BIG RED CHRISTMAS ORNAMENTS KEEP THE BIRDS  FROM PECKING INTO RIPENING TOMATOES. BIRDS THINK THE ORNAMENTS ARE SOMETHING GOOD TO EAT AND QUICKLY FIND OUT OTHERWISE. WHEN THE  TOMATOES ARE RIPEN BIRDS AREN'T INTERESTED.

MY PLANTS ARE COVERED IN BLACK FUNGUS. WHAT CAN I DO?

THIS IS VERY CONFUSING FOR CUSTOMERS AS THE FIRST INCLINATION IS TO SPRAY WITH A FUNGICIDE TO REMOVE THE BLACK FUNGUS FROM THE FOLIAGE. WHILE THIS WILL HELP ERADICATE THE SOOTY MOLD IT WON’T CURE THE UNDERLYING PROBLEM OF BUG INFESTATION-USUALLY APHIDS, WHITEFLIES OR SCALE. IF YOUR PLANTS ARE QUITE BLACK THOSE THINGS HAVE BEEN TEHRE AWHILE. TREAT YOUR PLANTS WITH AN INSECTICIDE THAT WILL REMOVE AND CONTROL BUGS TO KEEP YOUR PLANTS FUNGUS FREE. HORTICULTURAL OIL OR SPINOSAD ARE TWO GOOD PRODUCTS TO USE.

MY FRUIT/BERRY TREE NEVER PRODUCES WELL!

MAKE SURE THE PLANT IS IN THE RIGHT LOCATION - IDEALLY FULL SUN. FRUIT TREES ESPECIALLY REQUIRE 6 FULL HOURS OF SUN. SECONDLY, IF YOUR TREES FLOWERS BUT NO FRUIT PRESENTS (A) YOU MAY NOT HAVE SUFFICIENT HONEY BEES POLLINATING YOUR TREES (B) YOUR IRRIGATION HEAD HITS THE TREE DIRECTLY WHEN IT IS ON - WHICH WILL KNOCK THE BLOOMS OFF OR (C) THE TREE WAS SPRAYED WITH INSECTICIDE WHEN IN FLOWER OR (D) THERE IS TOO MUCH NITROGEN IN THE FERTILIZER YOU ARE USING WHICH MAKES FOR LUSH GROWTH BUT NO FLOWERS.
