Brown Stuff Before Green Stuff!

the radio. You know, you see these all these retro pictures of people listening to I don't know, President Roosevelt or something over the radio, and only things only came on at certain times. Then the real radio world began where we started seeing radios everwhere cars and everything. He listened to Garden Line that way too. Still the way I suggest you listen to Garden Line. Of course, it's up to you. Some people listen on their computer. If you go to the Katry's website. You can listen live

to garden Line that way. But the way I like best is on my phone. I listened to so much stuff on my phone, of course, podcasts and whatnot. But if you get the iHeartRadio apps, a little red, little red square with a heart in it, white heart in it, and download that and fine garden Line. We're not hard to find. There's only two in the whole country, and some other other ones. I think we're in the northeast

or something. Anyway, Uh, Fine guard Line and you know, connect to that and you can listen to live shows. You can also listen to past shows. So like last weekend you were you know, family had invaded the house and you didn't have time to listen. You want to go back and hear some things, Well you can do that with the iHeartRadio app or online at the KTRS website. Now, so what I suggest people do, and one of these days somebody's going to do this is take the phone

with you can go out in garden. I know it's dark outside now, but once it gets light, you're out in the garden. You see a bug, you see a plant, you got a weed, you want to question something, take a picture of it, call my producer and the number, by the way to call us or to be on the show is seven to one three two one two k t RH seven one three two one two k t RHU. They'll give you a email that you can use to send photos and then call the show. I

can't just type out answers to every email. That is all I would do all day, and I wouldn't even get it done that way. But if you email and want to call in and follow up, we'll answer your question live on the air, So it could be live from your garden or your lawn. That's a way I like to listen to radio. So however you want to go about it, go about it that way. All right, Well, we're here to help you have a bountiful garden, a beautiful landscape and more fun in the process. And welcome

our my new producer today, Alejandro, who's with us. So be nice, be polite, and I know you are. We'll have a good time. Hey, jungle Land is that potting soil I keep talking about from a distributed by the folks at night foss and jungle Land has two versions. There's an outdoor version. It's called flour and vegetable planting soil, and then indoor version is jungle l and water saver potting soil. I want to talk about the indoor version for just a minute. Why is it called water saver.

It's called that because there is a little kind of a clear crystal in the potting soil. They look like little dried chunks of jellow, very very very small. Okay, When you wet the soil, they absorb a lot of water, many times your weight in water, and they hold on

to it. So even when that you know, potting mix itself starts to dry out, there is still some water in those crystals for a while, and it makes it so that if you don't if you don't remember the water, your plants, you know, have something to hang on until you do remember. Anyway, jungle land water saving potting soil.

For all your indoor plants and all the different things we grow indoors, you know, the best way to take care of your plants indoors is to give them good soaking and then let them dry out pretty far, pretty far along the way, and that brings oxygen into the soil. Well. We kill more indoor plants by overwatering than by underwatering. That's just a fact we do. And with the jungle

Land water Saver not number one. It drains well, but it does hold on to moisture for an extended period of time and that is the best way, really, I think the best cycle for watering and jungle and helps you do just that. It's available from Nitroposter. You're gonna find it at places like Bearings Hardware on Bissonad or the one over on Westheimer. Head out to Richmond Rosenberg area and you're going to find it an Enchanted Forest.

It's available out there as well. Speaking of Enchanted Forest, I was checking out some of the things going on out there. You know, they always have programs out there through the spring especially, There's a lot of things happening and they just continue to have really really cool and fun events. There is a program coming up and I want to tell you about this one. It is, I say, coming up. It's coming up this morning and it starts

at ten am and it's called Revive. You're hanging baskets with Debbie Pinks and Debil guide you through the how tos of creating and sustaining a beautiful hanging back. Get all the way through the heat of summer. Hanging baskets, like outdoor containers in general, are just great to have. And when you go to in Jenny Forest, you're going to find more than enough plants for any kind of

basket or container you would want to create. You know, the trailing plants that come over the sides, the upright plants, and they'll guide you there. You know when you walk in, this is a full service guard center. They've got people that know what they're talking about walking around helping you

have success. And so if you maybe you're not a designer and you're going, you know what, I want a beautify hanging basket, but I don't know what plants to put together, which ones grow together, what looks good together to help you with that, But stop by today at ten am and check out this free program on hanging baskets. They'll be a Rob's food truck or the mini donut one. That is so another reason to go. Oh, by the way, when you're out there, you got to check out their herbs.

