September 2, 2014 Kim’s Weekly Garden Newsletter



These weekly garden notes are written by Kim Willis, unless another author is noted, and the opinions expressed in these notes are her opinions and do not represent any other individual, group or organizations opinions.

Hi Gardeners

I hope you had a great last holiday weekend in summer.  We got a touch of summer to go out with, including storms. We got about an inch and a half of rain and we were starting to need it.  Now it gets cooler- hopefully frost will hold off for a while but start listening to evening forecasts.

Early Michigan apples are in the stores and farm markets now.  My own apple crop is dismal this year, 2 trees out of 4 had some moderate production and the apples are smaller than usual. 

Our sweet corn harvest is over- but it was good while it lasted.  The tomatoes are overwhelming us, even though I planted just 3 plants this year.  They have a lot of fungal problems right now but are still producing like gang busters.  We have some small melons; hopefully they will ripen before frost.  I have yet to get a good ripe watermelon this year- despite trying to buy one several times.  They get picked too green.

A new plant is blooming in the garden- toad lilies, (Tricyrtis) and the ligularia is also in bloom.  The shrub roses have picked up bloom, Rose of Sharon is in bloom as well as goldenrod, hardy hibiscus and mums are showy right now. 

Stores have the fall mums out for sale right now.  If you buy them, buy ones that are still mostly buds to prolong your color show.  If you want to give them a chance to return next year plant them in the ground and keep them well watered.  Don’t trim the foliage off as it dies- wait until spring.  Sometimes you can get mums to return next year but most just won’t survive, even if they are rated as hardy.  Mums really do best if spring planted.  But keep the pots watered and you can have a good flower show well into fall, keeping your garden colorful anyway.

September almanac

Can you believe its September already?   The Harvest moon occurs this month on September 8.  It’s called the harvest moon because farmers often used the light of this month’s full moon to complete their harvest.  Speaking of harvesting the best days for above ground crops are said to be the 4th and 5th – and for below ground crops it’s the 12th and 13th.   The autumn equinox, the start of fall is September 23rd.  We’ll be down to 12 hours of daylight then.

All the fall weather predictions are out now.  The Farmers Almanac predicted Labor Day would be fair and unseasonably cold.  Got that wrong.   In fact they were very wrong most of last year and this summer. 

The birth flower for September is the aster or in some places, the morning glory.  Asters are said to symbolize powerful love and morning glories just affection so choose the flower you give this month accordingly.  The September birthstone is sapphire.

Besides Labor Day holidays in September include Grandparents day the 7th (who honors us grandparents anyway?) of course 911 remembrance day on the 11th, the 13th is National Peanut day, the 14th is Pet Memorial day, the 19th is National POW-MIA day, 21st is International Peace Day, the 26th is Native American Day and the 28th is both Good Neighbor Day and Ask a Stupid Question day. 

September is Hispanic Heritage Month, National Chicken month, Honey month, Classical Music month and International Square Dancing month.

Growing Asters, the September birth flower

Asters are fall blooming perennials that can add last minute color to flower beds and borders.  Perennial asters are easier to grow than mums are and more likely to survive the winter even when planted in full bloom in the fall.  There are dozens of varieties of asters and there is sure to be a color and form of aster that will suit any garden.
Perennial asters.

Aster comes from the Greek word for star, and our wild asters may seem as numerous as stars sparkling across a dry meadow in the fall.  Native asters are often tall; they have struggled up through tall grass and weeds to the sunlight.  They throw their froth of small daisy like flowers out above the brush and sprinkle them through the weeds.   Many cultivated asters have been developed from the natives that are more compact, have a mounding habit and larger flowers.  

Native aster species are wonderful for naturalized gardens and attract butterflies and bees and people sometimes move native asters to flower borders and butterfly gardens. (Take only plants from your own property or from areas where you have permission to dig the plants.) Individual native plants have different growth habits so choose carefully.  It might be best to choose the plant in the fall when it is in bloom, mark the plant, and return in the spring to transplant it, as wild asters seem to establish better when moved in the spring.

 Compact varieties of asters are excellent for fall containers.  Some asters can be used as ground covers.  Asters make good, long lasting cut flowers and also dry well. 

