Time is running out to take out the grubs in your yard! Mid September is prime time to treat your lawn for Springtime grub problems, before they retreat deeper into the soil. Treating grubs in Fall can be a preventative measure that helps keep your lawn both green and healthy.

Lawn aeration loosens the soil to help air, water, and nutrients get to the grass roots. But how do you know when your lawn needs this? Click the link to see if your answer is correct! http://www.lawndoctor.com/blog/beautiful-grass/

With Autumn comes variations in weather, warmth, and tons of other variables. Timing when you should treat your lawn can be difficult, and if done too early or too soon, can be a waste of time and energy.

Howdy neighbors. #DidYouKnow that during the 1700s there were no markets containing fresh produce?! Without the luxury of corner stores, American colonists relied on productive home gardens as a means for survival. Small, personal, and enclosed gardens located right outside the front door were dedicated to essential edibles and culinary and medicinal herbs.

Happy yet-another #TipTuesday!! Do you have Eastern US acid-loving plants -- pH level of 5.5 to 6.5 -- such as hydrangeas, azaleas, rhododendrons, camellias, heathers, gardenias and even blueberries? Use leftover tea and coffee grounds to acidify the soil. Sprinkle the grounds among the plants; about one-quarter of an inch onto the soil once a month should do the trick. The grounds will keep the pH of the soil on the acidic side.... Visit more here: https://www.gardeningknowhow.com//s/acid-loving-plants.htm

Oh snap it's #TipTuesday! #DidYouKnow you can prevent dirt from getting under your fingernails when you're all up in your garden? All you have to do is draaaggg your fingernails across a soap bar before gardening to seal the underneath of your nails. When you're done with the mud, just take a tweezer (or shower) to scrape out the soap from your nails and *BOOM*, clean fingernails!
