Here are a few timely tips on "Keeping over bulbs and tubers: (1) Tuberous Begonias - after heavy frost, dig up tubers and bring inside to drip. When the stems and soil are dry enough to move easily, dust with a fungicide and store in a little peat moss in a cold room. Same procedures for gladiolus and dalhias. Use old nylons or pantyhose to hold onions for drying and to prevent prevent losses from sunflower heads by covering them with a nylon, so ' birds can't get at them. While hoeing or cleaning up your garden, remember to stand straight! If you need to bend over, do so with the knees bent, yôur back will survive survive longer. An application of fertilizer containing containing nitrogen, phosphorus and potassium in a 4:1:2 .ratio in late August to Mid September will stimulate healing and fall growth in your lawn. A second application of fertilizer in late October to early November should contain a high percentage of nitrogen (even 100% nitrogen). This is called a "winterizer" or dormant application. application. By dividing your fall fertilizer application, the homeowner can maintain the green colour of his lawn until snowfall and prompt the colour to return quickly the following following spring, Late summer and early fall are the best times to seed a lawn, because the cool weather will encourage good rooting. This will also give the grass a chance to become well-established before winter. By giving the plants a chance to become well-rooted, they will be more tolerant of drought and heat next summer.
