  • Scout your garden at least twice a week for insects and disease
  • When it comes to irrigation, don’t follow a schedule. Timing should be based on soil moisture, temperature, plant performance, etc.
  • Keep up with your weeding. Small weeds are much easier to control.
  • Shape up azaleas now that they are done blooming.
  • Attention: Beekeepers You may want to construct electric fence to protect hives from Bears
  • If you’d like to help pollinators, take note through the summer when there is a shortage of blooming plants in your landscape. Make plans to fill those gaps by adding plants that bloom in those gap times.
  • Honey bees are still swarming if you see a swarm call Cooperative extension 252-438-8188
