Save money on your lawn By Vern Holm, Resource Conservationist, Yamhill Soil and Water Conservation District Would you like to have a nicer lawn, save money and protect the environment too? Here are some money and time saving tips: The easiest and most cost-effective thing you can do is to not bag your lawn clippings. Think about it -- as it grows, your lawn essentially "mines" nutrients from the earth. By leaving clippings on the lawn you are returning these nutrients back to the soil so you will not have to fertilize as often. In addition, because the clippings act as a mulch they conserve soil moisture, thereby reducing the need to water. Most people mow their lawn too short. Set the mower height at three inches and your grass will be healthier and Competent Courteous = Confidential Triple C Tax Pros, PC Income Tax Services Payroll & Bookkeeping (503) 864-3101 380 E. Third St. (99W), Lafayette, Oregon 97127 Elaine Andrews, LTC, EA Vicki Hull, LTC, EA listening to your well pump run, it makes little sense to try and keep your lawn green during the summer months. In this section of the country it is natural for grass to brown out during the dry season and you can count on it to green up after the rains return. However, if you feel you must water it is much better to do it thoroughly once a week than to water a little every day. Use a straight-sided can to measure the amount you've watered and stop watering once it reaches an inch deep. Watering at night or early in the morning greatly reduces evaporation and it allows the water to seep deep into the soil where it can be stored effectively. If you are eradicating broadleaf weeds in your lawn, you have two choices: a granular "weed and feed" or a liquid applied with a sprayer. No matter which type you use, always follow label directions and be careful not to apply on or around surface water. Weed and feed should only be applied when the lawn is wet, either from heavy dew, rain or sprinkling. A wet- ted surface allows the granules to dissolve on the leaves, thereby allowing the herbicide to enter the weed's system. Liquid control should be applied when the grass is dry, as it allows the homeowner to keep track of the areas sprayed. When you fertilize, make the applications in the spring or fall when the grass is actively growing. Of the two, fall fertilizing is the best as it promotes the health of roots and stems. Even though they seem more expensive, slow release fertilizers are a better value as they last a lot longer, are much less likely to pollute surface water, and encourage more controlled plant growth. Finally, it makes no sense to fertilize the sidewalk. Not only are you wasting money, the fertilizer gets flushed directly into the nearest stream when it rains. If you use a broadcast spreader watch where the fertilizer is landing and adjust your path accordingly.

If you have small patches of weeds, pulling or hoeing are still a great way to get rid of the pests. Now is a good time to get started, as the soil is moist and most weeds have not had a chance to develop seeds. Gardeners can get a jump on weeds by using a pre-emergent that inhibits root formation during germina- tion. Several organic varieties are made of corn gluten, and unlike manmade products, they are safe around pets, children, and wildlife. Pre-emergents don't know the difference between a vegetable and weed, so they can only be used around actively growing plants. If you use liquid herbicides please keep in mind that grapes are extremely sensitive to broad-leaf weed kills that are sold widely to homeowners. They include active in- gredients such as 2,4-D, dicamba, triclopyr, or clopyralid. Other herbicides that are used on Himalayan blackberries, such as glyphosate (Round-Up) are extremely damaging to new growth on grape vines. If you are eradicating broadleaf weeds in your lawn, you have two choices: a granual "weed and feed" or a liquid applied with a sprayer. No matter which type you use, always follow label directions and be careful not to apply on or around surface water. Weed and feed should only be applied when the grass is dry, as it allows the homeowner to keep track of the ar- eas sprayed. In both cases, weed control works best if followed by a couple of days of dry weather. Weed seeds that have not yet germinated won't be affected, so you will need to make another application in two weeks' time. Also, cer- tain weeds, such as quack grass, are not affected by broadleaf control and need to be spot treated with products designed for this task. If you have any weed control questions, call the Yamhill Soil and Water Conservation District at (503) 472-6403, a full service garden center, or the Yamhill County Extension Master Gardeners at (503) 434-8918 (from 1 to 5 pro).
