Seasonal TipsHelpful ideas from the professionals

Benefits of Aeration

• Thatch management increases activity of microorganisms needed to decompose thatch by bringing them from the soil to the surface.
• Relieves soil compaction which allows deeper water and nutrients penetration.
• Works well with overseeding by giving the seed a good growing environment.
• Encourages healthy root zone activity.

Protection

• Mulching around plants at a 2" - 3" depth will help to retain soil moisture.
• Use burlap or other wind breaks where plants are in very exposed wind tunnels.
• Provide proper nutrients to the plant to keep them as healthy and vigorous as possible. Root fertilization in the fall is ideal for this.
• Plant hardy trees and shrubs in areas desirable to their conditions.
• Prune injured or dead branches in spring.

Sun Scald

Sun scald occurs when plant tissue is frozen and the sun heats the tissue above the freezing mark. When temperatures of the plant tissue drop below freezing again, sun scald can occur. This usually occurs when this cycle is repeated over several days. Symptoms of sun scald include bark splitting, leaves browning, or blackening, dieback or general plant decline.

Frost Damage

Frost damage can cause blackening, curling and leaf drop of leaves and twigs. In severe cases, frost can result in sudden death of flowers, buds, or foliage. In the spring after plants break dormancy, frost damage is often confused with spray damage by customers after an application. Most damage caused by frost to hardy plants will recover.
