Even during the COVID-19 pandemic, mosquitoes are such a serious health threat that the week of June 21-27, 2020 was declared Mosquito Control Awareness Week.Summit Chemical Company was founded over 45 years ago by Lawrence Kase, an expert in food technology with a master's degree in microbiology. The discovery of a unique species of bacteria, Bacillus thuringiensis ssp. israelensis (Bti), led the company to develop a sustained-release mosquito larvicide that killed the larvae before they became flying, biting adults.Bill Stengel, Summit Responsible Solutions national sales manager, tells us all about the Mosquito Dunks®, an effective mosquito control that does not harm the environment as well as other effective products to control garden pests.Join our gardening podcast and radio show Garden America LIVE every Saturday from 8-10 AM Pacific Time on Facebook.

In February, California gardens are a testament to the state's unique climate, offering a vibrant tableau despite the winter season. While much of the country shivers under a blanket of snow, California's milder temperatures allow a variety of plants to flourish. Winter-blooming flowers like camellias add splashes of color. Citrus trees, heavy with fruit, stand as bright beacons in the soft winter light, and succulents continue to thrive, adding texture and interest. Gardeners might also tend to cool-season vegetables such as kale, chard, and broccoli, which thrive in the cooler weather. The February garden in California is a busy place, with preparations underway for spring plantings, pruning of dormant trees, and the ongoing joy of harvesting winter crops, making it a dynamic and rewarding time for garden enthusiasts.Resource Links Mentioned During The Show:https://www.fertilome.com/ https://www.gardenamerica.com/tropical-costa-rica-trip-with-garden-america/ Join our gardening podcast and radio show Garden America LIVE every Saturday from 8-10 AM Pacific Time on Facebook.

Have lawns in California been disparaged unfairly? Grass absorbs greenhouse gas and converts it into life-giving oxygen. It does this at a much higher rate than native plants because grass has a higher leaf density and a faster growth rate. A 2500-square-foot lawn converts enough carbon dioxide into oxygen to sustain a family of four! Grass also absorbs particulates and some of the worst atmospheric pollutants such as sulfur dioxide and ozone. In this episode, we discuss the problems or potential of lawns in California with John Domenici from Southland Sod.Resource Links Mentioned During The Show:Southland SodFun Gardener Personality QuizCosta Rica Trip with Garden AmericaFertilomeGarden America PodcastsJoin Garden America LIVE every Saturday from 8-10 AM Pacific Time.

As our gardens move into the cooler parts of the year many plants may be infected with fungal or bacterial diseases.

October gardens stand as a poignant testament to nature's ever-evolving canvas. As the fiery hues of autumn begin to adorn the trees, the garden transitions from the exuberance of summer to a quieter, more reflective phase. Many perennials are putting on their final show, while fall-blooming plants like chrysanthemums and asters burst forth in a symphony of color. Vegetables like pumpkins, squashes, and root crops await harvest. The cooling temperatures beckon gardeners to prepare for the impending winter: collecting seeds, mulching, and ensuring that the soil and its inhabitants are ready for the colder months ahead. Amidst this change, the October garden offers a serene retreat, a place of beauty and contemplation, and a reminder of nature's eternal cycles. Tiger is bringing in different gourds to discuss on this week's show.

In the early 1980s, Gregg Lowery's passion for old roses began to develop into one of the world's great collections. The rose collection was developed through gifts of plant material from then still-existent old gardens or small nurseries in the United States, from cuttings propagated from old plants discovered in California and other states at abandoned homesteads, old cemeteries and the like, and by purchasing and importing cultivars no longer available elsewhere from specialized nurseries abroad. His love of old roses resulted in documented inventories of 5,412 named cultivars. The Friends of Vintage Gardens is a volunteer organization that is working to inventory all remaining plants and to obtain replacements for lost specimens deemed worthy of continued representation in the collection. In this episode, Gregg will let us know about worldwide preservation efforts and his rose adventures in Belgium and Germany this summer.Resource Links Mentioned During The Show:The Friends of Vintage RosesFetilomeListen To Gardening PodcastsLandscape Designers in San DiegoDigital Marketing Agency in San DiegoJoin Garden America LIVE every Saturday from 8-10 AM Pacific Time.

Kim Rupert's initial affection for gardening grew out of his experiences in his mother's garden. Leaving Alabama, he eventually established his home in the Los Angeles area in the late 1960's. And the urge to create his own garden began to develop. In the early 1980's he volunteered at the Huntington Rose Garden, helping to propagate rare and unusual roses, and soon was collecting roses of his own for the same purpose.Today, Kim will share with our listeners a valuable online resource for information on roses, clematis and peonies. The Help Me Find website contains no advertising and is completely run by volunteers.

Victoria Beeler is a butterfly enthusiast who enjoys gardening, wildlife, nature, and learning. She and her family have raised Monarchs - from eggs to caterpillars, to chrysalis, and to emerging butterflies - in an outdoor butterfly garden habitat at home near Atlanta for the first time last fall and then released them into the wild to migrate!Victoria has written a documentary book about her Monarch experience with raising and releasing them. In her book, she combines photos of the Monarchs’ life stages and personal knowledge about Monarchs with the science. The butterflies' legacy can be continued by planting native milkweed. Monarchs have also inspired Victoria to give native milkweed seeds as gifts (seeds of hope) to family and friends and Monarch books to children in the community to save and protect Monarchs and continue their legacy.

Quantum Microgreens was started by my husband and I in early 2017. I had been practicing law with a non-profit legal services organization, Learning Rights Law Center. I’d started with the non-profit, while I was still in law school at Loyola Law in Los Angeles. After a few years of practicing, I left to work for a Native American Tribe in Northern California and then circled back around to do work again for Learning Rights. I primarily practiced special education law, representing students with disabilities and their parents. Though I was very passionate about helping special needs students with their legal struggles, I realized that it was time for a change. My husband, ever so supportive, pushed me to think about what I really wanted to do. Actually, what I wanted to do made no sense– I wanted to spend time working with my hands in nature. Particularly, growing food. But, moving to the country and starting a farm just did not make sense for us. Not only that, but I didn’t picture myself kneeling through rows of crops.Resource Links Mentioned During The Show: Quantum MicorgreensRoot WarriorSan Diego Gardeners & LandscapingSan Diego Website DesignerJoin Garden America LIVE every Saturday from 8-10 AM Pacific Time.

Living in Seattle, Washington, one block from the year-round high-stall Pike Place Market, Taunya Miller found a nexus of artisans, fishmongers, cheese and wine shops, and local farmers that changed my concept of fresh food forever. "Even as the days and years passed by, the farmers were always there for me but I began to take them for granted. Ho-hum. Should I begin tonight's dinner with a wild caprese salad with Green Zebra and KBX yellow heirlooms or a tossed Almond Mandarin with fresh greens? Then my boss transferred me and in a click of my heels, it was all gone and suddenly I was on my own. My cravings for Pike's Market fare (You're not in Seattle anymore, Taunya) turned into a vision of responsibility to grow as much as my own food as possible."Root Warrior introduces a central aeration chamber to eliminate the anaerobic bacteria (dead zone) in the center of pots and grow bags... others aerate from the container walls or not at all. No other product channels oxygen to the root systems in pots, containers, grow bags, and raised bed gardens. Because our aeration chamber is angled at 15 degrees, it also mitigates excessive soil compaction, improving airflow. Works wonders in Raised Beds. Indoor/Outdoor. Year Round. 100% Food Safe.
