AS MUCH AS ALWAYS, WE'D LIKE TO START WITH SOME SAMPLES.

THERE ARE NO INSECTS INVOLVED YOUR WITH THAT ONE, WAYNE.

>> NO, NOT DIRECTLY.

.

WE WOULD ALSO LIKE TO INVITE YOU TO FOLLOW "“BACKYARD FARMER"” ON OUR SOCIAL HOWEVER, IT'S ONE OF THOSE CEBOOK.

THINGS -- OUR LISTENERS AND VIEWERS GET TO HEAR ABOUT US START TALK ABOUT WASHING THINGS OFF OF THE PLANTS ALL THE TIME WITH CTS DIRECTL THE HOSE SO I THOUGHT I WOULD ON BRING SOME IDEAS OF WHAT I USE >> NO, NOT TO WASH THOSE INSECTS OFF.

DIRECTLY.

I THOUGHT I WOULD BRING IDEAS OF WHAT I USE TO MOST OF THE TIME WHEN IT'S JUST A GRAB AND GO, I GRAB THE HOSE N IT'S JUS AND I USE MY THUMB OVER THE END AND GO, I TO CONTROL THE JET OF WATER.

THE HOSE AND SOME PLANTS ARE MORE DELICATE MY THUMB OVER THE THAN OTHERS.

CONTROL THE JET SOME CAN TAKE A LITTLE MORE.

THERE ARE A LOT OF OPTIONS OUT SOME PLANTS ARE THERE.

DELICATE THAN OTHERS.

YOU GET THESE DIAL SPRAYERS HERE A LITTLE YOU CAN ADJUST THE FLOW.

YOU HAVE SOME CONTROL OF HE DIAL WHEN IT'S ON AND OFF.

YOU HAVE ONES THAT HAVE MULTIPLE CAN CONTROL WHEN IT' OPTIONS, FLOOD, CONE, CENTER, ONES JET.

HAVE MULTIPLE JET IS WHAT YOU WILL PROBABLY E, CENTER, USE MORE OFTEN.

SHOWER IS WHAT YOU WILL USE FOR STUFF THAT COMES OFF MORE EASILY.

USE MORE YOU CAN USE A WAND, DIAL IS WHAT YOU WILL USE FOR CONTROL, ON AND OFF.

COMES OFF MORE EASILY.

YOU CAN BUT THIS IS WHEN IT GETS MORE WAND, DIAL CONTROL, ON AND OFF.

BUT THIS IS WHEN IT FUN, YOU USE THE JET NOZZLE.

YOU GET A BRASS JET NOZZLE.

FUN, THIS IS THE SHORTER ONE.

USE THEY MAKE LONGER ONES.

I DON'T THINK IT REALLY MATTERS.

YOU GET THE IDEA HERE IS THAT YOU GET A BRASS JET STRONGER JET.

R YOU DON'T WANT TO USE THIS ON THE IDEA HERE IS T YOUR MORE HERBACEOUS, LOWER GET GROWING STUFF.

STRONGER JET.

YOU DON'T THIS CAME IN HANDY LAST YEAR USE THIS ON WHEN I HAD SOME TENT CATERPILLARS UP IN MY APPLE TREE, AND SO THEY WERE STUF A LITTLE FURTHER UP.

NOW, ON THE END OF THE HOSE, I DON'T HAVE A LOT OF CONTROL WITH THIS, BUT ONE OF THE TRICKS I FIGURED OUT YOU CAN TAKE THE END OFF SOME OF N MY APPLE TREE THESE WAND SPRAYERS.

THEY WERE FURTHER UP.

ONE OF YOU SCREW IT ON.

IT'S A STANDARD HOSE ATTACHMENT U CAN TAK END AND YOU CAN PUT IT ON.

END OFF S NOW, ALL OF A SUDDEN INSTEAD OF AN UNCONTROLLED JET NOZZLE, YOU A HOSE ATTACHMENT AND YOU CAN PUT IT HAVE YOURSELF A MORE SOPHISTICATED WEAPON.

OF AN UNCONTROLLED JET NOZZLE, YOU YOU HAVE YOUR DIAL CONTROL IF IT HAVE YOURSELF COMES WITH IT, BUT YOU ALSO HAVE E THE HANDLE SO IT'S AN ON AND OFF OPPORTUNITY.

YOU HAVE DIAL CONTROL IF IT THIS GAVE ME AN EXTRA LITTLE BIT OF REACH GOING UP TO MY SEMI DWARF APPLE BECAUSE THEY SO THERE WERE OF COURSE RIGHT UP AT THE TOP MORE ON AND OFF OPPORTU AND I WAS ABLE TO BREAK UP THAT GAVE WEBBING WITH THE JET NOZZLE AS MORE REACH OPPOSED TO THE JET SETTING ON ON SOMETHING LIKE THIS.

PPLE BECAUSE THEY WERE OF COURSE UP THIS GIVES ME A BIT MORE OOMPH.

AT THE TOP.

TH >> PERFECT, AS ALWAYS WE TALK A ABOUT IPM AND WATER IS A PERFECT OOMPH.

WEAPON.

AS ALWAYS WE TALK AB >> IT'S GREAT IN THE YARD AND IN IPM THE GARDEN.

IS A PERFECT WEAPON.

>> IT'S GREAT IN THE YARD AND IN KYLE, I AM SORRY YOU DID NOT GARDEN.

KY CHOOSE A WATER TOPIC TONIGHT.

>> I DID NOT.

YOU [ LAUGHTER ] I FEEL LEFT OUT.

I DID NOT.

[ LAUGHTER ] THERE IS COORDINATION THAT WENT LEFT ON AND I...WAS NOT INVOLVED.

OUT.

THERE IS COORDINATION THAT WENT >> APPARENTLY, YOU DIDN'T GET AS NOT THE MEMO.

INVOLVED.

>> APPARENTLY, >> SO, SO I JUST BROUGHT SOME DIDN'T GET TURF THAT HAS SOME SPOTS ON IT.

>> SO, SO I THAT'S EXCITING, RIGHT?

BROUGHT SOME TURF THAT HAS SOME SPOTS ON IT.

THAT'S BUT, YEAH, ONE OF THE TURF EXCITING, RIGHT?

BUT, DISEASES THAT WE ARE STARTING TO SEE REALLY CROP UP NOW, AT LEAST ARE STARTING TO IN MY YARD IS BROWN PATCH.

CROP UP BROWN PATCH CAUSED BY A FUNGUS LEAST IN MY YARD RHIZOCTONIA SOLANI IS ONE OF N PATCH CAUSED BY THE MOST COMMON TURF DISEASES A FUNGUS IS ONE OF THE MOST IN THE WORLD.

F DISEASES IN THE IT AFFECTS ALMOST ALL TYPES OF TURF, BUT WE TEND TO SEE IT A ALMOST ALL TYPES LOT ON OUR FESCUES HERE IN NEBRASKA.

EE IT A LOT ON OUR FESCUES HERE AND SO WE HAVE A FEW DIFFERENT IN NEBRASKA.

