TIMELY TIPS FROM DICK'S CORNER

ARE YOU PETUNIAS IN TATTERS?

The likely culprit is the geranium budworm, which adores petunias as much as its namesake geraniums. Luckily, spinosad-based products are effective against budworms and a wide variety of other larvae and caterpillars--and spinosad is organic too. Spray in the evening or very early morning when pollinating insects are absent. Look for Captain Jack's Deadbug Brew or Green Light's Lawn & Garden Spray with Spinosad. Another approach is to use a systemic insecticide on your non-food annuals. Systemic Insect Control by Bonide will knock back budworks, leafminers and thrips.

CAN'T KEEP UP WITH THE BINDWEED IN YOUR LAWN?

Bindweed may look dainty, but it stands up to the Colorado weather and poor soils with ease, so a lawn environment is heaven for it. We recommend Fertilome's WeedFree Zone or Ortho Weed B Gon MAX, which will not hurt your lawn while it attacks bind weed's root system. More than one application may well be needed.

CAN I START SEED NOW?

Absolutely!  Some spring-sown herbs bolt (go to seed) during summer heat, so a second sowing now will give you a fresh flush of cilantro, basil, dill, garden cress and parsley.

Cool-season vegetables, including spinach, lettuce, and Swiss chard will germinate well from late-summer sowings and bring delicious rewards quickly.  Lettuce ‘Red Sails’ and Mesclun ‘Q’s Special Medley’ are harvestable in 45 days. ‘French Breakfast’ radishes mature in only 28 days.  Scan our seed racks for zesty salad greens like arugula and mizuna, a type of mustard, which should be ready in just 30 days.  Sow ‘Early Wonder’ beets soon, and you may sneak in an extra crop in 48 days.  And don’t forget peas, the classic cool-season vegetable that is a breeze to grow from seed. 

MOSQUITO MISERY

Are you at your wits' end with mosquitoes in your yard? The first line fo defense is to eliminate any standing water, including in plant saucers and childeren's toys. Mosquito larvae develop in standing water. If you have a fish pond, your koi and goldfish may be eating the larave, but you may well want to add Bacillus Thuringenisis v. israelensis (Bt) to your pond or water feature. All those syllables identify a natural microorganism that will prevent the larvae from maturing--and it is not toxic to fish, birds or plants! We carry Mosquito Beater Bt in small, handy water soluble pouches to toss in your small pond, and Mosquito Dunks, which is Bt in a donut form.

If you have got mosquito breeding grounds in the area that you cannot control, (irrigation ditches, reservoirs and the like,) and you want to control the adult mosquitos on your property, Bonide's Mosquito Beater hose-end spray is a permethrin-based product. Be sure to spray in the evening or very early morning when bees and other beneficial insects are absent. A non-toxic alternative is Mosquito Beater/Garden Naturals repellant in granular form. Its' active ingredients are citronella, garlic, geranium, cedar and lemongrass oils.

LEAF-CUTTER BEES AND ROSES

Summer is high season for your roses, and also for leaf-cutter bee colonies busily rearing the next generation. You will know these beneficial insects have visited your roses by the tell-tale, neat, dime-size holes suddenly appearing on you rose foliage, although it is unlikely you will ever see the culprit in the act. This is a garden 'pest' we think of as a garden 'pet!' Pollinating bees of many species are under great stress in the West, so Tagawa hopes you will let these shy, industrious bees go about their lives unharmed. Do take a close look at your rose leaves--the bees take a tidy bite and leave the rest of the leaf untouched, so it can continue to nourish you rose.

TAGAWA'S PROUDLY SUPPORTS AND CARRIES BREAST CANCER PINK PRODUCTS!
