Tips To Cook Can Or Freeze Spaghetti Squash
Gardening notes describe spaghetti squash as a four to eight pound ivory winter squash. It covers baking at 350 degrees for 1 to 1 1/2 hours, steaming, boiling, canning in pints or quarts with specified salt and pressure times, and freezing after cooking and mashing.
Time To Seed Lawns and Fight Mites This Fall
Larry Leuthold from Kansas State advises fall overseeding of cool season lawns to outcompete weeds. Prepare existing lawns by mowing, raking, and fertilizing, then seed at right angles and keep surface moist. Also notes two spotted spider mite outbreaks in hot dry weather and recommends Kelthane or Diazinon with thorough multi spray coverage.