AND SO WE HAVE BLADES THAT I HAD PULLED OUT FEW DIFIFRENT BLADES THAT I AND ONE OF THE DISTINGUISHING PULLED FEATURES OF THIS DISEASE ARE AND ONE OF THE THESE IRREGULAR LESIONS THAT F THIS DISEASE OCCUR ON THE BLADES THAT ALSO ARE THESE IRREGULAR L HAVE A KIND OF A PURPLISH OR OCCUR ON THE BROWNISH MARGIN, WHICH WE KIND HAVE KIND OF OF SEE RIGHT THERE.

PURPLISH OR BROWNISH MARGIN, WHICH WE KIND OF SEE RIGHT ON OCCASION, THESE LESIONS MAY ON COALESCE AND GO ACROSS THE OCCASION, ENTIRE LEAF, BUT GENERALLY, COALESCE AND GO ACROSS THEY ARE JUST KIND OF THIS ENTIRE LEAF, BUT GENERALLY, THEY IRREGULAR SHAPE, OFTEN KIND OF JUST KIND JAGGED POINTS.

THIS NOW, ONE OF THE NICE THINGS OFTEN KIND OF JAGGED ABOUT BROWN PATCH IS THAT IT TENDS NOT TO KILL THE CROWN.

AB IT ONLY REALLY AFFECTS THE LEAVES.

THE CROWN.

IT SO IT OFTEN IT WON'T NEGATIVELY AFFECTS THE IMPACT YOUR TURF NEXT YEAR, BUT WON'T YOU CAN HAVE PRETTY SEVERE PROBLEMS DURING A NORMAL GROWING YEAR, BUT YOU CAN HAVE PRETTY SEV SEASON.

MS DURING A NORMAL AND SO WE TEND NOT TO SEE THESE LESIONS OCCURRING IN OUR SHORTER SO MODE TURF, SO GOLF COURSES, TO SEE THESE LESIONS OCCURRING IN OUR GREENS, THINGS LIKE THAT, WE WON'T SEE THESE LESIONS.

SO GOLF INSTEAD THERE IS A KIND OF THAT, WE BROWNISH PURPLE, SMOKY COLORED SEE THESE RING THAT OCCURS, BUT THEN WE .

INSTEAD THERE IS A KIND OF GET THESE PATCHES THAT FORM.

BROWNISH PURPLE, SMOKY COLORED RING THAT THESE PATCHES CAN BE ANYWHERE BUT THEN FROM WE A COUPLE INCHES WIDE TO A COUPLE OF FEET IN DIAMETER, SO CAN BE TCHES CAN BE ANYWHERE FROM PRETTY DEVASTATING, ESPECIALLY OF FEET IN DIAMETER, SO CAN BE IF YOU REALLY CARE ABOUT HAVING A REALLY NICE LOOKING LAWN.

CARE ABOUT AS FAR AS CONTROL, THE BIGGEST A REALLY NICE LOOKING LAWN.

AS THING THAT WE CAN DO IS TO THE BIGGEST THING THAT WE KIND OF MANAGE OUR MOISTURE.

DO IS AND SO MAKING SURE THAT WE ARE R MOISTURE.

AND SO MAKIN ALLOWING THE TURF TO DRY OUT THAT WE ARE BETWEEN WATERINGS.

TURF TO DRY OUT THE OTHER THING THAT WE CAN DO BETWEEN IS TO MANAGE OUR THATCH LAYER, OTHER THING THAT WE CAN SO GOING IN AND DOING SOME OF THAT DETHATCHING TO REDUCE THE THATCH LAYER, SO GOING IN FUNGUS, THE FUNGAL INOCULUM NG SOME OF THAT THAT RESIDES IN THE THATCH.

DETHATCHING ALSO REDUCING THE THATCH LAYER HELPS THEM DRY OUT A LITTLE BIT, RESIDES IN T AS WELL.

ALSO FUNGICIDES CAN BE USED SUCH AS THE THATCH LAYER HELPS THEM DRY PROPICONAZOLE CAN BE EFFECTIVE, WELL.

FUNGICIDES CAN BE BUT IN MOST HOMEOWNER USED SUCH SITUATIONS, WE REALLY DON'T ECTIVE, RECOMMEND A WHOLE LOT OF IN MOST HOMEOWNER SITUATIONS, WE REALLY FUNGICIDE USE WITH THIS ONE MMEND A PRIMARILY BECAUSE AS THE TURF LOT OF GROWS, IT WILL GROW OUT OF THIS DISEASE.

SO WE DO SEE IT MORE -- WE SEE AS THE TURF GROWS, IT WILL GROW OUT OF THIS IT BE A LITTLE BIT MORE DO SEE DEVASTATING IN SOME OF OUR IT MORE -- WE S SLOWER GROWING LAWNS.

BE A LITTLE BIT MORE MAKE SURE WE ARE FERTILIZING DEVASTATING ADEQUATELY, MAKING SURE THE OF OUR SLOWER GROWI GRASS IS GROWING AT A RATE THAT WE WANT TO AND HOPEFULLY, THE FERTILIZING ADEQUATELY, MAKIN LESIONS WILL GROW UP AND YOU CAN MOW THEM OFF AND YOU WON'T HAVE H LOVE LASTING PROBLEMS FROM IT.

>> EXCELLENT.

CAN I HAVE A LOVELY BROWN PATCH ND AT HOME.

>> IT'S ALL OVER MY PLACE.

>> ALL RIGHT, JOHN, BLEMS FROM IT.

YOU DID GET THE MEMO.

>> EXCELLENT.

I HAVE A LUMP BROWN PATCH AT MY >> HE WORKED WATER IN, TALKED ABOUT MANAGING MOISTURE.

>> IT'S ALL >> I HAD TO SOMEHOW.

PLACE.

>> I DON'T KNOW IF PEOPLE CAN GET THE MEMO.

HEAR AT HOME, THERE IS A HUM IN BEHIND US BECAUSE IT'S POURING WATERING, THE RAIN.

>> I KNOW!

OISTURE.

I BEEN RUNNING UNDER THE BUILDING.

PEOPLE CAN HEAR AT >> IT SOUNDS LIKE WE WILL FLOOD IS A OFF AT ANY MINUTE.

IT'S POURING RAIN.

>> RI I WILL GO TO THE TOTAL OPPOSITE BUILDING.

>> OF WHAT WAYNE WAS TALKING ABOUT LIKE WE BECAUSE HE WAS TALKING ABOUT HIGH PRESSURE.

I'M GOING TO GO LOW PRESSURE.

I'M GOING TO TALK ABOUT DRIP NG ABOUT IRRIGATION AND SO THIS IS FOR THOSE TIMES WHEN IT'S NOT POURING THE RAIN AND YOU NEED TALKING TO WATER YOUR GARDEN.

SO, WE'RE ACTUALLY GOING TO CONTROL THE PRESSURE AND SO WE PUT OUR KIT TOGETHER.

RESSURE.

