Garden Health & Seed Saving The rainy weeks of August have promoted plant diseases, weeds, and some pests. As harvesting of onions, potatoes, tomatoes, and other vegetables continues it's important to practice prevention to limit damage from plant pests and diseases to our hard-earned harvests. While harvesting veggies, herbs, and flowers is the best part of gardening, don't overlook another crop you might want to gather… seeds for next year. If you've grown peas, beans, tomatoes, or lettuce these are the easiest to save and assure you will have good seeds for next year. There are many advantages to saving your own seeds and it's very satisfying to see your plants through from generation to generation. Sort of like your botanical grandchildren. It's also time to harvest some herbs like basil and dill seeds, plant some more salad greens (but not bulbs or garlic yet) and learn about a new way to identify wildflowers and weeds.
