna plant a grape and

967
00:56:15.480 --> 00:56:18.800
<v Speaker 2>the arbor is the shade for a sitting area. So

968
00:56:19.159 --> 00:56:21.280
<v Speaker 2>that's another way to get more out of your space.

969
00:56:22.880 --> 00:56:25.960
<v Speaker 2>Nitro Fuss Imperial is their product that you put down

970
00:56:26.599 --> 00:56:32.280
<v Speaker 2>for fast release nutrients into the soil. Fast release it is.

971
00:56:32.400 --> 00:56:36.800
<v Speaker 2>It dissolves the way and the fifteen five ten product

972
00:56:37.199 --> 00:56:39.679
<v Speaker 2>goes right into the ground and grass takes off. And

973
00:56:39.760 --> 00:56:41.639
<v Speaker 2>right now your grass will jump out of the ground

974
00:56:41.639 --> 00:56:44.360
<v Speaker 2>with that because they it is warming up enough to

975
00:56:44.360 --> 00:56:47.000
<v Speaker 2>where that grass is taking off and happy to grow.

976
00:56:47.280 --> 00:56:51.119
<v Speaker 2>Nitrofus Imperial is the red bag from Nitrofoss in the

977
00:56:51.159 --> 00:56:55.159
<v Speaker 2>perfect ratio for the way turf grass takes up nutrients

978
00:56:55.159 --> 00:56:57.159
<v Speaker 2>at three one to two ratio. You're going to find

979
00:56:57.239 --> 00:57:01.119
<v Speaker 2>nitro Fross products at Bearings Hardware on Best That also

980
00:57:01.239 --> 00:57:04.039
<v Speaker 2>at the Barings Hardware on West Timer And I was

981
00:57:04.119 --> 00:57:07.639
<v Speaker 2>just talking to you about enchanted forests, well enchanted forests

982
00:57:07.719 --> 00:57:11.360
<v Speaker 2>down on FM twenty seven fifty nine in the Richmond

983
00:57:11.440 --> 00:57:15.320
<v Speaker 2>Rosenberg area. They carry nitrofrost products as well. Time for

984
00:57:15.360 --> 00:57:17.159
<v Speaker 2>me to go to a quick break. We'll be right

985
00:57:17.199 --> 00:57:30.519
<v Speaker 2>back alrighty. Well, good Saturday morning on a great day

986
00:57:30.519 --> 00:57:33.360
<v Speaker 2>for gardening. Oh my goodness. We went through all this

987
00:57:33.519 --> 00:57:37.239
<v Speaker 2>rain and now here's the sign. You should be outside

988
00:57:37.320 --> 00:57:39.840
<v Speaker 2>right now listening to the guard Line on your phone

989
00:57:40.800 --> 00:57:44.320
<v Speaker 2>that is sitting inside. I know I'm meddling, but just

990
00:57:44.480 --> 00:57:47.320
<v Speaker 2>know this that I think the best way to listen

991
00:57:47.360 --> 00:57:50.039
<v Speaker 2>to garden Line is to do it on your phone.

992
00:57:50.079 --> 00:57:53.360
<v Speaker 2>Through the iHeart radio app. You can find the Guardline

993
00:57:53.360 --> 00:57:55.320
<v Speaker 2>show sign in. You can listen live, you can listen

994
00:57:55.320 --> 00:57:57.599
<v Speaker 2>to past shows, so you can flip that phone into

995
00:57:57.639 --> 00:58:00.519
<v Speaker 2>your pocket. Get out there and be I don't know,

996
00:58:00.639 --> 00:58:03.639
<v Speaker 2>pulling weeds like I like to do in the garden,

997
00:58:04.039 --> 00:58:05.599
<v Speaker 2>or whatever you want to do. Maybe you run across

998
00:58:05.599 --> 00:58:07.599
<v Speaker 2>a bug, take a picture of it, email it to me.

999
00:58:07.639 --> 00:58:10.960
<v Speaker 2>We'll talk about it live from your garden. It's garden

1000
00:58:11.000 --> 00:58:14.039
<v Speaker 2>Line not kind of cool. One of these days, somebody's

1001
00:58:14.039 --> 00:58:15.599
<v Speaker 2>gonna call me and tell me they're doing that. I'm not.

1002
00:58:15.639 --> 00:58:17.719
<v Speaker 2>I've yet to have someone tell me they're out in

1003
00:58:17.719 --> 00:58:20.320
<v Speaker 2>the garden listening. But I think that's a great way

1004
00:58:20.360 --> 00:58:23.400
<v Speaker 2>to go. Of course, if you start at the beginning

1005
00:58:23.440 --> 00:58:25.559
<v Speaker 2>of the show, you'll need headlamps to be able to

1006
00:58:25.599 --> 00:58:30.239
<v Speaker 2>see where you're going. Out there. The RCW Garden Center

1007
00:58:30.400 --> 00:58:33.679
<v Speaker 2>or RCW Nursers there at the corner of the Beltway

1008
00:58:33.719 --> 00:58:37.519
<v Speaker 2>eight Sam Houston Parkway and two forty nine Tumbull Parkway.

1009
00:58:38.000 --> 00:58:41.840
<v Speaker 2>Right there at the intersection, they have a wonderful stock plant.

1010
00:58:41.920 --> 00:58:44.119
<v Speaker 2>Right now, I was looking at some of the things

1011
00:58:44.239 --> 00:58:47.440
<v Speaker 2>that they have going on in terms of color and whatnot.

1012
00:58:48.079 --> 00:58:53.119
<v Speaker 2>Lots of lantanna and verbena, beautiful baskets of everything from petunias.

1013
00:58:53.360 --> 00:58:56.719
<v Speaker 2>That has some bougainvilla baskets that are awesome. And by

1014
00:58:56.719 --> 00:58:58.719
<v Speaker 2>the way, while I'm talking about boo and villas, they

1015
00:58:58.719 --> 00:59:02.119
<v Speaker 2>have boogain villas stand too. Now, a standard is a

1016
00:59:02.159 --> 00:59:04.840
<v Speaker 2>plant that has been trained that normally is look more

1017
00:59:04.880 --> 00:59:07.119
<v Speaker 2>of like a bush, but they train it to a

1018
00:59:07.159 --> 00:59:09.599
<v Speaker 2>single trunk up to a certain height and then they

1019
00:59:09.679 --> 00:59:11.760
<v Speaker 2>let it have its top, which is called a head

1020
00:59:11.800 --> 00:59:15.239
<v Speaker 2>on the standard. So you can do that with the roses.

1021
00:59:15.280 --> 00:59:17.280
<v Speaker 2>You can have roses that are trunk coming up and

1022
00:59:17.320 --> 00:59:19.679
<v Speaker 2>maybe you know, three feet off the ground. Here's a

1023
00:59:19.760 --> 00:59:21.800
<v Speaker 2>here is a head on top of those in the

1024
00:59:21.800 --> 00:59:23.400
<v Speaker 2>same way with book and vis you need to see

1025
00:59:23.440 --> 00:59:28.079
<v Speaker 2>their boog veas they are unbelievably outstanding red buds, another

1026
00:59:28.239 --> 00:59:32.639
<v Speaker 2>great spring blooming tree. And then of course it's RCW roses.

1027
00:59:33.159 --> 00:59:36.639
<v Speaker 2>Rcw's selection of roses is just like none other. It

1028
00:59:36.719 --> 00:59:40.159
<v Speaker 2>is outstanding and they're blooming now, they're beautiful. It's a

1029
00:59:40.239 --> 00:59:42.880
<v Speaker 2>perfect time to go pick out the rose you like

1030
00:59:42.920 --> 00:59:45.159
<v Speaker 2>because you don't just look at a picture on a card.

1031
00:59:45.599 --> 00:59:48.400
<v Speaker 2>You can actually see the rose blooming. And they are

1032
00:59:48.519 --> 00:59:53.199
<v Speaker 2>rose experts and rosarians across Easton know about RCW and

1033
00:59:53.400 --> 00:59:57.679
<v Speaker 2>they're outstanding stock of roses. Now that again, they're between

1034
00:59:57.960 --> 00:59:59.960
<v Speaker 2>are at the corner of Tombaugh Parkway and be wait.

<v Speaker 2>They're open Monday through Saturday eight to five and Sunday

1037

<v Speaker 2>you go when you want to find whatever you're looking for.

1038
01:00:11.440 --> 01:00:13.920
<v Speaker 2>And I call them get it, got it, because if

1039
01:00:13.960 --> 01:00:17.519
<v Speaker 2>they don't have it, they probably can get it, right,

1040
01:00:17.719 --> 01:00:19.480
<v Speaker 2>you see what I'm saying. They can order and bring

1041
01:00:19.519 --> 01:00:20.079
<v Speaker 2>it in for you.

1042
01:00:20.480 --> 01:00:20.599
<v Speaker 11>Now.

1043
01:00:20.639 --> 01:00:24.519
<v Speaker 2>They carry my night Frost Microlife. They carry Nelson's Turf

1044
01:00:24.599 --> 01:00:27.320
<v Speaker 2>Star line and you know, so it's the brown stuff

1045
01:00:27.320 --> 01:00:29.440
<v Speaker 2>before green stuff. When you go home with your plant,

1046
01:00:29.480 --> 01:00:32.000
<v Speaker 2>go home with your product, so you're ready to go.

1047
01:00:33.960 --> 01:00:37.920
<v Speaker 2>RCW nursries dot com. That's where you go to find

1048
01:00:37.960 --> 01:00:46.159
<v Speaker 2>out more information. I was talking to someone yesterday about generators.

1049
01:00:46.440 --> 01:00:50.360
<v Speaker 2>We were just discussing how gosh the last two seasons,

1050
01:00:51.199 --> 01:00:55.119
<v Speaker 2>the storms have been incredible in coming in and knocking

1051
01:00:55.159 --> 01:00:57.679
<v Speaker 2>power out for a long period of time. Some of

1052
01:00:57.719 --> 01:01:00.519
<v Speaker 2>my families in the Houston area that was out for

1053
01:01:00.800 --> 01:01:05.280
<v Speaker 2>over two weeks without power. And the Quality Home Products

1054
01:01:05.280 --> 01:01:08.039
<v Speaker 2>of Texas is the only place that I would send

1055
01:01:08.039 --> 01:01:11.920
<v Speaker 2>somebody for a generator. And the reason is number one.

1056
01:01:11.960 --> 01:01:16.760
<v Speaker 2>They carry the Generac automatic stem by generator, which is cool.

1057
01:01:17.400 --> 01:01:20.440
<v Speaker 2>You basically have a generator that when the power goes out,

1058
01:01:20.480 --> 01:01:22.000
<v Speaker 2>it comes on. I mean you can be sitting there

1059
01:01:22.039 --> 01:01:26.159
<v Speaker 2>in your easy chair reading the paper and power goes out,

1060
01:01:26.239 --> 01:01:28.360
<v Speaker 2>boom comes right back on. You never had to even

1061
01:01:28.360 --> 01:01:31.920
<v Speaker 2>get up. But the reason I recommend Quality Home is

1062
01:01:31.920 --> 01:01:36.400
<v Speaker 2>not just a generator, it's this service that they give.

1063
01:01:37.000 --> 01:01:40.840
<v Speaker 2>They are the number one generator servicer in the Houston

1064
01:01:41.039 --> 01:01:46.480
<v Speaker 2>area period, So you secure your home's power, rain, snow, sunshine,

1065
01:01:46.519 --> 01:01:49.199
<v Speaker 2>no matter what's going on, life goes on. Even when

1066
01:01:49.199 --> 01:01:52.480
<v Speaker 2>the power stops and hurricane season is just around the corner,

1067
01:01:52.519 --> 01:01:54.159
<v Speaker 2>it's coming up. It's not like you walk in there

1068
01:01:54.159 --> 01:01:55.559
<v Speaker 2>one day and go home and they set it up

1069
01:01:55.599 --> 01:01:57.480
<v Speaker 2>that day. You need to call them, you need to

1070
01:01:57.519 --> 01:01:59.760
<v Speaker 2>go in. They're going to take time to make sure,

1071
01:02:00.000 --> 01:02:02.400
<v Speaker 2>ask you questions, make sure you get the generator that

1072
01:02:02.519 --> 01:02:05.639
<v Speaker 2>fits your needs, that does what you want it to

1073
01:02:05.679 --> 01:02:09.039
<v Speaker 2>be able to do. They're a standout organization when it

1074
01:02:09.079 --> 01:02:14.719
<v Speaker 2>comes to reliability, integrity, honesty, transparency with every client. That

1075
01:02:14.840 --> 01:02:17.320
<v Speaker 2>is who they are. That's why they have fourteen thousand

1076
01:02:17.320 --> 01:02:20.320
<v Speaker 2>plus five star reviews, and that's why they keep winning

1077
01:02:20.360 --> 01:02:23.679
<v Speaker 2>awards for customer service, like the Pinnacle Award, the Better

1078
01:02:23.760 --> 01:02:28.960
<v Speaker 2>Business Bureau's most prestigium prestigious. That's easy for me to

1079
01:02:29.000 --> 01:02:32.440
<v Speaker 2>say customer Service Award they've wonted eight times. I mean,

1080
01:02:32.519 --> 01:02:35.400
<v Speaker 2>this isn't just they got lucky one year. It's how

1081
01:02:35.440 --> 01:02:39.440
<v Speaker 2>they do business at Quality Home. You can call them

1082
01:02:39.679 --> 01:02:44.440
<v Speaker 2>seven to one three quality seven one three quality, or

1083
01:02:44.559 --> 01:02:48.039
<v Speaker 2>if you want to go to the website qualitytx dot com.

1084
01:02:48.039 --> 01:02:50.440
<v Speaker 2>But whatever you do, now is the time to be

1085
01:02:50.480 --> 01:02:54.880
<v Speaker 2>thinking about it and reaching out because when the summerstorm

1086
01:02:54.960 --> 01:02:58.000
<v Speaker 2>season comes, that's when we definitely need to be ready

1087
01:02:58.039 --> 01:03:00.800
<v Speaker 2>to go. Quality home can help you do that. We're

1088
01:03:00.800 --> 01:03:03.920
<v Speaker 2>going to head out now and talk to Katie. Hello Katie,

1089
01:03:03.920 --> 01:03:05.000
<v Speaker 2>Welcome to garden Line.

1090
01:03:06.159 --> 01:03:07.000
<v Speaker 22>Hello rich.

1091
01:03:09.360 --> 01:03:10.079
<v Speaker 2>How can we help them?

1092
01:03:11.239 --> 01:03:15.480
<v Speaker 22>I am in the middle of redesigning a kind of

1093
01:03:15.639 --> 01:03:20.519
<v Speaker 22>twenty five year old yard that needs help. And I

1094
01:03:20.599 --> 01:03:25.920
<v Speaker 22>have some camelias that I have some large leslie and

1095
01:03:25.920 --> 01:03:30.199
<v Speaker 22>and sparkling burning the camelias that I want to relocate

1096
01:03:30.480 --> 01:03:32.880
<v Speaker 22>because I don't want to lose them, but they're going

1097
01:03:32.920 --> 01:03:34.960
<v Speaker 22>exactly where my deck is going to go. So my

1098
01:03:35.039 --> 01:03:38.480
<v Speaker 22>question is what time of year do I do them. Obviously,

1099
01:03:38.519 --> 01:03:43.239
<v Speaker 22>my famelia's flower from October to March, so they're dormant

1100
01:03:43.280 --> 01:03:45.840
<v Speaker 22>now from that respective, so I need to know best

1101
01:03:45.840 --> 01:03:50.400
<v Speaker 22>way to transplant those. And then I'm actually going to

1102
01:03:50.760 --> 01:03:55.880
<v Speaker 22>move some jasmine, So do I wait until after they've

1103
01:03:56.679 --> 01:04:00.679
<v Speaker 22>flowered and then trim and transplant those or what? And

1104
01:04:00.719 --> 01:04:03.679
<v Speaker 22>then my last thing is I have I know you

1105
01:04:03.800 --> 01:04:06.280
<v Speaker 22>just got to talking about citrus trees. I have two

1106
01:04:07.199 --> 01:04:12.079
<v Speaker 22>or three peach trees that are still in nursery buckets

1107
01:04:12.079 --> 01:04:15.199
<v Speaker 22>that I want to put in the ground, So I

1108
01:04:15.280 --> 01:04:16.280
<v Speaker 22>need to know how to do that.

1109
01:04:18.239 --> 01:04:21.559
<v Speaker 2>Okay, Well, it's not the worst time to move a plant,

1110
01:04:21.559 --> 01:04:25.400
<v Speaker 2>but it's not a good time because summer's coming. If

1111
01:04:25.480 --> 01:04:29.159
<v Speaker 2>you if you know construction's coming, and you either move

1112
01:04:29.199 --> 01:04:32.719
<v Speaker 2>them or lose them, move them. Get as much soil

1113
01:04:32.840 --> 01:04:35.480
<v Speaker 2>with with as you can. You don't have to go

1114
01:04:35.719 --> 01:04:38.599
<v Speaker 2>like two feet deep, but if you can, the more

1115
01:04:38.639 --> 01:04:41.360
<v Speaker 2>with you get, and then cut underneath the plant with

1116
01:04:41.440 --> 01:04:45.280
<v Speaker 2>a sharp shovel edge to kind of create a I

1117
01:04:45.320 --> 01:04:48.079
<v Speaker 2>don't want to say a pancakes not a great example,

1118
01:04:48.159 --> 01:04:50.880
<v Speaker 2>but well, instead of a thumb ball, think of a pancake,

1119
01:04:50.960 --> 01:04:54.559
<v Speaker 2>something wider but not as deep. You know, maybe you

1120
01:04:54.559 --> 01:04:57.239
<v Speaker 2>can go down about eight inches or something like that

1121
01:04:57.360 --> 01:05:01.039
<v Speaker 2>and get what you can there, but get the roots

1122
01:05:01.079 --> 01:05:03.480
<v Speaker 2>you can. I like to slide the plant onto a

1123
01:05:03.559 --> 01:05:06.519
<v Speaker 2>tarp so it's easy to drag across the yard without

1124
01:05:06.599 --> 01:05:11.159
<v Speaker 2>hurting your back. Because soil is cready right into the hole.

1125
01:05:11.199 --> 01:05:13.519
<v Speaker 2>I would already have dug the hole before I dig

1126
01:05:13.599 --> 01:05:15.679
<v Speaker 2>up the plant. Move it right over there, put it

1127
01:05:15.800 --> 01:05:17.559
<v Speaker 2>right in the ground and water it in, and then

1128
01:05:17.599 --> 01:05:19.679
<v Speaker 2>get you some shade cloth and put it over the plant.

1129
01:05:20.320 --> 01:05:24.000
<v Speaker 2>To cut that sun down to at least fifty percent

1130
01:05:24.239 --> 01:05:27.760
<v Speaker 2>of what it was, and the only roots on that

1131
01:05:27.800 --> 01:05:29.960
<v Speaker 2>plant are that little bit you dug up, and none

1132
01:05:30.000 --> 01:05:32.480
<v Speaker 2>of those are taking up water until they produce little

1133
01:05:32.519 --> 01:05:35.000
<v Speaker 2>side roots that can take up the water and nutrients.

1134
01:05:35.599 --> 01:05:38.119
<v Speaker 2>So you want to keep them moist, and it's gonna

1135
01:05:38.119 --> 01:05:40.559
<v Speaker 2>be touching. Go this first summer. If you can wait,

1136
01:05:41.360 --> 01:05:43.320
<v Speaker 2>it would be much better to do it in late

1137
01:05:43.320 --> 01:05:44.840
<v Speaker 2>October or November.

1138
01:05:45.199 --> 01:05:49.639
<v Speaker 22>That's a much blooming even though that's when they're blooming.

1139
01:05:49.639 --> 01:05:51.559
<v Speaker 22>So I won't I won't have a bloom.

1140
01:05:51.840 --> 01:05:55.199
<v Speaker 2>Ye, well yeah it will. Yeah, it'll affect that. But

1141
01:05:55.440 --> 01:05:59.480
<v Speaker 2>you know, if if you kill the plant with the

1142
01:05:59.480 --> 01:06:03.360
<v Speaker 2>first summer heat, have bloods either, you know what I'm saying.

1143
01:06:03.800 --> 01:06:07.559
<v Speaker 2>So I'm worried about keeping a very valuable plan alive here.

1144
01:06:08.239 --> 01:06:10.800
<v Speaker 2>But yeah, that would be it. On all the plants

1145
01:06:10.800 --> 01:06:13.559
<v Speaker 2>you're gonna move, it's the best time, and just get

1146
01:06:13.599 --> 01:06:15.840
<v Speaker 2>the roots, move them quick, get them in the ground,

1147
01:06:16.079 --> 01:06:19.440
<v Speaker 2>and then protect them because the a camulle you can take,

1148
01:06:19.840 --> 01:06:22.119
<v Speaker 2>you know, some drought, it can take some syllables son

1149
01:06:22.599 --> 01:06:25.519
<v Speaker 2>and does okay, But when you've got all the roots off,

1150
01:06:25.639 --> 01:06:27.760
<v Speaker 2>that's a whole different thing. So we got to we've

1151
01:06:27.800 --> 01:06:30.480
<v Speaker 2>got to prevent the loss of water as best we

1152
01:06:30.519 --> 01:06:32.920
<v Speaker 2>can with that shading and you're gonna need to live

1153
01:06:33.239 --> 01:06:34.039
<v Speaker 2>there for a little while.

1154
01:06:35.119 --> 01:06:38.400
<v Speaker 22>Do I need to print it? You know, prune it

1155
01:06:38.480 --> 01:06:42.239
<v Speaker 22>back some because it's kind of large.

1156
01:06:42.440 --> 01:06:46.760
<v Speaker 2>You could do that. I would, Yeah, well you could

1157
01:06:46.760 --> 01:06:48.719
<v Speaker 2>prune it back. Some people will cut them back as

1158
01:06:48.719 --> 01:06:49.760
<v Speaker 2>far as fifty percent.

1159
01:06:50.159 --> 01:06:50.280
<v Speaker 11>Uh.

1160
01:06:50.719 --> 01:06:53.840
<v Speaker 2>And before they make the move on a big plant

1161
01:06:53.920 --> 01:06:56.440
<v Speaker 2>like that, you're probably gonna be left with just sticks.

1162
01:06:57.039 --> 01:06:58.559
<v Speaker 2>You know, you're gonna have cut off most of the

1163
01:06:58.679 --> 01:07:01.239
<v Speaker 2>leaves when you cut a good portion of the top,

1164
01:07:01.239 --> 01:07:04.360
<v Speaker 2>because they tend to be on the periphery. But you

1165
01:07:04.360 --> 01:07:06.679
<v Speaker 2>can do that. That cutting it back is not a

1166
01:07:06.679 --> 01:07:09.960
<v Speaker 2>bad idea. Uh. And again there's no guarantees on this,

1167
01:07:10.079 --> 01:07:13.480
<v Speaker 2>because I know there's a lot of factors involved in

1168
01:07:13.519 --> 01:07:15.920
<v Speaker 2>that plant surviving. But the main thing is if you

1169
01:07:16.000 --> 01:07:19.400
<v Speaker 2>decide to do it before next fall, do it tomorrow

1170
01:07:19.679 --> 01:07:20.199
<v Speaker 2>or today?

1171
01:07:21.000 --> 01:07:21.880
<v Speaker 22>Right, Well, we.

1172
01:07:21.920 --> 01:07:22.639
<v Speaker 6>Might do it today.

1173
01:07:22.679 --> 01:07:24.920
<v Speaker 22>That's why I was calling. And then the one last

1174
01:07:24.920 --> 01:07:27.679
<v Speaker 22>thing that I forgused to ask was I have a

1175
01:07:27.679 --> 01:07:30.280
<v Speaker 22>bed of drift roses that I absolutely love that get

1176
01:07:30.320 --> 01:07:34.159
<v Speaker 22>immense sun. But normally I cut them way back on

1177
01:07:34.280 --> 01:07:37.000
<v Speaker 22>Valentine's Day and I haven't done it yet. Did I

1178
01:07:37.079 --> 01:07:41.519
<v Speaker 22>still cut it back as severe as I normally do now.

1179
01:07:42.199 --> 01:07:44.599
<v Speaker 2>It really needs if it really need, Yeah, if it

1180
01:07:44.599 --> 01:07:46.960
<v Speaker 2>really he's cutting back, cut it back now. If not.

1181
01:07:47.519 --> 01:07:50.199
<v Speaker 2>You know, april's the big rose blooming month and then

1182
01:07:50.239 --> 01:07:52.639
<v Speaker 2>it trails off a little bit, and then October is

1183
01:07:52.679 --> 01:07:55.719
<v Speaker 2>a great month again. I might wait until and enjoy

1184
01:07:55.760 --> 01:07:59.280
<v Speaker 2>the blooms until they tend to kind of reduce and numbers,

1185
01:07:59.440 --> 01:08:02.679
<v Speaker 2>and then the cutback then and get fresh new growth.

1186
01:08:02.760 --> 01:08:04.559
<v Speaker 2>So if you want to put that cutting back off,

1187
01:08:04.639 --> 01:08:07.639
<v Speaker 2>you can do that. Okay, there's not a block on

1188
01:08:07.679 --> 01:08:10.519
<v Speaker 2>that one. Okay, Well, thank you for the call.

1189
01:08:11.960 --> 01:08:12.199
<v Speaker 23>Dress.

1190
01:08:12.360 --> 01:08:15.119
<v Speaker 22>You know flower all year long. Really down here, we

1191
01:08:15.280 --> 01:08:19.000
<v Speaker 22>always flowers. So that's why I wasn't sure I missed

1192
01:08:19.039 --> 01:08:20.039
<v Speaker 22>the opportunity or not.

1193
01:08:21.680 --> 01:08:25.159
<v Speaker 2>Well, they're repeat bloomers, but it's a good tough rose

1194
01:08:25.319 --> 01:08:27.399
<v Speaker 2>and so like I said, it's not black and white.