I THERE IS A FILTER HERE AND THEN IRRIGATION BECAUSE YOU NEED TO THIS PRESSURE REGULATOR SLOWS DOWN THE PRESSURE SO YOU ARE NOT THERE IS A KIT HITTING YOUR PLANTS WITH A HIGH PRESSURE BLAST.

A FILTER HERE AND THEN T IT GOES TO LITTLE HOSES AND REGULATOR SLOWS DOWN THE PRESSURE SO YOU THINGS THAT YOU RUN THROUGHOUT THE GARDEN.

HITTING YOUR PLANTS WITH A HIGH PRESSURE BLAST.

THIS IS A SUPPLY LINE.

HOSES AND THINGS THAT YOU RUN THROUGHOUT THE YOU PUNCTURE A LITTLE HOLE IN HERE AND YOU PUT A LITTLE IS CONNECTOR HERE AND YOU PUT UPPLY THAT AND RUN IT TO A PLANT OR YOU CAN EVEN GET A TAPE OR SOMETHING THAT ALREADY HAS HOLES IN IT AND YOU CAN JUST RUN IT THROUGH YOUR VEGETABLE GARDEN RUN AND YOUR FIELD.

A PLANT OR I AM USING THE DRIP EMITTERS PE THAT ALREADY HAS H SO THESE GO TOWARD THE END.

RUN IT'S THIS LITTLE CONTRAPTION T RIGHT HERE.

GARDEN AND YOUR THE REASON THAT I LIKE TO USING PROMOTE DRIP IRRIGATION IS EMITTERS THAT GO TO BECAUSE IT USES WAY LESS WATER THAN USING SAY USING .

IT SPRINKLERS, ETC.

HERE.

DRIP IRRIGATION USES WE TALK ABOUT DISEASES WHEN WE THAN SPLASH WATER ON OUR PLANTS, SO IT REALLY REDUCES DISEASES K ABOUT DISEASES WHEN BECAUSE WE ARE DELIVERING THAT SPLASH WATER ON WATER TO THE BASE OF THE PLANT IT REALLY R AND NOT SPLASHING UP AND WE DISEASES USE A LOT LESS WATER.

ARE DELIVERING THE WATER TO THE IT'S HONESTLY, JUST A LITTLE BIT ASE OF THE PLANT OF A DRIP.

AND WE ARE USING A LOT LESS SO WE CAN ACTUALLY -- YOU KNOW, IT'S HONESTLY, JUST A LITTLE WE CAN DEMONSTRATE HERE, I OF A DRIP.

SO WE CAN -- YOU THINK.

DEMO LET'S SEE.

>> IF YOU ARE GOING TO SPIT IN THAT THING, THAT IS GOING TO BE REALLY GOOD TELEVISION.

[ LAUGHTER ] WE CAN SEE IT DRIP.

>> RIGHT.

AND SO -- IT DRIP.

[ LAUGHTER ] AND IT'S THE RAIN.

WE HAVE A LEAK IN THE CEILING.

'S WE CAN CONTROL THIS.

RAIN.

THIS IS A GALLON PER HOUR.

IF THIS DRIPPER RAN FOR AN HOUR, OL THIS.

IT WOULD PUT A GALLON OF WATER A GALLON PER IN A SPOT RIGHT THERE.

IF AND WE CAN CONTROL OUR WATER.

RAN FOR SOAKER HOSES ARE HARDER TO CONTROL BECAUSE THEY DON'T OULD PUT PRESSURE REGULATE AND YOU HAVE MORE WATER AT THE START THAN ATER IN A SPOT RIGHT AT THE END, AND SPRINKLERS, THERE.

SOAKER HOSES THEY GO EVERYWHERE SO YOU CAN O AC TUALLY DELIVER THE WATER RIGHT TO THE PLANT AND YOUR WATER BILL YOU HAVE WILL BE MUCH LOWER.

WATER >> EXCELLENT.

AT THE START AND THE I DON'T KNOW HOW THE REST OF THE SHOW IS GOING TO GO --.

>> WE KEEP YOU ON YOUR TOES, REGULATORS DRIVER THE WATER TO THE PLANT AND YOU WILL HAVE A KIM.

>> BUT LET'S START WITH SOME PICTURES, WAYNE.

BUT LET'S THIS FIRST ONE, HE WANTS TO KNOW E WHAT IS THIS?

FIRST HE FOUND IT IN BELLEVUE IN A ONE, HE WANTS TO KNOW WHAT IS HEAVILY WOODED AREA.

HE FOUND IT MY RESPONSE WHEN I SAID IT WAS IN BEBEEVUE IN A HILLY GOING TO BE ON THE SHOW, IT AREA.

LOOKS LIKE A BABY ALLIGATOR MY ON A BRANCH.

WHAT IS THAT?

SAID IT WA >> A FEW TOO MANY LEGS FOR THAT.

>> I KNOW, I DID COUNT TO MAKE SURE IT WASN'T.

>> YOU CAN'T SEE THE PROLEGS ABY ALLIGATOR IN THE MIDDLE.

ON A TH EY'RE NOT TRUE LEGS GRIPPING ONTO THAT.

IT HAS FOUR PAIRS.

ON THIS IS ONE OF THOSE CATOCALA T. >> I KNOW.

CATERPILLARS, SO UNDERWING >> PROLEGS, THIS IS GRIPPING ON TO MOTHS.

THAT, THIS THEY ARE VERY BROWN TO GRAY MOTHS AND THEN THEY'LL HAVE A BRIGHT COLOR, LIKE PINK, KOA CATERPILLA ORANGE, YELLOW, RED UNDERNEATH.

MOTHS.

THEY ARE BROWN, >> THEY REALLY ARE FOUR, FIVE GRAY MOTHS AND THEN HAVE INCHES LONG AND LOOK LIKE THAT.

COLOR, PINK, >> THEY CAN BE.

H. >> THEY >> ALL RIGHT.

GOOD GUYS OR BAD GUYS?

FOUR, >> UH -- ENJOY THE SHOW.

>> OKAY.

THAT.

>> CAN BE.

>> GOOD GUYS OR AND THEN YOUR NEXT ONE HERE IS S?

>> ENJOY THE S YELLOW CATERPILLARS EATING RHUBARB.

IS YELLOW THIS IS NORTHWEST OF SEWARD.

THEY WERE EATING THE UNDERSIDES.

SHE SAYS THEY WERE VERY HUNGRY.

THEY WERE SHE WONDERS IF THIS WILL RUN ITS COURSE.

E S THEY HAVE ABOUT 80 FEET OF RHUBARB.

WON >> THAT'S A LOT OF RHUBARB!

RUN ITS THAT'S YELLOW WOOLY BEAR.

.

THEY HAVE ABOUT 8 THEY CAN RANGE FROM YELLOW TO OF RHUBARB.

>> THAT'S A ALL THE WAY TO BROWNISH AND RHUBARB.

THAT'S YELLOW WHOOLEY BLACKISH IN COLOR BEAR.

DE PENDNDG ON THE STAGE AND THE CONDITION THAT THEY ARE IN.

