During the fall season and especially at this time of the year many questions come up on what should be done at this time of the year to get the garden ready for the winter. Is fall a good time to get rid of the weeds or should we wait until spring? Yes, the fall season is probably one of the best times to get rid of the weeds. The grass is growing strong and also the weeds. The only difficulty that I find in weed control in the fall is the weather. You need at least 24 hours without rain after the weed application. This is to let the weed killer lay on the blades of the weeds, which contains a hormone type material which will make the weeds grow faster than the roots can support which will kill the weeds. Now if you get rain this material will wash off the leaves of the weeds and then of course, your results will be minimal. Weed killers can be applied with several methods, the first is by spraying spraying the whole lawn, or you can apply a combination fertilizer and weedkiller with a lawn spreader. Most of the weedkillers weedkillers contain three ingredients, 2 4 D, Mecro-prop and Dicamba for the hard to kill weeds, and this combination is called Killex. When you get rid of the weeds in the fall you will have an excellent start on having a good lawn next year, and will probably only have to spray once during next year. What Kind of Protection Should My Roses have for the Winter? Over the years I have heard and seen many ways of protecting protecting the rose bushes. One of the things you should never do and that is to wrap the roses with any type of plastic, since the plastic will hold the heat of the sun during the day but will cool off very rapidly during the night, you will have no roses left in the spring that are alive. I always feel that we should use the natural way as much as possible in any garden application. This way is to take the soil which is around the rose bushes and bank them up to at least 10 inches, this will protect the bottom of the rose canes and will let the excessive water drain off the mound of earth. I have seen people put leaves around their roses and also straw or peatmoss, but all of these materials have a tendency to be very light, and will allow the mice to burrow in this covering which can cause a lot of damage. Another material that is natural and will give excellent results is to buy the composted manure which is available in bags, and use this for banking up of the rose bush. This has several benefits. First of all it packs nice and firm, it will enrich the soil so that the rose bushes will have a ready start in the spring, and it will also add humus to the soil for better growth next year. Now there are rose collars on the market which form a tube around the bush and the covering covering material can be put in the top and then watered in so that it will fit snugly around the canes. Roses should never be pruned back in the fall, this should be done in the spring, if you want to prune the heads off just to make the bush look neat and tidy for the winter, this can be done, but always leave at least 15 inches of cane sticking up. When you prune them too low the frost will kill back the canes and some will be killed all the way to the roots, which of course kills the plant. Climbers can be wrapped wrapped in burlap or cardboard boxes or take them off the trellis or wall and lay them down, and then cover the whole top with soil. Tree roses have to be completely taken out of the soil and bury them completely in the garden with at least four to five inches of soil to cover them. Until next week, happy gardening.
