Weeds, gardens, and prairie gardening tales
A long reader note covers weed management including back pack sprayers, historic weed outbreaks like knapweed and leafy spurge, and hope for early eradication. It mentions Operation Haylift, dangers of new weed seeds, and urges farmers to report new weeds. It also spotlights Joe Tsukamoto’s fall planting, late October sowing, and notes on prairie apple varieties and gardening books.