1195
01:08:27.399 --> 01:08:29.239
<v Speaker 2>You can cut them back now if you want, or

1196
01:08:29.279 --> 01:08:32.119
<v Speaker 2>you can cut them back if you're already enjoying some

1197
01:08:32.279 --> 01:08:34.279
<v Speaker 2>early bloom you want to wait on it, you can

1198
01:08:34.319 --> 01:08:37.960
<v Speaker 2>cut them back a little bit later. Okay, Thank you, Katie,

1199
01:08:38.000 --> 01:08:45.680
<v Speaker 2>appreciate take care. Nelson Plant Food has products for your

1200
01:08:45.760 --> 01:08:48.239
<v Speaker 2>lawn and flower beds and other things. I want to

1201
01:08:48.279 --> 01:08:50.960
<v Speaker 2>talk about their bruce Is Brew. Bruce's Brew is a

1202
01:08:51.039 --> 01:08:53.960
<v Speaker 2>unique product. We think of it as an immediate release

1203
01:08:54.039 --> 01:08:58.199
<v Speaker 2>because it's not the slow and easy that Nelson has.

1204
01:08:58.239 --> 01:09:01.199
<v Speaker 2>It goes on through the summer, but it does have

1205
01:09:01.239 --> 01:09:04.720
<v Speaker 2>an extended release portion to it. So with Bruce's Brew

1206
01:09:04.760 --> 01:09:06.960
<v Speaker 2>you get a quick green up, but you also get

1207
01:09:06.960 --> 01:09:10.399
<v Speaker 2>a release of carbon based nitrogen sources that feed those

1208
01:09:10.399 --> 01:09:14.399
<v Speaker 2>soil microbes that keep the soil in its best shape.

1209
01:09:14.600 --> 01:09:18.680
<v Speaker 2>For your turf to be in its best shape. A good, strong,

1210

01:09:22.000 --> 01:09:25.279

<v Speaker 2>Guarden line with skip. You have will have seen a

1229
01:10:27.640 --> 01:10:31.880
<v Speaker 2>video that I did where Pest Brothers comes and sets

1230
01:10:32.039 --> 01:10:35.079
<v Speaker 2>up one of their mosquito buckets. A lot of people

1231
01:10:35.079 --> 01:10:38.199
<v Speaker 2>are seeing it's really taken off, but it's it's it

1232
01:10:38.359 --> 01:10:40.640
<v Speaker 2>explains the system, and I'm not going to try to

1235
01:10:47.239 --> 01:10:50.000
<v Speaker 2>in it, and it's a whole new way of controlling

1236
01:10:50.039 --> 01:10:52.239
<v Speaker 2>mosquitos instead of going around with a foger and nuke

1237
01:10:52.279 --> 01:10:55.119
<v Speaker 2>in the place every other day. Really cool. Now Pest

1238
01:10:55.119 --> 01:10:57.479
<v Speaker 2>Brothers has all kinds of pest control. They don't just

1239

1240

<v Speaker 2>and termites and everything else. Roaches in the house. Uh,

1250
01:11:35.199 --> 01:11:37.439
<v Speaker 2>Glad to have you with us this morning. We are

1251
01:11:37.479 --> 01:11:40.359
<v Speaker 2>gonna jump straight to the phones this segment and go

1252
01:11:40.399 --> 01:11:44.159
<v Speaker 2>to Richard in Dayton. Hello Richard, Welcome to garden Line.

1253
01:11:45.439 --> 01:11:46.000
<v Speaker 10>Good morning.

1254
01:11:46.039 --> 01:11:48.960
<v Speaker 7>Hey, my wife wants to plant some kind of fruit tree,

1255
01:11:49.119 --> 01:11:52.960
<v Speaker 7>like a tangerine or small aungus something like that.

1256
01:11:53.680 --> 01:11:55.600
<v Speaker 23>Is that something that can be dude done to.

1257
01:11:55.680 --> 01:11:57.760
<v Speaker 12>I have to bomb and pairs and all that kind

1258
01:11:57.800 --> 01:11:58.279
<v Speaker 12>of stuff.

1259
01:11:58.319 --> 01:12:00.359
<v Speaker 5>I'm trying to find out.

1260
01:12:00.960 --> 01:12:03.199
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, a citrus. You don't have to worry about that

1261
01:12:03.319 --> 01:12:06.880
<v Speaker 2>pollination thing that you do with something like an apple,

1262
01:12:06.920 --> 01:12:10.720
<v Speaker 2>for example. No, you just buy one one tree will

1263
01:12:10.720 --> 01:12:13.279
<v Speaker 2>be fine. You want to kind of do a little

1264
01:12:13.319 --> 01:12:17.640
<v Speaker 2>thinking and shopping as you before you go out. If

1265
01:12:17.680 --> 01:12:20.840
<v Speaker 2>you go to a good quality garden center. They're going

1266
01:12:20.880 --> 01:12:22.640
<v Speaker 2>to be able to point you to the ones that

1267
01:12:22.720 --> 01:12:25.520
<v Speaker 2>have the best chance of doing well in your area.

1268
01:12:27.079 --> 01:12:30.399
<v Speaker 2>Citrus challenge here is we do get cold, and when

1269
01:12:30.439 --> 01:12:33.479
<v Speaker 2>we get cold then they often can frost and freeze.

1270
01:12:33.600 --> 01:12:38.560
<v Speaker 2>You're out there kind of northwest of Houston, so I

1271
01:12:38.560 --> 01:12:41.079
<v Speaker 2>would say you're probably your best bet in terms of

1272
01:12:41.159 --> 01:12:45.359
<v Speaker 2>hardiness and citrus. Orange like flavoring is going to be

1273
01:12:45.359 --> 01:12:48.199
<v Speaker 2>a satsuma, which is a mandarin type orange. It has

1274
01:12:48.239 --> 01:12:51.760
<v Speaker 2>real baggy skin that peels away, real easy. Satsumas are

1275
01:12:51.800 --> 01:12:54.720
<v Speaker 2>one of the heartier citrus that we have. If you

1276
01:12:54.760 --> 01:12:57.640
<v Speaker 2>want to grow something that's not as hardy, like a

1277
01:12:57.680 --> 01:13:00.359
<v Speaker 2>lime or a lemon, you can do that in a

1278
01:13:00.359 --> 01:13:03.680
<v Speaker 2>big container that can be rolled into a protected spot

1279
01:13:04.279 --> 01:13:12.720
<v Speaker 2>over a frosty night such as and then yeah, it

1280
01:13:12.800 --> 01:13:15.560
<v Speaker 2>is a good one. I'm planting one myself this year,

1281
01:13:15.720 --> 01:13:18.439
<v Speaker 2>and there's a lot of good varieties out there. You

1282
01:13:18.520 --> 01:13:23.479
<v Speaker 2>are not too terribly far away from Kingwood Garden Center

1283
01:13:23.880 --> 01:13:26.319
<v Speaker 2>and Warren Southern Gardens over there in Kingwood, and I

1284
01:13:26.359 --> 01:13:29.800
<v Speaker 2>know they carry them over there, so you might just

1285
01:13:29.840 --> 01:13:32.039
<v Speaker 2>call them make sure they haven't been cleared out, cleaned

1286
01:13:32.039 --> 01:13:40.359
<v Speaker 2>out or something like that. But good, good, Yeah, Well

1287
01:13:40.439 --> 01:13:42.239
<v Speaker 2>you want them on a raised mound so they don't

1288
01:13:42.319 --> 01:13:44.880
<v Speaker 2>sit in soggy, wet conditions when we have those long

1289
01:13:45.000 --> 01:13:45.720
<v Speaker 2>rainy spells.

1290
01:13:46.319 --> 01:13:46.479
<v Speaker 10>Uh.

1291
01:13:47.119 --> 01:13:49.640
<v Speaker 2>Mix a little compost into a very large area and

1292
01:13:49.760 --> 01:13:51.439
<v Speaker 2>not just a planting hole, but you know, it may

1293
01:13:51.479 --> 01:13:53.880
<v Speaker 2>be four or five feet wide. You know, mix it

1294
01:13:53.960 --> 01:13:56.920
<v Speaker 2>into the soil and then dig the hole for the plant.

1295
01:13:57.439 --> 01:14:02.479
<v Speaker 2>Dig the hole only as deep as the container cylinder

1296
01:14:02.560 --> 01:14:04.600
<v Speaker 2>that you pull out, so you know, like if it's

1297
01:14:05.079 --> 01:14:07.800
<v Speaker 2>let's say it's a foot when you pull the root

1298
01:14:07.960 --> 01:14:11.239
<v Speaker 2>cylinder out of the container, it's a foot tall. Then

1299
01:14:11.279 --> 01:14:13.720
<v Speaker 2>dig the whole of foot deep so that it stays

1300
01:14:13.760 --> 01:14:15.880
<v Speaker 2>at the right level. Don't plant it too deep, plant

1301
01:14:15.880 --> 01:14:18.880
<v Speaker 2>it at the same level I would. There's a lot

1302
01:14:18.920 --> 01:14:20.880
<v Speaker 2>of products you can use. You know, you can mix

1303
01:14:20.920 --> 01:14:27.079
<v Speaker 2>some something like Nelson's Genesis, Nelson plant food genesis. It's

1304
01:14:27.159 --> 01:14:29.640
<v Speaker 2>not like a salt base is just going to burn

1305
01:14:30.000 --> 01:14:33.560
<v Speaker 2>the roots that I don't generally put fertilizer in the whole,

1306
01:14:33.560 --> 01:14:35.760
<v Speaker 2>but you can mix some Nelson Genesis in that soil

1307
01:14:36.359 --> 01:14:38.960
<v Speaker 2>and then plant, or you can just begin fertilizing with

1308
01:14:39.279 --> 01:14:43.199
<v Speaker 2>a product for fruit trees or even even a lawn

1309
01:14:43.239 --> 01:14:47.359
<v Speaker 2>fertilizer is okay to help get that citrus growing, wait

1310
01:14:47.359 --> 01:14:52.720
<v Speaker 2>about six weeks after you plant to begin fertilizing it.

1311
01:14:52.800 --> 01:14:57.279
<v Speaker 12>Okay, okay, all right, yes, thank you so much.

1312
01:14:57.359 --> 01:14:57.840
<v Speaker 5>And then.

1313
01:14:59.600 --> 01:15:01.640
<v Speaker 2>You bet. And you know, my advice is free, and

1314
01:15:01.680 --> 01:15:03.119
<v Speaker 2>I know I'm going to have to wait about three

1315
01:15:03.199 --> 01:15:05.640
<v Speaker 2>years for you to pay off. But I do need

1316
01:15:05.680 --> 01:15:08.039
<v Speaker 2>you to bring half your satsumas to the station so

1317
01:15:08.079 --> 01:15:13.039
<v Speaker 2>I can enjoy it. We stay out of trouble. Thanks

1318
01:15:13.079 --> 01:15:16.880
<v Speaker 2>for the call. Appreciate that said. I mentioned Warren Southern

1319
01:15:16.880 --> 01:15:19.079
<v Speaker 2>Garden and kingw With Garden Center. Warrens is on North

1320
01:15:19.119 --> 01:15:22.079
<v Speaker 2>Park in Kingwood, Kingwo Garden Centers on Stone Hollow. Both

1321
01:15:22.079 --> 01:15:24.279
<v Speaker 2>of them are open seven days a week, so yesterday

1323
01:15:27.880 --> 01:15:30.279
<v Speaker 2>products that like I was talking about, you know, just

1324
01:15:30.600 --> 01:15:34.359
<v Speaker 2>sitting there visiting with Richard. I mentioned the Nelson products.

1325
01:15:34.640 --> 01:15:38.880
<v Speaker 2>Then the jars. They even have filling stations for the jug.

1326
01:15:38.960 --> 01:15:40.960
<v Speaker 2>So when you empty a jug, bring it back in

1327
01:15:41.159 --> 01:15:43.119
<v Speaker 2>and you get a better deal on the fertilizer by

1328
01:15:43.159 --> 01:15:46.319
<v Speaker 2>using the filling station not buying another plastic jar. Plus

1329
01:15:46.399 --> 01:15:51.439
<v Speaker 2>you don't waste plastic into the environment. They have beautiful,

1330
01:15:51.760 --> 01:15:57.640

1336
01:16:12.279 --> 01:16:17.199
<v Speaker 24>Hello, George, Yes, good morning. Do you excuse me? Last year,

1337
01:16:17.239 --> 01:16:18.840
<v Speaker 24>I have a myra lemon tree and he had a

1338
01:16:18.840 --> 01:16:21.000
<v Speaker 24>lot of one year old last year and they had

1339
01:16:21.000 --> 01:16:23.399
<v Speaker 24>a lot of blossoms and he said, pull those bossoms

1340
01:16:23.439 --> 01:16:26.600
<v Speaker 24>off and let the energy go into grow in the tree. Well,

1341
01:16:26.800 --> 01:16:28.640
<v Speaker 24>this is two years old, man wand he still got

1342
01:16:28.960 --> 01:16:30.680
<v Speaker 24>a lot of bostom So I pulled them off. Let

1343
01:16:30.720 --> 01:16:33.199
<v Speaker 24>them Can I pick them unless them grow and have

1344
01:16:33.239 --> 01:16:33.760
<v Speaker 24>some moments.

1345
01:16:35.479 --> 01:16:39.039
<v Speaker 2>Oh, George, George, I hate this question because let me

1346
01:16:39.359 --> 01:16:41.479
<v Speaker 2>here's how I'm gonna answer it. And here's why. I

1347
01:16:41.560 --> 01:16:44.119
<v Speaker 2>know that you're sitting there looking at blooms and I'm

1348
01:16:44.119 --> 01:16:47.840
<v Speaker 2>about to tell you to pull all your blood off again.

1349
01:16:48.600 --> 01:16:52.439
<v Speaker 2>You to shoot your go out and shoot your favorite dog. George, No,

1350
01:16:55.000 --> 01:16:56.800
<v Speaker 2>and I'm not going to do that. I'm gonna give

1351
01:16:56.800 --> 01:16:59.720
<v Speaker 2>you I'm gonna hedge the bed a little bit. If

1352
01:16:59.760 --> 01:17:02.119
<v Speaker 2>for the first two years you just remove all the blooms.

1353
01:17:02.239 --> 01:17:04.279
<v Speaker 2>You grow the biggest tree you can to hang a

1354
01:17:04.319 --> 01:17:06.479
<v Speaker 2>whole lot of fruit on. And that's why we pull

1355
01:17:06.520 --> 01:17:09.239
<v Speaker 2>the blooms off early, because in the long term you're

1356
01:17:09.239 --> 01:17:11.880
<v Speaker 2>gonna get good deals. I understand what it's like to

1357
01:17:11.960 --> 01:17:15.359
<v Speaker 2>have a beautiful tree, so I would I would leave

1358
01:17:15.359 --> 01:17:17.600
<v Speaker 2>yourself a few. Just leave a few so you can

1359
01:17:17.720 --> 01:17:20.880
<v Speaker 2>enjoy the Just remember that the more you leave, the

1360
01:17:20.880 --> 01:17:23.479
<v Speaker 2>more you leave, the more it's gonna cost you next

1361
01:17:23.600 --> 01:17:27.199
<v Speaker 2>year's production. That that's end the year after that too,

1362
01:17:27.720 --> 01:17:30.920
<v Speaker 2>So so find yourself a happy medium there and enjoy

1363
01:17:31.000 --> 01:17:37.439
<v Speaker 2>the fragrance of those wonderful blooms.

1364
01:17:33.399 --> 01:17:35.840
<v Speaker 5>Are very unbelievable.

1365
01:17:35.920 --> 01:17:36.600
<v Speaker 9>Okay, thank you?

1366
01:17:36.840 --> 01:17:39.960
<v Speaker 2>Huh, all right, you take care of jars?

1367
01:17:41.199 --> 01:17:41.359
<v Speaker 6>Yeah?

1368
01:17:41.439 --> 01:17:45.000
<v Speaker 2>That oh, that question I think kills me. It does,

1369
01:17:45.119 --> 01:17:49.359
<v Speaker 2>because I know, I mean, I listen. Sometimes I don't

1370
01:17:49.439 --> 01:17:53.159
<v Speaker 2>take my own advice, you know. And my daughter just

1371
01:17:53.199 --> 01:17:56.479
<v Speaker 2>planted last year. Let's see a lime tree and a

1372
01:17:56.520 --> 01:17:59.840
<v Speaker 2>satsumme tree, and that lime was blooming this year, and

1373
01:18:00.199 --> 01:18:03.920
<v Speaker 2>like what you know, I just okay, leave yourself a

1374
01:18:03.960 --> 01:18:07.199
<v Speaker 2>few limes to enjoy them, you know, in case you

1375
01:18:07.319 --> 01:18:10.079
<v Speaker 2>need to make a margarita and the grocery stores closed,

1376
01:18:10.199 --> 01:18:14.840
<v Speaker 2>leave yourself a few limes on there before, seriously, because

1377
01:18:14.840 --> 01:18:17.079
<v Speaker 2>you get to yet to enjoy them. And the fragrance

1378
01:18:17.159 --> 01:18:22.920
<v Speaker 2>is wonderful too. So yeah, I don't know, I do.

1379
01:18:23.039 --> 01:18:24.520
<v Speaker 2>I do hate that. I hate to be the bearer

1380
01:18:24.560 --> 01:18:26.119
<v Speaker 2>of bad news. You know, they shoot the bearer of

1381
01:18:26.159 --> 01:18:28.239
<v Speaker 2>bad news in the old days. That's what they That's

<v Speaker 2>is the place you go for the brown stuff. It's

1392
01:19:02.000 --> 01:19:04.000

01:19:07.720 --> 01:19:10.000
<v Speaker 2>I mean, you've got the brown stuff, you've got the foundation.

1395
01:19:10.920 --> 01:19:14.119
<v Speaker 2>But today when you come see me, bring a pickup

1396
01:19:14.239 --> 01:19:17.560
<v Speaker 2>or a trailer or both take home some of the

1397
01:19:17.560 --> 01:19:19.239
<v Speaker 2>good stuff they have both. They have stuff of the

1398
01:19:19.239 --> 01:19:22.359
<v Speaker 2>bag and fertilizers and all kinds of things. You know,

1399
01:19:22.479 --> 01:19:25.239
<v Speaker 2>it's it's the place to go. It's easy to get to,

1400
01:19:25.479 --> 01:19:27.039
<v Speaker 2>no problem at all. You can go to the website

1401
01:19:27.119 --> 01:19:29.960
<v Speaker 2>cienamalts dot com. It's easy to find that. But while

1402
01:19:30.000 --> 01:19:32.159
<v Speaker 2>you're out there, you can pick up some Medina.

1403
01:19:32.239 --> 01:19:32.399
<v Speaker 11>You know.

1404
01:19:32.439 --> 01:19:34.880
<v Speaker 2>I keep telling folks that has to grow six twelve

1405
01:19:34.960 --> 01:19:38.479
<v Speaker 2>six plant food. You drench it down on plants when

1406
01:19:38.520 --> 01:19:39.920
<v Speaker 2>you're planning them. I did it the other day. I

1407
01:19:39.960 --> 01:19:43.439
<v Speaker 2>put a salvy out just recently, and I drenched the

1408
01:19:43.720 --> 01:19:46.680
<v Speaker 2>I put the plant in the ground, drenched it really good,

1409
01:19:46.920 --> 01:19:49.680
<v Speaker 2>covered it up with soil. A week ten days later,

1410
01:19:49.760 --> 01:19:52.039
<v Speaker 2>drench it again, a week ten days later, drench it again.

1411
01:19:52.239 --> 01:19:55.359
<v Speaker 2>And that phosphorus and the nutrients helps that plant jump

1412
01:19:55.399 --> 01:19:57.319
<v Speaker 2>out of the ground and take off running. And it's

1413
01:19:57.319 --> 01:20:00.119
<v Speaker 2>by Medina, and Medina has a lot of products. I'm

1414
01:20:00.119 --> 01:20:02.640
<v Speaker 2>going to be given away some Medina products today. In fact,

1415
01:20:02.760 --> 01:20:05.000
<v Speaker 2>I'm going to give them away one of their hose

1416
01:20:05.239 --> 01:20:09.000
<v Speaker 2>end lawn fertilizers that you just took up the garden

1417
01:20:09.039 --> 01:20:11.720
<v Speaker 2>hose and you just spread out there and it's it's

1418
01:20:11.840 --> 01:20:14.760
<v Speaker 2>got good nitrogen in it has zero phosphorus, which don't

1419
01:20:14.800 --> 01:20:18.640
<v Speaker 2>worry about that. Actually a lot of lawns needs zero phosphorus.

1420
01:20:18.880 --> 01:20:22.479
<v Speaker 2>But it'll give you a really good boost. And come

01:23:01.640 --> 01:23:04.520
<v Speaker 2>Deer Park, there's Deer Park Lumber in Ace Hardware. If

1472
01:23:04.560 --> 01:23:07.640
<v Speaker 2>you're out an Orange Child's Buildings Supply. Just somebody call

1473
01:23:07.640 --> 01:23:11.479
<v Speaker 2>a while ago from out far east and we talked

1474
01:23:11.479 --> 01:23:13.920
<v Speaker 2>to him about going to the ACE Hardware. Down in

1475
01:23:13.960 --> 01:23:18.880
<v Speaker 2>League City, there's Kilgore, clear Lake Hardware, Lumber excuse me

1476
01:23:18.960 --> 01:23:22.239
<v Speaker 2>clear that Lumber, and Hamilton Hardware is on Highway six.

1477
01:23:22.399 --> 01:23:25.039
<v Speaker 2>North here in the Houston area. There's just a few

1478
01:23:25.399 --> 01:23:27.840
<v Speaker 2>of the many Ace hardware restorers that we have. Let's

1479
01:23:27.840 --> 01:23:29.319
<v Speaker 2>turn out to the phones now, we're going to go

1480
01:23:29.359 --> 01:23:32.680
<v Speaker 2>to Conroe and talk to David. Hello, David, welcome to

1481
01:23:32.760 --> 01:23:33.279
<v Speaker 2>garden Line.

1482
01:23:34.880 --> 01:23:38.760
<v Speaker 14>Yes, good morning and first time caller, and.

1483
01:23:40.800 --> 01:23:42.479
<v Speaker 5>Have enjoyed listening.

1484
01:23:42.079 --> 01:23:46.720
<v Speaker 14>To you and Randy Lemon in the past. But I

1485
01:23:46.760 --> 01:23:51.640
<v Speaker 14>have a question concerning zeistier grass. And we put it

1486
01:23:51.680 --> 01:23:54.760
<v Speaker 14>in last year at our rent.

1487
01:23:54.520 --> 01:23:55.479
<v Speaker 25>House, and.

1488
01:23:57.479 --> 01:24:00.640
<v Speaker 14>Our tenant is responsible for taking care of it. But

1489
01:24:00.720 --> 01:24:04.119
<v Speaker 14>I noticed when I went over there the U it

1490
01:24:04.159 --> 01:24:08.439
<v Speaker 14>looked almost like a shag carpet, and you know, it

1491
01:24:08.520 --> 01:24:12.920
<v Speaker 14>was brown and laying over, and so just wandered some

1492
01:24:12.960 --> 01:24:17.880
<v Speaker 14>recommendations from you on proper care or and I'll check

1493
01:24:17.920 --> 01:24:22.880
<v Speaker 14>your fertilization. I looked at your fertilization schedule, but I

1494
01:24:22.960 --> 01:24:24.560
<v Speaker 14>just wanted to know if there was something else we

1495
01:24:24.600 --> 01:24:27.079
<v Speaker 14>could do to green it up or because it just

1496
01:24:27.079 --> 01:24:30.560
<v Speaker 14>looks like a mess. It looks like a shag carpet

1497
01:24:30.600 --> 01:24:33.680
<v Speaker 14>that's brown and a little green, but it doesn't look

1498
01:24:33.880 --> 01:24:34.600
<v Speaker 14>feeling at all.

1499
01:24:34.760 --> 01:24:37.800
<v Speaker 2>Not a problem, all right, So it's a zoysia. Do

1500
01:24:37.840 --> 01:24:39.920
<v Speaker 2>you happen to know what kind of zoysia.

1501
01:24:41.960 --> 01:24:43.119
<v Speaker 20>No, sir, I can't remember.

1502
01:24:44.760 --> 01:24:47.560
<v Speaker 2>All right, Well, that's fine, Zoysia is you're gonna want

1503
01:24:47.560 --> 01:24:50.960
<v Speaker 2>to mow those kind of close. You can mowzoisia as

1504
01:24:51.039 --> 01:24:53.479
<v Speaker 2>close as an inch high. You can mow it up

1505
01:24:53.520 --> 01:24:56.880
<v Speaker 2>to a couple of inches high. But as you mow low,

1506
01:24:57.760 --> 01:25:00.880
<v Speaker 2>it makes that tighter. It's not going to look like

1507
01:25:00.920 --> 01:25:03.640
<v Speaker 2>a golf course green, but it's more like that than

1508
01:25:03.640 --> 01:25:06.600
<v Speaker 2>the shag carpet carpet that's laying over you're talking about.

1509
01:25:07.239 --> 01:25:09.359
<v Speaker 2>I would go in now and make sure your lawnmower

1510
01:25:09.359 --> 01:25:14.520
<v Speaker 2>blade is very sharp, because Louisa is a tougher grass

1511
01:25:14.880 --> 01:25:17.920
<v Speaker 2>in terms of cutting through it, just a little bit tougher.

1512
01:25:18.279 --> 01:25:20.840
<v Speaker 2>So drop it down low. I would go down to

1513
01:25:20.880 --> 01:25:23.199
<v Speaker 2>about an inch and I would cut it off and

1514
01:25:23.239 --> 01:25:25.760
<v Speaker 2>get all that debris out of there. I mean you can,

1515
01:25:26.159 --> 01:25:27.920
<v Speaker 2>if you're cutting off as much as I think you

1516
01:25:28.000 --> 01:25:30.000
<v Speaker 2>will be. I wouldn't leave it on the ground because

1517
01:25:30.039 --> 01:25:32.600
<v Speaker 2>it's just going to be like a hayfield out there

1518
01:25:32.640 --> 01:25:36.359
<v Speaker 2>after you mow over it. But anyway, do that mowing back.

1519
01:25:37.159 --> 01:25:39.479
<v Speaker 2>With the warming weather we're having, it will come back

1520
01:25:39.520 --> 01:25:41.880
<v Speaker 2>out of the ground. Go ahead now, though, and put

1521
01:25:41.960 --> 01:25:46.880
<v Speaker 2>down a fertilizer. Have you fertilized it yet? I missed

1522
01:25:46.880 --> 01:25:47.359
<v Speaker 2>that if you.

1523
01:25:47.319 --> 01:25:50.920
<v Speaker 15>Said it, I have not this season.

