Master Gardener Sue Morris: Bag product releases slow trickle for watering of new trees (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Last May I mentioned in a column about a product on the market called Treegator bags. They can be used to provide a slow delivery of water over the root balls of establishing trees and shrubs. The bag holds about 14 gallons of water and releases a slow trickle of water over five to nine hours. This will apply water directly over the root zone.

As mentioned before, bees and pollinators don’t like to work when it is very hot during the day and fruit doesn’t set when night temperatures are high. Tomatoes, peppers and cucumbers shed blossoms at around 90 degrees F. Leaf roll seemed to be a problem this year. How can you tell leaf roll from other tomato
Master Gardener Sue Morris: Bleached spots on plants most often due to sunscald (opens the original)
Read excerpt
In the last few weeks master gardeners have been getting questions about bleached spots on vegetables and fruits. Some consider this some sort of blight, but it is most often due to sunburn or sunscald. It is caused by the fruit being exposed to intense summer sun and we have had a lot of it this year. Intense sunlight causes cells to die and break down. The areas begin as being bleached white but then decay and turn brown or black as microorganisms move into the damaged area. Why so much damage