BROWNISH AND BLACK-ISH IN COLOR THEY LOVE RHUBARB.

I SEE THEM ON IT ALL THE TIME, THAT THEY PICK THEM OFF.

IN.

THEY THAT WAY YOU CAN PROMOTE THAT RHUBARB.

I PLANT TO BE PUTTING INTO THE M ON IT ALL THE ROOT CROWN AND DELIVERING MORE PICK THEM DELICIOUS RHUBARB FOR NEXT YEAR.

THAT WAY YOU I SEE THESE PICTURES FLASHING PROMOTE THE ACROSS AS I'M TRYING TO TALK ABOUT THE RHUBARB, BUT THEY ARE ALL THE SAME THING.

>> RIGHT, EXACTLY.

THIS IS ACTUALLY ONE WAS ROOT CROWN AND DELIVER WOODBINE, IOWA AND THIS IS ON RHUBARB.

I SEE AN HYDRANGEA IN GRAND ISLAND.

FLASHING ACROSS, BUT THEY ARE ALL >> THEY FEED ON A LOT OF HING DIFFERENT THINGS.

IS THEY'LL EVEN GET INTO SOYBEAN IN IOWA AND THIS IS ON IN A ROW CROP.

>> CONTROL?

HYDRANGEA.

>> THEY FEED ON A LOT OF DIFFERENT >> PICK THEM OFF IS PROBABLY THE EASIEST WAY.

GET THEY POSE NO DANGER TO YOU IF YOU PICK THEM OFF BY HAND.

TH ERE'S USUALLY NOT ENOUGH OF THEM TO --.

>> EVEN ON 80 FEET OF RHUBARB, YOU WILL PROBABLY BE OKAY.

WA >> YEAH, YOU MIGHT BE ALL RIGHT.

YOU >> ALL RIGHT, ALL RIGHT.

OFF BY H AND I ASSUME A KIND OF A RAPID ON MOVE FROM CATERPILLAR INTO RHUBARB, YOU THAT COCOON?

BE OKAY.

>> THEY ARE GETTING CLOSE.

THEY SHOULD BE ABOUT AN INCH AND CATERPILLAR TO C A HALF OR SO WHEN THEY ARE FULLY HEY ARE GROWN.

GET >> THANK YOU, WAYNE.

YOU HAVE SEVERAL PICTURES THAT SO WHEN THEY ARE LO OK AN AWFUL LOT ALIKE, KYLE.

>> ALL RIGHT.

>> THE FIRST ONE, THIS IS A ZUCCHINI.

LOOK WE HAD A LITTLE BIT OF A ALIKE, KYLE.

FIRST ONE, THIS IS FOLLOW-UP EMAIL FROM WHEN ZUCCHINI.

THIS CAME IN.

HE WAS TREATING WITH BAKING SODA EMAIL FROM WHEN THIS CAME FOUR TEASPOONS PER GALLON OF HE WATER SPRAYED DAILY AND HE SAID HE DID THAT ABOUT TEN TIMES WITH AND IT'S GOTTEN BETTER.

THIS IS ON ZUCCHINI.

GALLON OF WATER SPRAYED DAILY A WHAT IS THIS?

DID >> THIS LOOKS LIKE POWDERY AND IT'S MILDEW, VERY, VERY COMMON.

POWDERY MILDEWS AFFECT PRETTY MUCH ALL OF OUR PLANTS, BUT WE VERY JUST GET THIS WHITE POWDERY GROWTH UP ON THE TOP.

MON.

WITH OUR CUCURBITS, IT OFTEN MILDEW WILL KIND OF FOLLOW THE VEINS OF OUR PLANTS, WHERE WE HAVE MOISTURE THAT GET POOLS AND SO THAT'S KIND OF WHY WHITE POWDER AT THE WE HAVE THAT COOL KIND OF WHITE VARIEGATION ALONG THE VEINS WITH OUR CURCUTE IT HERE.

IS AS FAR AS BAKING SODA CONTROL, I THINK FOUR TEASPOONS IS A LITTLE BIT LIGHT, BUT IF YOU HAVE BEEN AR AS BAKING SEEING GOOD CONTROL WITH IT, CONTROL, I THINK THEN THAT'S GREAT.

TEASPOONS IS A BIT GENERALLY, WE RECOMMEND ANYWHERE LIGHT, BUT IF YOU HAVE BEEN SEEING GOOD CONTROL WITH IT, THAT'S FROM THREE TO FOUR TABLESPOON OF GENERALLY, WE RECOMMEND ANYWHER BAKING SODA PER GALLON OF WATER.

FROM THREE T BUT IF YOU HAVE A SEVERE OON OF BAKING SODA PER GALLON OF OUTBREAK OF POWDERY MILDEW, ADD WATER.

BUT IF THREE TEASPOONS OF A A HORTICULTURAL OUTBREAK OF OIL TO THAT BAKING SODA MIX AND MILDEW, ADD YOU TEND TO GET A LOT BETTER CONTROL FOR IT.

OONS OF >> EXCELLENT.

ORTICULTURAL OIL TO THAT YOUR NEXT ONE IS CANTALOUPE LEAVES IN RANDOLPH.

A LOT BETTER CONTROL FOR IT.

>> EXCELLENT SHE WONDERS WHY HER LEAVES ARE NEXT DOING THIS?

ONE IS >> AGAIN, IT'S THE POWDERY MILDEW, EXCESS MOISTURE WITH THE SHE WONDERS HEAT, FUNGUS CAN VERY EASILY DOING THIS?

>> AGAIN, IT'S T GROW.

AGAIN, SAME CONTROL.

JUST MANAGE THE MOISTURE AND IF FUNGUS CAN YOU WANT TO, USE A BAKING SODA SAME AND CONTROL.

MANAGE THE MOI HORTICULTURAL OIL MIX.

>> ALL RIGHT.

AND YOUR NEXT TWO PICTURES ARE SODA CUCUMBERS, NORTHEAST LINCOLN, HORTICULTURAL OIL MIX.

>> ALL RIGHT.

AND YOUR NEXT TWO PICTURES JUST THE ONE PLANT.

SHE DOESN'T SEE ANY INSECTS, CUMBERS, NORTHEAST LINCOLN, JUST THE OTHERS LOOK HEALTHY THE ONE PLANT.

AT THIS TIME.

>> OKAY.

SHE DOESN'T SEE THIS COULD BE A FEW THINGS.

INSECTS, THE OTHERS L UNFORTUNATELY, A LOT OF OUR .

>> OKAY.

THIS COULD BE A FEW THINGS.

DISEASES CAN LOOK VERY SIMILAR, RTUNATELY, A LOT OF OUR JUST WITH THESE GENERAL LIGHT OOK VERY SIMILAR, JUST TAN SPOTS WITH A CHLOROTIC HALO AROUND THEM.

GENERAL I THINK THIS IS ANGULAR LIGHT TAN SPOTS WITH A LEAF SPOT.