1524
01:25:52.680 --> 01:25:54.720
<v Speaker 2>Okay, So what I would do is I would get

1525
01:25:55.359 --> 01:25:57.279
<v Speaker 2>a product that is going to give you a good

1526
01:25:57.279 --> 01:26:01.119
<v Speaker 2>slow release at this point. Over time, you can put

1527
01:26:01.119 --> 01:26:05.039
<v Speaker 2>a fast release out to get immediate release. But we're

1528
01:26:05.079 --> 01:26:07.359
<v Speaker 2>kind of hitting a point now where I probably would

1529
01:26:07.439 --> 01:26:10.439
<v Speaker 2>go on and do like Nitrophile Superturf. It's a nineteen

1530
01:26:10.640 --> 01:26:14.359
<v Speaker 2>four to ten that is a silver bag nitrofile super

1531
01:26:14.439 --> 01:26:18.439
<v Speaker 2>Turf nineteen four to ten. The ground is warm, the

1532
01:26:18.479 --> 01:26:20.560
<v Speaker 2>air is warming up enough to where it's going to

1533
01:26:20.600 --> 01:26:23.439
<v Speaker 2>take off growing. It'll give you about four months of feeding,

1534
01:26:23.800 --> 01:26:26.000
<v Speaker 2>and that's on my schedule. You'll see on the schedule.

1535
01:26:26.039 --> 01:26:28.840
<v Speaker 2>I started in April. But since you haven't done an

1536
01:26:28.840 --> 01:26:31.359
<v Speaker 2>early fertilization, you could just go ahead and do it now.

1537
01:26:31.520 --> 01:26:34.279
<v Speaker 2>That would be fine. And it's available a whole lot

1538
01:26:34.279 --> 01:26:36.359
<v Speaker 2>of different places.

1539
01:26:37.199 --> 01:26:40.039
<v Speaker 14>Very good, Very good, All right, Well, thank you so much,

1540
01:26:40.079 --> 01:26:42.279
<v Speaker 14>and then really enjoy your show.

1573
01:28:21.560 --> 01:28:24.159

1574
01:28:24.199 --> 01:28:28.079
<v Speaker 2>get to through that whole region. Let's see here we

1575
01:28:28.239 --> 01:28:31.800
<v Speaker 2>have got I'm going to go to Doug in Houston. Doug,

1576
01:28:31.840 --> 01:28:33.359
<v Speaker 2>I think we have enough time to do a call.

1577
01:28:33.439 --> 01:28:34.319
<v Speaker 2>Let's give it a shot.

1578
01:28:35.199 --> 01:28:38.039
<v Speaker 23>Okay, Skipball, try to make it quick and emailed you

1579
01:28:38.079 --> 01:28:40.520
<v Speaker 23>about this this week. I have a property and round

1580
01:28:40.520 --> 01:28:45.960
<v Speaker 23>top to few acres a half acre that is irrigated

1581
01:28:46.119 --> 01:28:50.520
<v Speaker 23>Saint Augustine fall of the schedule, and that grass looks good, Yes,

1582
01:28:50.640 --> 01:28:53.119
<v Speaker 23>it might issue it. I've got about an acre and

1583
01:28:53.199 --> 01:28:58.399
<v Speaker 23>a half of mixture of kind of pasture grass and

1584
01:28:58.479 --> 01:29:02.239
<v Speaker 23>weeds and don't have a way of watering it. What's

1585
01:29:02.279 --> 01:29:06.199
<v Speaker 23>the best way for me to treat that land or

1586
01:29:06.239 --> 01:29:08.039
<v Speaker 23>that grass.

1587
01:29:08.680 --> 01:29:10.159
<v Speaker 2>Well if you don't have a way to water it

1588
01:29:10.199 --> 01:29:12.479
<v Speaker 2>when you put your fertilizer out, see when a rain

1589
01:29:12.560 --> 01:29:14.800
<v Speaker 2>is coming, but hopefully not a rain that's going to

1590
01:29:14.840 --> 01:29:17.920
<v Speaker 2>be six inches, you know, but just a regular rain.

1591
01:29:18.279 --> 01:29:20.720
<v Speaker 2>You asked me about azemite and sweet green and other

1592
01:29:20.840 --> 01:29:23.399
<v Speaker 2>nitovoss products. All of that is good. You can do

1593
01:29:23.479 --> 01:29:26.760
<v Speaker 2>all of that for your lawns, and I would, and

1594
01:29:26.800 --> 01:29:29.319
<v Speaker 2>just follow my schedule. It's on there. It tells you

1595
01:29:29.359 --> 01:29:33.039
<v Speaker 2>what to do. Keep the ground as regularly mode as

1596
01:29:33.039 --> 01:29:36.560
<v Speaker 2>you can, because the more often you mow, the better

1597
01:29:36.600 --> 01:29:39.760
<v Speaker 2>your grass looks. And those prairie grasses and things, if

1598
01:29:39.760 --> 01:29:42.960
<v Speaker 2>you want to keep them, then you can mow a

1599
01:29:43.000 --> 01:29:44.920
<v Speaker 2>little bit higher. But you don't have to, you know,

1600
01:29:45.000 --> 01:29:47.800
<v Speaker 2>cattle go graze those things to the ground, as did

1601
01:29:47.800 --> 01:29:51.159
<v Speaker 2>the buffalo before them, and so they're able to recover

1602
01:29:51.600 --> 01:29:55.600
<v Speaker 2>really well. Weed control can be preventative if you want

1603
01:29:55.640 --> 01:29:58.720
<v Speaker 2>to minimize that with the things like barricade. If you

1604
01:29:58.960 --> 01:30:01.680
<v Speaker 2>are having weed right now you want to deal with that,

1605
01:30:01.760 --> 01:30:04.520
<v Speaker 2>are broad leaf you can do a post emergent spray,

1606
01:30:04.520 --> 01:30:06.279
<v Speaker 2>but you need to do it soon before it gets

1607
01:30:06.720 --> 01:30:08.760
<v Speaker 2>any hotter at all. It's better to get all that

1608
01:30:08.880 --> 01:30:10.119
<v Speaker 2>done quickly.

1609
01:30:10.640 --> 01:30:11.279
<v Speaker 23>Very helpful.

1610
01:30:12.760 --> 01:30:16.239
<v Speaker 2>Great, Yeah, that's that's a lot. But uh uh that's

1611
01:30:16.279 --> 01:30:21.039
<v Speaker 2>a beautiful uh beautiful sounding area. I kind of like

1612
01:30:21.079 --> 01:30:21.640
<v Speaker 2>the sound.

1613
01:30:21.600 --> 01:30:23.199
<v Speaker 12>Around yard out there.

1614
01:30:23.199 --> 01:30:26.560
<v Speaker 23>Who can help me too, So it's very very helpful.

1615
01:30:26.720 --> 01:30:29.439
<v Speaker 23>I appreciate it. One other question before you go.

1616
01:30:29.520 --> 01:30:32.279
<v Speaker 2>Thanks for Yeah.

1617
01:30:32.560 --> 01:30:34.680
<v Speaker 23>Here in Houston, I'm certain to see a lot of

1618
01:30:34.720 --> 01:30:36.640
<v Speaker 23>dollar weed in the yard, and the best way to

1619
01:30:36.680 --> 01:30:37.680
<v Speaker 23>treat that would be what.

1620
01:30:39.720 --> 01:30:44.359
<v Speaker 2>Post emergent broad leaf product with a spreader sticker. Addition,

1621
01:30:44.680 --> 01:30:47.520
<v Speaker 2>that's a product called a surfactant or a spreader sticker

1622
01:30:47.560 --> 01:30:50.279
<v Speaker 2>that you put with the broad leaf post emergent weed

1623
01:30:50.319 --> 01:30:54.560
<v Speaker 2>control so it sticks to those slick dollar weed leaves. Uh,

1624
01:30:54.600 --> 01:30:57.279
<v Speaker 2>and do it again a S A P. The hotter

1625
01:30:57.319 --> 01:30:59.920
<v Speaker 2>it gets, the more those products stress. You're Saint August.

1626
01:31:00.239 --> 01:31:02.800
<v Speaker 2>If we can get it done before we're past the

01:31:02.880 --> 01:31:04.680

1658
01:33:01.119 --> 01:33:06.720

1659
01:33:07.119 --> 01:33:10.680
<v Speaker 2>container plants outside, and I hope you are, containers are

1660
01:33:10.720 --> 01:33:15.000
<v Speaker 2>a great way to bring color instantly into a spot.

1661
01:33:15.399 --> 01:33:19.640
<v Speaker 2>I have what I called a hospital for plants. It's

1662
01:33:19.640 --> 01:33:22.640
<v Speaker 2>a place out around the corner. You know, nobody sees

1663
01:33:22.680 --> 01:33:24.760
<v Speaker 2>it back there. When I have a container that's not

1664
01:33:24.840 --> 01:33:27.319
<v Speaker 2>looking bad, or when i'm building on and go back there,

1665
01:33:27.319 --> 01:33:29.239
<v Speaker 2>put all the plants together, get them in, get it

1666
01:33:29.279 --> 01:33:31.680
<v Speaker 2>looking good, and then put it out on display. And

1667
01:33:31.720 --> 01:33:33.359
<v Speaker 2>if something goes a little wrong, take it back there,

1668
01:33:33.399 --> 01:33:34.960
<v Speaker 2>put a plan out, put a new one in, or

1669
01:33:35.000 --> 01:33:38.079
<v Speaker 2>just redo the whole thing. And with containers, it's like that,

1670
01:33:38.159 --> 01:33:41.920
<v Speaker 2>it's instant, it's everywhere. Jungle Land is a product from

1686
01:34:32.039 --> 01:34:34.000
<v Speaker 7>Good morning, and thanks for taking my call.

1687
01:34:34.159 --> 01:34:34.920
<v Speaker 5>All right, So.

1688
01:34:36.640 --> 01:34:43.119
<v Speaker 7>Back in late September early October, I planted about twenty

1689
01:34:44.560 --> 01:34:52.119
<v Speaker 7>olive trees and they're about five feet tall. And this

1690
01:34:52.520 --> 01:34:54.720
<v Speaker 7>past winter we had a couple of pretty good freezes

1691
01:34:54.800 --> 01:34:59.079
<v Speaker 7>out here, and I protected them, you know, certainly best

1692
01:34:59.119 --> 01:35:03.039
<v Speaker 7>I could with frost cloth, then wrapped them in burlap,

1693
01:35:03.399 --> 01:35:06.439
<v Speaker 7>and then I put plastic over the top to keep that,

1694
01:35:06.520 --> 01:35:09.279
<v Speaker 7>you know, when it was raining and sleeping, to keep Anyway,

1695
01:35:09.439 --> 01:35:11.840
<v Speaker 7>we did a good job of protecting them. They all

1696
01:35:11.880 --> 01:35:16.680
<v Speaker 7>have survived. And the lower parts and the middle parts,

1697
01:35:17.039 --> 01:35:19.640
<v Speaker 7>you know, like the top seventy five percent from the

1698
01:35:19.640 --> 01:35:22.920
<v Speaker 7>base all the way up seventy five percent. They're all green.

1699
01:35:22.960 --> 01:35:27.159
<v Speaker 7>They look good, but now the top parts for whatever reason,

1700
01:35:27.239 --> 01:35:31.520
<v Speaker 7>obviously we're more exposed and they have all turned brown.

1701
01:35:32.319 --> 01:35:35.760
<v Speaker 7>And my question is is this the right time? Do

1702
01:35:35.840 --> 01:35:38.800
<v Speaker 7>I go in there with my hand prunes and just

1703
01:35:38.840 --> 01:35:40.840
<v Speaker 7>clip off all the dead brown?

1704
01:35:42.760 --> 01:35:42.960
<v Speaker 5>Yeah?

1705
01:35:43.000 --> 01:35:45.680
<v Speaker 2>What I generally will will tell folks is if you

1706
01:35:45.800 --> 01:35:48.680
<v Speaker 2>will let the plant tell you where to prune, meaning

1707
01:35:48.680 --> 01:35:51.680
<v Speaker 2>when you see you growth coming out, you know it's

1708
01:35:51.720 --> 01:35:53.880
<v Speaker 2>green up to a spot like you're describing, and then

1709
01:35:53.920 --> 01:35:57.399
<v Speaker 2>it's dead above that, then print it right above, you know,

1710
01:35:57.520 --> 01:35:59.600
<v Speaker 2>right into the dead, right there where it dead and

1711
01:35:59.640 --> 01:36:02.800
<v Speaker 2>the green joined together. So when you can visually see that,

1712
01:36:03.479 --> 01:36:06.439
<v Speaker 2>go ahead and do do the pruning at that time.

1713
01:36:06.520 --> 01:36:08.960
<v Speaker 2>And it's a it's a not a big deal.

1714
01:36:09.039 --> 01:36:09.199
<v Speaker 26>You know.

1715
01:36:10.279 --> 01:36:13.920
<v Speaker 2>The olive trees are not super dependably cold hearty here.

1716
01:36:14.359 --> 01:36:18.199
<v Speaker 2>You'll you'll, you'll, they'll be okay overall, but occasionally you

1717
01:36:18.279 --> 01:36:21.079
<v Speaker 2>just get this freeze, it really kills them back a lot.

1718
01:36:21.199 --> 01:36:24.720
<v Speaker 2>And so what what you need to do is just

1719
01:36:24.760 --> 01:36:27.399
<v Speaker 2>be ready and you know able to respond to that.

1720
01:36:27.439 --> 01:36:30.680
<v Speaker 2>When those trees are young though, they're they're even more susceptible.

1721
01:36:31.319 --> 01:36:33.800
<v Speaker 2>So just something to kind of keep in mind.

1722
01:36:34.960 --> 01:36:36.000
<v Speaker 5>Yeah, because I really do.

1723
01:36:36.039 --> 01:36:38.279
<v Speaker 7>The olives are just beautiful I've got them planning in

1724
01:36:38.319 --> 01:36:41.640
<v Speaker 7>that outdoor area, and they're just beautiful.

1725
01:36:42.600 --> 01:36:43.960
<v Speaker 5>And I know that, I know, you know.

1726
01:36:44.000 --> 01:36:47.319
<v Speaker 7>They're not recommended for this area because they're they like that,

1727
01:36:47.399 --> 01:36:50.520
<v Speaker 7>they're not really freeze tolerant. But we did a good

1728
01:36:50.560 --> 01:36:52.680
<v Speaker 7>job of protecting them. So so far, so good. I

1729
01:36:52.720 --> 01:36:54.880
<v Speaker 7>just want to make sure if pruning them at this time,

1730
01:36:55.000 --> 01:36:59.640
<v Speaker 7>like right now, it's okay to cut them back like today.

1731
01:36:59.720 --> 01:37:03.039
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, today is fine. We're done with cold. It's good

1732
01:37:03.039 --> 01:37:05.720
<v Speaker 2>to go ahead and use them. By the way, I

1733
01:37:05.760 --> 01:37:07.800
<v Speaker 2>love your area out there. I think it's I think

1734
01:37:07.840 --> 01:37:10.640
<v Speaker 2>cat Springs is great and just northy. I love the

1735
01:37:10.680 --> 01:37:13.439
<v Speaker 2>Agriculture Society Hall that's out there. That is one of

1736
01:37:13.520 --> 01:37:15.319
<v Speaker 2>those cool old time halls.

1737
01:37:16.479 --> 01:37:18.800
<v Speaker 7>It is indeed, it is indeed, and we enjoy it

1738
01:37:18.800 --> 01:37:21.760
<v Speaker 7>out here. And yeah, hey, thanks so much, and have

1739
01:37:21.840 --> 01:37:24.079
<v Speaker 7>a good, good weekend and much appreciate it.

01:37:25.640 --> 01:37:28.359
<v Speaker 2>Yeah all right, you take care. Appreciate that very much.

1741
01:37:28.840 --> 01:37:31.079
<v Speaker 2>Plants for All Seasons is the garden center there on

1742
01:37:31.119 --> 01:37:34.079
<v Speaker 2>two forty nine, just north of Doorada, and I mean

1743
01:37:34.159 --> 01:37:36.399
<v Speaker 2>just north, like you exit Luetta and you just go

1744
01:37:36.479 --> 01:37:38.600
<v Speaker 2>north on the feeder road just to like a block

1745
01:37:39.159 --> 01:37:42.159
<v Speaker 2>and you're there at Plants for all seasons. They are

1746
01:37:42.199 --> 01:37:45.039
<v Speaker 2>true lawn and garden experts. These folks have been doing this.

1747
01:37:45.119 --> 01:37:48.359
<v Speaker 2>In fact, the garden center's been around since nineteen seventy

1748
01:37:48.399 --> 01:37:50.720
<v Speaker 2>three and the Flowerty family is run it the whole time.

1749
01:37:51.600 --> 01:37:54.920
<v Speaker 2>They grew up gardening. I mean they know gardening. They

1750
01:37:55.000 --> 01:37:57.800
<v Speaker 2>garden in this area. You can bring them samples and

1751
01:37:57.840 --> 01:38:00.800
<v Speaker 2>plants and other things and they will identify them when

1752
01:38:00.880 --> 01:38:03.880
<v Speaker 2>you go in. There's always the best plants for the

1753
01:38:03.960 --> 01:38:06.560
<v Speaker 2>season available for you. You know, some things like shrubs

1754
01:38:06.600 --> 01:38:09.439
<v Speaker 2>or a year round of course and everything. But when

1755
01:38:09.520 --> 01:38:12.039
<v Speaker 2>we're what vegetables do we plant? What flowers are good for?

1756
01:38:12.119 --> 01:38:14.920
<v Speaker 2>Right now? You know what's good for the shade. You

1757
01:38:14.960 --> 01:38:17.079
<v Speaker 2>just go check it out. Check out their pots too,

1758
01:38:17.439 --> 01:38:21.600
<v Speaker 2>gorgeous pottery. And I was talking about containers. You need

1759
01:38:21.640 --> 01:38:23.920
<v Speaker 2>to do a container this year. And when you buy

1760
01:38:24.039 --> 01:38:26.439
<v Speaker 2>a quality pottery. And listen, over my life, I have

1761
01:38:26.439 --> 01:38:30.960
<v Speaker 2>bought cheap pottery and it's gone. It broke, it froze

1762
01:38:31.039 --> 01:38:35.199
<v Speaker 2>in a cracked or something. I bought plastic pottery, it's gone.

1763
01:38:35.640 --> 01:38:39.520
<v Speaker 2>The pottery that's glazed, it's beautiful. Yes, it's more expensive,

1764
01:38:39.640 --> 01:38:42.760
<v Speaker 2>but just at whatever pace, you can pick one up

1765
01:38:42.800 --> 01:38:45.000
<v Speaker 2>here and there and those are the ones that are

1766
01:38:45.039 --> 01:38:48.960
<v Speaker 2>still rounding my landscape for decades. And all you got

1767
01:38:49.039 --> 01:38:51.359
<v Speaker 2>to do is say, by plants for all seasons, take

1768
01:38:51.359 --> 01:38:52.800
<v Speaker 2>a look at what they have. They will help you

1769
01:38:52.840 --> 01:38:56.319
<v Speaker 2>pick out the plants to create that beautiful combo planter

1770
01:38:56.760 --> 01:39:00.840
<v Speaker 2>that'll make your patio really really pop. They are on

1771
01:39:01.319 --> 01:39:04.880
<v Speaker 2>two forty nine, just north of Luetta Road two eight one,

1772
01:39:05.159 --> 01:39:09.920
<v Speaker 2>three seven six sixteen forty six. Go now out to

1773
01:39:10.199 --> 01:39:14.560
<v Speaker 2>talk to Katie and Cyprus. Hey, Katie, Hey, good morning.

1774
01:39:14.720 --> 01:39:17.199
<v Speaker 27>A few weeks ago you told a gentleman who had

1775
01:39:17.199 --> 01:39:20.199
<v Speaker 27>a clover issue to go to Ace Hardware get some

1776
01:39:20.279 --> 01:39:25.279
<v Speaker 27>weed a side, make sure it had this. It starts

1777
01:39:25.279 --> 01:39:28.800
<v Speaker 27>with a T, not an A. And I cannot remember

1778
01:39:29.119 --> 01:39:30.800
<v Speaker 27>what those I went to the Ace Hardware. They had

1779
01:39:30.840 --> 01:39:32.840
<v Speaker 27>no idea what I was talking about. Never heard of

1780
01:39:32.840 --> 01:39:37.000
<v Speaker 27>weed aside, never heard of like, Okay, the word.

1781
01:39:40.039 --> 01:39:45.079
<v Speaker 2>I'm just that I'm hearing what you're saying. And it's yeah,

1782
01:39:45.199 --> 01:39:46.840
<v Speaker 2>tea is in Tom or pa is.

1783
01:39:46.880 --> 01:39:50.520
<v Speaker 28>In party, teas in Tom and it's a word like tetra.

1784
01:39:50.600 --> 01:39:53.079
<v Speaker 28>And I don't I can't even begin to say.

1785
01:39:53.079 --> 01:39:57.399
<v Speaker 2>Okay, try it well. It feels like we're mixing a

1786
01:39:57.399 --> 01:39:59.319
<v Speaker 2>couple of calls up at least what I'm hearing in

1787
01:39:59.359 --> 01:40:01.520
<v Speaker 2>my head, I have to run to a break, Katie.

1788
01:40:01.520 --> 01:40:04.800
<v Speaker 2>If you will hang on, let me come right back

1789
01:40:04.880 --> 01:40:07.319
<v Speaker 2>and we'll dive back into this. Are you you are

1790
01:40:07.359 --> 01:40:09.640
<v Speaker 2>trying to kill weeds in the lawn though? Is that correct?

1791
01:40:10.840 --> 01:40:11.079
<v Speaker 6>Yes?

1792
01:40:11.119 --> 01:40:14.560
<v Speaker 2>All right, all right, we'll be we'll be. Yeah, we'll

1793
01:40:14.600 --> 01:40:16.840
<v Speaker 2>be right back with you. Thank you for hanging on.

1794
01:40:17.800 --> 01:40:24.039
<v Speaker 2>It's okay to Dan. You're listening girdling. Yeah, all right,

1795
01:40:24.279 --> 01:40:26.359
<v Speaker 2>Well it's not a jenner bug, but it's a great yess.

1796
01:40:26.880 --> 01:40:30.239
<v Speaker 2>So get up, let's do this. Hey, welcome back. Good

1797
01:40:30.279 --> 01:40:32.960
<v Speaker 2>to have you with us. You're listening to Guardline. I'm

1798
01:40:33.000 --> 01:40:36.760
<v Speaker 2>your host, skip ricord seven one three two one two

1799
01:40:36.880 --> 01:40:38.479
<v Speaker 2>k t R eight seven one three two and two

1800
01:40:38.520 --> 01:40:41.199
<v Speaker 2>k H. We're just visiting with Katie from Cyprus, which

1801
01:40:41.279 --> 01:40:43.840
<v Speaker 2>is where we're going back. Katie. I've been thinking about

1802
01:40:44.159 --> 01:40:49.000
<v Speaker 2>your question, and so I think the a thing. I

1803
01:40:49.199 --> 01:40:52.239
<v Speaker 2>probably made a statement that when it comes to pre emergence,

1804
01:40:52.560 --> 01:40:57.479
<v Speaker 2>I generally don't recommend atrazine type products because they're easily

1805
01:40:57.520 --> 01:41:01.840
<v Speaker 2>misused and can cause some problems. I don't go on

1806
01:41:01.840 --> 01:41:04.840
<v Speaker 2>all the detail, but I don't recommend afterzines. Generally I

1807
01:41:04.880 --> 01:41:09.560
<v Speaker 2>go with other types of pre emergent herbicides, and the

1808
01:41:09.600 --> 01:41:12.520
<v Speaker 2>herbicide just means it kills weeds. There are things you

1809
01:41:12.520 --> 01:41:14.640
<v Speaker 2>put out to prevent weeds and there's things you put

1810
01:41:14.640 --> 01:41:18.520
<v Speaker 2>out to kill existing weeds, and so right now we

1811
01:41:18.680 --> 01:41:22.119
<v Speaker 2>kind of can be doing both. But the prevention for

1812
01:41:22.199 --> 01:41:26.279
<v Speaker 2>warm season we mainly have been doing since February mid February,

1813
01:41:27.079 --> 01:41:30.640
<v Speaker 2>and then the existing weeds you have to use a

1814
01:41:30.880 --> 01:41:35.079
<v Speaker 2>post emergent for that. So are you're wanting to control

1815
01:41:35.119 --> 01:41:36.880
<v Speaker 2>weeds that you're seeing now right?

1816
01:41:38.319 --> 01:41:42.079
<v Speaker 28>Well, whenever you told the gentleman, that was exactly it.

1817
01:41:42.079 --> 01:41:45.119
<v Speaker 28>It was something to prevent it. It was something that

1818
01:41:45.159 --> 01:41:48.800
<v Speaker 28>you applied when it was wet, like perfectly three days

1819
01:41:48.800 --> 01:41:51.119
<v Speaker 28>in a row to stick to the clover.

1820
01:41:51.399 --> 01:41:54.520
<v Speaker 2>I got you, it was, I got you, Yes, okay,

1821
01:41:54.640 --> 01:42:03.840
<v Speaker 2>So that was okay. So Nitrofus makes a product that

1822
01:42:03.960 --> 01:42:08.000
<v Speaker 2>has trimech in it. That's a t Trimech is in

1823
01:42:08.920 --> 01:42:14.520
<v Speaker 2>the Nitropuss fertilizer that's in a bluish bag. So they

1824
01:42:14.600 --> 01:42:19.359
<v Speaker 2>have a purple bag that is a fertilizer with atrazine.

1825
01:42:19.840 --> 01:42:23.479
<v Speaker 2>That was the conversation. Now I'm understanding what you heard.

1826
01:42:23.880 --> 01:42:27.680
<v Speaker 2>That was the conversation. You can control weeds post emergent

1827
01:42:27.960 --> 01:42:31.199
<v Speaker 2>with that when you're going to fertilize. There are times

1828
01:42:31.239 --> 01:42:33.720
<v Speaker 2>when it is appropriate to have we control at the

1829
01:42:33.760 --> 01:42:38.159
<v Speaker 2>same time, like that in them we If you've fertilize

1830
01:42:38.199 --> 01:42:41.159
<v Speaker 2>your lawn, then you just grab a product that you

1831
01:42:41.279 --> 01:42:43.960
<v Speaker 2>mix up and spray on the weeds. If you have

1832
01:42:44.439 --> 01:42:47.680
<v Speaker 2>a spotty weed issue, it's easier to do it with

1833
01:42:47.760 --> 01:42:50.079
<v Speaker 2>a spray on product because you just mix it up

1834
01:42:50.079 --> 01:42:51.800
<v Speaker 2>and you walk over here and scored a few weeds,

1835
01:42:51.800 --> 01:42:53.359
<v Speaker 2>and you go over there and score a few weeds

1836
01:42:53.680 --> 01:42:57.279
<v Speaker 2>and so on. Whereas with the fertilizer combo, then you're

1837
01:42:57.560 --> 01:43:00.439
<v Speaker 2>going to put herbicide over your whole lawn. And that

1838
01:43:00.479 --> 01:43:02.239
<v Speaker 2>would be if you got a lot of weed issues

1839
01:43:02.279 --> 01:43:04.399
<v Speaker 2>that you're dealing with. Yeah, that makes sense.

