i home and garden 83 miswers iibi tte grw wednesday april 27 1983 md9 fi fiut j- jis r rhododendrons and azaleas are a group of plants many people assume are- hard to grew they require an acid soil but that is not too difficult to provide says burke- mcneill ontario ministry of agriculture and food nursery and ornamental specialist with this one requirement satisfied rhododendrons are easy to grow and provide a beautiful show each year in late may and early june many books about these plants suggest mixing peat moss and soil 5050 to provide the proper medium rhododendrons prefer an acid soil that is a ph below the 60 level as most peat is acid ph anywhere from 45 to 60 depending on the source mixed 5050 with soil will adjust the ph to the proper level for optimum growth but mcneill says rhododendrons will also grow well in a raised i bed of straight peat moss he says mixing topsoil with the peat is not necessary the- other requirements for successful rhododendron and azalea production are shade and shelter rhododendrons grow naturally under trees and so prefer the shade of trees or a location on the north or east side of a building mcneill says they will also grow and flower in full sun but do much bet ter where shade can be provided once the plants are established they require little at tention he says an annual application of fer tilizer in the spring and regular watering during hot dry periods are all that is re quired removing dead flower heads im proves vigor of the plant and encourages flower bud formation for next year if plants are exposed to wind some winter protection shoum de provided spruce boughs for example are excellent for this purpose mcneill says new satellite dish 3iij receives 108 channels fi area residents can now receive satellite ron

taverns to use the systems that ruling viewing and virtually no advertising v was made about one month ago ron skelly of markhamelectronics prior to that time it was only legal for said the system is based on a special type residential use and because of the cost of of aerial a 10foot satellitedish which- the system from 3995 to 8000 the sys- picks up the air waves from 11 of the 15- stationary us satellites each satellite has the capacity for 24 channels but mr skelly said the system supplies the 108 really good ones markham electronics is now installing singleuser systems from channel master and multiuser systems from general in strument cm peterson company of toronto began selling the satellite equip ment last september mr skelly began working for the company in november and is now marketing the systems in york re- gion the singleuser system consists of the dish a mount for the dish a receiver and the antenna controller mr skelly ex plained in an interview that the dish is mounted in the back yard rather than on the roof because it takes a lot of wind the toronto company began manufac turing the systems in anticipation of a crtc decision making it legal for com- tem was not in demand the whole mar ket is brand new said mr skelly he said his customers are advised to spend 4500 because the 3995 system does not have an antenna controller and therefore there are not as many channels available he said the receiver is of very high quality and the mount can withstand 100 mile per hour winds you can cut costs but wedontdo that he explained we may lose business but we chose to sell a high quality product the multiuser system is only 1000 per house there is one stationary dish for all houses so the residents must decide on which three channels they want to receive in both types of system it is possible to switch back to regular programming the newlyfounded canadian pay tv is on a different frequency so it is not avail able on satellite tv but american pay tv