SO THIS IS CAUSED BY A BACTERIA, PSEUDOMONAS SYRINGAE.

SO THIS IS THIS BACTERIUM THRIVES IN KIND BY A OF WARM, MOIST CONDITIONS, WHICH THIS BACTERI WE HAVE HAD A LOT OF NOW.

WARM, MOIST CONDITIONS, WHICH WE HAVE HAD NOT A WHOLE LOT OF GOOD CONTROLS OF FOR ANGULAR LEAF SPOT IF IT A WHOLE L BACTERIAL.

S FOR HOWEVER, IT ALSO COULD BE DOWNY ANGULAR LEAF SPOT IF IT MILDEW.

DOWNY MILDEW IS ANOTHER VERY DOWNY MILDEW.

DAMAGING DISEASE OF A LOT OF OUR DOWNY MILDEW IS ANOTHER VERY CUCURBITS THAT CONTROLS FOR THAT DAMAGING DISEASE OF A LOT OF OFTEN DO REQUIRE A FUNGICIDE RB IT IS THAT CONTROL APPLICATION OR A COPPER-BASED THAT OFTEN TO PRODUCT CAN WORK WELL FOR DOWNY A MILDEW CONTROL.

TH E FACT YOU'RE ONLY SEEING IT PRODUCT CAN ON ONLY ONE PLANT MAKES ME LEAN WORK WELL FOR DOWNY MORE TOWARDS THE ANGULAR CONTROL.

TH LEAF SPOT.

YOU ARE WITH DOWNY MILDEW, THAT WOULD SEEING IT ON LIKELY HIT MOST OF THE CUCURBITS ONLY ONE THAT ARE IN THE AREA.

ES ME LEAN >> ALL RIGHT AND YOU HAVE ARDS ONE FINAL ONE.

THE THIS IS RHUBARB IN PLATTSMOUTH.

SPOT.

>> YOU HAVE ONE FINAL NEW PLANTS PLANTED IN MAY AND TWO TO THREE WEEKS LATER SHE HAD ONE.

THIS IS SMALL INSECTS ALL OVER THE CROWNS IN AND LEAVES AND EVERYTHING DIED NEW P OFF.

TWO TO SHE IS WONDERING DOES THIS LOOK MORE LIKE CROWN ROT TO YOU?

INSECTS ON THE CROWNS AND >> YEAH, I THINK IT IS A AND EVERYTHING DIED CROWN ROT.

WHAT EXACTLY IS THE CAUSE, I'M NOT SURE.

MORE IT COULD BE ONE OF OUR WATER YOU?

>> YEA MOLD, SUCH AS PHYTOPHTHERA.

WE ALSO HAVE SOME BACTERIAL CROWN ROTS OF RHUBARB, AS WELL.

AS FAR AS THE INSECTS, PRETTY ROT.

SURE THOSE ARE JUST ROLLY THE INSECTS, PRETTY POLLIES.

JUST TO MY KNOWLEDGE THEY ARE JUST ROL FUN THINGS FOR KIDS TO PLAY .

TO WITH.

MY KNOWLEDGE THEY ARE JUST FUN THINGS I HAVE NEVER HEARD OF ROLLY TO PLAY POLLIES CAUSING ANY KIND OF HEARD DAMAGE.

WAYNE CAN CORRECT ME IF I AM WRONG.

AUSING >> I HAVEN'T REALLY EITHER.

THEY ARE MORE OF AN OBNOXIOUS NUISANCE FOR PEOPLE THAN THEY ME IF I AM ARE A REAL ISSUE FOR OUR PLANTS.

EN'T EITHER.

THEY ARE >> EXCELLENT.

ORE OF AN ALL RIGHT, THANK YOU, KYLE.

OBNOXIOUS NUISANCE FOR PEOPLE YOUR FIRST THREE PICTURES, JOHN THEY ARE A R COME FROM ATLANTIC, IOWA.

ISSUE FOR OUR PLANTS.

A TEN-YEAR-OLD MAPLE LOOKS THANK YOU, KYL VERY STRESSED, NOT LUSH, OUR FIRST THREE P AND LEAVES ARE SHRIVELED.

FROM JOHN IT WAS DEER SCRAPED.

IOWA.

THEY'VE BEEN VERY DRY.

TEN-YEAR-OLD MAPLE LOOKS THIS IS WHAT WE ARE SEEING ON STRESSED AND LEA TRUNK AND FOLIAGE, ANY THOUGHTS THEY ARE DEER SCRAPE ON THIS POOR MAPLE?

>> YEAH, I THINK THAT'S TRUNK AND FOLIAGE, JUST WEIGHT STRESS.

THOUGHTS ON THIS POOR SO WE SEE THAT DAMAGE ON THE TRUNK.

AY WE SEE THE LEAFING OUT LOOKS THAT DABBLING ON VERY THIN.

TRUNK.

THAT COULD BE FROM THE DAMAGE FROM THE TRUNK.

A LOT OF TIMES WHEN WE SEE THIN CROWNS LIKE THAT, VE IT COULD ALSO BE A ROOT ISSUE.

BE FROM THE SOME SORT OF GIRDLING ROOT.

ABOUT 10 TO 15 YEARS IS ABOUT THE RIGHT TIME IN THE LIFESPAN THAT WE START SEEING IF WE T COULD BE PLANTED IT INCORRECTLY THAT WE ISSUE.

WILL GET GIRDLING THAT WILL STRANGLE THE TREE WHEN IT -- TO 15 ONCE IT GROWS OUT.

START TO IT COULD BE -- I THINK, IT'S JUST GOT SO MANY IF IT WAS PLANTED INCORRECTLY POTENTIAL ISSUES THAT IT'S SEE A SHORT-TERM TREE.

STRANGLES THE TREE WHEN >> ALL RIGHT, THANKS, JOHN.

OUT.

IT HAS YOUR NEXT TWO PICTURES ARE A SUES THAT I THINK IT'S A SHORT-TERM TRE CAIRO, NEBRASKA VIEWER.

JOHN.

YOUR NEXT THIS IS THE FIRST YEAR PICTURES ARE GROWING GARLIC.

SHE PLANTED IT IN THE FALL.

SHE HAS A BULB WITH A BULB KAY ROW NEBRASKA VIEWER.

AND SHE'S WONDERING, IS THIS ER FIRST TIME NORMAL OR DID SHE DO SOMETHING WRONG?

NTING >> YEAH, THIS GARLIC, EVEN THE BABIES ARE HAVING BABIES HERE AND SO HARD NECK VARIETIES PRODUCE WHAT'S CALLED A SCAPE.

IT'S LIKE A GROWTH THAT COMES B OUT THE TOP AND IT HAS LITTLE BULB.

>> HARD NECK VARIETIES PRODUCE WHAT'S CALLED FLOWERS OR BULBILS THAT ARE IT'S LIKE A GROWTH THAT COMES LIKE LITTLE TINY GARLIC BULBS.

TALK ABOUT AND IT HAS FLOWERS THA BECAUSE OF SOME SORT OF LIKE LITTLE WEATHER STRESS OR SOME OTHER TINY GARLIC BULBS.