1840
01:43:04.720 --> 01:43:07.159
<v Speaker 28>It was a purple bagg I know you told them

1841
01:43:07.239 --> 01:43:08.439
<v Speaker 28>to put it in a spreader.

1842
01:43:10.239 --> 01:43:11.680
<v Speaker 5>Yes, so that makes.

1843
01:43:11.560 --> 01:43:17.439
<v Speaker 2>Yes, that's what it was. And the light blue bag. Yeah,

1844
01:43:17.479 --> 01:43:20.359
<v Speaker 2>but Trimac t r I MAC would be the one.

1845
01:43:20.479 --> 01:43:25.039
<v Speaker 2>And with that, uh, you know, the Nelson's has a

1846
01:43:25.039 --> 01:43:28.800
<v Speaker 2>product called Weedinator and it works the same way. You

1847
01:43:29.000 --> 01:43:33.560
<v Speaker 2>have to wet the weeds and and that don't water

1848
01:43:33.680 --> 01:43:36.000
<v Speaker 2>the lawn. Just wet the weed, barely wet the weed leaves,

1849
01:43:36.039 --> 01:43:38.319
<v Speaker 2>and then put it out immediately so it sticks to

1850
01:43:38.359 --> 01:43:40.840
<v Speaker 2>the wet weed leaves. Leave it for a couple of

1851
01:43:40.880 --> 01:43:43.560
<v Speaker 2>days before watering it in and getting that fertilizer down

1852
01:43:43.600 --> 01:43:45.279
<v Speaker 2>in the ground, if you're going to go that route.

1853
01:43:45.720 --> 01:43:48.439
<v Speaker 2>But yeah, that that was and I think the call

1854
01:43:48.520 --> 01:43:50.479
<v Speaker 2>at that time actually may have been someone who had

1855
01:43:50.479 --> 01:43:54.920
<v Speaker 2>bermuda grass, and atrazine is very damaging to be bermuda grass,

1856
01:43:54.960 --> 01:43:56.680
<v Speaker 2>so you don't want to use it on bermuda. That'd

1857
01:43:56.720 --> 01:43:59.800
<v Speaker 2>be another reason why I wouldn't have recommended that at

1858
01:43:59.800 --> 01:44:00.399
<v Speaker 2>that time.

1859
01:44:01.439 --> 01:44:02.199
<v Speaker 27>Thank you so much.

1860
01:44:03.039 --> 01:44:06.680
<v Speaker 2>All right, Katie, all right, the mystery in the words

1861
01:44:06.680 --> 01:44:10.119
<v Speaker 2>of the inspector Clouseau Pink Panther, the mystery is solved.

1862
01:44:10.640 --> 01:44:11.159
<v Speaker 2>We have done.

1863
01:44:11.319 --> 01:44:12.359
<v Speaker 27>Oh thank you.

1864
01:44:13.760 --> 01:44:16.800
<v Speaker 2>Oh there you go. Thanks Katie. Take care. How many

1865
01:44:16.840 --> 01:44:20.760
<v Speaker 2>of you guys remember Pink Panther movies? Oh my gosh.

1866
01:44:20.880 --> 01:44:24.000
<v Speaker 2>I could watch them over and over again growing up

1867
01:44:24.720 --> 01:44:28.640
<v Speaker 2>and in later years. Ye know, Pink Panther is just

1868
01:44:29.079 --> 01:44:31.600
<v Speaker 2>it is one of those kinds of humor that you

1869
01:44:31.680 --> 01:44:35.600
<v Speaker 2>just watch this bumbling fool turn everything into a disaster.

1870
01:44:36.479 --> 01:44:38.560
<v Speaker 2>So funny. Steve Martin by the way, did a good

1871
01:44:38.600 --> 01:44:41.880
<v Speaker 2>job of picking up after Peter Sellers. I have my doubts,

1872
01:44:41.960 --> 01:44:44.439
<v Speaker 2>but I shouldn't doubt Steve Martin. All right, what are

1873
01:44:44.479 --> 01:44:47.199
<v Speaker 2>we doing? This is a gardening show. Seven one three

1874
01:44:47.319 --> 01:44:50.159
<v Speaker 2>two one two k t r H seven one three

1875
01:44:50.239 --> 01:44:52.279
<v Speaker 2>two one two k t RH you're talking about that

1876
01:44:52.359 --> 01:44:55.399
<v Speaker 2>night Foss products. Another one they have is called Sweet Green,

1877
01:44:55.479 --> 01:44:58.560
<v Speaker 2>and it's a eleven percent nitrogen product that you put

1878
01:44:58.600 --> 01:45:02.680
<v Speaker 2>out for a fairly quick release of nutrients into the soil.

1879
01:45:03.359 --> 01:45:05.880
<v Speaker 2>You wet it, it dissolves, it goes down the carbon

1880
01:45:06.159 --> 01:45:09.279
<v Speaker 2>carbon chain. You know, sugar is basically carbon chain. Molasses

1881
01:45:09.359 --> 01:45:12.800
<v Speaker 2>is a carbon chain, and microbes love that. It really

1882
01:45:12.800 --> 01:45:16.640
<v Speaker 2>increases a population of beneficial microbes, creates that rich environment

1883
01:45:16.720 --> 01:45:20.680
<v Speaker 2>to promote optimum health and performance of your lawn. And

1884
01:45:20.720 --> 01:45:24.600
<v Speaker 2>it smells good too. With Sweet Green, you just follow

1885
01:45:24.640 --> 01:45:27.720
<v Speaker 2>the label. It's about about ten pounds per thousand square

1886
01:45:27.720 --> 01:45:29.760
<v Speaker 2>feet that it would go out. And you're going to

1887
01:45:29.800 --> 01:45:32.920
<v Speaker 2>find nitro Fosh products at places like Court Hardware on

1888
01:45:33.079 --> 01:45:36.279
<v Speaker 2>South Maine and Stafford. You're going to find it at

1889
01:45:36.479 --> 01:45:40.039
<v Speaker 2>Stanton Shopping Center in Alvin, North Taylor. You can find

1890
01:45:40.079 --> 01:45:42.439
<v Speaker 2>it at M and D both the one on Beamer

1891
01:45:42.800 --> 01:45:45.399
<v Speaker 2>and the one on Bay Area Boulevard done in clear Lake.

1892
01:45:46.279 --> 01:45:50.279
<v Speaker 2>Night Fresh products are readily available all over the place,

1893
01:45:50.439 --> 01:45:54.960
<v Speaker 2>and sweet Green is a great product. If you would

1894
01:45:55.000 --> 01:45:57.319
<v Speaker 2>like to give us a call and talk gardening seven

1897
01:46:07.319 --> 01:46:10.319
<v Speaker 2>in Seabrook. The first time I went there, I was

1898
01:46:10.439 --> 01:46:13.600
<v Speaker 2>just kind of like, does this place go on forever?

1899
01:46:13.720 --> 01:46:15.840
<v Speaker 2>I mean, I don't even know where to go. Well,

1900
01:46:15.920 --> 01:46:18.119
<v Speaker 2>you go where you want to go. It's eight acres.

1901
01:46:18.239 --> 01:46:22.039
<v Speaker 2>You wander through it, the pathways, through the plants, through

1902
01:46:22.079 --> 01:46:26.840
<v Speaker 2>the largest selection of pottery I've seen anywhere, and you know,

1903
01:46:27.000 --> 01:46:29.720
<v Speaker 2>one minute you're going through vegetables and herbs, and then

1904
01:46:29.760 --> 01:46:33.439
<v Speaker 2>you're in hanging baskets and then just tons of flowering

1905
01:46:33.479 --> 01:46:38.439
<v Speaker 2>plants for your color beds. There's fruit section, there's shrubs

1906
01:46:38.479 --> 01:46:40.720
<v Speaker 2>and trees. When you go though, you have to go

1907

<v Speaker 2>Okay name, Thanks for fixing that all.

1927
01:47:52.800 --> 01:47:56.960
<v Speaker 8>Right, my Okay, I was bad. I ignored my high biscus.

1928
01:47:57.039 --> 01:47:59.439
<v Speaker 8>I mean I did bring it in during when the

1929
01:47:59.520 --> 01:48:02.520
<v Speaker 8>colts fell. But the leaves, some of them are yellowy

1930
01:48:02.640 --> 01:48:05.159
<v Speaker 8>green and then they have the little dots on the back.

1931
01:48:05.239 --> 01:48:08.600
<v Speaker 8>I've got the mealy bugs before, but I haven't seen

1932
01:48:08.760 --> 01:48:12.520
<v Speaker 8>you know all these What do I do to help?

1933
01:48:12.880 --> 01:48:14.800
<v Speaker 8>It has a beautiful color which it blew?

1934
01:48:14.920 --> 01:48:21.880
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, well, I need to see those dots because there

1935
01:48:21.880 --> 01:48:25.880
<v Speaker 2>are different things that could be called white dots. Certainly

1936
01:48:26.000 --> 01:48:36.279
<v Speaker 2>mealy bugs, they oh black dots. Okay, I see, Okay,

1937
01:48:36.640 --> 01:48:42.079
<v Speaker 2>are your leaves getting city black mold on them?

1938
01:48:42.239 --> 01:48:43.439
<v Speaker 8>I didn't see?

1939
01:48:44.039 --> 01:48:45.119
<v Speaker 2>Not yet?

1940
01:48:45.399 --> 01:48:46.199
<v Speaker 24>No, not yet.

1941
01:48:46.359 --> 01:48:48.319
<v Speaker 2>I'll tell you what I mean. I could, I could

1942
01:48:48.359 --> 01:48:51.319
<v Speaker 2>suggest things, or we could give you the better answer

1943
01:48:51.359 --> 01:48:54.079
<v Speaker 2>by you taking some close up pictures. Make before you

1944
01:48:54.119 --> 01:48:56.079
<v Speaker 2>send them, make sure they're in sharp focus, get them

1945
01:48:56.079 --> 01:48:58.960
<v Speaker 2>as close as you can of the black dots, and

1946
01:48:59.279 --> 01:49:01.119
<v Speaker 2>maybe show me one of the whole plant, but the

1947
01:49:01.159 --> 01:49:04.520
<v Speaker 2>black dots, and then let me recommend something. There are

1948
01:49:04.600 --> 01:49:08.000
<v Speaker 2>aphids that are black that could be out there. There

1949
01:49:08.000 --> 01:49:10.399
<v Speaker 2>are other insects that could be present, or it could

1950
01:49:10.399 --> 01:49:13.680
<v Speaker 2>be something else. But rather than go out and just

1951
01:49:13.680 --> 01:49:16.399
<v Speaker 2>start using a pesticide, let me take a look and

1952
01:49:16.600 --> 01:49:18.920
<v Speaker 2>I'll give you a better answer that way.

1953
01:49:19.000 --> 01:49:20.600
<v Speaker 8>Okay, Okay, I appreciate that.

1954
01:49:20.680 --> 01:49:21.079
<v Speaker 10>I'll hang on.

1955
01:49:21.159 --> 01:49:23.319
<v Speaker 8>But one more question. You're talking with lady about the

1956
01:49:23.359 --> 01:49:26.359
<v Speaker 8>whedon feed? Is it still okay to do that nitrofoss

1957
01:49:26.359 --> 01:49:29.359
<v Speaker 8>whedon feed? My front of my yard has lots of

1958
01:49:29.399 --> 01:49:31.199
<v Speaker 8>weeds in it, and we.

1959
01:49:31.119 --> 01:49:31.520
<v Speaker 22>Did do that.

1960
01:49:32.000 --> 01:49:36.319
<v Speaker 8>You can't, but I guess the ones that just hung

1961
01:49:36.359 --> 01:49:37.399
<v Speaker 8>around from winter.

1962
01:49:38.720 --> 01:49:42.199
<v Speaker 2>Yes, yes, the barricade was for weeds that right now

1963
01:49:42.279 --> 01:49:46.159
<v Speaker 2>are little tiny seedlings, the ones you see. That's what

1964
01:49:46.239 --> 01:49:49.520
<v Speaker 2>you did. The nitrofoss blue bag like blue bag, kind

1965
01:49:49.520 --> 01:49:52.960
<v Speaker 2>of a steel blue color. I'm not good at well, no, I'm.

1966
01:49:52.800 --> 01:49:54.000
<v Speaker 20>Not it yet.

1967
01:49:54.039 --> 01:49:55.760
<v Speaker 8>I was going to get my husband. I thought it

1968
01:49:55.840 --> 01:49:58.520
<v Speaker 8>was a well, I don't know what color, greenish back.

1969
01:49:58.640 --> 01:50:00.239
<v Speaker 8>I don't know, maybe it is, but it's it's a

1970
01:50:00.279 --> 01:50:01.119
<v Speaker 8>trimac in it.

1971
01:50:02.760 --> 01:50:06.199
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, that's there's only one that has trimac from nitrobus. Yeah,

1972
01:50:06.239 --> 01:50:08.960
<v Speaker 2>you could do that with the leaves. Do it soon

1973
01:50:09.520 --> 01:50:12.159
<v Speaker 2>one morning, get up early with the leaves and then

1974
01:50:12.920 --> 01:50:15.239
<v Speaker 2>just put it right out, give it a couple of

1975
01:50:15.279 --> 01:50:17.880
<v Speaker 2>days and then water it in. So get that fertilizer

1976
01:50:17.960 --> 01:50:22.760
<v Speaker 2>down in there and that should still work. Okay, don't

1977
01:50:22.760 --> 01:50:23.359
<v Speaker 2>delay though.

1978
01:50:24.000 --> 01:50:26.199
<v Speaker 8>No, it's damp now, and I don't think the rain's

1979
01:50:26.199 --> 01:50:27.319
<v Speaker 8>coming in my area yet.

1980
01:50:27.359 --> 01:50:32.720
<v Speaker 2>So all right, all right, well, so like if it's

1981
01:50:32.840 --> 01:50:36.840
<v Speaker 2>if it was, yeah, if it's going to rain in

1982
01:50:36.880 --> 01:50:42.079
<v Speaker 2>a day or even you know, but then it'll probably

1983
01:50:42.159 --> 01:50:45.960
<v Speaker 2>rain tomorrow too. There I would I would hold off

1984
01:50:46.800 --> 01:50:48.520
<v Speaker 2>because you don't want it. You wanted to sit on

1985
01:50:48.560 --> 01:50:50.880
<v Speaker 2>the leaves for a little while. You need at least

1986
01:50:50.920 --> 01:50:52.840
<v Speaker 2>a number of hours of it on the wheat on

1987
01:50:52.920 --> 01:50:53.399
<v Speaker 2>the leaves.

1988
01:50:53.479 --> 01:50:55.560
<v Speaker 8>Okay, okay, well I'll.

1989
01:50:55.399 --> 01:50:59.600
<v Speaker 2>Wait, all right, Thank you very much. Appreciate. Yes, I'm

1990
01:50:59.600 --> 01:51:02.560
<v Speaker 2>putting you on hold. Jonathan will take your call and

1991
01:51:02.600 --> 01:51:05.359
<v Speaker 2>give you an email. Thanks a lot. I appreciate, appreciate

1992
01:51:05.399 --> 01:51:09.279
<v Speaker 2>your call. Talking about nos Moss, I just I just

1993
01:51:09.359 --> 01:51:12.239
<v Speaker 2>love that place. I love love going through it. It's

1994
01:51:12.239 --> 01:51:18.840
<v Speaker 2>so cool. We're talking about barricade there visiting with Sharon.

1995
01:51:19.680 --> 01:51:24.680
<v Speaker 2>The barricade product is designed to prevent weed seeds. And

1996
01:51:24.880 --> 01:51:28.800
<v Speaker 2>I did a little video on this for Facebook and Instagram.

1997
01:51:28.840 --> 01:51:31.199
<v Speaker 2>I believe a while back's in a little while. But

1998
01:51:31.279 --> 01:51:33.640
<v Speaker 2>what's a pre emergent? What's a post emergent? And because

1999
01:51:33.640 --> 01:51:35.880
<v Speaker 2>people get them confused, they got I got weeds, I'm

2000
01:51:35.880 --> 01:51:38.199
<v Speaker 2>going to put out barricade. Well know, if you got weeds,

2001
01:51:38.399 --> 01:51:40.960
<v Speaker 2>you don't use barricade. If you want to not have

2002
01:51:41.039 --> 01:51:44.199
<v Speaker 2>weeds later, you use a barricade because it stops the

2003
01:51:44.239 --> 01:51:47.159
<v Speaker 2>seeds from coming up. You watered in about a half

2004
01:51:47.199 --> 01:51:49.560
<v Speaker 2>inch of water. It sticks into the surface better than

2005
01:51:49.600 --> 01:51:52.600
<v Speaker 2>most pre emergent products do. By the way, doesn't tend

2006
01:51:52.640 --> 01:51:56.119
<v Speaker 2>to wash away. Uh And one ten pound bag will

2007
01:51:56.119 --> 01:51:59.159
<v Speaker 2>cover five thousand square feet. But follow the label on

2008
01:51:59.199 --> 01:52:03.439
<v Speaker 2>the amount you put it. Always follow the label that barricade.

2009
01:52:03.479 --> 01:52:05.840
<v Speaker 2>Other Night Foss products you're gonna find at places like

2010
01:52:05.960 --> 01:52:10.479
<v Speaker 2>RCW Nursery on Tomball Parkway plans for all seasons on Luetta.

2011
01:52:10.920 --> 01:52:14.760
<v Speaker 2>If you are down in Pasadena, Laporte or Mount Bellevue,

2012
01:52:15.000 --> 01:52:18.359
<v Speaker 2>each of you has a Fisher's hardware that carries Nito

2013
01:52:18.399 --> 01:52:24.359
<v Speaker 2>Foss products as well. So talking about things to do

2014
01:52:24.399 --> 01:52:26.399
<v Speaker 2>in the garden and whatnot. When I come back, I

2015
01:52:26.439 --> 01:52:29.840
<v Speaker 2>want to give you a few tips on some keys

2016
01:52:29.880 --> 01:52:34.000

2017
01:52:34.439 --> 01:52:38.479
<v Speaker 2>As we start each season, and this is the start

01:54:45.439 --> 01:54:48.199
<v Speaker 2>name brands are there. In fact, if they don't have it,

2054
01:54:48.239 --> 01:54:50.119
<v Speaker 2>you don't need it. I like to say that because

2055
01:54:50.119 --> 01:54:53.640
<v Speaker 2>it's true. I've never walked into there and not seen

2056
01:54:53.680 --> 01:54:55.840
<v Speaker 2>a product that I think ought to be sold to

2057
01:54:55.840 --> 01:54:58.359
<v Speaker 2>gardeners here in the Greater Houston area corner of Best

2058
01:54:58.399 --> 01:55:01.800
<v Speaker 2>Net and Run makes Southwest Fertilizer seven to one three

2059
01:55:02.199 --> 01:55:06.159
<v Speaker 2>six six six one seven four four. When you walk in,

2060
01:55:06.239 --> 01:55:09.560
<v Speaker 2>you're gonna get friendly service, You're definitely gonna find quality products,

2061
01:55:09.680 --> 01:55:12.079
<v Speaker 2>and you are going to find a selection like nowhere else.

2062
01:55:12.159 --> 01:55:15.520
<v Speaker 2>And by the way, if you're organic, there's not a

2063
01:55:15.560 --> 01:55:18.560
<v Speaker 2>bigger selection of organics anywhere in the Greater Houston area

2064
01:55:18.640 --> 01:55:26.079
<v Speaker 2>than Southwest Fertilizer. That is a fact. Uh. The I

2065
01:55:26.119 --> 01:55:30.119
<v Speaker 2>have a rob I have a robin that is an

2066
01:55:30.199 --> 01:55:31.000
<v Speaker 2>early riser.

2067
01:55:31.760 --> 01:55:31.880
<v Speaker 11>Uh.

2068
01:55:31.920 --> 01:55:34.800
<v Speaker 2>And this morning a five am dark as it could

2069
01:55:34.800 --> 01:55:35.479
<v Speaker 2>be outside.

2070
01:55:36.159 --> 01:55:36.439
<v Speaker 11>Uh.

2071
01:55:36.720 --> 01:55:40.399
<v Speaker 2>Actually it's a blue be four five o'clock. Darn robin

2072
01:55:40.520 --> 01:55:43.079
<v Speaker 2>is singing to me through the door. I wasn't gonna

2073
01:55:43.079 --> 01:55:44.880
<v Speaker 2>go outside in the plot or anything, but I mean

2074
01:55:44.880 --> 01:55:47.119
<v Speaker 2>it was. It was amazing. I don't I don't know

2075
01:55:47.159 --> 01:55:49.119
<v Speaker 2>what's going on that you talk about. The early bird

2076
01:55:49.159 --> 01:55:51.720
<v Speaker 2>gets the worm. That is the early bird.

2077
01:55:52.399 --> 01:55:52.560
<v Speaker 5>Uh.

2078
01:55:52.600 --> 01:55:55.479
<v Speaker 2>And I've started appreciating birds a lot more ever since

2079
01:55:55.520 --> 01:55:59.920
<v Speaker 2>I started going into wild Bird's Unlimited stores. Wildbird's Unlimited

2080
01:56:00.359 --> 01:56:03.840
<v Speaker 2>carries everything you need to have success, and they are everywhere.

2081
01:56:04.159 --> 01:56:06.880
<v Speaker 2>They're six stores here in the Greater Houston area. So

2082
01:56:07.199 --> 01:56:09.680
<v Speaker 2>if you live in clear Lake Eldorado Boulevard, if you

2083
01:56:09.720 --> 01:56:12.840
<v Speaker 2>live in Cypress on Barker Cypress Road, if you live

2084
01:56:13.359 --> 01:56:17.760
<v Speaker 2>down in the southern central part of Houston bel Air Boulevard,

2085
01:56:18.039 --> 01:56:20.279
<v Speaker 2>if you're out west, A Memorial Drive is a store

2086
01:56:20.720 --> 01:56:25.159
<v Speaker 2>Kingwood Drive in Kingwood Broadway, East Broadway in pair Land

2087
01:56:25.319 --> 01:56:30.439
<v Speaker 2>or all Wawbirds unlimited store locations. Right now, the feed

2088
01:56:30.560 --> 01:56:33.920
<v Speaker 2>of the day is they're nesting Superblend. It's got the

2089
01:56:34.000 --> 01:56:37.399
<v Speaker 2>essential protein birds need. It has calcium for not only

2090
01:56:37.439 --> 01:56:40.399
<v Speaker 2>the skeletal development, but also for the egg laying that's

2091
01:56:40.439 --> 01:56:42.960
<v Speaker 2>what happens during nesting season. You can buy it in

2092
01:56:42.960 --> 01:56:44.960
<v Speaker 2>a cylinder or in a loose bag, goes in any

2093
01:56:45.039 --> 01:56:48.439
<v Speaker 2>kind of feeder and it works well. Nesting super Blend

2094
01:56:48.479 --> 01:56:50.640
<v Speaker 2>also has some meal worms in it. I've got it

2095
01:56:50.680 --> 01:56:54.680
<v Speaker 2>in my feeders right now, nest boxes for every kind

2096
01:56:54.680 --> 01:56:56.520
<v Speaker 2>of bird you want. You want to bring in, bluebirds,

2097
01:56:56.760 --> 01:56:59.840
<v Speaker 2>whatever you're looking for, they've got those as well. And

2098
01:57:00.039 --> 01:57:03.560
<v Speaker 2>hummingbird season is not far away, so just keep in mind.

2099
01:57:04.079 --> 01:57:07.079
<v Speaker 2>The best hummingbird feeder that I have, because you can

2100
01:57:07.079 --> 01:57:09.520
<v Speaker 2>see all the hummingbirds at wance, is the hyph Perch.

2101
01:57:09.640 --> 01:57:13.760
<v Speaker 2>It's a flat kind of a saucer shaped feeder. It

2102
01:57:13.800 --> 01:57:16.720
<v Speaker 2>has a little moat so ants can't get into it

2103
01:57:17.039 --> 01:57:21.000
<v Speaker 2>really really easy. The high Perch hummingbird feeder from wild

2104
01:57:21.039 --> 01:57:25.359
<v Speaker 2>Birds Unlimited just another one of the many, and I

2105
01:57:25.439 --> 01:57:27.800
<v Speaker 2>mean many great products. Plus when you go in there,

2106
01:57:27.800 --> 01:57:31.000
<v Speaker 2>you get good advice. I always have bird questions and

2107
01:57:31.079 --> 01:57:33.479
<v Speaker 2>I go in and I just know every time I ask,

2108
01:57:33.600 --> 01:57:36.000
<v Speaker 2>I'm going to get a good answer. And you know,

2109
01:57:36.479 --> 01:57:39.239
<v Speaker 2>I have to warn you though, just in all fairness,

2110
01:57:40.399 --> 01:57:43.920
<v Speaker 2>this is addictive. It really is. It's addictive, and so

2111
01:57:45.520 --> 01:57:48.039
<v Speaker 2>you've been forewarned. But I'll tell you this, you will

2112
01:57:48.039 --> 01:57:51.279
<v Speaker 2>have the best time in the world starting to learn

2113
01:57:51.439 --> 01:57:53.560
<v Speaker 2>the birds that you have in the yard, starting to

2114
01:57:53.560 --> 01:57:57.359
<v Speaker 2>bring them in. You know, when we landscape, we're doing

2115
01:57:57.399 --> 01:58:01.239
<v Speaker 2>a number of things. We're planting flowers and things for beauty,

2116
01:58:01.760 --> 01:58:06.119
<v Speaker 2>but we're considering texture with bold broad leaves or fine

2117
01:58:06.159 --> 01:58:10.439
<v Speaker 2>textured grasses. We're even considering movement. The way bamboo and

2118
01:58:10.520 --> 01:58:14.319
<v Speaker 2>grasses move in the wind is attractive. We attract butterflies

2119
01:58:14.359 --> 01:58:17.680
<v Speaker 2>in flying flowers. I call them butterflies going around the

2120
01:58:17.720 --> 01:58:21.199
<v Speaker 2>garden and landscape. There's sense that we put out there.

