A: What you have is truly granite dust, mixed with a little aluminum oxide. I can see how this byproduct of sand-blasting slabs would be very fine in consistency. The granite dust I was referring to is sometimes called rock dust or stone dust. It is a byproduct of crushing granite into gravel. As you can imagine, in this process, there are a lot of small pieces that are screened from the larger ones. Even though it is called granite dust, the consistency is very gritty. As far as using either material for fertilizer, both contain slow-dissolving potassium and a few other minor nutrients. Chemically speaking, it might take 50 years for your dust to decompose and release its potassium, and it might take a century to release the potassium from my larger particles. Having said all the above, my first boss, Charlie Tucker, taught me an elemental truth: You cant argue with success. If you are pleased with your garden harvest, you can use your granite dust with my blessings.

We are smack dab in the middle of the best planting time of the year right now. Select small trees for one-story homes (up to about 25 feet mature height) and medium-sized trees (up to about 35 feet) for two-story homes. Shade the south and west walls and windows of a home to reduce the cost of summer cooling.
Plant trees at least 6 to 8 feet from these walls and keep applied irrigation water 3 feet from the foundation. Do not plant large trees (above 40 feet when mature) in all but the largest residential landscapes.
Most lawns are planted now either by seed or sod. The most popular lawn grasses in our climate zone are the turf-type tall fescues that are used locally for sod.
When buying seed, stay away from pasture-type lawn grass seed unless you intend it for an athletic field. Its hardy but rough to the touch. Youll need about 12 to 15 pounds of turfgrass-type grass seed for every 1,000 square feet of lawn area you intend to plant.
This type of lawn grass is mowed at the highest setting of the lawnmower 3 inches. Tall fescue is oftentimes mowed too short here, which encourages summer heat damage and invasion by Bermuda grass.
It is extremely important the irrigation system is designed and installed to throw its water evenly to the neighboring irrigation heads to survive the high temperatures next summer. If the water pressure is too high, you might need to install a pressure regulator. Consider installing a pressure vacuum breaker if you dont have one.
Its still too early for major pruning of landscape and fruit trees. Look for pruning classes starting around mid-December.
Q: I have a 10-year-old black or Idaho locust that I planted. It was planted in amended soil and gets plenty of water. It is now about 20 feet tall, and this year the leaves only grew on one side and I am afraid it will die. One half the tree has no leaves.
A: Locust trees, whether Idaho or black locust, struggle in the heat of the desert for two reasons. First, they have trouble handling strong desert heat and sun, and second, they have thin outer bark on younger parts of the tree until these parts get older. This sunburn damage is followed by insect borer attacks, which usually kill the tree.
Plant locust trees on the east or north side of the home and out of late afternoon heat and direct sunlight. Never plant them in areas surrounded by rock mulch.
Locust trees are mesic plants, originating from moist climates. Mesic plants struggle in rock mulch, aka desert landscaping. These types of plants prefer good compost mixed in the soil at planting time, the soil moist surrounding the tree and covered with 4 inches of wood chips.
Because of their thin outer bark, locust trees do not like extensive pruning in desert climates, ever. A recipe for killing a locust tree here is planting it on the south or west side of the home and pruning limbs and branches so the trunk and large limbs receive intense desert sunlight. Intense sunburn kills parts of the tree exposed to the intense sun, oftentimes the first summer after its pruned.
Once the tree gets hit with sunburn, wood-boring insects attack these damaged areas in their attempt to finish it off. It might take two, three or four years, but they will kill it.
What to do? If the tree is worth saving, then enrich soil under the tree canopy with compost. If rock is present, rake it back 6 feet or more and spread an inch layer of compost on the surface of the soil, lightly dig it in and water it.
Cover this area with a 4-inch layer of wood chips, not rock. If you think the tree has borers, apply a systemic soiled trench of an insecticide following the label.
Q: I planted two 36-inch boxed African sumacs last week. How much water should I give them and how often should I water them?
A: You forgot the third question: Over what area should the water be applied? The applied water should wet all the soil inside the box as well as soil extending 18 inches beyond the box. Enough water should be applied each time its irrigated to wet the soil 18 inches deep. It should be watered again when half of the volume of water you applied is gone.