BECAUS ISSUE, THE SCAPE DIDN'T DEPLOY.

STRESS OR SOME OTHER IT JUST SORT OF STUCK THE SCAPE IN THE STEM.

DEPLOY.

AS IT DEVELOPED, IT JUST SPLIT JUST SORT THAT STEM OPEN.

STUCK IN T IT'S JUST A WEATHER ISSUE, SO STEM.

AS IT THE GARLIC IS JUST FINE.

DEVELOPED, YOU COULD TECHNICALLY PLANT IT JUST SPL THOSE LITTLE BULBILS, THAT STEM OPEN.

BUT IT'LL TAKE TWO OR THREE IT'S JUST A W YEARS TO GET AN ACTUAL GARLIC CLOVE.

>> EXCELLENT.

BUT THE GARLIC ALL RIGHT.

JUST THANK YOU, JOHN.

BACK IN THE '90S, REGGI CARLSON PLANT THE COULD BE SEEN RIGHT HERE BULBS, BUT IT ON "BACKYARD FARMER"” AS THE HOST OF THE PROGRAM FOR A TAKE T NUMBER OF YEARS.

YEARS.

IT APPEARS SHE TOOK HER TIME >> THANKS.

HERE SERIOUSLY BECAUSE HER BACK IN ACREAGE IN LINCOLN IS REALLY BEAUTIFUL.

'90S REGGIE SAID SHE HAD PLENTY REGGIE CAN OF HELP FROM HER HUSBAND, DOUG.

BE SO LET'S TAKE A FEW MINUTES TO CHECK OUT HER HOME.

SEEN ♪ ER."

SHE MUST HE TAKEN THE PROGRAM SERIOUSLY BECAUSE HER BACKYARD IS BEAUTIFUL.

REGGIE SAYS SHE GOT HELP FROM HER >> WE STARTED WITH PRETTY MUCH A HUSBAND, DOUG.

BL ANK CANVAS, HOWEVER THE PROPERTY ITSELF HAS GOT SOME >> WE E ARTED WITH INNATE QUALITIES THAT REALLY PRETTY MUCH A BLANK WERE CHALLENGES.

THE PROPERTY ITSELF HAS GOT SOME INNA AND SO WE HAD TO COME UP WITH SORT OF A PLAN TO FIGURE OUT WE HAD TO COME UP WITH SORT OF WHAT WE ARE GOING TO CULTIVATE A PLAN TO FIGURE OUT AND WHAT WE ARE GOING TO JUST GOING TO CU CONTROL BECAUSE WE COULDN'T HANDLE EVERYTHING.

TO JUST CONTROL BECAUSE ALTHOUGH, AT FIRST, I THOUGHT I COULD AND THAT'S A MISTAKE.

, AT FIRST, I THOUGHT SO MY ADVICE IF YOU ARE LOOKING COULD AND THAT'S A MISTAKE.

TO, YOU KNOW, GO AND MOVE TO AN SO MY ADVICE IF YOU ARE LOOKING TO, YO ACREAGE OR BUY ONE OR HOWEVER, GO AND MOVE TO THAT YOU THINK ABOUT IT AS A REALLY LONG-TERM PROJECT.

HOWEVER, THAT YOU YOU ARE NOT GOING TO GO PUT UP UT IT AS A REALLY L SOME TREES AND PLANT 1,000 HOSTAS AND EVERYTHING IS GOING TO BE BEAUTIFUL.

SOME TR IT WILL TAKE SOME TIME AND YOU ,000 WILL GO THROUGH SOME CHANGES, TOO.

UTIFUL.

IT WILL TAKE SOME WHEN WE WERE LOOKING TO BUY THIS WILL GO PLACE, I WAS JUST DELIGHTED GES, TOO.

THERE WAS A WATER FEATURE THAT O RAN THROUGH THE PROPERTY.

THIS WATER FEATURE WAS REALLY PLACE, I AN OPEN STORM WATER SYSTEM.

DELIGHTED THERE WAS A W I DID NOT KNOW THAT THROUGH THE PRO AT THAT TIME.

I THOUGHT IT WAS A CREEK, ATER FEATURE WAS AN BUT IT ISN'T.

SYSTEM.

I IT'S A SEWER.

KNOW THAT AT THAT AT THE TIME WE COULD LITERALLY I THOUGHT IT WAS HOP OVER IT.

IT ISN'T.

IT WASN'T A VERY BIG DEAL.

SEW THERE WAS A CREEK RUNNING NORTH COULD AND SOUTH AND THERE WAS A RUNOFF IT.

IT WASN'T A BIG DEAL.

RUNNING EAST AND WEST, SO THERE WAS A CREEK RUNNING NOR PERPENDICULAR WATER FEATURES.

AND SOUTH AND A RUNOFF RUNNING EAST THERE WAS A HUGE SLOPE THAT ONE WEST, SO PERPENDICULAR WATER FEATURES.

THER COULD BARELY GET, YOU KNOW, A WAS A HUGE SLOPE THAT ONE COULD B MOWER UP AND DOWN THE SLOPE.

KNOW, SLOWLY, BUT SURELY WE HAD TO MOWER UP AND COME UP WITH LANDSCAPE PLANTINGS SLOWLY, BUT THAT WOULD WORK WITH WE HAD TO THOSE AREAS.

MY HUSBAND, DOUG, HAS DONE AN AMAZING JOB OF FIXING PLACES WITH LANDSCAPE PLANTINGS THAT WOULD WORK WITH THAT WERE REALLY PROBLEMATIC.

AREAS.

MY HUSBAND HAS DONE AN ONE OF THOSE PLACES IS WHERE FIXING PLACES THAT WATER HAS RUN DOWN AND WAS WERE REALLY PROBLEMATIC.

ONE OF THOSE PLACES IS RUNNING OVER A DECK, OVER A RUN SWIMMING POOL DECK THAT WE HAD.

WAS SO HE DUG A HUGE DRENCH.

MMING POOL DECK THAT WE HAD.

IT KIND OF LOOKS LIKE A DRY WATER BED TYPE OF THING, BUT WHAT IT DOES IS IT COLLECTS THE WATER AND SLOWS THINGS DOWN AND BUT WHAT MAKES IT POSSIBLE FOR ME TO WATER A ACTUALLY HAVE A GARDEN THERE.

IF YOU VISIT ME, YOU WILL GARDEN THERE.

IF Y RECOGNIZE THAT THERE ARE ABOUT ME, YOU WILL 45,000 HOSTAS.

THAT THERE ARE ABOUT AND THE REASON FOR THAT IS THAT 45,000 HOSTAS.

AND THE REASON FOR THEY ALWAYS LOOK GOOD.

THEY ALWAYS THEY LOOK GOOD WHEN THEY ARE COMING UP.

THEY LOOK HALFWAY GOOD WHEN THEY UP.

ARE FLOWERING.