2121
01:58:21.239 --> 01:58:23.960
<v Speaker 2>So when we sit and enjoy the fragrance of plants

2122
01:58:24.279 --> 01:58:27.279
<v Speaker 2>and then the birds, the songs, the music and the

2123
01:58:27.399 --> 01:58:30.279
<v Speaker 2>visual of the birds is just part of creating that

2124
01:58:30.359 --> 01:58:32.520
<v Speaker 2>perfect garden of eden that you want to have in

2125
01:58:32.520 --> 01:58:37.159
<v Speaker 2>your backyard. So don't neglect any of the important aspects,

2126
01:58:37.239 --> 01:58:42.840
<v Speaker 2>including attracting the birds in quality. Home Products of Texas

2127
01:58:43.039 --> 01:58:46.880
<v Speaker 2>is a source where you can get that wonderful Generaic

2128
01:58:47.000 --> 01:58:49.920
<v Speaker 2>automatic stand by generator. And I say wonderful because no more,

2129
01:58:49.920 --> 01:58:53.760
<v Speaker 2>it's the quality product. But it comes on automatically. The

2130
01:58:53.800 --> 01:58:56.920
<v Speaker 2>automatic standby just comes on automatically, and so when power

2131
01:58:56.920 --> 01:58:59.359
<v Speaker 2>goes off, it comes on and it's amazing. I mean

2132
01:58:59.359 --> 01:59:02.880
<v Speaker 2>we're talking about like just microseconds that this thing is

2133
01:59:03.000 --> 01:59:07.520
<v Speaker 2>responding to the electrical flow in your home. Now, when

2134
01:59:07.520 --> 01:59:10.319
<v Speaker 2>you go in there, be aware that this family owned

2135

2140

2146
01:59:50.960 --> 01:59:53.439
<v Speaker 2>Texas and we're going to talk to Ann. If I

2147
01:59:53.479 --> 01:59:55.880
<v Speaker 2>can find the button, Ann, there we go. Welcome to

2148
01:59:55.920 --> 01:59:56.640
<v Speaker 2>garden Line.

2149
01:59:56.960 --> 02:00:01.279
<v Speaker 29>Thank you. I have a magno tree. It's a small leaf,

2150
02:00:01.439 --> 02:00:05.439
<v Speaker 29>it's about twelve foot tall, and it is just sickly.

2151
02:00:05.800 --> 02:00:08.880
<v Speaker 29>It's probably not in the best soil in the world.

2152
02:00:08.960 --> 02:00:13.479
<v Speaker 29>But I try to water it and help it. But

2153
02:00:14.199 --> 02:00:17.920
<v Speaker 29>it is unhappy, I guess, so it need suggestion.

2154
02:00:18.079 --> 02:00:23.640
<v Speaker 2>Okay, And you're talking about you're talking about an evergreen magnolia,

2155
02:00:23.720 --> 02:00:30.920
<v Speaker 2>right right, Okay, Magnolia's. Some things that can make them

2156
02:00:30.960 --> 02:00:36.840
<v Speaker 2>unhappy are soggy, wet soil conditions or droughty soil conditions,

2157
02:00:36.920 --> 02:00:39.840
<v Speaker 2>especially when it's a younger tree the first few years

2158
02:00:39.840 --> 02:00:42.640
<v Speaker 2>trying to get leaves. Droughty spells are not good, but

2159
02:00:42.880 --> 02:00:47.039
<v Speaker 2>neither is poor drainage. They need some sunlight in order

2160
02:00:47.119 --> 02:00:51.079
<v Speaker 2>to do well. Sometimes when you buy a tree the roots,

2161
02:00:51.119 --> 02:00:53.640
<v Speaker 2>it's been in the pot a long time and the

2162
02:00:53.760 --> 02:00:56.279
<v Speaker 2>roots are just going around and around in a circle.

2163
02:00:56.479 --> 02:00:58.359
<v Speaker 2>And if you don't cut them when you plant it,

2164
02:00:59.159 --> 02:01:03.720
<v Speaker 2>they they don't venture out as well to establish. They're

2165
02:01:03.720 --> 02:01:08.239
<v Speaker 2>certainly not as fast. And in time, as the roots

2166
02:01:08.279 --> 02:01:11.399
<v Speaker 2>get bigger and the trunk gets bigger, they can come

2167
02:01:11.439 --> 02:01:14.239
<v Speaker 2>together where the roots are like a band around the trunk,

2168
02:01:14.319 --> 02:01:17.560
<v Speaker 2>strangling it. So those are all possibilities of why a

2169
02:01:17.600 --> 02:01:21.079
<v Speaker 2>magnolia wouldn't perform. It'll take a while for that strangling

2170
02:01:21.199 --> 02:01:24.079
<v Speaker 2>root thing to happen. How long did you say years

2171
02:01:24.119 --> 02:01:24.960
<v Speaker 2>had been in the ground.

2172
02:01:25.960 --> 02:01:29.840
<v Speaker 29>Probably maybe three or four years.

2173
02:01:30.680 --> 02:01:34.279
<v Speaker 2>Okay, you definitely don't have a circling root problem. Yet

2174
02:01:34.640 --> 02:01:38.560
<v Speaker 2>they would take much longer than to develop. So I would,

2175
02:01:39.119 --> 02:01:41.840
<v Speaker 2>you know what I would do, make sure it's getting

2176
02:01:41.960 --> 02:01:44.119
<v Speaker 2>well watered. When we get into the hot weather and

2177
02:01:44.159 --> 02:01:46.720
<v Speaker 2>no rain headn't rained in a week, go out there

2178
02:01:46.760 --> 02:01:49.560
<v Speaker 2>and just with the hose end sprayer, just give it

2179
02:01:49.600 --> 02:01:53.079
<v Speaker 2>a good soaking. I mean I'll water a spot three

2180
02:01:53.159 --> 02:01:55.079
<v Speaker 2>or four times on water it and move around, water

2181
02:01:55.119 --> 02:01:57.319
<v Speaker 2>around the plant, around the plant. Come back and do that.

2182
02:01:57.840 --> 02:02:00.520
<v Speaker 2>Or you can buy a product that is called the

2183
02:02:00.600 --> 02:02:05.399
<v Speaker 2>tree hugger sprinkler, and they come in different sizes from

2184
02:02:05.439 --> 02:02:08.960
<v Speaker 2>seven inch up to eleven or more inches, and you

2185
02:02:09.079 --> 02:02:10.800
<v Speaker 2>hook them up to a hose and you can turn

2186
02:02:10.840 --> 02:02:13.479
<v Speaker 2>it on a little bit where it's just trickling out

2187
02:02:13.479 --> 02:02:17.079
<v Speaker 2>of that little let's say seven inch circle, or you

2188
02:02:17.119 --> 02:02:19.920
<v Speaker 2>can turn it up more, but use that to water

2189
02:02:20.000 --> 02:02:22.640
<v Speaker 2>with a good soaking. And I would do that, and

2190
02:02:22.640 --> 02:02:27.359
<v Speaker 2>then I would fertilize them with a good quality fertilizer. Personally,

2191
02:02:27.439 --> 02:02:31.239
<v Speaker 2>I would get you some lawn fertilizer, and for every

2192
02:02:31.319 --> 02:02:35.439
<v Speaker 2>inch of trunk diameter, I would give it one to

2193
02:02:35.560 --> 02:02:39.399
<v Speaker 2>two cups of fertilizer one to two cups per inch

2194
02:02:39.439 --> 02:02:41.760
<v Speaker 2>of trunk diameter. I do it right now, and I

2195
02:02:41.800 --> 02:02:43.520
<v Speaker 2>would do it again two months from now, and again

2196
02:02:43.560 --> 02:02:47.479
<v Speaker 2>two months later. And I think that combination of things

2197
02:02:47.640 --> 02:02:50.119
<v Speaker 2>is the best advice that I can give you. I'm

2198
02:02:50.199 --> 02:02:52.479

2206
02:03:15.920 --> 02:03:17.479

<v Speaker 2>you time to wake up. Welcome back to garden Line

2208

<v Speaker 2>seven one three two one two kt r H seven

2209
02:03:25.399 --> 02:03:27.359
<v Speaker 2>one three two one two k t r H. We're

2210
02:03:27.359 --> 02:03:31.079
<v Speaker 2>here to help you have a bountiful garden, a beautiful

2211
02:03:31.119 --> 02:03:34.800
<v Speaker 2>garden as well beautiful landscape and more fun in the process,

2212
02:03:35.039 --> 02:03:39.079
<v Speaker 2>including hopefully listening to garden Line as Amite is a

2213
02:03:39.119 --> 02:03:41.720
<v Speaker 2>product that we talked about earlier on the air. Someone

2214
02:03:41.760 --> 02:03:44.479
<v Speaker 2>had called and was wanting to know about using some

2215
02:03:44.640 --> 02:03:46.680
<v Speaker 2>various kinds of products. One of them was a might

2216
02:03:47.039 --> 02:03:50.119
<v Speaker 2>it's mine from a mine up in Utah, and it

2217
02:03:50.239 --> 02:03:54.079
<v Speaker 2>basically is a micro nutrient or a trace mineral, same

2218
02:03:54.119 --> 02:03:57.479
<v Speaker 2>thing type of product. You put it out to get

2219
02:03:57.520 --> 02:04:01.840
<v Speaker 2>the nutrients that are essential to plants, essential to plants,

2220
02:04:01.960 --> 02:04:05.399
<v Speaker 2>but needed in small quantities into your soul bank account.

2221
02:04:05.600 --> 02:04:08.880
<v Speaker 2>So when the plants grow and roots are taking up nutrients,

2222
02:04:09.119 --> 02:04:11.439
<v Speaker 2>you know, essentially twelve months out of the year, there's

2223
02:04:11.479 --> 02:04:14.520
<v Speaker 2>something going on down there, and they're there. They're in

2224
02:04:14.560 --> 02:04:16.840
<v Speaker 2>the soil. So when the when the plant is going,

2225
02:04:16.880 --> 02:04:18.199
<v Speaker 2>hey I need a little bit of zinc, or I

2226
02:04:18.239 --> 02:04:21.199
<v Speaker 2>need a little bit of boron. Well the route it's

2227
02:04:21.520 --> 02:04:23.199
<v Speaker 2>got it right here. The guy put a mite down,

2228
02:04:23.239 --> 02:04:25.720
<v Speaker 2>I got plenty of it right here, And that is

2229
02:04:25.800 --> 02:04:28.720
<v Speaker 2>kind of how that product works. Now, if you are

2230
02:04:28.760 --> 02:04:32.000
<v Speaker 2>looking for azmit, you're gonna find it all over almost

2231
02:04:32.119 --> 02:04:35.840
<v Speaker 2>every nursery I talk about, garden center, Ace hardware store,

2232
02:04:35.960 --> 02:04:39.840
<v Speaker 2>Southwest fertilizer feed stores. These are all places that typically

2233
02:04:39.880 --> 02:04:42.479
<v Speaker 2>will carry asamite. You can go to azmite Texas dot

2234
02:04:42.479 --> 02:04:44.760
<v Speaker 2>com for more information, and now would be a good

2235
02:04:44.800 --> 02:04:48.520
<v Speaker 2>time to get that first application onto your lawn this spring.

2236
02:04:50.359 --> 02:04:52.239
<v Speaker 2>I'm going to go now to Kingwood and we're going

2237
02:04:52.279 --> 02:04:54.560
<v Speaker 2>to talk to Mike. Hey, Mike, welcome to Guardline.

2238
02:04:55.960 --> 02:04:56.560
<v Speaker 6>Good morning.

2239
02:04:56.600 --> 02:04:59.000
<v Speaker 26>How are you doing today?

2240
02:04:59.199 --> 02:05:01.520
<v Speaker 2>I'm doing well, sir. How can I help great?

2241
02:05:01.720 --> 02:05:04.359
<v Speaker 5>Great in our yard?

2242
02:05:04.399 --> 02:05:06.920
<v Speaker 26>A couple of years ago, after one of the big storms,

2243
02:05:06.960 --> 02:05:13.159
<v Speaker 26>we started getting this weed, uh that is growing and

2244
02:05:13.199 --> 02:05:17.560
<v Speaker 26>growing and growing taking over and it's my wife used

2245
02:05:17.600 --> 02:05:19.960
<v Speaker 26>one of these online apps and it said it was

2246
02:05:20.039 --> 02:05:24.720
<v Speaker 26>stinging metal. I don't know if that if you know

2247
02:05:24.840 --> 02:05:26.560
<v Speaker 26>what that is or anything.

2248
02:05:26.159 --> 02:05:31.720
<v Speaker 2>But uh, anyway, I know, well it okay, go ahead.

2249
02:05:31.880 --> 02:05:37.680
<v Speaker 26>It's more it's more like a groundcover. And yeah, whenever

2250
02:05:37.720 --> 02:05:40.000
<v Speaker 26>it's like right now, you could go out and pull

2251
02:05:40.039 --> 02:05:42.600
<v Speaker 26>it and it comes up in clumps and you can

2252
02:05:42.800 --> 02:05:44.760
<v Speaker 26>and you can do that all right later on.

2253
02:05:45.520 --> 02:05:49.479
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, I know what. I know which one you're talking about. Actually,

2254
02:05:50.079 --> 02:05:55.600
<v Speaker 2>it is called burweed and it does have the kind

2255
02:05:55.600 --> 02:05:57.960
<v Speaker 2>of stickers and thorns in it. But there's also another

2256
02:05:58.000 --> 02:06:00.600
<v Speaker 2>one that is a nettle, and that that's the one

2257
02:06:00.640 --> 02:06:03.840
<v Speaker 2>that you're I think you're more likely talking about. Both

2258
02:06:03.920 --> 02:06:05.960
<v Speaker 2>of them are broad leaf weeds. Both of them are

2259
02:06:06.000 --> 02:06:09.319
<v Speaker 2>warm seasoned growers. They'll continue on here for a while.

2260
02:06:09.479 --> 02:06:12.680
<v Speaker 2>You need to spray them with a product for broad

2261
02:06:12.760 --> 02:06:15.800
<v Speaker 2>leaf post emergent weed control action. You can go out

2262
02:06:15.840 --> 02:06:18.960
<v Speaker 2>there and you know you're in the Kingwood areas. I

2263
02:06:18.960 --> 02:06:21.119
<v Speaker 2>mean you can go buy you know, Warren Southern Gardens

2264
02:06:21.159 --> 02:06:24.199
<v Speaker 2>for example, and grab you something like that. You're also

2265
02:06:24.199 --> 02:06:25.920
<v Speaker 2>going to find them at your ACE hardware stores and

2266
02:06:25.960 --> 02:06:28.119
<v Speaker 2>you got some good ones out there. I just say,

2267
02:06:28.159 --> 02:06:31.359
<v Speaker 2>I need a broad leaf post emergent weed control product,

2268
02:06:31.439 --> 02:06:33.800
<v Speaker 2>and what you're going to do is mix it according

2269
02:06:33.800 --> 02:06:37.159
<v Speaker 2>to the label and just spot spray wherever you see

2270
02:06:37.199 --> 02:06:40.960
<v Speaker 2>the weeds. Wherever you see the weeds. So I would

2271
02:06:41.359 --> 02:06:43.600
<v Speaker 2>I would get that done soon because as the weather

2272
02:06:43.640 --> 02:06:46.920
<v Speaker 2>heats up, the products that kill those weeds, they can

2273
02:06:47.000 --> 02:06:50.279
<v Speaker 2>be damaging or weakening to your Saint Augustine. So do

2274
02:06:50.359 --> 02:06:52.560
<v Speaker 2>it early in the morning and do it very soon.

2275
02:06:53.960 --> 02:06:56.920
<v Speaker 26>Okay, I wasn't sure that that was a broad leaf

2276
02:06:57.039 --> 02:06:58.680
<v Speaker 26>that was that was what was thrown.

2277
02:06:58.800 --> 02:07:02.880
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, yeah, broad leaf is a type. It's not a description.

2278
02:07:03.000 --> 02:07:05.760
<v Speaker 2>It doesn't have broad leaves. It's got small leaves. But yeah,

2279
02:07:06.000 --> 02:07:08.239
<v Speaker 2>I got it all right. Hey, thanks man, good luck,

2280
02:07:09.239 --> 02:07:12.680
<v Speaker 2>you take care. Nature's way resources is the place where

2281
02:07:12.720 --> 02:07:16.239
<v Speaker 2>you go up toward Conro. They're on Interstate forty five

2282
02:07:16.279 --> 02:07:19.960
<v Speaker 2>where fourteen eighty eight comes in from Magnolia into Interstate

2283
02:07:19.960 --> 02:07:21.720
<v Speaker 2>forty five. But you don't go to Magnoa. You don't

2284
02:07:21.720 --> 02:07:24.680
<v Speaker 2>turn left, you go right across the railroad tracks and

2285
02:07:24.800 --> 02:07:29.560
<v Speaker 2>right there's Nature's Way Resources the website Nature'sway Resources dot Com.

2286
02:07:29.640 --> 02:07:32.239

2290
02:07:41.039 --> 02:07:43.520
<v Speaker 2>say you junk. They you know you don't think you're

2291
02:07:43.520 --> 02:07:46.560
<v Speaker 2>buying a fine textured mix and end up with something

2292
02:07:46.600 --> 02:07:49.000
<v Speaker 2>with wood chunks in it that was rushed through just

2293
02:07:49.039 --> 02:07:51.600
<v Speaker 2>long enough to turn everything black, so you think it's compost.

2294

<v Speaker 2>And when it's not, Nature's Way does it right. Rose soil,

2301
02:08:17.920 --> 02:08:22.039
<v Speaker 2>I was talking earlier about ACE Hardware stores, visiting with

2302
02:08:22.159 --> 02:08:25.159
<v Speaker 2>an ACE Hardware owner over in Langham Creek, talking with

2303
02:08:25.239 --> 02:08:29.359
<v Speaker 2>Rick a while back about some barbecue pits, and they

2304
02:08:29.439 --> 02:08:32.560
<v Speaker 2>just have so many quality brands of barbecue pits. I mean,

2305
02:08:32.800 --> 02:08:34.720
<v Speaker 2>you know, you can do Webers, you can do the

2306

2307
02:08:37.119 --> 02:08:39.079
<v Speaker 2>Green Egg, you know. I mean, each of these has

2308
02:08:39.119 --> 02:08:42.960
<v Speaker 2>its own cult following, they really do, and then they

2309
02:08:42.960 --> 02:08:44.800
<v Speaker 2>have all the accessories you need to go with them.

2310
02:08:45.199 --> 02:08:47.720

2332
02:09:56.520 --> 02:10:00.279
<v Speaker 2>got busy that hour. I didn't really go into some

2333
02:10:00.319 --> 02:10:02.319
<v Speaker 2>of the details that I wanted to go into about

2334
02:10:02.359 --> 02:10:03.960
<v Speaker 2>things to do in the yard. But I'll get to

2336
02:10:07.359 --> 02:10:09.760

2337
02:10:09.920 --> 02:10:13.359

2338
02:10:13.479 --> 02:10:17.279
<v Speaker 2>arrivals that they've had. They have got so many cool plants,

2339
02:10:17.319 --> 02:10:20.560
<v Speaker 2>of course, lots of new native plants. That's what they specialize,

2340
02:10:21.039 --> 02:10:24.199
<v Speaker 2>specialize in more natives than anybody in the region. But

2341
02:10:24.319 --> 02:10:28.159
<v Speaker 2>even non natives. You know things like mandavilla. What a gorgeous, hot,

2342
02:10:28.199 --> 02:10:31.760
<v Speaker 2>pink red flower for summertime. It's a vine, It climbs

2343
02:10:32.560 --> 02:10:35.479
<v Speaker 2>and it just the hotter it gets the more. Mandevilla

2344
02:10:35.720 --> 02:10:37.720
<v Speaker 2>is happy long as you give it water. Of course,

2345
02:10:38.039 --> 02:10:41.600
<v Speaker 2>I couldn't survive outside without water. The bougainvilleas there are

2346
02:10:41.640 --> 02:10:45.279
<v Speaker 2>stunning the succulents or stunning the spring bloomers like you

2347
02:10:45.319 --> 02:10:47.880
<v Speaker 2>want to. If you want to do a native landscape,

2348
02:10:48.119 --> 02:10:50.439
<v Speaker 2>go there, because you're going to say I want a

2349
02:10:50.479 --> 02:10:52.359
<v Speaker 2>tree that booms in spring, and they're going to say

2350
02:10:52.359 --> 02:10:54.479
<v Speaker 2>something like Mexican buckeye. You're going to say, I want

2351
02:10:54.520 --> 02:10:57.079
<v Speaker 2>something that grows well in the shade, or I want

2352
02:10:57.119 --> 02:11:01.199
<v Speaker 2>something that attracts hummingbirds, or something that attracts butterfly. Buchanans

<v Speaker 2>us to take a little break. Don't forget today. I'll

<v Speaker 2>be at Cenamultch from one to three pm. One to

2366
02:11:49.640 --> 02:11:52.720
<v Speaker 2>three pm at Siena Mulch. Come out and see me.

2367
02:11:52.720 --> 02:11:56.079
<v Speaker 2>I'm gonna be giving away products from nitrophos, products from

2368
02:11:56.439 --> 02:12:02.319
<v Speaker 2>Nelson product excuse me not nuts in this Nelson from Medina,

2369
02:12:02.760 --> 02:12:05.880
<v Speaker 2>and from Microlife Nelson Medina Microlife. At this one we'll

2370
02:12:05.880 --> 02:12:07.960
<v Speaker 2>be given away a lot of cool stuff and the

2371
02:12:08.039 --> 02:12:11.279
<v Speaker 2>three sixty tree stabilizers that is the one of the

2372
02:12:11.279 --> 02:12:14.640
<v Speaker 2>coolest new gardening inventions in the last ten years. It

2373
02:12:14.760 --> 02:12:18.399
<v Speaker 2>really really works well for stabilizing a tree, whether it's

2374
02:12:18.399 --> 02:12:21.439
<v Speaker 2>a big old single trunk tree or a single truck

2375
02:12:21.479 --> 02:12:23.640
<v Speaker 2>tree you're planning, or whether like it's a multi stem

2376
02:12:23.640 --> 02:12:26.319
<v Speaker 2>crape martle works good for those two because when those

2377
02:12:26.439 --> 02:12:28.359
<v Speaker 2>leaves come out and the wind blows, it's going to

2378
02:12:28.439 --> 02:12:30.159
<v Speaker 2>move that plan around and you need to give it

2379
02:12:30.159 --> 02:12:33.560
<v Speaker 2>a little bit of support, help you have good success.

2380
02:12:33.640 --> 02:12:35.000
<v Speaker 2>The way I like to put it is you want

2381
02:12:35.039 --> 02:12:36.760
<v Speaker 2>to be able to hang a hammock in that as

2382
02:12:36.800 --> 02:12:40.359
<v Speaker 2>soon as possible, So get you a three sixty tree stabilizer.

2383
02:12:40.359 --> 02:12:42.760
<v Speaker 2>I'll give you one if you show up at Siena

2384

<v Speaker 2>Maultch today between one and three pm and say the

2385
02:12:46.960 --> 02:12:51.640
<v Speaker 2>magic words brown stuff before green stuff. All right, brown

2386
02:12:51.680 --> 02:12:55.560
<v Speaker 2>stuff before green stuff. We're going to get a little

2387
02:12:55.640 --> 02:12:58.279
<v Speaker 2>music here in just a bit and go to the breaks.

2388
02:12:59.239 --> 02:13:01.279
<v Speaker 2>If you have a gardening question and would like to

2389
02:13:01.279 --> 02:13:03.279

<v Speaker 2>The brown stuff before the green stuff. Everything you do

2425
02:15:26.399 --> 02:15:29.680
<v Speaker 2>to create the foundation that works, and I mean things

2426
02:15:29.720 --> 02:15:32.399
<v Speaker 2>like quality composts and quality bed mixes. You know, they

2433
02:15:53.359 --> 02:15:55.680
<v Speaker 2>to have success. Or you can bring a plant home

2434
02:15:55.720 --> 02:15:59.239
<v Speaker 2>and PLoP it into an unprepared plot and then calmulator

2435
02:15:59.239 --> 02:16:01.159
<v Speaker 2>when it's dying, because it will be it won't be

2436
02:16:01.359 --> 02:16:04.279
<v Speaker 2>thriving if you don't prepare the soil. That's so important.

2437
02:16:04.720 --> 02:16:07.399
<v Speaker 2>Sanimals dot Com. Come on out and see me and

2438
02:16:07.439 --> 02:16:10.319
<v Speaker 2>bring an empty vehicle. By the way, you're going to

2439
02:16:10.359 --> 02:16:14.479
<v Speaker 2>want to bring some stuff home. I was talking about

2440
02:16:14.800 --> 02:16:17.399
<v Speaker 2>some tips for the spring earlier and I didn't get

2441
02:16:17.399 --> 02:16:19.239
<v Speaker 2>a chance to get around to those, so I just

2442
02:16:19.239 --> 02:16:22.319
<v Speaker 2>wanted to say that for lawns, for your lawns. Your

2443
02:16:22.399 --> 02:16:29.039
<v Speaker 2>lawns haven't been technically dormant. They have been asleep on

2444
02:16:29.239 --> 02:16:34.319
<v Speaker 2>hold if you will, Okay, So they're basically each day

2445
02:16:34.319 --> 02:16:36.719
<v Speaker 2>of the year, even in the cool season, those roots

2446
02:16:37.639 --> 02:16:41.159
<v Speaker 2>have access to nutrients and moisture. And as the soil

2447
02:16:41.280 --> 02:16:43.879
<v Speaker 2>is moderate, which it is here in our southern climate,

2448
02:16:44.399 --> 02:16:48.639
<v Speaker 2>they're still active. But it's the temperature that wakes them up.

2449
02:16:48.760 --> 02:16:51.719
<v Speaker 2>And the temperature has woken your lawn up, and now's

2450
02:16:51.760 --> 02:16:56.200
<v Speaker 2>the time because the warm season weeds know the same thing.

2451
02:16:56.239 --> 02:16:59.520
<v Speaker 2>They're taken off and they're growing now too, and now's

2452
02:16:59.520 --> 02:17:02.000
<v Speaker 2>the time to get out there and get active. When

2453
02:17:02.000 --> 02:17:03.600
<v Speaker 2>you have weed problems, you got to deal with them.