They have a brand new selection of herbs. And when I say they have herbs, I mean they have herbs like you know what basil is, right, Pesto basil, thirteen varieties of basil. Did you even know there were thirteen varieties of basil, Yes they do. They have curry plants, one called icicles, and yeah, it's as cool as it sounds. Lovage another herb. You don't hear a lot about nine different kinds of mint, from chocolate mint to apple mint. Three types of regano, seven types of time. Do you

see what I'm saying? Just go check out the herb shop. Now that's just the herb, the herb building itself. It's that way all the way across intended gardens. By the way, they're down there in Richmond Rosenberg area. If you were in Richmond heading towards sugar Land Way, coming up fifty nine, it's off to the right on FM twenty seven fifty nine. Here's the website. This is where you find out everything you need to know. Enchanted Forest Richmond, TX dot com.

Enchanted Forest, Richmond, TX dot com. All right, folks, we're back. Welcome back to garden Line. Good to have you with us this morning. We're here to answer the questions you might have to help you have success. Gardening is a fun hobby, it's a great hobby, and we want you

to have success. I don't want you to go out to someplace and get a beautiful little plant, take it home with dreams of I don't know, tomatoes or whatever that plant produces for you, roses, rose flowers, and only to be frustrated and feel like, yeah, I can't grow stuff. You can. There. I say this all the time. I'll say it again. You do not have a brown thumb. There is no actually, there's no such thing as a

brown thumb. If we want to, if we want to, just you know, pretend, because we all know what that means, brown thumb. I kill plants. Well, let's put it this way. Your thumb is uninformed, and we will inform your thumb and it will turn green. How about that. Just keep listening to garden Line and we'll do that. And but you know, success with plants involves getting good quality plants that are gonna grow, that want to grow here. That's very important. That's why we send you to the best

garden centers in the Greater Houston area. Secondly, putting the products on them that helps them have success, from fertilizers to pest control, disease control, insect control, weed control, and there's no place in town that has a better selection of all of that than Southwest Fertilizer. They're on the corner of Bissinet and Runwick in Southwest Houston. Uh, if you want to get McCall seven to one three six six' six one seven four four seven to one three

six sixty six one seven four to. Four they're in their seventieth. Year they've been around since nineteen fifty. Five they are a lawn and garden tradition here In. Houston many people through the decades have gone there because they know when they go, there they get whatever they. Need AND i mean that if If southwest doesn't have, it you don't need. It for, example do you need a? Tool all? Right they have a ninety foot long wall of quality. Tools see What i'm talking, about every kind of.

Fertilizer you can. Imagine nothing's on my. Schedule no product comes out of my mouth on the air that is not At Southwest. Fertilizer because whatever works is What i'm going to talk, about and they know to carry whatever. Works Southwest fertilizer corner Of businette And. Renwick let's go out to the. Woodlands we're gonna start off With paul this. Morning Hey, paul welcome to Garden.

Species that's pretty much true in the garden as. Well so my guess on it IS i would look at providing a fertilization with some of the micro nutrients if it appears mostly on the older, foliage which means that it would be a translocatable nutrient when a plant is lacking for a particular, nutrient if it, can it steals it from the old leaves to move it to the new growth to support the new growth and keep. Going and that's what's happening on your. Plants so it's going

to be something that. Moves it's not, nitrogen that's. Translate it's not let's say it's not magnesium, either although it could possibly be a. Magnesium just for, Fun i'd mix a couple of tablespoons OF EPs and salt into a gallon of, water dissolve it real, good and then drench it around the root system of those plants and see if the new growth continues on and this problem doesn't. PROGRESS i would try, That BUT i would also just

get me a, good, good complete. Fertilizer you, know when you if you're going to use a product Like, microlife for, example it's an organic, fertilizer and so it's not just like they took the the elements nitrogen and phosphorus and potassium and put them into a. Fertilizer it's it's living materials that have been decomposed into a fertilizer. Form and so it's got all of crows as. WELL i would try putting some of that on.

