Gardening Checklist

August 21-27, 2009

Prepare the garden for winter vegetables by removing all spent summer vegetables.
For larger blooms from chrysanthemums this fall, disbud them now. Also stake and tie the plants to prevent drooping and breaking.
Plant early flowering sweet peas for an abundance of flowers during the holidays.
Treat Walnut husk fly with applications of Malathion and spreader sticker.
Words of warning: with soaring temperatures do not leave plant material in a hot car for even fifteen minutes. Make the garden center your last stop on the way home, or make arrangements for delivery.