AND THEN YOU CUT ALL THE FLOWERS G. OFF AND THEY L LK BEAUTIFUL ALL CUT ALL THE THE WAY INTO THE FROST.

BESIDES THAT, THEY REQUIRE BEAUTIFUL ALL THE ALMOST NO WATER.

FROST.

WE HAVE NO UNDERGROUND WATER THAT, THEY REQUIRE ALMOST NO WATER.

SPRINKLERS OR ANYTHING LIKE THAT IN THIS YARD.

O MY LEAST FAVORITE THING IS THE WATER LAWN, BUT IT'S JUST SOMETHING THAT IN YOU HAVE TO DO IF YOU'RE AN URBAN ACREAGE, PRETTY MUCH.

ORITE THING IS THE LAWN, BUT IT'S SOMETHING YOU AS I APPROACH MY GOLDEN YEARS -- YOU ARE IN URBAN ACREAGE PRETTY [ LAUGHTER ] AS I I AM MOVING TOWARDS SHRUBS, MORE APPROACH AND MORE SHRUBBERY, PLEASE.

UGHTER ] I AM MOVING TOWARDS SHRUBS, I THINK THAT IS WISE BECAUSE WE AND WON'T LIVE HERE FOREVER AND THINK ANYONE WHO MOVES TO THIS PLACE BECAUSE WE WON'T IS AT FIRST GOING TO BE AND ANYONE WHO MOVES TO THIS OVERWHELMED OR NEEDS TO, YOU AT FIRST GOING TO BE KNOW, HIRE A GARDNER QUICK BECAUSE I SPEND PROBABLY NEEDS TO, YOU IN THE SUMMER, IT'S ALMOST A FULL-TIME JOB.

AND SO MY PLAN IS TO MAKE T A FULL-TIME JOB.

EVERYTHING AS EASY AS POSSIBLE.

A LOT OF NATIVE GRASSES OR POSSIBLE.

A LOT ORNAMENTAL GRASSES I SHOULD SAY, OR NOT NECESSARILY NATIVE.

NAMENTAL GRASSES I SHOULD A LOT OF SHRUBS THAT ARE SAY, NOT NECESSARILY NATIVE.

A LOT OF SHRUBS BEAUTIFUL, HOSTAS, FLOWERS THAT BEAUTIFUL, HOLD THEIR OWN, BUT STAY IN HOLD PLACE AND MAKE IT EASY FOR THE BUT STAY NEXT PERSON TO GET USED TO.

PLACE AND MAKE IT EASY FOR THE TO GET USED TO.

>> WE WANT TO SAY THANKS TO REGGIE FOR >> WE WANT TO SAY THANKS TO S REGGI FOR SHOWING US THAT BEAUTIFUL LANDSCAPE AND IT REALLY IS AMAZING.

IT'S AROUND THE CORNER FROM ME, SO I KNOW WHAT IT LOOKS LIKE FOR REAL.

T IT LOOKS LIKE FOR WAYNE, YOUR FIRST PICTURE IS -- FIRST PICTURE SAW THIS BUG ON A ROSE.

S -- SAW THIS BUG ON A AND HE SAID IT LOOKS A LITTLE BIT LIKE IT HAS AN AZTEC MASK ON LOOKS A LITTLE ITS BACK.

WHAT IS THIS?

>> THIS IS A SPINED SOLDIER BUG ON ITS BACK.

WH NYMPH.

THIS IS ONE OF THE GOOD GUYS.

IS A YOU WANT TO KEEP HIM AROUND.

SPINE SOLDIER B HE'S GOING TO EAT A LOT OF E OF THE G CATERPILLARS AND OTHER SOFT YOU WANT TO KEE BODIED THINGS THAT MIGHT BE WILLING TO DO DAMAGE TO THE HE WILL EAT A LOT O ROSE.

>> SPINED...?

CATERPILLARS AND SOFT BO >> SOLDIER BUG NYMPH.

MIGHT IT'S THE NYMPH SO IT -- THAT'S WHY IT'S GOT THAT CRAZY COLOR PATTERN ON IT.

>> EXCELLENT.

NICE TO KNOW.

D -- THIS IS A POLK, NEBRASKA VIEWER >> SOLDIER BUG NYMPH.

WHO FOUND THIS GUY IN >> EXCELLENT.

NICE TO THE GARAGE.

WHAT IS THIS SPIDER?

IS A POLK, NEBRASK >> IT'S ONE OF OUR WOLF SPIDERS AGAIN, PREDATORY THAT EAT A LOT GARAGE.

OF OTHER THINGS THAT YOU MAY NOT WHAT IS THIS SPIDER?

>> IT'S ONE NECESSARILY WANT AROUND, SO IF WOLF SPIDERS THAT YOU CAN, LET IT BE.

>> NOPE, NOT MY FAVORITE.

HINGS THAT YOU MAY NOTOT NECESSARILY WANT YOUR NEXT TWO PICTURES, WE DON'T SO LET IT B KNOW WHERE THIS VIEWER IS FROM, NOT MY FAVORITE.

BUT THIS PARTICULAR INSECT HAS ICTURES, WE DON'T KNOW WHERE THIS VIEWER IS BEEN ON HER DWARF JOE-PYE-WEED FLOWER BUDS FOR SEVERAL DAYS.

PARTICULAR INSECT HAS BEEN ON SHE SAYS IT DID NOT BRING ANY FRIENDS.

WEED IS IT EATING OR WHAT IS IT FOR DOING?

DAYS.

>> THAT'S A WHEEL BUG NYMPH, IT DID WHEEL BUGS ARE OUR LARGEST ASSASSIN BUG THAT WE HAVE EATING OR WHAT IS IT AT LEA IN NEBRASKA.

DOING.

>> THAT'S A WHEEL BUG I WILL REFERENCE NEBRASKA.

NYM IT'S ONE OF THE GOOD GUYS.

IT'S WAITING FOR SOMETHING TO COME ALONG AND VISIT THAT FLOWER IN BUD AND ONCE IT STARTS FLOWERING HAVE A MEAL.

>> ALL RIGHT, EXCELLENT.

>> IT'S WAITING FOR THE BUFFET TO OPEN.

[ LAUGHTER ] >> EXACTLY.

YEAH, NOT QUITE 8:00.

BUFFET TO OPEN.

[ LAUGHTER ] >> NOT KYLE, YOUR FIRST ONE IS A PRETTY QUITE 8:00.

SIMPLE QUESTION FROM THIS YOUR FIRST ONE IS PRETT VIEWER -- THEY WANT TO KNOW WHAT SIMPLE QUESTION THIS FUNGUS IS.

>> YOU ARE LUCKY.

O KNOW WHAT THIS IS A REALLY COOL ONE.

GUS IS.

>> YOU ARE LUCKY.

BUT THIS IS A HAIRY STEMONITIS, REALLY COOL ONE.

BUT THIS IS ALSO KNOWN AS A CHOCOLATE TUBE SLIME MOLD.

HAIRY STEM NITES, JUST ANOTHER ONE OF OUR SLIME MOLDS THAT SHOWS UP WITH A CHOCOLATE TUBE SL MOISTURE.