numbers just escaped me on. It, ANYWAY i would try that one put a little bit of that in there and just watch and see how something's wrong in the. Nutrients and since they've sent you the, mix you, KNOW i don't know what's in the mix they sent, you SO i really don't know what to suggest that you. Add there are some other soluble fertilizers that you mix up and water and put on, plants and a lot of those have micronutrients in them as. WELL i think

this could be a micro, nutrient but not. Necessarily but, anyway that's WHAT i, see and so we need to fix the. Nutrients plus they don't have a healthy green color like they, could and SO i THINK i think they need a little bigger boost of. Nutrients maybe things got a little too. DILUTE i don't. Know that's my best shot at, it, though.

micro life products are. Excellent they. Come they have the liquid forms and they have the granular solid. Forms right, now granular it's lawn fertilizing, season and the green, bag the six two, four that's the standard number one selling organic fertilizer in The houston, market a Greater houston market really sold all over the. Place and going with, that they have a purple bag that's Called humates. PLUS i would suggest you also do. That it's not in place of,

fertilizing it's in addition to. It The humates plus provides the final decomposition stage of composted organic. Matter so think of it as concentrated compost in a. Bag and the WAY i describe it is if you made this giant pile of leaves and grass, clippings huge, pile and then you composted it, down you would have a fraction of the size of that pile now as. Compost if you let compost go all the way to its final, stage the humus that results from it would be a fraction

of the size of the. Compost so it's concentrated compost in a. Bag, now anytime you use two different, products and this is a general advice, here whether you're, putting you, know two different fertilizers or a fertilizer with some other control product of some, sort never put them all in the same. Hopper because the particle sizes are different and

you don't get good even distribution that. Way what you do you use in this, case the the green bag and put it, out cover your law with, it and then come back and load up with the purple bag the heum mats plus and put it out and you can do humates plus many times of years you. Want it's you, know it's not the fertilizer that makes it turn.

Green it's the product that improves the. Soil and organic growing is all about improving the soil gradually over time so your lung gets better and, better or whatever you're growing gets better and. Better you can go To Microlife fertilizer dot com find out more. Information but you're going to find these at feed, stores at quality garden, centers you're going to find a bit a hardware.

NURSERY i was looking at the plants in the building that you have to walk through the building to get into the nursery. Part their. HOUSEPUINS i don't how to describe. It they're just. Beautiful it's like a lot of times you get a houseplant and it looks, okay you, know but you, KNOW i kind of need to take it,

home grow it in a little. Bit there's you can pick it up From Nelson Water gardens and take it right to somebody as a, gift just tick a bowl on.

put in a large. Container limes are about as cold tender as you're going to get on all the citrus that we will want to plan around, here they're very cold, tender and so you Are rather than trying to cover them a whole, Lot i'm just putting mine in a very large container and Then i'll move it into the

garage on when cold weather. Threatens the other nice thing about a container is and you should have container, citrus by the, way whether it's a little kellum, mandane or whether it's a lime or a lemon or, whatever you should have some because you can put them wherever you want in a. Container you can move them to that nice sunny. Spot you can put them where the breeze will blow from the tree to your outdoor sitting. Area

maybe they're at the out in the outdoor sitting. Area and when when citrus, blooms it is just oh, fragrant it smells so. Good if they never produce, fruit it would be worth having the plant just for the fragrance of the. Blooms but, Anyway i'm putting mine in a large container and then when it's, Cold i'll just move it. In now the thing keep in, mind the bigger the, container the more root volume for the. Plant so it

can get a little bigger the plant. Can but also when we get into hot weather and it's not, raining if your container's too small for the size of a. Plant and this isn't just citrus trees and every, plant you want to grow your water more. Often And i've had plants they got so big in the container they were in THAT i was watering them twice a day just to keep them from going in. Distress and you don't want them to go in. Distress so that's important to be able to do. That, anyway you get the,

IDEA i need to take a little break. HERE i will be right back with your. Call seven one three two one two k T. Rh all, right we're all, right.

Activity it is it's, therapeutic and IT'S i don't. KNOW i could go, on AND i do periodically drone on about all the benefits of, gardening But i'll spare you that for right. Now WITH i hold on to the right to come back to it later. On when you want to have success with a. Garden one of the foundational things is the soil And it literally is the, foundation meaning it's the base that everything comes up out. Of but it is foundational when it comes to. Success

in terms of its, effect plants live in their. ROOTS i like to think of it that. Way you, know, yes there's green stuff on top of the, ground but the brown stuff below the, ground that's where the key to success. Happened now you need, sunlight yes you, do of, course but soil soil soil is where you. Start And Heirloom soils has built a wide variety of pride their product.