Before I forget, if the tree wasnt watered thoroughly when it was planted I would water all of the soil in this area thoroughly with a hose attached to a sprinkler for about one hour. The next day I would do it again. Just twice to settle the soil around the rootball.
Water needs to be applied to the soil inside the box and outside the box. After the irrigation is finished, use a 4-foot length of skinny rebar pushed in the soil in several spots to make sure the water reached 18 inches deep.
Buy a house plant moisture meter and stick it in the amended soil in three or four locations about 4 inches deep and apply the next watering when the meter averages five on the meter. Repeat this about four times a year when there is a major change in the seasons.
As trees and shrubs get larger, more area under the plant needs water so the irrigated area is larger.
Q: My new home has a dead lawn in the backyard. I was considering hybrid Bermuda grass like TifTuf Bermuda since it handles the heat better. Whats your opinion?
A: I wont tell you what to do, but I will give you the pluses and minuses. All the Bermuda grasses are warm-season grasses, which means they like the heat but turn brown for three or four months during our winter. The traditional grass grown in most lawns in our desert is turf-type tall fescue which is a cool-season grass. Cool-season grasses such as the fescues, rye and bluegrasses like the cooler months of the year but struggle during the heat of summer.
Warm-season grasses like TifTuf hybrid Bermuda use about 20 percent less water than most traditional lawns. They are prettier to look at and softer to the touch. They dont have the disease problems that fescue has in the summer. They repair themselves during the summer when damaged by dogs.
Now the negatives. Warm-season grasses are usually prettier to look at but are more costly to maintain. They turn brown from around mid- or late November through about March. This means if you want a green winter lawn, you must overseed it with a cool-season grass for the winter months.
Most warm-season grasses require a special mower for cutting it, and these are more expensive to maintain. Maintenance costs are higher because of overseeding in the fall, periodic power raking and aerating, and more frequent applications of fertilizer to make it look good. The biggest reason why most residents of Las Vegas do not want a warm-season lawn is that it turns brown in the winter.
I thought warm-season grasses would be more popular in Las Vegas than they are because of the cost of water, but I was wrong. Most people prefer to have a green lawn during the winter that doesnt require much effort.
Q: What varieties of figs do you recommend for the best grown in the desert? Do you have to provide cold protection? Which varieties have the lowest water requirements?
A: I have tried many kinds of figs over the years here and never had problems except with Brown Turkey. But that could have been my fault. I have grown yellow figs (white), purple, black, striped and brown types. All of them successfully produced fruit if they are given enough water.
They can be successfully grown with winter temperatures down to about 15 degrees without any damage. The most common reasons for failure are not giving them enough water during the summer months and poor soil preparation at the time of planting.
I prefer to cover the soil with 4 inches of wood chips and deliver about 30 gallons of water at each irrigation. They can handle full sun with no problems provided they are given enough water at each irrigation. Apply that water to at least half the area under its canopy or about a 6-foot-diameter basin. They are one of the few fruit trees that can be cut nearly to the ground and still produce fruit the next year.

A Villager is facing $1,800 in fines over artificial turf grass and if she doesnt pay up, she could face legal action.
After months of wrangling with the Community Development District 6 board, Community Standards and the Architectural Review Committee, Shirley Schwartz finally relented and removed the artificial turf grass at her home in the Edgewater Bungalows. She replaced the artificial grass with rock. During the process, $50 daily fines were racking up. Fines against her have reached $1,800.
This Turf Grass was put down at Shirley Schwartzs home in the Edgewater Bungalows. It has since been removed.
The matter will be discussed at 9:30 a.m. Friday when the Community Development District Board of Supervisors meets at Savannah Center.
The specific rule that Schwartz broke was: In an effort to protect limited natural resources, all Homesites shall remain finished with the same quantity and style of water-conservative, drought-tolerant sod and landscape as originally provided by the Declarant. Notwithstanding, Owners are encouraged to and may add landscape that is more water-conservative and drought-tolerant than originally provided; however, any such alterations to areas visible from roadways or golf courses must receive prior written approval from Declarant.
Villager Shirley Schwartz has replaced her turf grass with stone at her home in the Edgewater Bungalows
Schwartz did not seek approval from the ARC before putting down the artificial turf grass which she said cost her $4,000. She came back into compliance on Aug. 27.
