Stretch the limits of yield time Roy has invited us to visit his garden. DonnaMcClay is putting that together. The San Diego County Vector Control Program(VCP) is a countywide program that monitorsvectors and the diseases that they carry.
We asked for a talk about what theprogram is all about so we can refer ourclients as needed. Well, we got a little ofwhat we asked for. Sorry for the mosquitorepeat to all of you who saw the same talkat the General Meeting. Repetition isgood, right?!
Best way to control the little bugger that ismosquito is to get rid of standing water. Myth v Science talk had lots of great informationbut there was that one slide...
From Susan:
Hi Class,Great to meet you last Tuesday. Since there wasconfusion about the so-called "fairy dust" slide letme try to clarify it again.
According to the information about products forthe backyard gardener that I have from Dr. JimDowner of the UC Cooperative Extention:
Only pesticides are tested for efficiency. Other products for the garden such aspolymers, growth activators, hormones,vitamins, fertilizers, worm castings,composts, compost teas, nutrients,mycorrhizae and others are NOT efficiencytested. This does not mean these products don'twork- which I think was themisunderstanding. However, it also doesn'tmean that all of them will work or work wellsince no agency tests their efficiency.
Have a good weekend,Susan Lenz

Ask a Master Gardener
Q. I just moved to San Diego County and want to planta garden. What vegetables can I grow?
A.
The vegetables you can plant depend on theseason. We plant cool season vegetables fromfall to early spring and warm season vegetablesfrom spring to late summer. Refer person to theVegetable Planting Calendar on the MG websiteand to information on specific vegetables byJoyce Gemmell.Inquire where in the county the person lives(coast, inland, mountains, and desert). Areasnear the coast rarely receive frost in the winterand are slow to warm up in the summer. Inlandareas usually get frost in winter and receive moreheat in summer. Some crops like tomatoes,peppers, and beans can drop flowers and not setfruit if night temperatures are too cool or if daytemperatures are too high.