Selection you need to go see. It in, fact do this write Down heirloomsoils dot Com airloomsoils dot, com AND i want you to go look at the products that they have and the range of. PRODUCTS i, mean you can buy expanded shell from, them for, example you can buy composts of various. Types they have a rose and bloomers. Blend anything with flowers is this blend is great For they have a potting soil called The. Works they have

one Called cactus And Succulent. Mix while we were talking to someone earlier about growing some mom's eye and they were talking about putting some gritty material into the. Soil, well cactus and succulent From Airloom soils is a great. Mix they have a veggie and herb. Mix they've got a landscape bed or fruit berry and citrus, mix just on and, on and you can buy by the bag all over. Town they're widely. Available if you go To airloomsoils dot com you can find out where you can

Get airloom. Soils you can go pick it up bulk out there In, Porter. Texas you can have them deliver. It they can bring a dumpload and put it on your driveway and you can go to town. Boy i've done that several times building beds and. Things or they can bring out a supersac which is a. Qbicyard they set it on your. Driveway it's neat and, clean And

i've also that and it works really. Well whether it's leaf mole, composts maybe you're doing some top dressing or just using the quality leaf mole, compost you, know as an amendment in your, beds or as even as a mulch on the. Surface veggie and, urbanics same. Thing just got to give them a, call go go check them. Out heirloomsoils dot. Com find these quality products and start with them IF i could help you to have a success in one specific, way be before you buy a,

plant get the. Soil that doesn't mean you have to make two. Trips you can do them both at the same. Time most of our garden centers sew you these quality, products but soil, first plants, second so, important and so many people get that turned. Around you, know you go in and and this is true shoppers that they don't know about all the great garden centers that we have where you get good advice and where you get good, direction accurate, advice accurate. Direction you're at help and everything.

Else and they go grab some plant and they walk home and probably Bud dame a plant that needed to be planted, here you, know some place it sells all kinds of other, things and just the plant wasn't for them. Here but, anyway they come home with, it they look, around where AM i going to put? It they scratch weeds away and put it in the, ground and it

just from that point, on you're doomed to. Failure And i'm, Gonna i'm, Gonna i'm gonna drone on about that just a. Minute this is one of the, things in, Fact i'm gonna make a. Little we'll record this and put it On facebook coming up. HERE i think that's worth doing if you if you are going to have a total success with what you want a plant to, become whether it's a tomato production or whether it is a rose bloom production or anything like, that starting in the soil

and get that's soul right is just. Critical it's the foundation so important to. Do getting a plant that wants to be there and they wants to grow, here and a good quality home garden center is going to be able to provide you with. That we call Them mom And pops to call them independent garden. Centers they know what they're talking. About you hear me talk about them all the time here on Garden. Line they provide you the kind of plants and the kind of advice that

you need to. Do and when you do it that, way you just are set up for. Success and it is so important to, do AND i talk about it all the, time but it's because it is so. IMPORTANT i so many times see people that just plopped something on the ground and they're not, ready AND i, jokingly well half, jokingly, say we should have our legislature In texas pass a law that has a cooling off period for purchasing. Plants AND i know garden centers wouln't want

to hear it's a ridiculous. Idea but imagine that you go to a garden center and you have your, plants and you're about to check, out and they, say, okay have you prepared your, soil and, NO i, Haven't and they, Okay i'm gonna take this flat and set it here behind, me and you come back when your soil is ready and you can have your. Plants. YEAH i can hear screams of no out, there including from garden. Centers. Right but the point is this that the PLoP a plant

into an unprepared plot amounts to plant. Abuse The society for The prevention Of cruelty To plants asks me to tell, you don't do. That don't do, that prepare the, plants and then prepare the, soil and then put in those quality plants from our great independent garden centers that we. Have All, right, well there's. That if you heed that, advice you will you will do much much. Better. Now in, addition you, know when we say preparing the, soil we're

talking about not just loosening it. Up and adding organic, matter composted organic matter and. Quality you, know soil blends like the ones At heirloom SAUCE i was talking. About but preparing the soil is also putting in the nutrients that the plant. Needs you, know every soil is. Different soil is a bank account for. Nutrients it amounts to a bank, account and the plant makes with the draws every.

