Home And Garden Show 10-20-21
On the Home and Garden Show with Vance Co. Cooperative Ext.
THIS WEEK IN THE GARDEN:
- Prevent any weeds from going to seed in your garden
- Build a small cold frame and enjoy fresh greens through the winter.
- Please compost leaves this year. They are a valuable compostable source to increase organic matter for your garden soil.
- If you have leftover garden seed, get it organized. Store in fridge for best results.
- If your lawn seems to have been scratched up with large holes in it you may have a skunk eating white grubs in your lawn. You can use motion sensor lights to scare the skunk away at night. Also use a grub control product to kill the white grubs in your lawn.
- Plant bulbs for early spring blooms. Look for large bulbs that are free of decay. Do you need bone meal?
- Soil samples are still free of charge to avoid the rush bring your samples to Cooperative extension today.
- Take stock of your pest control products and be certain they are safely stored for the winter.

Garden Chat Series Offers Tips, Suggestions For Gardeners’ Fall, Winter Tasks
The Vance/Warren Master Gardener℠ volunteers will host a series of “garden chats” for local gardening enthusiasts. The virtual, interactive lecture series is titled “Fall & Winter: The Most Important Gardening Season.” The first session is Thursday, Oct. 21 and begins at 2 p.m.
The gardening tasks of the fall and winter seasons set the stage for a beautiful and productive garden over the following spring and summer, and this educational series will provide step-by-step guidance to achieve success, according to information from Paul McKenzie, agricultural extension agent for Vance and Warren counties.
Topics include Trees & Shrubs for Birds and Pollinators, Fall Garden Chores, Vegetable Garden Season Extension, Pruning and more. All sessions will use the Zoom video conferencing platform, which is a free download for computers, smartphones and tablets.
This is a free series, but registration is required. Sign up for all sessions, or choose specific topics of interest. For more information and to register, visit http://go.ncsu.edu/mgchat. For details, contact McKenzie at paul_mckenzie@ncsu.edu, 252.438.8188 or 252.257.3640.
