Let’s Talk Gardens Weeds, Mulching and Top Dressing Tips
Horticulturist Ben Vance of Iowa State college says gardens excel now but weeds do too. Control them early before they crowd plants. When cultivating be careful not to damage shallow feeder roots. Mulching can replace cultivation and top dress the vegetable patch with high nitrogen fertilizer such as WW10-10, 12-1242, or 10-64 at 1 pin t o 50 feet of row. Work into topsoil 1/2 inch deep and keep fertilizer off leaves and stems.