2454
02:17:03.840 --> 02:17:05.920
<v Speaker 2>But the goal is to build a healthy lawn, a

2455
02:17:06.000 --> 02:17:11.040
<v Speaker 2>dense lawn. And it's not rocket science at all. It's

2456
02:17:11.200 --> 02:17:14.239
<v Speaker 2>you you get adequate moisture in the ground. You bring

2457
02:17:14.280 --> 02:17:17.559
<v Speaker 2>the temperatures up to get our southern long grasses at

2458
02:17:17.639 --> 02:17:22.440
<v Speaker 2>night that would be Saint Augustine and Zoysia and bermuda grass,

2459
02:17:22.479 --> 02:17:25.879
<v Speaker 2>get them happy and growing, and then you provide the nutrients.

2460
02:17:26.079 --> 02:17:29.879
<v Speaker 2>But the secret sauce is regular mowing. It really is.

2461
02:17:30.000 --> 02:17:32.840
<v Speaker 2>And first time, a turf specialist told me that a

2462
02:17:32.920 --> 02:17:35.239
<v Speaker 2>turf researcher. He said, yep, mowing is the single most

2463
02:17:35.280 --> 02:17:38.000
<v Speaker 2>important thing you do to your lawn. And I was thinking, okay,

2464
02:17:38.000 --> 02:17:42.120
<v Speaker 2>come on, man, I mean water, sunlight, you know, fertilizers

2465
02:17:42.159 --> 02:17:45.040
<v Speaker 2>and all that. Yeah, those are all important. But the

2466
02:17:45.120 --> 02:17:47.920
<v Speaker 2>more often you mow, the denser the lawn gets. And

2467
02:17:48.120 --> 02:17:52.079
<v Speaker 2>a sharp mower doesn't leave all those jagged tips that

2468
02:17:52.200 --> 02:17:55.360
<v Speaker 2>turn tan and make the whole lawn look pixelated with brown.

2469
02:17:56.600 --> 02:17:59.520
<v Speaker 2>A sharp mower is important, and regular mowing, and get

2470
02:17:59.600 --> 02:18:01.920
<v Speaker 2>right on, get on it right away, and get that done.

2471
02:18:02.040 --> 02:18:06.600
<v Speaker 2>Return the clippings. That's a tip Number two is grass

2472
02:18:06.600 --> 02:18:09.959
<v Speaker 2>cuppings are plant food. It's what the plant took up

2473
02:18:10.120 --> 02:18:12.319
<v Speaker 2>to make that grass blade. And so now when you

2474
02:18:12.360 --> 02:18:15.879
<v Speaker 2>clip it off, you got nitrogen, phosphorus, potassium and all

2475
02:18:15.920 --> 02:18:18.559
<v Speaker 2>the nutrients down to the micros. Put it back in

2476
02:18:18.600 --> 02:18:20.879
<v Speaker 2>the soil. Let it decompose and it will. It won't

2477
02:18:20.879 --> 02:18:23.760
<v Speaker 2>make that Clippings are not the primary reason we have thatch.

2478
02:18:23.879 --> 02:18:27.079
<v Speaker 2>The primary reason we have thatch is overfertilizing and create

2479
02:18:27.120 --> 02:18:29.319
<v Speaker 2>a lot of grass runners up on top of the ground.

2480
02:18:29.639 --> 02:18:31.879
<v Speaker 2>That's that's the main cause of that. All right, Well,

2481
02:18:31.879 --> 02:18:33.799
<v Speaker 2>there was a tip for you. We're going to go

2482
02:18:33.879 --> 02:18:36.600
<v Speaker 2>now out to the Champions area and talk to Don.

2483
02:18:36.920 --> 02:18:38.760
<v Speaker 2>Hey Don, welcome to Gardenline.

2484
02:18:39.120 --> 02:18:41.959
<v Speaker 10>Hey Skip, Thank you very much, appreciate you taking the call.

2485
02:18:43.280 --> 02:18:46.840
<v Speaker 10>I had pretty severe damage done to my backyard. I

2486
02:18:46.920 --> 02:18:51.360
<v Speaker 10>have a very large backyard and it was during the

2487
02:18:51.399 --> 02:18:55.040
<v Speaker 10>storm for Barrel and I three huge pine trees came

2488
02:18:55.079 --> 02:19:00.520
<v Speaker 10>down pretty well, recavage problems with my backyard, ravage of

2489
02:19:00.559 --> 02:19:04.319
<v Speaker 10>the whole thing. I'm looking for landscapers and I think

2490
02:19:04.399 --> 02:19:08.000
<v Speaker 10>I've meant you mentioned pierce Scapes. Uh, but I'll just

2491
02:19:08.239 --> 02:19:10.680
<v Speaker 10>wonder what your recommendation might be that from people do

2492
02:19:10.959 --> 02:19:12.399
<v Speaker 10>who do that sort of service.

2493
02:19:14.319 --> 02:19:17.520
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, Piercescape Services for sure your area, You're not too

2494
02:19:17.559 --> 02:19:20.360
<v Speaker 2>far away from them up there. And uh, they just

2495
02:19:20.440 --> 02:19:23.399
<v Speaker 2>do quality work. I mean they'll they'll do the maintenance,

2496
02:19:23.440 --> 02:19:25.440
<v Speaker 2>like quarterly maintenance for you if you want them to

2497
02:19:25.479 --> 02:19:28.639
<v Speaker 2>come out every quarter and spruce up the beds, change

2498
02:19:28.639 --> 02:19:31.319
<v Speaker 2>out the color of plants, you know, get rid of weeds,

2499
02:19:31.319 --> 02:19:33.959
<v Speaker 2>put down some extra molts, and check the irrigation all that,

2500
02:19:34.639 --> 02:19:37.239
<v Speaker 2>or they'll come out into whatever degree you want it.

2501
02:19:37.559 --> 02:19:40.440
<v Speaker 2>Create a little taj mahall set up there around the place.

2502
02:19:40.479 --> 02:19:42.120
<v Speaker 2>I mean they can, they can go all the way.

2503
02:19:42.239 --> 02:19:45.120
<v Speaker 2>It's it's what you whatever you need done.

2504
02:19:45.520 --> 02:19:47.879
<v Speaker 10>Yeah, okay, so you would highly recommend them.

2505
02:19:47.920 --> 02:19:48.840
<v Speaker 5>I suppose.

2506
02:19:50.280 --> 02:19:52.600
<v Speaker 2>Yes, And and if if, if you will go to

2507
02:19:52.840 --> 02:19:56.760
<v Speaker 2>Piercescapes dot com. And I wish you would look at

2508
02:19:56.760 --> 02:19:59.399
<v Speaker 2>what they do. And that's that's the proof is in

2509
02:19:59.440 --> 02:20:01.600
<v Speaker 2>the pudding. When you see the work that they do.

2510
02:20:02.120 --> 02:20:04.639
<v Speaker 2>That's where it's like, you know, yeah, they I think

2511
02:20:04.680 --> 02:20:05.559
<v Speaker 2>they know what they're doing.

2512
02:20:06.280 --> 02:20:09.239
<v Speaker 10>Yeah, well, appreciate that's what I need. And thank you

2513
02:20:09.360 --> 02:20:09.760
<v Speaker 10>very much.

2514
02:20:10.079 --> 02:20:13.920
<v Speaker 2>Have a good day, all right, thank you for the call.

2515
02:20:14.239 --> 02:20:20.360
<v Speaker 2>I appreciate that very much. Three sixty tree stabilizers hold

2516
02:20:20.440 --> 02:20:24.280
<v Speaker 2>your tree steady so that it can move a little

2517
02:20:24.280 --> 02:20:26.319
<v Speaker 2>in the wind. By the way, movement is important. You

2518
02:20:26.360 --> 02:20:30.079
<v Speaker 2>don't want to like just strap into a post, but

2519
02:20:30.479 --> 02:20:34.239
<v Speaker 2>they allow that movement. But they're strong and you can

2520
02:20:34.280 --> 02:20:36.680
<v Speaker 2>put one on a tree and generally that's enough. Sometimes

2521
02:20:36.760 --> 02:20:39.120
<v Speaker 2>the larger tree, bigger canopy. You may do one north

2522
02:20:39.120 --> 02:20:40.920
<v Speaker 2>south and one east west, so you're kind of holding

2523
02:20:40.959 --> 02:20:43.479
<v Speaker 2>it from two directions. But they're cool. If you'll come

2524
02:20:43.520 --> 02:20:46.360
<v Speaker 2>out to Cienamals today, I'll show you some. If you

2525
02:20:46.440 --> 02:20:49.280
<v Speaker 2>say the magic words, what do I say they were, Oh,

2526
02:20:49.319 --> 02:20:52.840
<v Speaker 2>Brussa for green stuff. I'll give you one too. They're

2527
02:20:52.840 --> 02:20:54.079
<v Speaker 2>found in a lot of places.

2528
02:20:54.120 --> 02:20:54.319
<v Speaker 6>You know.

2529
02:20:54.319 --> 02:20:56.239
<v Speaker 2>They have them at Cianamal you'll find them at Plants

2530
02:20:56.280 --> 02:20:58.440
<v Speaker 2>for All Seasons and Arborgate. You're gonna find them at

2531
02:20:58.479 --> 02:21:01.760
<v Speaker 2>JEG Hidden Gardens, Done and Out and RCW up on

2532
02:21:01.840 --> 02:21:05.959
<v Speaker 2>Tomball Parkway and in Buchanus Needed Plants in the Heights

2533
02:21:05.959 --> 02:21:09.360
<v Speaker 2>area also carries the three sixty tree Stabilizer. I'm gonna

2534
02:21:09.360 --> 02:21:16.799
<v Speaker 2>take a little break and I'll be right back. Hey,

2535
02:21:16.920 --> 02:21:22.479
<v Speaker 2>welcome back. If GOODA have background garden line, listen. Microlife

2536
02:21:23.159 --> 02:21:28.120
<v Speaker 2>products include liquid products, and I should be talking about

2537
02:21:28.120 --> 02:21:30.319
<v Speaker 2>those more. They've got a couple of them that I

2538
02:21:30.360 --> 02:21:32.719
<v Speaker 2>just want to tell you about right now. One of

2539
02:21:32.760 --> 02:21:37.079
<v Speaker 2>them is micro grow liquid AF. Micro Grow liquid AF

2540
02:21:37.120 --> 02:21:40.360
<v Speaker 2>basically it's putting natural biology in the soil to work

2541
02:21:40.399 --> 02:21:43.159
<v Speaker 2>for you. It contains like, oh, I don't know, probably

2542
02:21:43.200 --> 02:21:49.920
<v Speaker 2>eight different specialized beneficial soul microbes in the streptomices, the trichoderma,

2543
02:21:50.000 --> 02:21:54.040
<v Speaker 2>and then several basillas that are just very helpful for plants.

2544
02:21:54.040 --> 02:21:57.120
<v Speaker 2>Some of them are even sold as organic pest and

2545
02:21:57.159 --> 02:22:01.319
<v Speaker 2>disease or disease control products. That's micro Grow liquid A

2546
02:22:01.360 --> 02:22:03.239
<v Speaker 2>if you can do is a folier spray too, but

2547
02:22:03.319 --> 02:22:07.000
<v Speaker 2>you can. Primarily we do it for putting liquid product

2548
02:22:07.159 --> 02:22:12.120
<v Speaker 2>microbes in the soil eight extremely dominating beneficial microbes. Number

2549
02:22:12.120 --> 02:22:15.639
<v Speaker 2>two soil and plant energy. That particular product is a

2550
02:22:15.639 --> 02:22:19.600
<v Speaker 2>combination of humic acid and molasses. Now that those two

2551
02:22:19.639 --> 02:22:24.200
<v Speaker 2>products right there simulate my biological activity, especially the beneficial

2552
02:22:24.239 --> 02:22:27.319
<v Speaker 2>microbes like we were talking about well ago, but also

2553
02:22:27.840 --> 02:22:32.440
<v Speaker 2>they provide better improvement for soil structure because the humic

2554
02:22:32.520 --> 02:22:35.200
<v Speaker 2>acid has its own effects in the soil. It has

2555
02:22:35.239 --> 02:22:37.799
<v Speaker 2>over sixty three different minerals in it. It's a great

2556
02:22:37.840 --> 02:22:41.639
<v Speaker 2>for stimulating root growth microlife. Soil and plant energy and

2557
02:22:41.680 --> 02:22:46.639
<v Speaker 2>micro grow liquid AF two of the many quality liquid

2558
02:22:46.680 --> 02:22:49.280
<v Speaker 2>products from Microlife. By the way, I'm going to be

2559
02:22:49.280 --> 02:22:52.920
<v Speaker 2>giving some of those microlife products away today at CNMLCH

2560
02:22:52.959 --> 02:22:55.920
<v Speaker 2>between one and three. We're going to go now out

2561
02:22:55.959 --> 02:23:00.959
<v Speaker 2>to Bob in West Houston. Hey, Bob, welcome to guard Line.

2562
02:23:02.360 --> 02:23:03.239
<v Speaker 2>How are you today?

2563
02:23:03.319 --> 02:23:06.040
<v Speaker 11>It's wet question.

2564
02:23:07.040 --> 02:23:11.840
<v Speaker 2>It's because it's wet, is it. I had one of

2565
02:23:11.879 --> 02:23:16.920
<v Speaker 2>our little experts in our neighborhood say, well, you shouldn't

2566
02:23:16.959 --> 02:23:20.239
<v Speaker 2>really be planning today because it's this soil is just

2567
02:23:20.239 --> 02:23:25.680
<v Speaker 2>too wet. True false. Well, if the soil is soggy,

2568
02:23:25.920 --> 02:23:30.399
<v Speaker 2>and especially if it's a clay, then messing with a

2569
02:23:30.440 --> 02:23:34.479
<v Speaker 2>clay soil when it's wet destroys the structure. Destroys the structure.

2570
02:23:34.600 --> 02:23:37.079
<v Speaker 2>So you don't want to do that. If you've got

2571
02:23:37.120 --> 02:23:39.200
<v Speaker 2>a decent soil a lot of composts in it, like

2572
02:23:39.280 --> 02:23:41.879
<v Speaker 2>go out and take a take a spading fork or

2573
02:23:41.959 --> 02:23:44.319
<v Speaker 2>you know, a hand trowel and just turn over some soil.

2574
02:23:44.840 --> 02:23:48.200
<v Speaker 2>And if you're creating like a slick sided hole by

2575
02:23:48.319 --> 02:23:51.319
<v Speaker 2>pushing that through the wet clay, well then then wait,

2576
02:23:51.440 --> 02:23:53.520
<v Speaker 2>let it dry a little bit. But if it's pretty

2577
02:23:53.559 --> 02:23:56.440
<v Speaker 2>loose and you're you know, you can then go ahead

2578
02:23:56.479 --> 02:24:00.159
<v Speaker 2>and do your planting that it'll be all right. It's

2579
02:24:00.239 --> 02:24:04.239
<v Speaker 2>pretty much organic matter content. Add some microlife to it.

2580
02:24:04.719 --> 02:24:08.799
<v Speaker 2>Oh yeah, well yeah, as a fertilizer, that would be excellent.

2581
02:24:09.399 --> 02:24:13.399
<v Speaker 2>Adding composts as well to it helps build that structure.

2582
02:24:13.879 --> 02:24:16.399
<v Speaker 2>We got a whole bunch of that. The other thing

2583
02:24:16.520 --> 02:24:25.200
<v Speaker 2>is centipede grass. What's your thought on that? Okay, centipede

2584
02:24:25.520 --> 02:24:29.120
<v Speaker 2>is done in East Texas. Some it likes acid soils.

2585
02:24:29.200 --> 02:24:33.280
<v Speaker 2>It likes more on the acidic side. It looks a

2586
02:24:33.319 --> 02:24:36.040
<v Speaker 2>lot like a dwarf type of Saint Augustine. If you

2587
02:24:36.120 --> 02:24:39.360
<v Speaker 2>shrunk down Saint Augustine grass blades, that's kind of what

2588
02:24:39.399 --> 02:24:42.120
<v Speaker 2>centipede looks like. But it's it's more of a shartruse

2589
02:24:42.159 --> 02:24:45.000
<v Speaker 2>screen than an emerald green, and if you push it

2590
02:24:45.000 --> 02:24:48.840
<v Speaker 2>with fertilizer, it is very unhappy. The other thing that's

2591
02:24:48.840 --> 02:24:52.399
<v Speaker 2>a negative to centipede is that in the winter time,

2592
02:24:52.600 --> 02:24:57.120
<v Speaker 2>I mean, it turns straw tan uh and and you know,

2593
02:24:57.200 --> 02:24:59.559
<v Speaker 2>even with Saint Augustine you may have some green through

2594
02:24:59.559 --> 02:25:02.680
<v Speaker 2>the winter. Not with centipede, it's gonna turn tnd. But

2595
02:25:02.879 --> 02:25:05.159
<v Speaker 2>can you do it here? Yeah? Is it done here?

2596
02:25:05.360 --> 02:25:05.440
<v Speaker 11>Like?

2597
02:25:05.639 --> 02:25:07.840
<v Speaker 2>Not much. You may see it a little further north

2598
02:25:07.879 --> 02:25:12.079
<v Speaker 2>in East Texas and some sandy soils and some other things,

2599
02:25:12.120 --> 02:25:15.719
<v Speaker 2>but you know, it's legit. It's just not probably the

2600
02:25:15.719 --> 02:25:19.079
<v Speaker 2>best choice. So you need a sandy soil, keep an

2601
02:25:19.120 --> 02:25:24.639
<v Speaker 2>acid well, yeah, you don't really need sandy, but that's

2602
02:25:24.639 --> 02:25:27.000
<v Speaker 2>where you often see it, and some of the piny

2603
02:25:27.000 --> 02:25:30.079
<v Speaker 2>wood soils up there. But yeah, that would be it. Hey,

2604
02:25:30.200 --> 02:25:31.760
<v Speaker 2>let me, I'm gonna have to run. But if you

2605
02:25:31.840 --> 02:25:37.680
<v Speaker 2>go to Aggie Turf Aggie Turf website, They have a

2606
02:25:37.719 --> 02:25:41.120
<v Speaker 2>publication on each type of grass, including one on centipede,

2607
02:25:41.120 --> 02:25:42.799
<v Speaker 2>and they'll tell you way more than I can do

2608
02:25:42.840 --> 02:25:45.239
<v Speaker 2>it on the air right here. But Bob, thank you.

2609
02:25:45.520 --> 02:25:50.360
<v Speaker 2>Appreciate the car very much. Appreciate that. Appreciate that a lot.

2610
02:25:50.879 --> 02:25:54.440
<v Speaker 2>Sorry to have to run on that. Nitrofis Super Turf

2615
02:26:08.159 --> 02:26:11.399
<v Speaker 2>and a bazillion other kinds of places. They got it

2616
02:26:11.559 --> 02:26:14.000
<v Speaker 2>RCW Nursery on I forty five North. You go on

2617
02:26:14.120 --> 02:26:17.479
<v Speaker 2>to Alvin Stanton's shopping center on North Taylor. You're going

2618
02:26:17.559 --> 02:26:19.959
<v Speaker 2>to find it. M and D Beamer there in Sagemont,

2619
02:26:20.000 --> 02:26:21.879
<v Speaker 2>as well as the one in clear Lake M and

2620
02:26:21.920 --> 02:26:24.760
<v Speaker 2>D and clear Lake on Bay Area nine five. Super

2621
02:26:24.760 --> 02:26:29.719
<v Speaker 2>Turf silver bag four months of good quality slow fertilizing

2622
02:26:29.799 --> 02:26:33.000
<v Speaker 2>so you don't get into those mowing cycles where you're

2623
02:26:33.040 --> 02:26:35.159
<v Speaker 2>trying to keep up with the grass because you overdid

2624
02:26:35.200 --> 02:26:38.440
<v Speaker 2>the nitrogen. It releases it slowly, so you can't do that.

2625
02:26:38.680 --> 02:26:42.120
<v Speaker 2>Makes it easy. We're going to go now to Sharon

2626
02:26:43.040 --> 02:26:48.159
<v Speaker 2>out in Jersey Village. Hey, Sharon, sorry, I learned that

2627
02:26:48.239 --> 02:26:49.440
<v Speaker 2>the first time we talked.

2628
02:26:50.200 --> 02:26:51.920
<v Speaker 17>It was made up.

2629
02:26:52.079 --> 02:26:55.680
<v Speaker 8>So I sent you some pictures, but I also sent

2630
02:26:55.760 --> 02:26:57.840
<v Speaker 8>one of a vine that I want to know how

2631
02:26:57.840 --> 02:26:59.879
<v Speaker 8>to get rid of that snuck through a fence and

2632
02:27:00.040 --> 02:27:01.520
<v Speaker 8>my neighbor for my neighbor.

2633
02:27:02.440 --> 02:27:06.479
<v Speaker 2>Do your pictures have a B? Does your emails have ABC?

2634
02:27:06.799 --> 02:27:09.280
<v Speaker 8>And the email yes, yes, yeah, and I put it

2635
02:27:10.120 --> 02:27:14.440
<v Speaker 8>a gotcha. It's it's a different okay, all.

2636
02:27:14.399 --> 02:27:17.639
<v Speaker 2>Right, So the vine, you've got some sort of an

2637
02:27:17.680 --> 02:27:20.239
<v Speaker 2>ivy growing in there, and I can't quite make out

2638
02:27:20.280 --> 02:27:23.200
<v Speaker 2>exactly which one it was, but it doesn't matter. Uh,

2639
02:27:23.280 --> 02:27:27.719
<v Speaker 2>if you use a broad leaf post emergent weed control,

2640
02:27:27.879 --> 02:27:32.520
<v Speaker 2>it will kill that vine without hurting your loriopy. So

2641
02:27:33.159 --> 02:27:35.559
<v Speaker 2>a product like you would use for broadleaf weed control

2642
02:27:35.639 --> 02:27:38.879
<v Speaker 2>to spray would work on that. Another step if you

2643
02:27:38.959 --> 02:27:40.879
<v Speaker 2>want to go this route, is if you make my

2644
02:27:41.120 --> 02:27:44.159
<v Speaker 2>herbicide wiper, and it's on the website how to build

2645
02:27:44.200 --> 02:27:48.360
<v Speaker 2>skips weed wiper. It's really simple to build one. Then

2646
02:27:48.440 --> 02:27:50.760
<v Speaker 2>you just it has sponges on it and you just

2647
02:27:51.440 --> 02:27:54.639
<v Speaker 2>you it's a trigger pull like those ah gosh, those

2648
02:27:54.680 --> 02:27:56.600
<v Speaker 2>little three foot long gadget you used to get a

2649
02:27:56.680 --> 02:28:00.200
<v Speaker 2>jar offic shelf, you know those grabber tools. It's like that,

2650
02:28:00.479 --> 02:28:03.479
<v Speaker 2>but it's sponges on the grabber end, and you would

2651
02:28:03.520 --> 02:28:06.399
<v Speaker 2>just put the product on the sponge and just just

2652
02:28:06.520 --> 02:28:09.559
<v Speaker 2>squeeze those leaves here and there, and it'll trick. It'll

2653
02:28:10.360 --> 02:28:14.040
<v Speaker 2>transport pourt down into the roots and it will kill them.

2654
02:28:14.520 --> 02:28:16.040
<v Speaker 2>That that is an option for you.

2655
02:28:16.600 --> 02:28:19.840
<v Speaker 8>Then I sent hibiscus pictures also in a separate email

2656
02:28:19.840 --> 02:28:20.719
<v Speaker 8>because I realized.

2657
02:28:22.760 --> 02:28:25.440
<v Speaker 2>Okay, all right, let me. It takes me a while

2658
02:28:25.840 --> 02:28:29.879
<v Speaker 2>on these on these emails where the picture is embedded,

2659
02:28:30.000 --> 02:28:32.680
<v Speaker 2>I can't just open it up, and so I got

2660
02:28:32.719 --> 02:28:34.520
<v Speaker 2>to use my wide screen to see it. What was

2661
02:28:34.559 --> 02:28:36.920
<v Speaker 2>your question about the hibiscus, by the way, Well I

2662
02:28:36.959 --> 02:28:39.760
<v Speaker 2>had this was the things on the leaves.

2663
02:28:39.840 --> 02:28:40.680
<v Speaker 6>And I sent it.

2664
02:28:40.840 --> 02:28:44.520
<v Speaker 8>Okay, yeah, the poor hibiscus got abused this past year

2665
02:28:44.559 --> 02:28:45.280
<v Speaker 8>in winter.

2666
02:28:46.680 --> 02:28:50.920
<v Speaker 2>All right, So what I'm seeing on your hibiscus is aphids.

2667
02:28:50.959 --> 02:28:53.520
<v Speaker 2>It's a black aphid, and those little white things are

2668
02:28:53.559 --> 02:28:57.719
<v Speaker 2>the skins, the cast skins of the aphied. So I

2669
02:28:57.760 --> 02:29:01.479
<v Speaker 2>would get insecticidal soap and I would blast that plant

2670
02:29:01.559 --> 02:29:05.040
<v Speaker 2>from every angle, especially upward because most of the aphids

2671
02:29:05.040 --> 02:29:08.000
<v Speaker 2>are under the leaf. Just give it a good bath,

2672
02:29:08.040 --> 02:29:10.280
<v Speaker 2>and so don't do it right in the middle of

2673
02:29:10.280 --> 02:29:12.520
<v Speaker 2>the hot sunny day. It's in a container, so you

2674
02:29:12.520 --> 02:29:15.040
<v Speaker 2>can move it to the shade and blast it was

2675
02:29:15.079 --> 02:29:17.479
<v Speaker 2>soap really good and follow the label, don't mix it

2676
02:29:17.520 --> 02:29:20.760
<v Speaker 2>too strong, and then I'd repeat that process again in

2677
02:29:20.840 --> 02:29:23.680
<v Speaker 2>about ten days, and I think that'll knock all that

2678
02:29:23.760 --> 02:29:24.319
<v Speaker 2>out for you.

2679
02:29:24.440 --> 02:29:28.600
<v Speaker 8>Okay, okay, all right, thank you, okay, thank you, all right, all.

