 A
weekly blog from Tom Dayton....

June 16,
2017
As the summer solstice approaches with the long days of summer,
growth of the vegetable garden and the weeds is prolific. Besides hoeing
and pulling weeds, newspaper used as a mulch as well as corn gluten will
inhibit the weed growth that will easily take over a garden quickly.
In Avon, Ohio the large wholesale nursery called ‘Willoway Nurseries’
uses rice hulls as a mulch on top of their container-grown plants which does
an excellent job of inhibiting weeds. A few years ago, Willoway had
significant problems with production as many plants were stunted and yellow
from a chemical herbicide toxicity which effected their switch to the
non-chemical rice hulls.
At the nursery here, coco weed discs are employed that eliminate the use of
chemicals for weed control. These discs fit right into our program of
sustainable, environmentally friendly growing practices and prevents a
buildup of herbicide residue in our recycled irrigation water.
