A Quick Buzz...

Issue: 27 September 16th, 2013

Greetings from Beiers!

Dear ,

It's that time of year again--

the cool, crisp air tells us that

Summer is coming to an end and it

is time to embrace Fall!

This is it!

FINAL WEEK

at Beier's !!

Please watch for our next email!

It will be our last until next Spring!

Owner's

Blake & Bonnie's Grandson,

Karsten helping Daddy!

Could he be

any cuter??

Bonnie and Blake are patiently waiting the arrival of their new granddaughter, supposedly coming to brighten our world September 23rd!

Hopefully she will arrive before our last email, or you will see her in the Spring!

While some might consider September the end of another gardening season, it might also be considered a beginning for enjoying the harvest of the garden or planning next year's activities. This time of year you may notice some central themes helpful in remembering seasonal garden and yard care tips, such as: watering, cleaning up, moving, harvesting, and preparing for next season, just to name a few. As always, this September gardening list is far from all-encompassing, yet a good reminder of where to start.

Watering

Providing adequate water in fall is especially

critical for increasing plant survival in winter and providing year-round health:

Help your plants prepare for the long winter by adequately watering plants. This is especially true for trees and shrubs planted in the last few years.
Provide these plants 1-1.5" water per week.
Continue watering your plants right up until the ground freezes.

Cleaning Up
A little clean up now can prevent a lot of

weed and disease problems in the future.

Remove weeds and diseased plant materials from your gardens.
Do not compost diseased plant materials in your home compost.
Remove overripe fruits from plants or the garden so as not to encourage insects or other stray critters.

Moving plants

Plant newly purchased perennial, trees, and shrubs.
Make sure to provide adequate water through the fall.
After the ground starts to freeze, add a 6-8" layer of mulch around your new plants.
Plant spring flowering bulbs.
Plant grass seed. To view your lawn care checklist for late summer- early fall: CLICK HERE
Now is the time to divide and move peonies.
To learn when your perennials should be divided: CLICK HERE
Bring in tropical houseplants and tender bulbs.

Harvesting & Storing

For information on storing home produce: CLICK HERE
Apples are ripe when the starches have converted to sugars- you can feel the starch on your teeth when you bite into an unripe apple. Just because it's red doesn't mean it's ripe.

Preparing for next season

Take notes and or pictures about what worked and what didn't work this year. You will thank yourself next year when your notes help provide you clues about what to plant or not to plant, when to apply certain gardening methods, or pest control methods.