If she doesnt pay the fine, District Counsel will seek all available legal remedies which may include initiating a lawsuit, seeking an injunction and placing a lien on the property.

Arminia Bielefeld might not have won yesterdays match against Bayern Munich, but it used its best asset to capture the heart of Manuel Neuer. A true appreciator of turf, Neuer could not keep his eyes off of Arminia Bielefelds sweet grass. There is no doubt that Neuer views Bielefelder Alm as one sultry pitch.
Dont believe us? Well, then just listen to Neuer go grass-to-mouth:
The big question now is if Neuer truly has his eyes on another pitch? Should the Allianz Arena feel insecure? Only Neuer knows for sure, but lets just say that the man can never have enough good grass.
Digging deeper into that grass...is Neuer taking subversive shots at the groundskeeper at the Allianz Arena? I dont want to start any trouble, but Neuer clearly admires a man who knows his way around some good grass.
Whatever the case, Neuer eyeing up a new pitch after all these years probably shouldnt be too much a scandal. Any goalkeeper worth his weight in sod, is never satisfied with just quality grass they tend to think it is always greener on the other side.

There are 50 million acres of turfgrass in the United States. For perspective Idaho is 53 million acres.
Home lawns provide a place for children to play and pets to roam, but they consume water, insecticides, herbicides, fertilizers, and our time and money, while providing very little ecological value, color or interest to our homes. Some lawns can be a pain to mow due to their shape or size. Others serve no real purpose, or are difficult to keep looking good. It might be time to replace your grass with waterconserving, perennial flowering plants! Fall is the perfect season to kill a portion of your lawn for replanting in the spring.
Grass is tenacious, so youll want to kill it before replanting. The quickest way, although the least environmentally-friendly one, is to use an herbicide. If you choose this method, use an herbicide specific to grasses, read and follow the label, and watch the weather report for rain. Another quick, albeit laborintensive, method is to use a sod cutter to slice the lawn into pieces, and then pull up sections.
Afterwards, add a few inches of top soil to replace whats pulled up with the grass.
Smothering your lawn takes time, but its easier, and friendlier to your soil. Essentially you need to deprive the grass of sunlight until it dies. Cover it with cardboard or six layers of newspaper, and then place a layer of compost, topsoil, or wood mulch on top. You can also cover it with a foot of wood chips.
Using wood chips is better for soil health as they allow air and water through to the soil microorganisms underneath that are critical for plant health. You can get a massive amount of arborist chips through the company ChipDrop for little or no money. If you start smothering in the fall, by spring, most of the grass and weeds should be dead and you can plant through the decomposing materials. Sit back with a cup of cocoa and let nature do they work for you!
How you develop your new yard next depends upon its intended use, and the look you are trying to achieve. Here are a few questions to run through as you dream about your new landscape:
What do you want to use this spot for? For gatherings, consider a flagstone patio. If you walk across your lawn frequently now, consider a chat/gravel, woodchip, paver or flagstone pathway.
What permanent features, if any, will you want? (boulders, water features, art)
Do you want to build up with a berm, or install a dry streambed in a low spot?
Do you LOVE local news? Get Local News Headlines in your inbox daily.
Thanks! You'll start receiving the headlines tomorrow!
What look or function do you wish to achieve with your new plants? Drought-tolerant plants can serve as everything from a colorful and well-structured backdrop to a haven for native wildlife.
Will your current irrigation system work well for your new plants, or do you need to install something different? (e.g. converting sprinklers to drip)
There are SO many native and regionally appropriate plants that require minimal care. Its important to be aware of the needs of your new plant babies, such as their preferred soil type and sun requirements, before you plant. And remember, even drought tolerant plants need additional water during their first couple of years to get them off to a good start. Visit the Idaho Botanical Garden to see firsthand how plants look when newly installed and fully mature (especially in our new Dry Garden!). In addition, an Internet search for landscaping with native plants Idaho brings up a plethora of resources.

Im writing on behalf of the Swampscott Conservancy, a non-profit organization with a mission of preserving and expanding our towns natural open spaces, regarding the six options for a new school building currently being considered by the SBC.