2680
02:29:28.559 --> 02:29:31.120
<v Speaker 2>Right, thanks for sending me those pictures. You bet. Yeah,

2681
02:29:31.120 --> 02:29:36.520
<v Speaker 2>and sexicidal soap works very very well for salt small

2682
02:29:36.639 --> 02:29:41.920
<v Speaker 2>soft bodied insects like spider mites and aphids and well

2683
02:29:42.000 --> 02:29:44.719
<v Speaker 2>even things like you know, mealy bugs before they get

2684
02:29:44.719 --> 02:29:47.399
<v Speaker 2>all that protective coating. It does a decent job on

2685
02:29:47.479 --> 02:29:50.719
<v Speaker 2>those as well as whitefly pupa, but not the adults.

2686
02:29:51.280 --> 02:29:54.200
<v Speaker 2>All right, Well, there's that jungle end from nitro foss

2687
02:29:54.440 --> 02:29:56.399
<v Speaker 2>is a product that comes in both the outdoor form

2688
02:29:56.440 --> 02:29:58.559
<v Speaker 2>and the indoor form. I want to talk about the

2689
02:29:58.799 --> 02:30:02.799
<v Speaker 2>indoor form. That's jungle land water saving potting soil. Jungle

2690
02:30:02.879 --> 02:30:05.920
<v Speaker 2>land water saving potting soil. Now that one has the

2691
02:30:05.959 --> 02:30:08.319
<v Speaker 2>crystals in it, Now I know you don't forget to

2692
02:30:08.319 --> 02:30:11.200
<v Speaker 2>water your plants. I would never admit that I often

2693
02:30:11.280 --> 02:30:15.440
<v Speaker 2>water don't water my plants regularly enough, but some people do.

2694
02:30:15.600 --> 02:30:17.360
<v Speaker 2>So just train you and I, you know, asking for

2695
02:30:17.360 --> 02:30:21.120
<v Speaker 2>a friend. If your friend forgets to water their plants

2696
02:30:21.639 --> 02:30:23.600
<v Speaker 2>and they get a little on the dry side, those

2697
02:30:23.639 --> 02:30:27.360
<v Speaker 2>water saving crystals hold onto water better and even though

2698
02:30:27.399 --> 02:30:30.559
<v Speaker 2>the PD mix may dry out in the potting soil,

2699
02:30:31.399 --> 02:30:33.280
<v Speaker 2>he gives you a little more time to get in

2700
02:30:33.319 --> 02:30:36.399
<v Speaker 2>there and get them watered before they start trying to

2701
02:30:36.479 --> 02:30:41.520
<v Speaker 2>kill themselves because you are just horribly ignoring them. You know,

2702
02:30:41.559 --> 02:30:44.520
<v Speaker 2>plants have feelings to you, right anyway. Jungle Land water

2703
02:30:44.559 --> 02:30:48.440
<v Speaker 2>Saving Crystals it's a great product. It's made out of quality,

2704
02:30:48.639 --> 02:30:53.239
<v Speaker 2>decomposed organic materials and provides the ability to hold water

2705
02:30:53.360 --> 02:30:56.000
<v Speaker 2>but the ability to drain. Those two are important because

2706
02:30:56.040 --> 02:30:59.360
<v Speaker 2>we kill more house plants by overwatering than we do

2707
02:30:59.479 --> 02:31:02.360
<v Speaker 2>by under watering. They do not put up with that.

2708
02:31:02.799 --> 02:31:05.000
<v Speaker 2>So check out jungle Land. You're gonna find jungle land

2709
02:31:05.440 --> 02:31:09.920
<v Speaker 2>in and other nitrofost products in places all over town

2710
02:31:10.079 --> 02:31:12.920
<v Speaker 2>M and D and Rosenberg on Avenue I. They carry

2711
02:31:12.959 --> 02:31:15.840
<v Speaker 2>it out there. You can go to Katie Hardware on

2712
02:31:15.920 --> 02:31:18.280
<v Speaker 2>Penoak out in Katie. If you go up to the

2713
02:31:18.319 --> 02:31:21.799
<v Speaker 2>woodlands to Auspa on Kirkanal, they're going to find them

2714
02:31:22.079 --> 02:31:25.840
<v Speaker 2>there as well. You are listening to garden Line our

2715
02:31:25.879 --> 02:31:28.920
<v Speaker 2>phone number seven one three two one two k t

2716
02:31:29.200 --> 02:31:32.040
<v Speaker 2>r H. I think would we take the phone off

2717
02:31:32.079 --> 02:31:34.799
<v Speaker 2>the hook or something? I got awfully quiet there all

2718
02:31:34.840 --> 02:31:39.399
<v Speaker 2>of a sudden. So there you go. RCW Nursery is

2719
02:31:39.399 --> 02:31:41.559
<v Speaker 2>that garden center that I talk about all the time

2720
02:31:41.719 --> 02:31:45.319
<v Speaker 2>where Tambau Parkway comes into belt Waga Tamo Parkway belt Waita.

2721
02:31:46.520 --> 02:31:49.280
<v Speaker 2>RCW nurseres dot com is the website if you want

2722
02:31:49.319 --> 02:31:52.159
<v Speaker 2>to do that. I like to follow them on social media.

2723
02:31:52.280 --> 02:31:54.200
<v Speaker 2>You find out a lot of good stuff just by

2724
02:31:54.319 --> 02:31:57.440
<v Speaker 2>checking them out on their social media page. Right now,

2725
02:31:57.920 --> 02:32:02.120
<v Speaker 2>Roses roses, roses blue looming. Great time to pick out

2726
02:32:02.120 --> 02:32:06.079
<v Speaker 2>a rose. The redbud trees have been having ballooms on

2727
02:32:06.120 --> 02:32:09.079
<v Speaker 2>them for a while now they're boogin villias are gorgeous.

2728
02:32:09.280 --> 02:32:11.479
<v Speaker 2>They have vegetables and they have herbs, and they have

2729
02:32:11.600 --> 02:32:14.600
<v Speaker 2>flowering plants, lots of shrubs. You know, they grow their

2730
02:32:14.600 --> 02:32:18.639
<v Speaker 2>own trees up in Plantersville at Williamson Tree Farm up there.

2731
02:32:19.000 --> 02:32:21.840
<v Speaker 2>And so when you get a tree at RCW, you

2732
02:32:21.879 --> 02:32:24.280
<v Speaker 2>get a tree. Number one, that's a species that want

2733
02:32:24.280 --> 02:32:26.639
<v Speaker 2>to grow here. For sure. It's grown for here. They

2734
02:32:26.639 --> 02:32:29.520
<v Speaker 2>know what grows here. They grow that. Number two, you

2735
02:32:29.559 --> 02:32:32.319
<v Speaker 2>get a tree that's grown well. It grows right, it's

2736
02:32:32.360 --> 02:32:36.760
<v Speaker 2>anchored well in the pot. You know it's not well.

2737
02:32:36.920 --> 02:32:39.600
<v Speaker 2>It's just the way some people grow trees. They don't

2738
02:32:39.600 --> 02:32:41.639
<v Speaker 2>take care of them right, and the tree is not

2739
02:32:41.719 --> 02:32:43.520
<v Speaker 2>in good shape when you get it in terms of

2740
02:32:43.840 --> 02:32:47.200
<v Speaker 2>strength and anchorage. At RCW, it is, by the way,

2741
02:32:47.200 --> 02:32:49.000
<v Speaker 2>when you're there, you can grab one of those three

2742
02:32:49.079 --> 02:32:52.639
<v Speaker 2>sixty trees stabilizers to stabilize your tree. If it's a

2743
02:32:52.639 --> 02:32:55.239
<v Speaker 2>small tree, can plant it yourself. It's larger, you know,

2744
02:32:55.319 --> 02:32:58.799
<v Speaker 2>don't put your carpractors kids through college. Let RCW come

2745
02:32:58.799 --> 02:33:01.239
<v Speaker 2>out and plant it for you. And they'll do that.

2746
02:33:01.360 --> 02:33:03.360
<v Speaker 2>They'll come out and they'll get that tree in the ground,

2747
02:33:03.600 --> 02:33:05.520
<v Speaker 2>and if you want to do it yourself, they'll give

2748
02:33:05.559 --> 02:33:07.680
<v Speaker 2>you the advice and the products you need to have

2749
02:33:07.760 --> 02:33:18.319
<v Speaker 2>a good successful planting. I was dealing with a Vitex

2750
02:33:19.239 --> 02:33:23.319
<v Speaker 2>in my landscape last year, and Vitext. I would say,

2751
02:33:23.319 --> 02:33:25.040
<v Speaker 2>I can prune any kind of tree in the world

2752
02:33:25.159 --> 02:33:30.719
<v Speaker 2>except Vitex. Vtex just doesn't lend itself to making a tree.

2753
02:33:30.840 --> 02:33:33.319
<v Speaker 2>You can do it, and I'm actually doing it. But

2754
02:33:33.920 --> 02:33:36.600
<v Speaker 2>you know, you're trying to get a trunk and branches

2755
02:33:36.639 --> 02:33:39.040
<v Speaker 2>and stuff, and Vitex is going, naw, I'm gonna go

2756
02:33:39.079 --> 02:33:41.920
<v Speaker 2>over here. I'm gonna grow something over there. I'm and

2757
02:33:41.959 --> 02:33:44.319
<v Speaker 2>it's just this weird thing to try to grow. I

2758
02:33:44.360 --> 02:33:47.719
<v Speaker 2>love the plant. Beautiful blossoms all through the heat of summer,

2759
02:33:47.719 --> 02:33:50.760
<v Speaker 2>and a blue color. That combination is hard to find

2760
02:33:50.840 --> 02:33:52.680
<v Speaker 2>in summer. We don't have a lot of a lot

2761
02:33:52.799 --> 02:33:56.399
<v Speaker 2>of blue coloring. Love Vitext, but boy, pruning it. I

2762
02:33:56.440 --> 02:33:59.280
<v Speaker 2>finally got mine trimmed up to a single trunk. Oh,

2763
02:33:59.440 --> 02:34:03.040
<v Speaker 2>it's about seven feet high and then it spreads out, uh,

2764
02:34:03.280 --> 02:34:05.520
<v Speaker 2>and it's going to form a little bit of shade

2765
02:34:05.920 --> 02:34:07.760
<v Speaker 2>over an area where a car parks all the time

2766
02:34:07.879 --> 02:34:11.000
<v Speaker 2>that is very very sunny. So anyway, and the bees

2767
02:34:11.120 --> 02:34:13.479
<v Speaker 2>will love you. The pollinators in general will love you

2768
02:34:13.559 --> 02:34:17.000
<v Speaker 2>for that plant too. We're going to go now to

2769
02:34:17.040 --> 02:34:18.799
<v Speaker 2>make sure I got time to take a call. We

2770
02:34:18.879 --> 02:34:21.319
<v Speaker 2>were to the Woodlands and talk to Mike. Hey, Mike,

2771
02:34:21.559 --> 02:34:22.719
<v Speaker 2>welcome to garden Line.

2772
02:34:23.680 --> 02:34:28.799
<v Speaker 30>Hey, jep question. I put the Nelson's Whedon Theater on

2773
02:34:29.200 --> 02:34:33.840
<v Speaker 30>probably late February early March, and just pick some A's

2774
02:34:34.000 --> 02:34:36.680
<v Speaker 30>mite up. Is it is it time to put that

2775
02:34:36.840 --> 02:34:39.680
<v Speaker 30>on as well? And do I need to fertilize again

2776
02:34:39.840 --> 02:34:46.239
<v Speaker 30>with A mentioned that silver bag and all that, don't

2777
02:34:46.520 --> 02:34:46.879
<v Speaker 30>I don't know.

2778
02:34:49.920 --> 02:34:52.520
<v Speaker 2>No, Well, here's the deal. You put the weedonater down.

2779
02:34:52.719 --> 02:34:56.959
<v Speaker 2>I would wait about six weeks to eight weeks, probably

2780
02:34:56.959 --> 02:34:59.840
<v Speaker 2>more like eight weeks, and then go to your summer fertilizer.

2781
02:35:00.319 --> 02:35:02.280
<v Speaker 2>And if you want to stay with the Nelson, that

2782
02:35:02.360 --> 02:35:04.840
<v Speaker 2>would be a product called slow and Easy. I'll be

2783
02:35:04.879 --> 02:35:06.760
<v Speaker 2>talking about it a little bit more as the weather

2784
02:35:06.799 --> 02:35:10.120
<v Speaker 2>worms up a bit. Slow and easy. Now the silver

2785
02:35:10.159 --> 02:35:12.719
<v Speaker 2>bag your time, that's from Nitrofus and that is also

2786
02:35:12.760 --> 02:35:15.360
<v Speaker 2>a slow release summer fertilizer. So you hear me talk

2787
02:35:15.399 --> 02:35:17.280
<v Speaker 2>about both of those. I know it can get confusing,

2788
02:35:17.639 --> 02:35:19.719
<v Speaker 2>but if you use the weedon eator the same company's

2789
02:35:19.760 --> 02:35:22.520
<v Speaker 2>products called slow and Easy, but give it about eight

2790
02:35:22.559 --> 02:35:25.959
<v Speaker 2>weeks after you've used the first one so that it

2791
02:35:26.040 --> 02:35:28.520
<v Speaker 2>soaks in really good. Hey, i've got a run. I'm

2792
02:35:28.719 --> 02:35:31.520
<v Speaker 2>up against a very hard break. I'm gonna put you

2793
02:35:31.559 --> 02:35:33.000
<v Speaker 2>on hold and we'll see if we can get back

2794
02:35:33.040 --> 02:35:35.639
<v Speaker 2>to you right after. If you're done, just feel free

2795
02:35:35.680 --> 02:35:48.280
<v Speaker 2>to hang up. Alright, folks, let's get back to it.

2796
02:35:48.360 --> 02:35:50.799
<v Speaker 2>I'm gonna go straight out to the phones to West

2797
02:35:50.920 --> 02:35:53.959
<v Speaker 2>Chase and we're going to talk to Bill next this morning. Hey, Bill,

2798
02:35:54.000 --> 02:35:55.000
<v Speaker 2>welcome to Garden Line.

2799
02:35:56.200 --> 02:35:56.920
<v Speaker 6>How you do it?

2800
02:35:56.959 --> 02:35:57.319
<v Speaker 14>Skip?

2801
02:35:58.159 --> 02:35:59.680
<v Speaker 6>I was planning so good?

2802
02:35:59.680 --> 02:36:00.719
<v Speaker 5>How can I help it?

2803
02:36:02.360 --> 02:36:08.000
<v Speaker 6>I was wondering what sort of fertilizer composition should I

2804
02:36:08.200 --> 02:36:11.239
<v Speaker 6>use for my hibiscuses that I'm planting.

2805
02:36:13.239 --> 02:36:16.680
<v Speaker 2>Well, the folks at Nelson have a nutristar product for

2806
02:36:16.959 --> 02:36:19.639
<v Speaker 2>hibiscus type plants, so they you know, their nutri Star

2807
02:36:19.680 --> 02:36:23.559
<v Speaker 2>line or the little jars of products coming a couple

2808
02:36:23.600 --> 02:36:26.440
<v Speaker 2>of sizes. But they have a vegetable garden one in

2809
02:36:26.520 --> 02:36:29.200
<v Speaker 2>azelia and acid loving plant one, and they do have

2810
02:36:29.239 --> 02:36:32.680
<v Speaker 2>something as well for plants like the hibiscus I would

2811
02:36:32.760 --> 02:36:36.000
<v Speaker 2>use that. It makes it real simple and easy, uh

2812
02:36:36.360 --> 02:36:36.719
<v Speaker 2>to do.

2813
02:36:38.680 --> 02:36:43.399
<v Speaker 6>Well. Someone had said something about muriate of potash.

2814
02:36:45.840 --> 02:36:50.920
<v Speaker 2>Potash. Yeah, no, Well, murate of potash is a potassium

2815
02:36:51.000 --> 02:36:54.920
<v Speaker 2>only fertilizer, and so, I mean, you know, if you

2816
02:36:54.959 --> 02:36:58.079
<v Speaker 2>want to do mixing up your own fertilizers, you get

2817
02:36:58.079 --> 02:37:01.360
<v Speaker 2>something with nitrogen, you get something with potassium which is

2818
02:37:01.399 --> 02:37:06.120
<v Speaker 2>also called potash and whatnot. But I would just you know,

2819
02:37:06.120 --> 02:37:09.360
<v Speaker 2>I would just grab the Nelson's hibiscus. It's called Nutris

2820
02:37:09.399 --> 02:37:14.680
<v Speaker 2>star hibiscus. It's got a good balance of the nutrients

2821
02:37:14.719 --> 02:37:17.360
<v Speaker 2>that hibiscus needs in it, so it works on everything

2822
02:37:18.239 --> 02:37:19.719
<v Speaker 2>that's in the hibiscus family.

2823
02:37:19.799 --> 02:37:26.600
<v Speaker 6>Really, would that also do well for indian hawthorns?

2824
02:37:29.079 --> 02:37:32.280
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, it would because it's got a good amount of nitrogen,

2825
02:37:32.639 --> 02:37:35.520
<v Speaker 2>a little lower phosphate, and then a very good amount

2826
02:37:35.559 --> 02:37:37.920
<v Speaker 2>of potash, which is what you were just asking about

2827
02:37:38.000 --> 02:37:40.559
<v Speaker 2>in that Nelson hibiscus. So you could put that on

2828
02:37:40.600 --> 02:37:44.120
<v Speaker 2>your hawthorns indian hawthorn, and it would do well for

2829
02:37:44.159 --> 02:37:45.879
<v Speaker 2>those as well. If you got a lot of them,

2830
02:37:46.399 --> 02:37:48.440
<v Speaker 2>you know, then you may want to switch to something

2831
02:37:48.479 --> 02:37:52.680
<v Speaker 2>in a bigger bag. But the Nelson comes in different

2832
02:37:52.760 --> 02:37:55.600
<v Speaker 2>sizes of jars, a two pound to four pound. You

2833
02:37:55.600 --> 02:37:57.520
<v Speaker 2>can buy a fifteen gallon bucket or a twenty five

2834
02:37:57.520 --> 02:38:01.959
<v Speaker 2>pound bag out of it. The Nelson nutri star hibiscus

2835
02:38:05.079 --> 02:38:11.120
<v Speaker 2>sounds great. All right, all right, you take care, you bet,

2836
02:38:11.360 --> 02:38:13.000
<v Speaker 2>Thank you for the Thank you for that call.

2837
02:38:13.040 --> 02:38:13.239
<v Speaker 22>A lot.

2838
02:38:13.319 --> 02:38:16.799
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, Nelson products are all over the place in terms

2839
02:38:16.840 --> 02:38:19.440
<v Speaker 2>of options. You know, I will have an aziia, well,

2840
02:38:19.600 --> 02:38:21.680
<v Speaker 2>get the azella and acid loving plants. I have a

2841
02:38:21.719 --> 02:38:24.159
<v Speaker 2>blueberry that's a niceid loving plant. Use the same thing.

2842
02:38:24.520 --> 02:38:26.639
<v Speaker 2>I've got a vegetable garden, use that one. I mean,

2843
02:38:26.920 --> 02:38:30.520
<v Speaker 2>they're all kind of plumeria and rose. They have a

2844
02:38:30.600 --> 02:38:34.639
<v Speaker 2>rose fertilage everything else. Nelson plant food works really really well.

2845
02:38:34.920 --> 02:38:38.639
<v Speaker 2>Let's go now to Mike in Surfside. Hello Mike, and

2846
02:38:38.799 --> 02:38:39.879
<v Speaker 2>welcome to garden Line.

2847
02:38:40.719 --> 02:38:41.520
<v Speaker 5>Hey, thank you Skip.

2848
02:38:41.520 --> 02:38:42.879
<v Speaker 23>I have a real quick question for you.

2849
02:38:43.040 --> 02:38:47.559
<v Speaker 20>I'm promping propagating some Alavera plants and I'm trying to

2850
02:38:47.559 --> 02:38:49.760
<v Speaker 20>figure out what type of soil should I put the

2851
02:38:49.799 --> 02:38:52.239
<v Speaker 20>babies in. Should it be like a cactus type mix

2852
02:38:52.319 --> 02:38:53.520
<v Speaker 20>or this regular potting soil?

2853
02:38:55.680 --> 02:38:56.719
<v Speaker 2>What was the plant again?

2854
02:38:56.760 --> 02:38:57.079
<v Speaker 30>Please?

2855
02:38:58.200 --> 02:39:01.040
<v Speaker 5>Alavera al air.

2856
02:39:01.200 --> 02:39:04.639
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, I would get. The folks at Heirloom Soils have

2857
02:39:04.719 --> 02:39:09.040
<v Speaker 2>a number of different products for potting soils and other

2858
02:39:09.159 --> 02:39:12.319
<v Speaker 2>things like that, but I would get they have one

2859
02:39:12.600 --> 02:39:17.559
<v Speaker 2>that is for cacti in succulents, the cactus and succulent

2860
02:39:17.719 --> 02:39:20.959
<v Speaker 2>type mix. It works really really well. It's called Cactus

2861
02:39:21.040 --> 02:39:24.319
<v Speaker 2>and Succulent. So it comes in bags and so you

2862
02:39:24.360 --> 02:39:26.639
<v Speaker 2>can use it to fill up your containers and anything

2863
02:39:26.680 --> 02:39:29.239
<v Speaker 2>that needs a kind of gritty soil where the drainage

2864
02:39:29.399 --> 02:39:33.639
<v Speaker 2>is better than typical potting soil, way better. Cactus and

2865
02:39:33.719 --> 02:39:39.319
<v Speaker 2>succulent from heirloom. Now, heirloom products are available all over

2866

2871
02:39:56.440 --> 02:39:59.559
<v Speaker 5>Got it. How about the snipe plant?

2872
02:40:00.000 --> 02:40:01.840
<v Speaker 20>Would that fall into the succulent category?

2873
02:40:01.879 --> 02:40:02.159
<v Speaker 11>Also?

2874
02:40:04.200 --> 02:40:09.200
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, it I have I put snake plants in regular soils.

2875
02:40:09.239 --> 02:40:11.719
<v Speaker 2>You know, Airlom Saws makes one called the Works. It's

2876
02:40:11.760 --> 02:40:14.479
<v Speaker 2>just potting soil. I have snake plants in that if

2877
02:40:14.479 --> 02:40:16.040
<v Speaker 2>you want to put a little gritty in there. It's

2878
02:40:16.079 --> 02:40:18.920
<v Speaker 2>always good to have good drainage in your mixes. So

2879
02:40:18.959 --> 02:40:21.319
<v Speaker 2>it's not gonna hurt to put it in calculus and succulent.

2880
02:40:21.760 --> 02:40:24.559
<v Speaker 2>But I think I would just grow that in the works. Uh.

2881
02:40:24.840 --> 02:40:27.280
<v Speaker 2>The Works is another bag of potting soil. They have

2882
02:40:27.920 --> 02:40:32.079
<v Speaker 2>Airlom soils. So yeah, and remember now, I don't want

2883
02:40:32.079 --> 02:40:33.559
<v Speaker 2>to put I don't want to put press. I don't

2884
02:40:33.559 --> 02:40:35.479
<v Speaker 2>want to give you pressure. But if you can't grow

2885
02:40:36.000 --> 02:40:39.120
<v Speaker 2>a mother in long tongue a sense of area. Uh,

2886
02:40:39.200 --> 02:40:41.319
<v Speaker 2>that is the sign of you need to just give

2887
02:40:41.399 --> 02:40:44.360
<v Speaker 2>up on plants and start buying plastic and silk flowers.

2888
02:40:45.559 --> 02:40:48.559
<v Speaker 20>I've got I have a large mother mother plaque. All

2889
02:40:48.600 --> 02:40:50.559
<v Speaker 20>of the mother plant. I just keep hacking them off,

2890
02:40:50.760 --> 02:40:53.000
<v Speaker 20>you know, and you just repot them that I want

2891
02:40:53.000 --> 02:40:56.719
<v Speaker 20>to make the correct soil. Yeah, all right, cool.

2892
02:40:56.639 --> 02:40:57.159
<v Speaker 6>Thank you so much.

2893
02:40:57.200 --> 02:41:01.159
<v Speaker 2>That's that is the plant. Thank you, man. I appreciate that.

2894
02:41:01.479 --> 02:41:04.719
<v Speaker 2>Thanks a lot. Yeah. Airloom Soils. Airloomsoils dot com, go

2895
02:41:04.840 --> 02:41:11.159
<v Speaker 2>check those out. Nitrophos has a number of quality products

2896
02:41:11.200 --> 02:41:13.440
<v Speaker 2>that we can use in our gardens and landscapes and

2897
02:41:13.520 --> 02:41:16.120
<v Speaker 2>lawns and things like that. If you're looking for a

2898
02:41:16.159 --> 02:41:19.159
<v Speaker 2>fast green up, they're Imperial. Fifteen five to ten is

2899
02:41:19.200 --> 02:41:21.719
<v Speaker 2>a product to do that. You put it down, you

2900
02:41:21.840 --> 02:41:24.079
<v Speaker 2>watered in, it dissolves, it goes in the plants, take

2901
02:41:24.120 --> 02:41:26.879
<v Speaker 2>it up. I mean it's like tomorrow, you know, getting

2902
02:41:27.000 --> 02:41:30.159
<v Speaker 2>you're getting those things in the plants. So fifteen five

2903
02:41:30.120 --> 02:41:33.200
<v Speaker 2>to ten is a red bag, a Nitrophs Imperial, and

2904
02:41:33.280 --> 02:41:36.360
<v Speaker 2>it's sold all over town, lots of places. Now I

2905
02:41:36.399 --> 02:41:39.200
<v Speaker 2>know it's a lawn fertilizer. But I'm telling you I've

2906
02:41:39.280 --> 02:41:42.799
<v Speaker 2>used fifteen five to ten for fruit trees and other things.

2907
02:41:43.079 --> 02:41:46.799
<v Speaker 2>You know, it's it's a good fertilizer period, but it's

2908
02:41:46.840 --> 02:41:48.319
<v Speaker 2>one that's going to give you a quick release. So

2909
02:41:48.360 --> 02:41:50.479
<v Speaker 2>don't overdo it unless you want to mow a lot.