Aster cultivation

Almost all asters are upright plants with thick woody stems and long narrow leaves. There are some that hug the ground and one that is a climbing vine.  Aster flowers are small, 1-2 inches across, and daisy like.  They come in all shades of blue, purple, white, pink and red.  While the centers are often yellow, there are no yellow or orange perennial asters yet. Asters begin blooming in late summer and usually continue blooming until a hard freeze kills them.

Perennial asters are hardy from zone 3-9.   Asters tolerate a wide range of soils.  They will do well in dry areas but will also do fine in well-watered sites.  Most asters prefer full sun; some will tolerate light shade.  Unless your soil is extremely poor, native species of asters do not need fertilization.  Some of the cultivated varieties may bloom heavier if they are fertilized in the early spring with a timed-release fertilizer for flowers.

You can start asters from seed but most gardeners will want to start with plants.  Potted asters can be planted in the garden from early spring to about 6 weeks before the ground freezes.  If you start with seeds you can sow the seed where you want the plants to grow or for best results, you can start the seed indoors 6-8 weeks before your last frost and transplant outside.  

Space asters from 1 to 3 foot apart, depending on the variety.  Asters form large clumps and need to be divided every 3 years or so.  Simply dig up the clump in the early spring and separate it into 2 or 3 parts, which you can then re- plant.   

If you want dense rounded clumps of asters and abundant flowers, pinch your aster plant back by about 6 inches at the beginning of July.  Take your fingers and “pinch” the stem off just before a set of leaves.  Don’t pinch asters after July 15.   If you don’t pinch your asters they will be taller and the display will be airy and lighter.  In the fall after a hard freeze has killed the plants, asters may be cut off to ground level.

Asters are prone to powdery mildew, a fungus disease that makes the leaves first get a white, powdery coating, then turn brown and fall off.  You can use a flower fungicide to prevent the disease, applying it from about July 1 through the blooming season.  Provide good ventilation by not crowding the plants and don’t keep asters overly moist.

Some aster varieties

The native New England Aster has lovely blue-purple flowers and cultivated varieties of this native include ‘Purple Dome’ - deeper purple flowers on a rounded, compact plant, and ‘Alma Potschke’ - rosy pink flowers.  

‘White Wood Aster’ is a native species that has loads of tiny white flowers with purple centers.  It will tolerate light shade.  ‘Silky Aster’ is a native that has silvery gray leaves and rose-violet flowers.

Other cultivated asters include ‘Lady in Black’ which has deep purple foliage and hundred of tiny white daisies with pink centers. ‘Wonder of Staffa’ has lavender flowers that begin in late June and keep blooming until frost.  ‘Pink Star’ is a 2 foot mounded aster smothered with small, soft pink flowers. 

Odd asters include the native climbing aster, Carolina aster, which is hardy only to zone 7.  It has light pink flowers with a light pleasant scent.  ‘Nanus’ is a tiny plant, 12 inches high, with shiny green leaves and sky blue flowers. ‘October Skies’ is a bright blue flowered plant only 18 inches high and excellent as a groundcover and ‘Alert‘ is a dwarf aster with red flowers. 

 Asters are great plants for fall color in the garden and since they survive dry conditions well are great for areas where water use is restricted.  They provide food for butterflies and bees when little else is available.  They deserve to be planted in the garden much more frequently than they are.

Need a recipe to use up tomatoes?

Here’s a recipe I like, tomato and bacon jamA close scrutiny of the recipe
Tomato Jam
reveals one thing- it’s basically a ketchup recipe with maybe a tad more sugar added and some bacon pieces thrown in.   It tastes like sweet ketchup with chunks.  Fifty years ago when more people made their own ketchup this recipe would have been ketchup- after it was passed through a strainer or colander.  The bacon probably wouldn’t have been added and the results probably would have been canned instead of frozen.  Tomato jam isn’t bad though, and you may want to give it a try.

You might want to make the recipe without the bacon.  It’s probably better if you put the tomato jam on toast then add some nice cooked bacon and some lettuce.  Without the bacon added, your tomato jam can also be used on other things, without the bacon flavor.  One of the best ways to use this tomato jam is to slather it on some home fried potatoes.  It’s also good on crackers, meatloaf and grilled cheese sandwiches.

