Not only that but it could mean a beautiful yard that attracts more birds, butterflies and small animals by providing shelter and natural food. The typical yard consisting of a large carpet of thick green grass, several trees and a flower garden can be wasteful, desolate, and boring to look at. It requires weekly mowing, heavy watering, and pesticides and herbicides. (chemicals that are harmful to our water systems and ecological health). This approach to yard care is wasteful, harmful to the environment and cumbersome. Try taking a more natural approach to yard care. Here are some hints: Lawn Care Water tips A healthy lawn only needs 1 inch of water a week. Less if it has some shade and is established. Its best to water your lawn all at once to promote strong deep roots. Check the weather forecast. You don't need to water if it rains.

Products From Dead Or Dying Yard Trees- Tree Care: Minnesota DNR Information for landowners about the different wood products they can make from their dead or dying oak, elm, and other trees from the Minnesota Department of Natural Resources.

Maintenance Products from dead or dying yard trees What products can you get from dead or dying trees in your yard? Every type of wood has its good points and its bad points. Elm dries quickly, making it good for firewood; red oak works well for interior cabinets or paneling; white oak, a rot-resistant wood, can be used for boats, posts, or outdoor construction. Wood products you could make from your removed trees: Firewood Firewood is a common use of dead or dying trees. This is a good idea if your trees are small, crooked, or you have leftover limbs and scraps from making other wood products. You should dry firewood before you use or sell it. Oak should be dried for two years because it looses moisture slowly. Elm needs to dry one year. The drier the wood the cleaner it burns. NOTE: Firewood cut from fresh trees or trees recently infested by insects and disease can contribute to the spread of pests to nearby healthy trees. Because of this, many communities have ordinances to guide you in storing your firewood. If your community has no ordinances, treat your firewood by (1) removing the bark while the log is still green, or (2) cut the tree into firewood lengths and stack so both ends of the log are exposed to good air flow for faster drying. For fresh green wood from April 15 until July 1, totally cover the pile with heavy plastic (4-6 mil) taking care to bury the edges of the tarp with soil.

E-Mail This Article Printer-Friendly Version Other Resources More from The LazyHomeowner Visit the Lazy One's Site.... by The Lazy Homeowner I'm Fed Up With Yard Care Myth-Information! and Martha Stewart gets my goat too.... Don't carry myths around with you when doing yard care and gardening Gardening and lawn care have long been a compost heap of myths, nearly all of them questionable, if not downright erroneous. Here are a few to watch out for: "Lawn mower manufacturers create five height settings on lawn mowers so that I can opt for the lowest setting and ignore the other four the entire rest of my life." Seriously, that's what must be going through the heads of homeowners who commit the number-one mistake in lawn care: mowing one's lawn too short. I have a guy down the road from me with an enormous lawn that he cuts with a rider set so low the grass blade is cut to around half an inch. I'm surprised he hasn't taken the tires off his tractor and tried running it on the hubs to get an even closer shave. Want another key benefit? Consider that you should only remove 1/3 of the grass blade when you mow. Cut any more and it stresses the plant. Well, if my neighbor is cutting his lawn to one inch, he has to cut it when it grows to an inch and a half, if he hopes to maintain his status as Lawn God Of Western Deephaven. His lawn will grow that half an inch in just more than two days during times grass is most active. So he gets to mow his lawn two and even three times a week.

14. Spring Yard Care Nonflowering trees and shrubs generally do not need to be fertilized every year. This is a very general plan for taking care of your yard. http://www.emmitsburg.net/gardens/articles/frederick/2003/spring_yard_care.htm

Spring Yard Care Phyllis Heuerman Frederick County Master Gardener Program Spring is late this year and many gardening chores that we normally start in March may have to wait until April. However, don't worry about it. Nature has a way of catching up. And, with the wet winter we have had, we can anticipate a glorious gardening season this year. The first thing I must say, is don't rush things. You will do more harm than good if you try to walk on soggy lawns and gardens, or turn over soil that is too wet. You will compact the soil and destroy its texture. Instead of sloshing around out there, take this time to do some planning and preparation. Decide upon the plan of your vegetable garden, and decide what new plants you will add to your ornamental garden. Check all of your tools and your lawn mower. If you did not do it in the fall, clean your tools and have them sharpened. Clean and tune up your lawn mower, and sharpen the blades. If it is not too wet, begin turning your compost piles. Once your yard has dried up, you can prune shrubs and trees that need attention, except those that bloom in the spring. Spring-blooming shrubs should be pruned right after they bloom. You should also start to clean your garden of debris. Remove leaves, trash and any extra mulch you put over plants for winter protection. Once it starts to turn green, rake your lawn to remove dead grass, leaves, etc.

He had suffered a grave illness leaving his young trees root bound in plastic growing bags. Some were beyond hope, but many - like the pines and maples - had become bonsai-like nearly on their own.

Search nsrp.bc.ca What is natural lawn care? Quite simply, it is caring for your lawn with nature in mind: mowing without catching the clippings or raking and bagging them; using biological pest control methods rather than synthetic pesticides and herbicides; reducing water use; planting waterwise plant species; and/or replacing traditional lawn with alternate groundcovers that work just as well with much less care (and waste). Interested in finding out more? Order the GVRD's Natural Lawn Care brochure or give the NSRP a call ( ). If you're interested in trying a new way of caring for your lawn, try your hand at grasscycling first. Just ask us or your lawn-care specialist how to convert your mower to a mulching mower or trade in your conventional mower for a specialized electric mulching mower, which actually cuts the grass blades into the tiniest of pieces then blows them deep down into your lawn, providing a free, mulching fertilizer. The benefit is less mess, less air pollution, and a healthier lawn. Better yet, get in on the resurgence in push mower use - they are quiet, fairly inexpensive compared to power mowers, and they do just as good a job, particularly in smaller lawn areas! Once you've mastered the art of leaving your clippings on the lawn, you can try your hand at the other steps in Natural Lawn Care. Following are 6 simple steps to help you make the move to a more natural lawn care program: Mow High, Mow Often and Leave the Clippings:
