Vermont Home Gardener: September Garden Tips Gardens are now heading into the season finale with harvests of almost everything. Dry weather has been hard on many veggies and flowers but extra mulching and watering can keep plants healthy. This is a good time of year to apply foliar compost tea and your own homemade biofertilizers (see July article online). Tomatoes, peppers, broccoli, and cabbage will do well if you follow a few basic tips to extend the season as described in the full article. Late summer pests & diseases are appearing too so be alert and see my tips in the article. Soil Testing is a simple and important task we all should do this time of year so you know what is needed for next year. Fertilizing your soil without a soil test is like taking medications without knowing what, if anything, is wrong. Bad idea and possibly a waste. The University of Vermont Extension service provides a good soil analysis and recommendations report. Get their simple directions online here, mail in your dry soil sample (1/2 cup) in a clean plastic bag with $17 and they will send you the information by email or regular post to make your garden or lawn better. Make more Compost! This time of year we have an abundance of ingredients for the compost bins. Old garden plants, grass clippings, fruit & veggie scraps, and autumn leaves (soon) all produce great soil amendments. Here is a comprehensive website to all things compost.
| | | | Maple Monday! Happy Labor Day and welcome to the start of a new week and a new month. Maple syrup is not just for pancakes ... or is it?! We've shared many recipes with you every week. Main dishes, appetizers, and desserts. But let's be honest, there's nothing like a plate of fluffy pancakes surrounded by the sweet taste of our maple syrup! This Buttermilk Pancake recipe is a staple in our house. It has never let us down. It's so easy and so yummy, you'll want pancakes for dinner too! Try adding blueberries or mini chocolate chips, both additions are delicious. Did you know you can order our award-winning, wood-fired maple syrup from our website? You certainly can! Shop anytime day or night. Bring a taste of Vermont maple into your home. You shop, we'll ship! |
