Mulch tomatoes and revive old strawberry beds this season
Home gardeners should mulch tomatoes with straw lawn clippings or similar materials about two inches thick to conserve moisture and reduce cultivation. For old strawberry beds narrow rows to 12 inches, remove tops, and fertilize with 5-10-10 at 25 pounds per 1000 sq ft to spur runners and next spring yield. Also notes soil testing for fall seedings and hog cholera alert with symptoms and veterinary contact.