We are aware that the towns Open Space & Recreation Plan Committee and Conservation Commission sent letters to the SBC outlining the criteria that they believe the SBC needs to consider in reviewing each option. Many of the items listed in those letters are also relevant to the concerns of the Conservancy. We therefore echo their call that the SBC ensure that the criteria they list be considered in the selection process and that the selected option is designed in such a way that each of the criteria, as appropriate to the particular site, is fully met.
While each of the school options has STEM educational opportunities, care must be taken that, if conservation land (such as Ewing Woods) is used by the school for nature study or as play space as described on the Community Priority Category of Sustainability, it is done so in a way that will ensure that the property is not only maintained essentially in a natural state and undamaged by school use but that environmental education is explicitly integrated in the curriculum to meet MA-STE.
Further, in designing a new school building, we recommend the following:
Undertaking the improvement of natural habits in adjacent conservation or other natural areas during the building process by including, for example, the eradication of invasive species and replanting native species vegetation. Such improvements should be undertaken concurrently with construction and completed within 18 months of school building completion.
The Conservancy is committed to working with the town and is available to coordinate with the SBC regarding the proposed options and implications on the natural environment of those options. Sincerely, Tonia Bandrowicz, president of Swampscott Conservancy

I was saddened to hear of the recent passing of Vince Yurko.
Vince was Mr. Baseball long before the movie of the same name starring Tom Selleck. Vinces love for baseball was overwhelming; he would have fielded a team in the snow if possible in the winter months. Vince would have players over to his house to practice their swing by hitting baseballs off a tee in his large basement.
Vince was the George Toma, the God of Sod at Christian Field in South Wilkes-Barre. He loved riding the lawn tractor cutting the grass to perfection. During batting practice, if a player fouled a ball up onto the levee, that player would have to go and retrieve it. He would also have a bucket of baseballs at each practice. The count of balls had better be the same at the end of practice as it was in the beginning or you were going to go hunting for the missing ones!
Vince was one of the founders of South Wilkes-Barre Teener League Baseball. At the beginning of the season, Vince, Lou Foley, Ed Nash and myself would spend hours drawing up a schedule over glasses of iced tea and some of Vinces wife Barbs delicious pies. Barb was the absolute love of his life. This was well before the era of computers when friends actually got together to do things they enjoyed. If you saw Vince, you wouldve seen his best friend, the late Lou Foley. Vince, Lou and Jack Henry were regulars at the Burger King in Hanover Township. I would kid Vince that if I saw Burger Kings stock go down, I knew the boys hadnt shown up in a bit.
Vince had a big influence and a genuine caring for the young athletes who played for him. He loved baseball, the New York Yankees, the GRIT television station and most of all, his wife, Barb.
His legacy will live on in the young men he coached and mentored. He was truly one of the Boys of Summer. Batter up.
Jack Morgan
Past president, South Wilkes-Barre Teeners

And, our Key Horses have now gone 6-1-1 in just 9 picks as such here this meet.
We had a nice Saturday.
Now, we will go to Midway on Sunday to help celebrate my Moms 90th birthday. We are doing one of those drive-by celebrations. She cant go with me to Keeneland as we have done for each of the past 7 years. Keeneland decided only the rich and famous can come to see the races this meet. We dont fit either one of those categories. But we will have some fun.
Count on it.
Heres a look at Sundays races:
1st: 4-6-5/1/7-8Dontshowweakness (4)will get a huge drop in class for this one today from barn coordinator Greg Foley. Last seen, this one raced for $40,000 price tag. Today, he is in for $15,000. Has run two 4ths against much better. Barn wins with .27% when the trainer drops this much in one swoop. This is the 2nd route race, too, and the barn wins with .20% of those. Move back to the dirt should assist this ones effort. My pick in a weak group.I bet the 4 to win/place/show and then box the top three numbers in one exacta. I will key the top 3 over/under the 1 in two smaller units.
