Gardening

July/August - The first thing I would like to say is,

“TURN YOUR SPRINKLER TO THE OFF POSITION”!  

We have had good rains and good growing conditions this spring. Keep your garden cultivated, removing unwanted weeds, and water when necessary. I will usually go 3-7 days between waterings. I occasionally hand water plants that need that extra bit of watering during the week. This saves me money and water by not turning the whole system on. This also gives me time to walk my garden looking for things out of the ordinary, weeds, disease and/or insects. 

Victoria Sage with Grey Santolina

Post-emergence or spraying broadleaf weeds can be done in July. This gives the primary grasses at least a month to recuperate before fall arrives.

Dallisgrass, Crabgrass, Nutgrass, and Spurge can be controlled with MSMA. Nutgrass and Virginia Button Weed can be controlled with Image.

PLEASE follow label instructions.  DO NOT use MSMA on St. Augustine grass.

Plantings to enjoy -

Starting a fall garden is usually planted in July. Tomatoes, okra, and peppers are good choices for the fall garden. They will start producing in September
