For Garden Plans
BT HAROLD KERR
Extension Agent
The success of your vegetable
garden depend on the choice
of location. Choose a place in
full sun away from trees or ex
cislve shade. Level areas are
usually more satisfactory. The
garden should be considered
part of the landscape. It is us
ually divided from other sec
tlons of your grounds by a low
fence or other visual barrier,
Six
Planting a garden too large
U an often encountered prob
lem. It takes some time every
week to maintain and water it
A 20 x 50 foot garden will re
quire an hour or so weekly to
weed and water.
Plot Hans
, Garden plot plans are desir
able. Map out the scheme,
keoping in mind short-season
vegetables that mature quickly
and others that require longer
to mature. Spacing between
rows is Important The . closest
that rows can be grown is one
foot.'. Eighteen inches would
give more room to maneuver.
Planting'
Succession planting and inter
cropping provide greater crop
ping from your garden space,
Succession planting means
planting the same vegetable
several times during the season
for continual harvest and plant
ing In a space vacated by the
harvest of another. Intercropping
means planting early-maturing
crops between rows of long sea
son ; plants.
Variety Choices
Choose varieties carefully,
There is lots of difference be
tween them. In general hybrid
varieties are sturdier, produce
more and have superior flavor.
Disease resistance is also very
important.

Weed Control
In Your Garden
By HAROLD KERR
Weeds continue to be one of
the biggest problems of the
home flower and vegetable gar
den. There are a number of herbi
cide techniques which can be
used to case the chore of con
trolling these weedy pests.
Fumigation two to six weeks
before planting can be a real
useful technique Care must be
taken to avoid areas where roots
of trees, shrubs or perennials
may come In contact with the
fumlgant. Black plastic has
been useful in many areas. Any
black plastic is useable to sim
ply cover the solL It tends to
Increase soil temperature and
reduces moisture loss.
Many flowers and ornament
als show tolerance to herbicides
such as CIPC, Eptam, Atrazlne,
Simazlne or Casaron. Roses tol
erate Slmazlne or Casaron.
Pines, Arborvltac, Caragana and
Juniper are tolerant up to 3
pounds of Simazlne. Bulbs are
tolerant up to !', pounds of
Simnzine for the control of an
nual weeds.
Atrazlne, Simazlne or Dluron
can be used to control weeds
in driveways, parking areas and
around foundations.
The use of herbicides and
other techniques can save a lot
of work when it comes to keep
ing the yard and garden free
of weeds. Be sure to get spe
clfic recommendations when us
ing these measures.