This recipe is quite adaptable- you don’t need to follow it exactly.    You can make it less sweet- use a little more vinegar and a 1/4 cup less sugar, you can add finely chopped green or hot peppers, you can vary the spices to suit your taste.  Taste the product as you go and realize that as it cooks down the flavors will intensify.  Sugar is part of what makes the thick, jam like texture, so don’t use sugar substitutes.

If you think you would rather have ketchup then jam, use peeled tomatoes, push the tomato pulp through a colander to remove the seeds then use 4 cups of pulp and the rest of the recipe below.  Blend after cooking until it’s smooth. 

Here’s a tip on cooking.  You can use a saucepan and slowly simmer this recipe until it cooks down. You’ll need to hover around the kitchen and stir occasionally, especially near the end when it’s getting thick, to keep it from scorching.  But you can also put the recipe in a microwave safe bowl- uncovered- and cook it in the microwave.  You won’t have to watch it quite as closely although it will take almost as long to cook.   It helps to open the microwave door every half hour to let steam out and wipe off moisture inside with a paper towel.

You can also make this jam in the crockpot, which is probably the easiest method of all.  I’d be home though, as it cooks, so it won’t scorch or over  cook.

The time will vary depending on a lot of things; expect at least an hour of cooking time.  It’s done when you have reduced it to about half; in the recipe below that would be about 2 cups of jam.  It will thicken as it cools too.  So here’s the recipe for tomato jam.

½ pound of bacon cooked crisp and crumbled, maple bacon is great
4 cups of very ripe, finely chopped tomatoes
1 medium onion, finely diced
1 cup of sugar
2½ tablespoons vinegar
1½ teaspoon salt
¼ teaspoon black pepper
¼ teaspoon garlic power (optional)

Put everything except the bacon in a pan and cook until reduced to about half the volume and the jam looks thick and shiny.   This will take from 1-2 hours on the stove or in the microwave, 4 hours or so in the crockpot.  Stir in crumbled bacon.  Let the jam cool then divide into small portions.  Freeze what you don’t think you will eat within two days.  Refrigerate any jam that isn’t put in the freezer until used.  Jam in the freezer will keep for 2 months.
This makes about 2 cups of tomato jam.

This week’s weed- Venice Mallow Flower of an Hour- Hibiscus triomum

Venice mallow
If you are up early in the morning you may get to see this pretty weed that is a cousin to our garden hibiscus.  The pretty flowers of Venice Mallow are open for only an hour or so each morning, hence the common name, Flower- of -an- Hour.  The 1½ - 2 ½ inch flowers are white to pale yellow with  purple markings at the base of the flower surrounding the bright yellow stamens.  The flowers leave behind a small, green striped balloon-like seed pod.

The leaves of Venice Mallow are shaped a lot like watermelon leaves.  They are long, deeply scalloped, 3 leaflet leaves joined at the base.  The leaves, paired with the plump striped seed pod, often lead people to believe they are watermelon plants and they are left in the garden rather than pulled.

Venice Mallow blooms from late July until frost. The plant can grow upright or sprawl along the ground like a small vine.  It grows at the edges of gardens and field crops with moderately fertile soil in full sun.    Venice Mallow is an annual and spreads by seeds.

The couple who smokes pot together, gets along better- and why your kid should choose pot over alcohol

I have always thought if bars replaced alcohol with pot the world would be a much “mellower” place.  And here’s a new study that says couples who smoke pot together have a greatly reduced rate of domestic violence compared to couples who drink together, use other drugs, or use no “recreational substances’ at all.

The pot study was done by the University at Buffalo School of Public Health and Health Professions and Research Institute on Addictions (RIA), and was published in the online edition of Psychology of Addictive Behaviors in August, 2014.  The study looked at over 600 couples in their first 9 years of marriage and found that the more pot they used the less likely they were to have had domestic violence in their relationship.

Another recently published study showed that THC, a chemical compound found in marijuana, may slow down the progression of Alzheimer’s disease or even stop it.  It reduces the buildup of amyloid beta, the sticky protein found in the brain that is thought to be the cause of Alzheimer’s disease.  A very small dose is therapeutic and THC is a natural, safe product.  This research was done by Byrd Alzheimer's Institute and the University of South Florida College Of Pharmacy and published in the Journal of Alzheimer's Disease.

