KENTUCKY LAWN & GARDEN TIPS

Kentucky Bob Says :   Bugs are here!!!!!!! check your trees shrubs and flowers. Aphids and white flies really bad now. Check the underside of the plant leaves

Don't wait too late till after you start to see crabgrass, then it's too late for pre emergence control

Have you ordered plants from mail order and received bare root with no soil ?  These are O. K. as long as they are dormant.  Plant right away if possible. Soak roots for 24 hours in water just before planting.  If you can not plant right away be sure to heal them into the soil until you can.

  A great way to improve 90% of all our lawns is to increase the PH by liming with pelleted lime at the rate of two 40# bags per 1000 square feet.

Having trouble with getting grass under your trees? Most of the time tree roots cause poor stands of grass. The tree roots absorb most of the moisture and plant food needed by the grass to grow. Ivy or rock beds around the base of large trees can be very attractive and long lasting.