2910
02:41:50.639 --> 02:41:52.639
<v Speaker 2>Just put a modern amount. The bag will tell you

2911
02:41:52.719 --> 02:41:55.680
<v Speaker 2>how much to put down. It's immediate release. Now if

2912
02:41:55.719 --> 02:41:58.680
<v Speaker 2>you want these folks that is going to say, well,

2913
02:41:58.719 --> 02:42:00.399
<v Speaker 2>now I've got a bunch of it on to use

2914
02:42:00.399 --> 02:42:02.840
<v Speaker 2>it up. Well, then I would spread out about six

2915
02:42:02.840 --> 02:42:06.040
<v Speaker 2>weeks apart into a light fertilization every six weeks and

2916
02:42:06.079 --> 02:42:09.239
<v Speaker 2>you could just use that product through the summer. My

2917
02:42:09.360 --> 02:42:11.280
<v Speaker 2>preference would be to go to a slower release, but

2918
02:42:11.719 --> 02:42:13.879
<v Speaker 2>you can use that imperial and in small amounts through

2919
02:42:13.879 --> 02:42:15.920
<v Speaker 2>the summer too if you got it on hand. But

2920
02:42:15.959 --> 02:42:17.680
<v Speaker 2>that's an excellent product and you're gonna find it in

<v Speaker 2>a lot of places. You know, the M and d

2925
02:42:31.079 --> 02:42:34.680
<v Speaker 2>and talk to Kenneth Hey Kenneth, Welcome to Guarden Line.

2926
02:42:35.680 --> 02:42:38.440
<v Speaker 12>Good Mornings. GET first time caller. I had a question

2927
02:42:38.600 --> 02:42:44.840
<v Speaker 12>on compost. I have access to your compost is being

2928
02:42:44.879 --> 02:42:48.239
<v Speaker 12>made at a facility for free, and I have top

2929
02:42:48.319 --> 02:42:51.559
<v Speaker 12>soil in my home and I'm trying to understand how

2930
02:42:51.639 --> 02:42:57.000
<v Speaker 12>much I would want that new compost only.

2931
02:42:58.520 --> 02:43:00.399
<v Speaker 2>What what are you going to grow in this?

2932
02:43:02.079 --> 02:43:04.000
<v Speaker 12>I want to use it in my garden.

2933
02:43:05.680 --> 02:43:06.680
<v Speaker 2>In Okay.

2934
02:43:07.479 --> 02:43:08.840
<v Speaker 12>Yeah.

2935
02:43:09.200 --> 02:43:11.760
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, you know a lot a lot of the bed mixes,

2936
02:43:11.840 --> 02:43:14.799
<v Speaker 2>like the veggie nerve mix and stuff, they are primarily

2937
02:43:15.000 --> 02:43:19.120
<v Speaker 2>organic matter as opposed to the mineral soil product. I

2938
02:43:19.120 --> 02:43:23.200
<v Speaker 2>mean they you know, primarily organic matter. So I would

2939
02:43:23.440 --> 02:43:26.399
<v Speaker 2>you know, it depends on exactly what you're going to

2940
02:43:26.440 --> 02:43:28.559
<v Speaker 2>grow in the quality of the soil you have right now.

2941
02:43:28.600 --> 02:43:31.440
<v Speaker 2>But you could do fifty to fifty on the compostor

2942
02:43:31.520 --> 02:43:33.680
<v Speaker 2>with the soil that you have and mix them up

2943
02:43:33.719 --> 02:43:35.680
<v Speaker 2>really good and go with that route. That would be

2944
02:43:35.719 --> 02:43:36.719
<v Speaker 2>one one option.

2945
02:43:38.040 --> 02:43:38.239
<v Speaker 6>Yeah.

2946
02:43:38.280 --> 02:43:41.440
<v Speaker 12>I think it's pretty hot stuff. I mean it's I know,

2947
02:43:41.520 --> 02:43:43.760
<v Speaker 12>the company that they sell it to, I think they

2948
02:43:43.840 --> 02:43:46.200
<v Speaker 12>mix it pretty good, but they're I just didn't know

2949
02:43:46.239 --> 02:43:47.600
<v Speaker 12>how much ease it.

2950
02:43:47.639 --> 02:43:52.760
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, yeah, well I understand, and uh yeah, we're not

2951
02:43:52.799 --> 02:43:55.959
<v Speaker 2>talking about Madisonville mushroom compost here are we we're talking

2952
02:43:56.000 --> 02:43:58.440
<v Speaker 2>about Are we talking about mushroom?

2953
02:44:00.120 --> 02:44:05.959
<v Speaker 12>No, it's a mixture of milk product being product waste.

2954
02:44:06.520 --> 02:44:12.559
<v Speaker 2>Okay, okay, Well, now, a lot of folks, you know,

2955
02:44:12.719 --> 02:44:18.159
<v Speaker 2>are gonna shy away from using the human waste composts

2956
02:44:18.479 --> 02:44:22.360
<v Speaker 2>in a vegetable garden just because of the potential that's

2957
02:44:22.399 --> 02:44:26.840
<v Speaker 2>there for something going wrong or maybe heavy used to

2958
02:44:26.879 --> 02:44:29.760
<v Speaker 2>be heavy metals were worried about a lot as well

2959
02:44:29.799 --> 02:44:33.360
<v Speaker 2>as I generally don't recommend those kind of products in

2960
02:44:33.399 --> 02:44:34.319
<v Speaker 2>a vegetable garden.

2961
02:44:34.680 --> 02:44:34.879
<v Speaker 7>Uh.

2962
02:44:34.959 --> 02:44:37.159
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, there, it's a fertilet. I mean, it's a it's

2963
02:44:37.200 --> 02:44:39.600
<v Speaker 2>a compost, so it does what compost does. Would just

2964
02:44:39.600 --> 02:44:41.280
<v Speaker 2>be a little I'd be a little cautious on the

2965
02:44:41.319 --> 02:44:44.920
<v Speaker 2>human waste. But that's that. That's just nice to you

2966
02:44:45.000 --> 02:44:45.200
<v Speaker 2>on that.

2967
02:44:45.600 --> 02:44:47.959
<v Speaker 12>I think the human waste is not near as much

2968
02:44:48.000 --> 02:44:50.000
<v Speaker 12>as every other thing. I mean, they do put a

2969
02:44:50.000 --> 02:44:54.399
<v Speaker 12>lot of tree moults with it when they grind them up.

2970
02:44:54.920 --> 02:45:03.000
<v Speaker 24>All right, Okay, I understand, Kenny, Okay, thank you sir.

2971
02:45:03.399 --> 02:45:07.159
<v Speaker 2>There are a number of avocados that will do well here. Yeah,

2972
02:45:07.159 --> 02:45:09.280
<v Speaker 2>I Ken of I've lost you on the call. There,

2973
02:45:09.559 --> 02:45:11.280
<v Speaker 2>But there are a number of avocados. Go to the

2974
02:45:11.360 --> 02:45:13.479
<v Speaker 2>kinds of nurseries hear me talk about, and they will

2975
02:45:13.479 --> 02:45:15.440
<v Speaker 2>sell you the kind you need to plant here. There

2976
02:45:15.440 --> 02:45:17.440
<v Speaker 2>are some kinds you don't plant here, but there's something

2977
02:45:17.479 --> 02:45:20.079
<v Speaker 2>you do. Yeah, those human waste products. To have to

2978
02:45:20.079 --> 02:45:24.239
<v Speaker 2>crack a joke right here in Austin, there's something called

2979
02:45:24.239 --> 02:45:28.120
<v Speaker 2>dillo dirt and it's made from sewage sludge. And I

2980
02:45:28.159 --> 02:45:30.520
<v Speaker 2>think the label in the bag should be there's a

2981
02:45:30.520 --> 02:45:35.280
<v Speaker 2>little of you in every bag. With that, I'll leave you.

2982
02:45:35.399 --> 02:45:40.639
<v Speaker 2>I'll be right back in a while. Since Aric Allan, Hey,

2983
02:45:40.680 --> 02:45:42.200
<v Speaker 2>welcome back to the garden line. Good to have you

02:45:59.559 --> 02:46:02.959
<v Speaker 2>gardens and they invented the disappearing fountain and everything. How

2990
02:46:02.959 --> 02:46:06.959
<v Speaker 2>about the nursery part. It is a great nursery. Lots

2991
02:46:06.959 --> 02:46:11.120
<v Speaker 2>of seasonal color right now, beautiful roses, annuals that can

2992
02:46:11.159 --> 02:46:13.959
<v Speaker 2>take the sun. Beautiful plants for the shade, like a

2993
02:46:14.000 --> 02:46:17.200
<v Speaker 2>wide variety of colius colors and things in the shade.

2994
02:46:17.479 --> 02:46:19.639
<v Speaker 2>But I just want to focus on one particular thing

2995
02:46:19.719 --> 02:46:22.319
<v Speaker 2>right now, and that is the herb products that they have.

2996
02:46:22.399 --> 02:46:25.040
<v Speaker 2>The herb plants that they have. They have things like

2997
02:46:25.159 --> 02:46:28.239
<v Speaker 2>cinnamon basil and lemon basil and sweet genevies. That's one

2998
02:46:28.280 --> 02:46:32.159
<v Speaker 2>of the best ones for culinary use, Tiam or Taysiam

2999
02:46:32.680 --> 02:46:36.000
<v Speaker 2>queen basil. Then they got mints like penny royal and peppermint,

3000
02:46:36.079 --> 02:46:39.840
<v Speaker 2>and chocolate and red stem apple mint, English mint, Kentucky

<v Speaker 2>Colonel mint, I mean Jacob Klein be bomb. If you

3002
02:46:43.760 --> 02:46:46.600
<v Speaker 2>want to make the pollinators happy, especially bees in your garden,

3003
02:46:46.959 --> 02:46:48.920
<v Speaker 2>get some of the beautiful colored I believe it's a

02:46:48.959 --> 02:46:51.399
<v Speaker 2>deep red the last time I had Jacob kleinb deep

3005

3007
02:47:02.239 --> 02:47:05.159

3008
02:47:05.159 --> 02:47:10.200
<v Speaker 2>straight green stalks so that you can skew your meats

3009
02:47:10.239 --> 02:47:13.920
<v Speaker 2>and vegetables on them and use them to make kebabs,

3010
02:47:14.040 --> 02:47:16.040
<v Speaker 2>you know, as you're barbecuing out there in the grill.

3011
02:47:16.079 --> 02:47:17.440
<v Speaker 2>Isn't that cool? I mean you can use it for

3012
02:47:17.479 --> 02:47:19.799
<v Speaker 2>other things too, and then time and lavender and on

3013
02:47:19.879 --> 02:47:23.159
<v Speaker 2>and on and on. But when you think about Nelson

02:47:23.200 --> 02:47:25.479
<v Speaker 2>Water Garden and Nursery outing Katie and by the way,

3015

02:47:30.479 --> 02:47:31.840
<v Speaker 2>just a little bit up the road, on the right

3018
02:47:31.879 --> 02:47:34.719
<v Speaker 2>hand side. When you think about them, think about all

3019
02:47:34.719 --> 02:47:37.280
<v Speaker 2>the other plants that Nelson Nursery and Water Garden has.

3020

3027
02:47:59.559 --> 02:48:04.840
<v Speaker 2>most therapeutic thing that you can imagine. Absolutely, you can imagine.

3028
02:48:04.920 --> 02:48:07.520
<v Speaker 2>All right, let's go out there to Conroe. Now we're

3029
02:48:07.520 --> 02:48:10.360
<v Speaker 2>going to talk to Jim. Hey Jim, welcome to garden Line.

3030
02:48:10.360 --> 02:48:11.200
<v Speaker 2>How are you doing today?

3031
02:48:12.239 --> 02:48:12.520
<v Speaker 15>Great?

3032
02:48:12.600 --> 02:48:13.879
<v Speaker 25>Great yourself this morning?

3033
02:48:15.799 --> 02:48:17.920
<v Speaker 2>I'm well, thank you good.

3034
02:48:18.200 --> 02:48:18.920
<v Speaker 5>Hey. Question.

3035
02:48:19.200 --> 02:48:22.120
<v Speaker 25>I'm gonna look at some Early Greenup.

3036
02:48:22.159 --> 02:48:24.879
<v Speaker 11>I've used the fifteen five to ten before, but.

3037
02:48:25.440 --> 02:48:28.079
<v Speaker 25>I had some micro Life that I had left over

3038
02:48:28.120 --> 02:48:31.319
<v Speaker 25>from last year. I bought way too much didn't use it.

3039
02:48:31.399 --> 02:48:35.280
<v Speaker 25>And it's a six two four. I don't know what

3040
02:48:35.319 --> 02:48:39.159
<v Speaker 25>the shelf life like that is, Yes, sir, yeah.

3041
02:48:39.120 --> 02:48:43.760
<v Speaker 2>Jelf life still it's yeah, shelf life. It's still good

3042
02:48:43.799 --> 02:48:46.000
<v Speaker 2>to use. It's still good to use. And you mentioned

3043
02:48:46.079 --> 02:48:47.600
<v Speaker 2>Early green Up. If you want to, if you only

3044
02:48:47.680 --> 02:48:49.479
<v Speaker 2>use a micro Life product for Early green it'd get

3045
02:48:49.520 --> 02:48:53.000
<v Speaker 2>the blue bag Microlife Ultimate. It's got an extra boost

3046
02:48:53.079 --> 02:48:55.600
<v Speaker 2>of nitrogen charge in it that'll give you some quick

3047
02:48:55.639 --> 02:48:59.200
<v Speaker 2>results as well as the ongoing results of the you

3048
02:48:59.239 --> 02:49:01.840
<v Speaker 2>would expect from micro Life fertilizer. Yeah, you can use

3049
02:49:01.879 --> 02:49:04.520
<v Speaker 2>it now. And by the way, you know you said

3050
02:49:04.520 --> 02:49:07.760
<v Speaker 2>you had some left over. You can use the micro

3051
02:49:07.799 --> 02:49:10.319
<v Speaker 2>Life six T four on all kinds of things. I mean,

3052
02:49:10.360 --> 02:49:12.040
<v Speaker 2>you can put in your flower beds, you put around

3053
02:49:12.040 --> 02:49:15.000
<v Speaker 2>your fruit trees, you can use your vegetable gardens. So

3054
02:49:15.920 --> 02:49:18.200
<v Speaker 2>you know, if you have some left over, just find

3055
02:49:18.280 --> 02:49:20.959
<v Speaker 2>other places to use it. It really worked. I would

3056
02:49:20.959 --> 02:49:23.399
<v Speaker 2>put it on roses as well. It's got a higher

3057
02:49:23.479 --> 02:49:26.760
<v Speaker 2>nitrogen content to give a boost of growth there. Yeah.

3058
02:49:26.799 --> 02:49:30.479
<v Speaker 2>So just because it's a lawn fertilizer, uh, you know,

3059
02:49:30.520 --> 02:49:33.120
<v Speaker 2>don't let it sit around waiting for next lawn season.

3060
02:49:33.159 --> 02:49:36.000
<v Speaker 2>Go ahead and use it all all over and get

3061
02:49:36.079 --> 02:49:40.000
<v Speaker 2>you some fresh stuff when we get back. Okay, you're

3062
02:49:40.000 --> 02:49:43.079
<v Speaker 2>set up. You're saying, thank you so very much.

3063
02:49:43.159 --> 02:49:44.200
<v Speaker 5>I appreciate it.

3064
02:49:45.639 --> 02:49:45.840
<v Speaker 11>Great.

3065
02:49:45.879 --> 02:49:48.520
<v Speaker 2>I appreciate your call. Thanks a lot. You take care

3066
02:49:48.559 --> 02:49:53.399
<v Speaker 2>of Jim. Yeah. You know, plants can't read. This is

3067
02:49:53.440 --> 02:49:56.840
<v Speaker 2>a this is my educational announcement. Plants can't read, so

3068
02:49:57.280 --> 02:49:59.559
<v Speaker 2>when you put a fertilizer on them, they just want

3069
02:49:59.600 --> 02:50:02.000
<v Speaker 2>to know is there some nitrogen there for me? Is

3070
02:50:02.000 --> 02:50:03.719
<v Speaker 2>there some phosphorus? You know, I got to do a

3071
02:50:03.760 --> 02:50:05.840
<v Speaker 2>lot of rooting here. I'm trying to get started as

3072
02:50:05.879 --> 02:50:10.040
<v Speaker 2>a new transplant. Need some phosphorus. You know. They don't

3073
02:50:10.239 --> 02:50:12.799
<v Speaker 2>know what the fertilizer bag says, and it says it's

3074
02:50:12.799 --> 02:50:15.200
<v Speaker 2>a citrus food or a rose suit or whatever. That

3075
02:50:15.360 --> 02:50:17.600
<v Speaker 2>just means the ratio of nutrients is a little different

3076
02:50:18.319 --> 02:50:21.600
<v Speaker 2>in those But the bottom line is, you know, you

3077
02:50:21.639 --> 02:50:25.000
<v Speaker 2>get a quality lawn type fertilizer and it's good for

3078
02:50:25.079 --> 02:50:27.600
<v Speaker 2>a lot of things. Now, I wouldn't you know, something

3079
02:50:27.600 --> 02:50:30.799
<v Speaker 2>that wants a lot of heavy phosphorus feeding all the time.

3080
02:50:30.879 --> 02:50:33.159
<v Speaker 2>You know, well, yeah, I wouldn't use a lawn fertilizer

3081
02:50:33.159 --> 02:50:35.120
<v Speaker 2>on that year after year after year. But when you

3082
02:50:35.159 --> 02:50:37.719
<v Speaker 2>got something on hand, don't afridge, just use it. It's

3083
02:50:37.760 --> 02:50:40.920
<v Speaker 2>okay to do that. And an example of a good

3084
02:50:41.000 --> 02:50:43.319
<v Speaker 2>lawn fertilizer that you could use for other things as

3085
02:50:43.319 --> 02:50:47.520
<v Speaker 2>well is Nitrophoss Superturf. That's their silver bag. Now, it's

3086
02:50:47.520 --> 02:50:51.319
<v Speaker 2>a nineteen four to ten fertilizer, so it's roughly a

3087
02:50:51.399 --> 02:50:53.959
<v Speaker 2>four to one two ratio, which is excellent going through

3088
02:50:53.959 --> 02:50:57.159
<v Speaker 2>the summer. You may be thinking, nineteen percent nitrogen, I'm

3089
02:50:57.159 --> 02:51:00.479
<v Speaker 2>gonna burn it, that's too much. No, here's the difference.

3090
02:51:01.079 --> 02:51:06.479
<v Speaker 2>That nineteen percent gets gradually released over time for four months.

3091
02:51:06.959 --> 02:51:10.920
<v Speaker 2>So it'd be like taking a less concentrated fertilizer and

3092
02:51:10.959 --> 02:51:13.680
<v Speaker 2>applaying it two or three times, depending on the concentration

3093
02:51:13.760 --> 02:51:16.799
<v Speaker 2>of the fertilizer. So when you put nitropas super turf out,

3094
02:51:16.799 --> 02:51:18.639
<v Speaker 2>you're only going to put about five pounds per thousand

3095
02:51:18.639 --> 02:51:21.120
<v Speaker 2>square feet. That's a very very low rate, so it

3096
02:51:21.159 --> 02:51:25.520
<v Speaker 2>goes a long way. It's perfect for Saint Augustine Bermuda Zotzia. Again.

3097
02:51:25.680 --> 02:51:29.200
<v Speaker 2>Four months of feeding and by gradually releasing the nutrients,

3098
02:51:29.200 --> 02:51:33.399
<v Speaker 2>you don't get that flush of grass blade growth that

3099
02:51:33.440 --> 02:51:36.000
<v Speaker 2>means your momo mo trying to keep up with it.

3100
02:51:35.920 --> 02:51:37.799
<v Speaker 2>It gives you a nice even feed and you're going

3101
02:51:37.879 --> 02:51:40.360
<v Speaker 2>to find it a lot of places. You go up

3102
02:51:40.399 --> 02:51:42.239
<v Speaker 2>to D and D Feed and Tomball on twenty nine

3103
02:51:42.280 --> 02:51:44.600
<v Speaker 2>to twenty west of town, they're going to have it there.

3104
02:51:44.680 --> 02:51:47.120
<v Speaker 2>You go to Plants for All Seasons on Tomball Parkway

3105
02:51:47.639 --> 02:51:50.360
<v Speaker 2>just north of Luetta, they're going to have it there

3106
02:51:50.479 --> 02:51:53.799
<v Speaker 2>as well. You go to Lake Hardware in Angleton of Alasko,

3107
02:51:54.000 --> 02:51:55.600
<v Speaker 2>or you show up at all Sposece up in the

3108
02:51:55.639 --> 02:51:59.920
<v Speaker 2>Woodlands on Kirkandal. All these are places that carry nitapas products,

3109
02:52:01.040 --> 02:52:03.680
<v Speaker 2>so they have no excuse for not being able to

3110
02:52:03.799 --> 02:52:08.319
<v Speaker 2>find them because they are widely available. Well, I had

3111
02:52:08.360 --> 02:52:10.520
<v Speaker 2>a thousand things I was going to talk about today,

3112
02:52:10.760 --> 02:52:14.159
<v Speaker 2>and uh, we got to some of them. So maybe

3113
02:52:14.200 --> 02:52:16.680
<v Speaker 2>we'll take off and do this again tomorrow. I'm about

3114
02:52:16.719 --> 02:52:19.639
<v Speaker 2>to jump in a car and head to Ciena Maltz

3115

3117
02:52:28.680 --> 02:52:32.920
<v Speaker 2>It's really easy to get to cienamultch is if you need.

3118
02:52:33.040 --> 02:52:36.280
<v Speaker 2>If you want an address, it's on FM five twenty

02:53:37.799 --> 02:53:39.760

3139
02:53:39.840 --> 02:53:43.559
<v Speaker 2>run out to Cyprus and talk to Robert. Hey, Robert,

3140
02:53:43.840 --> 02:53:44.559
<v Speaker 2>welcome to gardener.

3141
02:53:44.680 --> 02:53:47.479
<v Speaker 31>Yes, thank you, and thank you for taking my call.

3142
02:53:47.520 --> 02:53:51.719
<v Speaker 31>I've got being overwhelmed with clover cock burrs, and I

3143
02:53:51.760 --> 02:53:54.399
<v Speaker 31>don't want to put two four too fertilizer down from

3144
02:53:54.479 --> 02:53:57.079
<v Speaker 31>my grass because it's going to do nothing to promote

3145
02:53:57.079 --> 02:53:59.680
<v Speaker 31>the growth of the clover. I'll hang up and listen.

3146
02:53:59.719 --> 02:54:01.760
<v Speaker 31>Can I I find something that will kill just the

3147
02:54:01.840 --> 02:54:03.799
<v Speaker 31>clover cocker burns?

3148
02:54:04.440 --> 02:54:08.440
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, yeah you can. And you can go out to

3149
02:54:08.680 --> 02:54:12.360
<v Speaker 2>a garden center or a feed store or an ace

3150
02:54:12.440 --> 02:54:18.120
<v Speaker 2>hardware store. You know, when am I leaving out Southwest Fertilizer,

3151
02:54:18.280 --> 02:54:20.879
<v Speaker 2>you know all those places are going to carry post

3152
02:54:21.040 --> 02:54:25.399
<v Speaker 2>emergent broad leaf weed control products. So basically, you're getting

3153
02:54:25.399 --> 02:54:27.920
<v Speaker 2>a liquid, you're mixing it in your little sprayer, and

3154
02:54:27.959 --> 02:54:31.159
<v Speaker 2>you're growing around squirting those weeds with it. And there

3155
02:54:31.159 --> 02:54:34.399
<v Speaker 2>are a lot of them out there, and so you know,

3156
02:54:34.639 --> 02:54:37.000
<v Speaker 2>I'm going to give you a couple of examples in

3157
02:54:37.120 --> 02:54:40.799
<v Speaker 2>recommending the product. It's just an example. Fertil On weed

3158
02:54:40.840 --> 02:54:45.479
<v Speaker 2>free Zone is one. Bone eye weed beater Ultra is

3159
02:54:45.520 --> 02:54:49.719
<v Speaker 2>another one those products. When it heats up upper eighties

3160
02:54:49.760 --> 02:54:53.319
<v Speaker 2>and definitely the nineties, you can stress your Saint Augustine

3161
02:54:53.360 --> 02:54:55.000
<v Speaker 2>with them. So go ahead and get it done now,

3162
02:54:55.120 --> 02:54:57.079
<v Speaker 2>and do it in the morning even as it heats

3163
02:54:57.120 --> 02:54:59.120
<v Speaker 2>up a little bit more. If you get that spray

3164
02:54:59.200 --> 02:55:01.600
<v Speaker 2>down in the morning where it dries up for the

3165
02:55:01.760 --> 02:55:04.040
<v Speaker 2>day gets hot, you're not going to see that kind

3166
02:55:04.079 --> 02:55:06.760
<v Speaker 2>of damage on it. But those are the ones there.

3167
02:55:07.520 --> 02:55:11.319
<v Speaker 2>Each of them is a combination of different products. They

3168
02:55:11.399 --> 02:55:14.000
<v Speaker 2>go at those broad leaf weeds in different ways, and

3169
02:55:14.040 --> 02:55:18.159
<v Speaker 2>so with that combo all those many different kinds of

3170
02:55:18.200 --> 02:55:20.200
<v Speaker 2>weeds you have in your lawn, you're probably going to

3171
02:55:20.239 --> 02:55:22.440
<v Speaker 2>get ninety nine percent of them with that kind of

3172
02:55:22.479 --> 02:55:25.719
<v Speaker 2>a spray. It works really good. Remember that things like

3173
02:55:25.840 --> 02:55:28.840
<v Speaker 2>clover are cool season weeds that are going to seed,

3174
02:55:29.040 --> 02:55:31.879
<v Speaker 2>So if you spray them and kill them, they probably

3175
02:55:31.920 --> 02:55:35.040
<v Speaker 2>already have viable seeds on them, so they'll be here

3176
02:55:35.280 --> 02:55:38.760
<v Speaker 2>next fall to germinate. And a pre emergent before they

3177
02:55:38.799 --> 02:55:41.559
<v Speaker 2>germinate in the fall will be a technique. What I

3178
02:55:41.600 --> 02:55:43.600
<v Speaker 2>do in my yard. Once I see the seed on

3179
02:55:43.600 --> 02:55:45.639
<v Speaker 2>a weed, I just pull it up. Now, I know,

3180
02:55:45.639 --> 02:55:47.520
<v Speaker 2>if you got a lot, that may not be practical.

3181
02:55:47.840 --> 02:55:49.639
<v Speaker 2>But when you pull it up, you get all those

3182
02:55:49.639 --> 02:55:53.360
<v Speaker 2>seeds out of there, and you don't sentence yourself to

3183
02:55:53.440 --> 02:55:58.440
<v Speaker 2>several years of pulling weeds. That's the tip of the day.