So two great research studies came out last month involving marijuana and what gets reported on the evening news under “science” this week?   A study that says smoking marijuana might harm the brains of children under 19.  It has been well known even to most ardent pot promoters for a long time that pot isn’t great for developing brains.  On the other hand alcohol isn’t very great for youth brain cells either, and here’s the real kicker- no kid has ever died from a pot overdose. 

If you have a kid going to college tell them to choose pot over alcohol if they can’t abstain entirely from recreational drug use (and alcohol is a drug). Here’s the stats published by the government on alcohol abuse by college students, 1,825 die from alcohol poisoning each year, 599,000 had injuries caused under the influence of alcohol, more than 97,000 were the victims of sexual assault or rape while they or the perpetrators were drinking. Absolutely no students have died from ingesting or smoking pot.

It just makes me a bit upset that the evening news reports old repeated research about the dangers of pot and ignores two new studies showing that the plant has great benefits to mankind.

Peace out

Labor Day lawn chores
The Labor Day holiday signals the unofficial end to summer and also a great reminder that September is a key time for homeowners looking to spruce up the lawn.
Posted on August 28, 2014 by Kevin Frank, Michigan State University Extension, Department of Plant, Soil and Microbial Sciences

It’s a busy time of year with school starting, fall sports kicking into full gear, and of course lawn chores preparing for winter. Throughout most of Michigan, the summer of 2014 will likely be remembered for cool temperatures and adequate if not excessive rainfall. Some will also remember 2014 as the summer the turf would never quit growing. Probably the biggest challenge I’ve seen with most lawns is simply a lack of fertility. With perfect growing conditions, turf has burned through fertilizer applications quicker than normal resulting in many lawns starting to lose density and becoming invaded by pests such as white clover and rust.

Weed control
Fall is the ideal time to control weeds because unlike the summer when weeds are focusing on top-growth, in the fall weeds are storing energy in their root system and are more susceptible to herbicide applications. If you can tolerate looking at the weeds for a couple more weeks, wait until late September or early October before making a herbicide application. Apply herbicides on a sunny day when rain is not in the forecast for 24 hours. We want the herbicides to dry on the leaf surfaces and not be immediately washed off.

There are many different herbicides that could be used including the most common three-way broadleaf weed control mixtures. As with any pesticide application, always make sure to wear the appropriate safety attire and follow all label recommendations.

Rust
In addition to weeds invading, I’ve also been noticing plenty of rust on turf. Rust is the disease homeowners notice when their white tennis shoes and white poodles traverse through the lawn and come back with a nice shade of bronzish-orange. There are several types of rust: stem rust, crown rust, leaf rust and stripe rust. As a general rule in almost all cases, rust is considered a cosmetic turfgrass disease that, although it may discolor the turf, will not result in turfgrass death.

If you find yourself inundated with a bad case of rust, make sure to keep up on your mowing and a fertilizer application around the Labor Day weekend should help stimulate turf growth that will help diminish the impact of the rust.

Fertilizer application
A fertilizer application in early September will help the turf outcompete pests such as white clover and rust. Choose a fertilizer that has slow release nitrogen in the analysis such as sulfur coated urea, polymer coated urea, methylene urea or a natural organic source. I would generally avoid applying 100 percent fast release nitrogen fertilizers such as urea at this time of year as they can force too much top-growth that results in more mowing and reduced rooting. Fertilizing around Labor Day will result in moderate top-growth and give the turf some extra energy to develop roots improve density.

Seeding
If you’re thinking about seeding any bare areas in the lawn this fall, now is the time to get started. Reduced weed competition from summer annuals such as crabgrass, cooler temperatures and shorter day length that results in less time for soil drying all facilitate turf establishment in the fall. In many cases, home lawns don’t need complete reestablishment, but only reseeding of small areas or interseeding into a thin lawn to increase density. Please see my Michigan State University Extension article from last fall, “Tips for seeding lawns in September,” for five tips on seeding lawns.