2nd: 2-1-3/5-4-6/7Irish Willow (2)nearly won at this same level when last seen at Churchill Downs on Sept. 27. Lost that tilt by a nose. Cuts back to a sprint here today, and the barn wins with .26% when they go from a sprint to a route and then back to a sprint distance. Trainer wins with .14% when making the 3rd start off the layup, too. Should fit nicely with these and has the speed to love this 7 furlong distance.Forevernoa (1)broke the maiden when racing over the sod at Arlington Park two races ago. Ran a very credible race last tim out when moved to the dirt here on Oct. 7. Just got tired at the wire. Cut back in distance should help this one out, too. Last three races have been solid.I bet the 2-1across the board and then box the top 3 in the exacta. I will key the 2-1 over/under the 3-5-4-6-7 in two smaller units, too. I may take a little more on the 1 across the board, as well. Take note.
3rd: 3-1-5/4-6/8-7Ketchikan (3)gets my nod in this spot. Ran well in the career debut, when third at Ellis Park. Ran over the grass that day, but that was during a dry-spell summer when the turf was firm and hard. Switch to dirt should not be an issue, and the barn wins with .17% of those making this switch. Gets a nice rider switch to the meets top jockey. Was way wide; was in and out; was not the best of trips in the last. Expect more here. BluePaynt (1)could be well-spotted for a huge run here, too. Missed by a neck last time out when getting back to the dirt at CD. Gets a route distance today, and the barn wins with .21% on the stretch out. Strong threat here.Ill Make It Coach (5)has been running against MSW company and now gets the drop into the MCL ranks for the first time. Barn wins with .10% of those making the drop for the first time. The last effort was not a great one, coming off the layup. The two races before were good enough to give credibility with the move to dirt today. Barn wins with .26% of those making this surface switch. Chance.I will be the 3-1 across the board and then box the top 3 inthe exacta. I will key the top 3 numbers over/under the 4-6 in two smaller units.
4th: 1-6-5/8/4-7Spy a Star (1)drops from the $40,000 price tag to a career low level today. Has two non-threatening 3rds on the resume so far, but against better and with modest improvement. Now, will get a route for the first time and the barn wins with .13% of those ind. Nice work here on Sept. 8. Looks best on paper.Bertrada (6)is dropping off a MSW turf event at Saratoga to a dirt MCL race here. Barn wins with .18% when going into the claimers for the first time, and with a much-improved .16% with the second start. Jockey has recent fame, but still has only won with .06% in 352 mounts this year. Dont get me started.Yellowstone Girl (5)comes from the barn of Brad Cox and drops into the MCL ranks for the first time, too. Rider has won with .26% of the last 62 mounts for this barn and the barn wins with .27% when dropping from MSW to MCL. Works are OK, but I would have expected more in the debut. The horse to watch here, IMO?Sacre Bleu (8).This is a first time starter for a new barn operation. Works at the Thoroughbred Center are very nice. And? This one gets the meets top winning rider. Like it.I betthe 1-8 across the board and then I box those two in theexacta. I will key the 1-8 over/under the 6-5-4-7 in two smaller units.
5th: (13)-1-8-9/6-2-3-5-11/10-4-(14)/7-12This is a wide, wide, wide open grass affair, which will be contested at 11/16-miles over the green, green grass of home. I will give the definite edge toPerjury Trap (13)in this one. Theres just one problem. This one is not in the race yet. The 3YO son of Blame, who is trained by Chad Brown, is probably the best in here. Has the ability to rush the start and/or come from far back. Move to grass has certainly helped. Been favored in all four runs, to date. Interesting rider choice for this one. Very interesting.In Love (1)ran a huge one in the 2020 debut on Sept. 20 at Churchill Downs. Came from last to just miss being first at the wire by less than 2. Now, gets a little more ground and a lot more experience. Love the odds on this one and the 4YO gelding is my firstUpset Special of the Day.I will give another longshot a shot in here, too.Falkirk (8)has run two very good ones since being equipped with the blinkers. But the trainer one great guy is 0-for-36 this meet. Ouch. Chilly.Lemon Kick (9)broke the maiden last time out by over 5 at Arlington Park. Got the blinkers for the first time in that one. Must move up to face winners for the first time today, and thats a tough assignment for any and all. But the barn wins with a very nice .23% with those types and the work on Sept. 1? Spot on. Take note here.I bet the 13 if he gets in. If not? Spread. I will bet the 1-8-9 across the board and then box the top 3 in the exacta. I will key the 1-8-9 over/under the 6-2 in two smaller units. Def use the 13, though, if he gets in and I key himwith the top 5/6 numbers.