Day that's how that. Works so when that, plant any plant in your, yard from your turf grass to the rose bush and everything in, between today is its root system is taking up water and, nutrients and it needs certain things in certain. Amounts it doesn't need as much zinc as it needs, nitrogen it doesn't need as much boron as it needs potassium for. Example, okay but it needs them and it takes us up day by day by.

Day and it's like an eight making withdrawals from the soil of the specific nutrients it, needs and getting those right is so. Important And Nelson Plant food is an example of one of those fertilizers that knows how to blend the. Mixes for, example The bruces Brew brusus brew is something you put on your. LAWNS i can put on the plants if you, want but it about every six months and it gives you a quick green. Up but it has some forms of nitrogen that are gradually.

Released so if you dumped all of an immediately released fertilizer on your, ground the nutrient would be there for the, plant but two months from, now or three months from, now or or and so, on even weeks from, now it may be. Gone and so with a gradual release over, time you get that daily withdrawal from the plant. Ability and Now bruces brew has carbon based nitrogen. Sources they feed the microbes in the soil to really stimulate the

plant health and the success with the. Plant it's widely available all over The Greater houston area just to just look For bruce sprew it. Is it is a quality product that's kind OF i think of it as kind of being in the middle between a quick release and a slow. Release it's got a little bit of each in, it so you're gonna get the quick, benefit but you're

also going to get a gradual feeding out over. Time And nelson products are widely, available, again AS i, said in a lot of different places here in the, area so it's not hard to find. Them and It's. Bruss bruce is one of a whole bunch That Dean nelson and the team out there At Nelson fertilizer has put together that do have. Success i'm going to take a little break.

with us. Today by the, WAY i was talking about nutrients and things, earlier in the fact that bank account is an important. Concept your soil is a bank. Account and when the plant, goes when the plant root goes to the bank account and, SAYS i need some fill in the. Blank if it's not, there the plant can't. Grow it's as simple as. That some things are just needed in tiny, amounts like, boron for. Example you don't

need a lot of. It in, fact you put a lot of boron on you got a. Problem you can damage, things but you have to have, it and you need some of it there in the bank. Account and azamite is a, micronutrient a trace mineral. Supplement for just that, reason we put it, down not to make the grass just jump out of the ground and grow. Green we put it down so it's in the bank. Account so in that nitrogen and phosphorus and, potassium those three numbers on the bag when they're pushing that growth to go

that plant can take. Up in this case of my, example the boron, Now azamite contains a number of different trace. Minerals you can find mora At Azamite texas dot, Com azomite. Mite azamite widely available in garden centers and feed stores and ace hardware stores And southpus. Fertilizer you throw a rock and you can get a place with asimite near.

HERE i pulled up your your photos that you. Have uh so let's let's talk about. That you you had the grass in the. Yard go ahead and tell me a little bit more about the history of what you saw saw.

yeah go to gardening with skip dot. Com there's two free schedules to, download ones fertilizing your lawn and one of them is dealing with problems and this will be dealing with. Problems product Called barricade can prevent germination on the particular. Grass looking at the photo AS i, am it's Probably dallas. Grass it's not. Crabgrass it could. Be there are a couple of other grasses that look somewhat

Like dallas grass that's hard to. Kill and some of these are, perennials and so the grass is, there you, know and just a pre emergent doesn't kill it because the plant stays alive and pops back. Up the best way to control it is to wipe a herveside on the leaves of the grass without getting it on your. Lawn and also on my website is something like it

Says skip's weed, wiper and it's a little. Tool it's a grabber type tool with sponges on it that you can make homemade and just no time at, all and going through there and wiping it on that tall grass with the weed wiper will allow you to do that and it'll translocate down and kill. Those now you're gonna have to stay after it for a, while you, Know saturday, morning get out there a cup of coffee in one hand and the weed wiper in the other and do.

That but there's not a spray that won't kill your. Grass if to kill that grassy, WEED i see a little. BIT i THINK i see from a distance some annual bluegrass that germinated Last. October so when you download my schedules from gardening With skip dot, com you will see when to apply the barricade to help prevent that grassy. Weed those are the small tufts of grass and they have seed all over. Them, NOW i know you don't want to spend your your day out there on your

hands and. Knees but in my, yard when a few of those come, UP i JUST i drop down and you can dig that low clump out real. Easy and all the seeds that you pull up out of, there throw them in a bucket and get them out of the lawn or otherwise they'll be there for you next.

