A few tips to make sure your lawn heads into dormancy strong!
🍂 Leave your grass at a height of 2 ½" for the final mowing of the season.
🍂 As leaves fall, rake them from lawns and add to compost or shred them and dig directly into your vegetable garden. Soggy mats of leaves on turf can lead to disease problems.
🍂 Green Thumb Winterizer should be applied in mid October. Your lawn will be nice and green in the spring.
🍂 Continue to water as long as the temperatures remain above freezing. Give your lawn a good watering before you drain your sprinkler systems.
Enjoy your weekend. We plan to!

How to wrap your trees: all deciduous trees should be wrapped from the soil surface to the first branch each fall by approximately November 1. Secure wrapping with masking tape or stretch-ties. Deciduous trees should be wrapped for the first 4-5 years after planting. Photo courtesy of https://extension.umn.edu/planting-and-growing-guides/protecting-trees-and-shrubs-winter

A few timely tips for the season ....
🎄 When purchasing your fresh Christmas tree, be sure to bring a blanket or tarp to cover the tree if you are tying it to the top of your car. This will protect your tree from drying out on the way home.
🎄 Cut 1 to 2 inches off the trunk of your tree and immediately place it in water. Add some tree preservative to the water.
🎄 Check the water level daily. A tree may “drink” a gallon or more of water each day. If the water reservoir gets dry, even once, the tree cut will seal and may not take up water again.
🎄 Place the tree away from heat sources, including fireplaces, wood stoves, heat vents and direct sunlight.
🎄 Always turn tree lights off when leaving home or going to sleep.
MBS Tech Support phone lines are currently down. We apologize for the convenience. We are working diligently to correct the problem.

Thank you for your patience.

With a major snowstorm in the forecast, you may be wondering how to protect your trees and shrubs. While we can't prevent all the damage that our wet and heavy spring snows can cause, there are steps to take to minimize the most severe damage. Here are two articles to help you prepare, and to help you with the inevitable (but hopefully minimal) cleanup after the skies have cleared!