6th: 5-6-8/3/2-4/1A very nice MSW event for the 2YOs here. I will give a very slight edge toInspector Frost (5)in this spot mainly due to the fact that this son of Frosted has a race under his girth. Ran a well-beaten 3rd in the debut at Churchill Downs in September, but was the betting favorite that day. The Place horse in that race has already come back to win the next out, too. Barn wins with .26% on 2nd outs, and .30% with beaten favorites. Trainer having another great meet here. Watch out.Tiwanaku (6)is a first time starter for the HOF trainer. Dam of this one has 3 winners from 3 starters. Rider has gone 6-4-4 in the last 22 mounts. Works for this one? Spot on. Son of Tapit is out of a Stakes-winning dam. All there for this one to be better than just good.War Machine (8)is another first timer, and this one has some long odds in the ML. I would not dismiss this one, though. Trainer wins with .16% on the first effort. Dam of this one has 3 winners from 4 starters and a Stakes winner, already. Works are very nice. Son of War Front? I would not dismiss. I use.I bet the 5-6 across the board and then box the top 3 in the exacta. I will key the top 3 over/under the 3 in two smaller units.
7th: 7-3/6-4-5-1/9Motagally (7)will drop into the claiming ranks for the first time, and the barn wins with a remarkable .43% of the time when that occurs. The connections paid a whopping $650,000 at the 2017 KEE September Yearling Sale for this one. Currently, the 4YO colt has earned less than $90,000 in purses. Want a bigger truck? But if you throw out the grass experiment two races ago, this one has run two nice 2nds in the last 3 outs. Those were against much tougher, too. Gets the meets winningest rider up. Love the work on Oct. 9 at CD. This is the one for me. My firstKey Play of the Daycomes right here.I bet the 7 to win/place/show and then box the 7-3 in one exacta. I will key the 7-3 over/under the rest of the numbers listed in two smaller units.
8th: 2-5/4-3-1G3 DowagerStakesLets be brutally honest. If this is a Graded Stakes event, then, well, Im a jet plane. In other words? It aint. But its a race and its got a couple of decent runners in here. I will give the edge toBlame Debbie (2),who will be stepping up to face Graded Stakes company for the first time since she was a tiring 6th in the G2 Lake Placid at Saratoga on July 19. She blitzed on the front end that day and ran out of gas. The barn switched plans and running styles after that one. And, she got the blinkers for the first time, too. Since that equipment addition, the daughter of Blame has won two in a row from coming off the pace and stretching out. Big shot in this lack-luster group.Siberian Iris (5)has only mustered a second and a third in 5 starts this year. All of those were on the Left Coast. But? In this group, this long-distance traveller has a shot. In 23 career starts on the grass. Only 3 wins. Does have 7 seconds and 3 thirds. So? I play under.I bet the 2 to win/place/show and then box the top two in the exacta. I will key the 2 over/under the all button in two more units.
9th: 2-5-7/8/6-3-4-1Sure wish I had a 2YO colt ready to run. Would fit nicely in this $70,000 MSW event to be contested at 7 furlongs. Not much to get excited about here. Not, at the least, going into it. I will fall back and go withBlushinstreetdevil (2).I have no idea who the trainer is, but I do know that he has not won a race in 4 starts this year. And, I do know that he did run a solid 3rd at KY Downs on Sept. 16. Now, this one must convert to the dirt and the rider has won with a rather modest .08% in 278 races this year. And, thats the best? Well, best guess.Thrown for a Loupe (5)didnt run much over there turf at CD last time out, but gets back to the dirt here. Barn wins with .11% when going from a sprint, to a route, and back to a sprint. Work on Oct. 10 was spot on. Like this rider. Searching for anything here.Southern Passage (7)was nipped by a nose last time out. Wow. Yeah, but that was against $50,000 claimers. Now, must move back to face MSW level. Barn is 0-for-7 when trying that this year. Works are good of late. Thats something to go on, I guess. Sound the Charge (8)is a first time starter, who has been working very well for this first race. Might as well. We dont know how good or bad this one is, as of yet.I bet the 5-8 take note across theboard and thenbox the 5-7-8 in the exacta. I will key the 5-7-8 over/under the 2 in two smaller units. Coin toss.
Good Luck & All the Best / Gene