Call two eight one three three two sixteen twelve two eight one three three two one six one. Two let's see. Here, Okay jim go to gym In College. Station Hey, jim welcome to garden. Line how are you, Hi i'm, Good thank.

ready for a good hard coal. Snap and you had a pretty good one this year up, there but not like The december, one so there's a possibility that that could have. Happened, also you got it right next to the, pool and actually that pool is like the moisture. Hole water holes heat and slowly releases it through the, night and there is an effect of warming that can keep a plant in a not fully dormant state from. That

it's a strange, thing but it it. Happens you go up Into, michigan for, example and it's too cold to GROW i don't, know cherries or something, blueberries and right along the edge of the of The Great lakes And michigan they grow those because the lake effect makes enough difference for them to be able to grow something that the area is too cold. For, anyway that could be one reason your crape myrtle is not getting ready for the. COLD i realize it's been there a long, time so

why didn't this happen? Before it just the way the temperature. Drops the other possibility gym is going to be in the, roots and THAT i can't see in the photo any signs of. It the roses around it look, healthy So it's not like some poison got put on it. THERE i know that with pools and chlorination and, stuff sometimes we see some chlorine escape and problem with plants that it drifts up. Into BUT i don't see signs of that. Either so other than soggy wet conditions or, cold those

are the only two things crpe myrtles are. Tough IF i were, YOU i would do one or two. THINGS i would either cut it back to where there's living shoots coming, out or you can cut it back all the way and then there's a lot of new shoots come, out select however many you. Want usually people have about three trunks on a crape, myrtle and then they let those branch into more and let those branch into. More that would be my suggestion to go one of those two.

WAYS i think if you try to just cut it back to the, growth that's gonna look kind of.

you'll that tree will regrow pretty darn fast with all that. Vigor, Hey i'm about to get cut off by the music, here but good luck with, that and thank you for giving us a.

I'm excited but like all my poories that, always died they all. Came back all my all my milky that, always died they all. Came back plus the plants that normally come, back anyhow and in between all, of them here's this six inch tall little baby oak that's GROWING and I can't i can't dig. Them out they're too they're too deep because

they've several of them been there. For, years now WHAT can?

that's what you got there is. Woody, weed uh there's a there's an ingredient called triclop here T r i C l o P. Y, r now triclo peer is not something you want to get all over your lawn or in certainly, desirable plants but you can put it on a, weed WIPER and i show you how to make one there on on, the website there's also A Weed. Wipeer republic it's so easy to. MAKE it i mean it's not you don't even have to have tools really to.

Make it but is used. Triclop, here huh and on the on The Publication Controlling, woody weeds it tells you the names of brands Of tricle peer to look for when you. Go, shopping uh and then you just. Look fertilizing they're going to have all the brands on. The list. It's, southwest yeah. They will, and also by, The way bob's got the little grabber tool that you need to make the. Weed wiper he's got them on the wall there by

the tools. That southwest so get your weed wiper. Tool there all you need to add after that is some sponges AND then i use canning jar lids anything flat to hold. The sponge look at the publication they'll tell you how to.

a trunk. On IT then i would cut it off and dab the tracle paer right on the fresh, cut surface, right away not two, hours later, right away and that'll control any woody weed from poison ivy to, oak seedlings to pepperbne or whatever's.

on the. Weed wiper and again you walk through the lawn and you're just your arms just kind of hanging down by your side as you. Squeeze it you're not having to stoop. Or bend you're just wiping it, on anything sticking its face up above Your Your saint augustine lawn and and killing it. That way that's that's another option. For you what's this called? Grappy? Weeds, what sorry a? Grabber tool you mean.

GOOD night i went a little, Bit. Long donna you're first up when we. Come back, all right, Welcome back welcome back to the. Guard, Line hey i've got a great idea for this this beautiful weekend that we got. Going here if you've never Been By Arbigate, garden center you ought to check that place out it first, OF all i don't know how you avoided it up to, this LONG because i mean everybody in Town knows arbrogate

is like a destination gotta, go to gotta see. Garden center when you Go, into arbrogate you're going to get folks that, greet you that, help you that. Take time if you need some help like putting together maybe a multiplant container planting you want, to do or if you're just looking for a shrub that would be good for filling. The blank they'll walk you, over there they'll talk, to you they'll they'll, show you they'll, give you they take time.

