  • Scout your garden at least twice a week for insects and disease
  • Be cautious with weed killers that provide several months of control. They can damage trees and shrubs through root uptake. Check the instructions and stay the recommended distance away.
  • Keep up with your weeding. Small weeds are much easier to control.
  • Harvest herbs frequently.
  • Attention: Beekeepers You may want to construct electric fence to protect hives from Bears
  • For cut flowers, harvest early in the day, keep cool, place in water ASAP, select newest fully expanded blossoms.
  • Honey bees are still swarming if you see a swarm call Cooperative extension 252-438-8188
  • Protect yourself from ticks and mosquitos.
  • Keep your garden journal updated. You are getting busier each day in the garden and you need to record what you have done in the garden each day.

  • 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.
