Humic to Break Down Thatch in Lawn
Humic acid is a wonderful soil conditioner for our soil. It breaks down organic matter and returns it to the soil making nutrients more available to plants. You can use it on the lawn this time of year as a substitute for power raking. Humic will help break down thatch and although it's not a fertilizer you will see your lawn green up due to nutrients being returned to the soil.

We have only heard of minor damage on bedding plants, but trees were slightly damaged. Trim any branches that are broken and spray a small amount of pruning sealer on the tree's fresh cut. Just a reminder that if you applied a pre-emergence in mid March or April, it’s time to reapply this product to keep from getting weeds sprouting up later in the summer. It is also time to reapply fertilizer to the lawn to help it keep that deep green color and to help thicken up the roots. We still have a large selection of bedding plants. We received a large shipment of tomatoes, peppers plus many melons and cucumbers. Stop by and see the flowers that are available. Also please note that we will be closed Monday for Memorial Day as well as Mondays moving forward. Have a great weekend.

Spring is springing and the temperatures are looking good, if only the wind would stop blowing. Most lawns are starting to look pretty green. If yours still has a few yellow patches, wait a couple more weeks before worrying too much.
Our greenhouse is starting to fill up with veggie plants! We have a good selection of tomatoes and peppers in 6-packs. Annual flowers are starting to show up as well, including quite a few hanging baskets already...
Now is a good time to start thinking about fertilizing your trees and shrubs. Jirdon Tree & Shrub Fertilizer is our favorite because it has a great formula for our region and encourages strong and steady growth...
Well after telling you last week we weren’t getting our trees in until late April, we got surprised by our largest order of trees showing up early. This order includes almost all of the fruit trees we will be getting this year...