With you it's the, bottom line and they know what they're. Talking about good advice is just. So important somebody called earlier about asking a question at a big box store, And listen i'm not going to go into my gripe session on. That now, but anyway bottom line is people at an independent garden Center, like arborgate they they, garden here they, live here they know, their stuff and that is. So important now when you, Go in first, of all

it's gonna. Be fun you need to take your friends because it is like going to A little i don't know what a botanical garden in, a sense and then all the plants, are there and yet at the same time blame everywhere for. Your garden it's just a fun place to walk, through, products, pots containers you. Name it everything you'd want Is at arburgate and a YEAR round i mean they're always. Keeping things, for example fruit trees they have the year, round there so whenever you want to,

get one you can go by there and. Get, it now when it comes, to color you're not gonna find a. Better place if you're looking for a, pollinator garden you want to build something for bees, or pollinators or maybe just, maybe butterflies or maybe to. Attract hummingbirds they've. Got it if you want art in, your GARDEN as, i said they got. The bling come on check. It out their rose selection. Is awesome but. Remember this when you Go to arbrogate number one park in the back You Take.

Treshel road it's a loop that goes Around to arburgate behind it in. The back go in that, parking lot, super safe, super easy, easy access. All weather. Number two pick up the Three bags Organic, Food complete Organic, soil complete and organic. Compost complete the organic food complete is for anything with roots and the soil and the compost there what you. WOULD expect a quality soil for, any

application a quality compost and both. Those too by, the way those last two have expanded shale, in them which our heavy clay. Soils Need Arbigate garden center is just a mile and a half west of two forty nine on twenty Nine. And tombol you need. TO go i promise you you'll have a. GOOD time i always DO when i go. In there we're going to head, out now and Talk. To Donna, hello donna and welcome To. Garden, line hi.

THE bag, i mean if you if you're if you're planting a lot of things and you need a lot of bed mix that you can get it. Bulked too but, UH yeah i would put. That down i'd put about maybe three or four inches down and then kind of mix it with the crummy claso. You have you don't have to like bend over and do all. The work just get a spading fork or and just crack the soil open a little so the good stuff falls down into the bad stuff a, little bit kind of created transitions.

they have, good sunlight, good drainage inadequate. Soil, moisture, Okay perfect thank you. SO much i appreciate that you bet you and get you while you're out about your get you a good roast. Feed too roses need need plenty of fuel because they put a lot of energy into making, Those blooms so don't don't let them. Go hungry give them a good boost of a good quality fertilizer and you'll have. Good success and then how often do you.

donna on. New growth they grow bloom at the end. Of shoots so if you have one shoot and you cut, it off you know you'll get like two or three sprouts that come out from where you cut, it, Off right and so what was one bloom stalk now can, be three two or three. Bloom stalks so each time you cut, them back you get more terminals and. More blooms That's why i'll DO the uh early or, late spring early, summer shureback and then late late. Summer, cheerback, okay.

have products that. ARE proven i mean they use a product that has a ten year guarantee because. It lasts you put it in, the soil, it lasts and they don't spray it all over everywhere and drench the. Whole property the little trench goes around the house and it shuts. Them down they can't, get through they can't get past that. Little trench and it's, the newest, highest tech most, high

efficiency super. Safety use it works well and shuts. Down, termites now maybe you're dealing them with roaches in, the house or silver fish or some other. Household pests they can take care. Of that maybe it's fiance in. The landscape maybe it's. Wild varmints, you know possums and things through around. At night, Wild rats that's another thing people don't think about. A lot they run around at. Night nocturnal they can deal. With that they know how to deal.

With that and maybe MOST interestingly i find as their approach to, mosquito control their mosquito bait buckets are. SUPER cool i did a Post On Facebook gardenline facebook a.

Mess Again so i'm not wheat cloth is not a panacea, for sure but those

would be. Your options, you know if, it's, annuals yes fry. The top if, it's perennials you're gonna have to have something translocate down to kill the. Whole wet is.

there are other. Brands though ace has ONE Called Ace concentrated weed And. Grass killer both, of those either of those products would kill whatever weeds are coming up and move down in the roots and kill.
