Dormant change in plants as weather turns cold
County Agricultural Agent explains that plants slow growth and enter dormancy with lower temperatures. He warns on September fertilizing, notes alfalfa and clovers benefit from potash and phosphorus without nitrogen, and urges careful lawn care and watering of evergreens to prevent spring damage. He stresses rapid adoption of new farming methods and ongoing education for all ages.