ST ANOTHER ONE OF OUR WHEN IT DRIES OUT, IT WILL KIND UP WITH OF POOF AND GO AWAY.

WHEN IT DRIES OUT, SO, ENJOY IT WHILE IT'S THERE.

OF POOF AND GO AWAY.

>> I DON'T THINK WE HAVE EVER T WHILE IT'S SEEN THIS ONE.

>> I DON'T THINK WE >> NO, I HAVE NEVER EITHER.

SEEN THIS ONE LIKE I SAID, I AM JEALOUS.

>> NO, I HAVE >> ALL RIGHT.

R. THIS IS AN OMAHA VIEWER AND IT COULD HAVE BEEN FROM MULTIPLE PLACES IN THE STATE -- WHY ARE THE RED BUD LEAVES CURLING?

OMAHA >> IT COULD HAVE BEEN HERE ON ARE THE CAMPUS, AS WELL, THIS IS HERBICIDE INJURY TO THE RED COLORING?

>> IT COU BEDS, VERY, VERY COMMON.

ON CAMPUS AS THEY ARE HIGHLY SUSCEPTIBLE TO THIS IS HERBICID A LOT OF OUR GROWTH REGULATOR THE RED HERBICIDES.

VERY OFTEN.

THEY ARE VERY THAT'S WHAT YOU GET THAT LE TO LEATHERY APPEARANCE, YEP, OUR GROWTH REGULATOR NOTHING TO DO ABOUT IT.

HERBICIDES.

THAT'S WHAT YOU >> ALL RIGHT.

GET THA WE GOT YOUR NEXT TWO PICTURES LEATHERY APPEARANCE, YEP, NO FROM ONE VIEWER, BUT WE HAD TWO IT.

>> ALL RIGHT.

WE GOT Y OR THREE OTHERS SEND IN THIS WO PICTURES FROM ONE VIEWER, SAME QUESTION -- IT IS HAD TWO DISCOLORATION AND YELLOWING OF SEND BARBERRY, THEY HAVE BEEN SAME HEALTHY AND THEY'RE IS SEVERAL YEARS OLD.

YELLOWING OF THEY ARE WONDERING WHAT THIS IS.

DIEBACK IN THE CENTER AND B SEVERE DIEBACK NOW AND STRANGE AIRY, THEY HAVE BEEN HEALTHY A THINGS GOING ON.

OLD.

THEY >> YEAH, THIS ONE IS WONDERING WHAT THIS IS.

INTERESTING.

IN BARBERRY IS GENERALLY FAIRLY RESISTANT TO A LOT OF OUR DISEASES.

>> THIS IS ANTHRACNOSE IS ONE FUNGUS THAT CAN CAUSE SOME FOLIAR LEAFSPOTS BAR BARRY IS LIKE THIS, BUT THE WAY THAT WE FAIRLY RESISTANT TO HA VE THE KIND OF THE PURPLING BUT THE WAY AND T WE HAVE KIND THE YELLOWING AND EVEN DIEBACK THE IN THE MIDDLE MAKES ME WONDER IF THERE IS NOT SOME SORT OF WILT THAT'S GOING ON.

MAYBE A VERTICILLIUM WILT.

MIDDLE MAKES ME WONDER IF OFTEN, PLANTS CAN OVERCOME IT IF SOME SORT OF WILT GOING THEY ARE OTHERWISE VIGOROUS.

A BUT AS PLANTS GET OLDER AND AS OFTEN PLANTS CAN OVE THEY EXPERIENCE OTHER STRESSES THEY ARE OTHERWISE SUCH AS THE CRAZY WINTER THAT WE VIGOROUS.

BUT AS PLANTS GET OLDER HAVE HAD, SOME OF THOSE WILT AS THEY EXPERIENCE OTHER STRESSES SUCH DISEASES CAN BECOME A LITTLE BIT MORE EVIDENT.

DISEASES SO THAT'S MY THOUGHT FOR THAT.

BIT MORE EVIDENT.

SO HOWEVER, I AM REALLY NOT SURE.

THOUGHT FOR I RECOMMEND SENDING A SAMPLE TO THAT.

HOWEVER, I AM REA THE CLINIC IF YOU CAN.

RECOMMEND >> ALL RIGHT, THANKS, KYLE.

SENDING A SAMPLE TO THE CLINIC IF YOU CAN.

WE HAVE A BIT OF VEGETABLES FOR >> THANKS, KYLE.

WE HAVE YOU, JOHN, BECAUSE YOU LIKE F VEGETABLES FOR YOU, VEGETABLES THAN TREES.

BECAUSE >> YES, I DO.

YOU LIKE THANK YOU.

>> THIS IS A VIEWER WHO IS >> YES, I DO.

THANK YOU.

>> THIS IS A VIE ASKING WHY SOME OF HIS PEPPERS LOOK LIKE THIS AND OTHERS ARE SOME OF HIS PEPPE FINE AND THEY ARE ALL COLORED THIS AND OTHERS PEPPERS.

AND THEY ANY IDEA?

I KNOW SOME OF THESE MAY FALL TO COLORED KYLE, BUT YOU ARE KIND OF THE VEGETABLE GUY.

KNO >> RIGHT.

WHEN I ZOOMED IN, THE LEAVES KYLE, BUT YOU LOOKED A LITTLE CURLY ON THIS OF ONE SO I'M THINKING IT'S GETABLE GUY.

HERBICIDE DRIFT.

WHEN THAT'S A COMMON ANSWER WE'RE GOING TO HAVE FOR A LOT OF LEAVES LOOKED A LITTLE CURLY ON THIS STUFF.

YOU GET THAT STRAPPING OF THE HINKIN LEAVES, THE CURLING.

IF YOU LOOK AT THE CURLING OF THE LEAF AND YOU CAN'T FLATTEN IT OUT, LIKE YOU COULDN'T PING OF THE LEAVES AND THE MANUALLY FLATTEN IT OUT, COLORING.

IF AND IT WOULD LOOK LIKE A NORMAL CURLING OF LEAF THAT'S PROBABLY HERBICIDE LEAF AND DAMAGE VERSUS WILTING FROM CAN'T AN ACTUAL WILT OR HEAT OR FLATTEN IT OUT, SOMETHING LIKE THAT.

PROBABLY >> ALL RIGHT.

DAMAGE YOUR NEXT TWO PICTURES ARE AN BULLETING FROM ACTUAL WILT EAGLE VIEWER, POTATOES, PLANTED OR HEAT OR SOMETHING LIKE THAT.

>> ALL SPROUTED POTATOES SHE GOT FROM ARE AN THE GROCERY STORE.

EAGLE VIEWER THEY WERE IN CONTAINERS WITH NEW SOIL.

POTATOES, PLANTED CAME UP FINE, BUT THEN SPROUTED POTATOES SHE GOT FRO THE NEW OWTH STARTED TO CURL.

THE GROCERY STORE IN NO INSECTS, BUT THERE ARE SPOTS.

WITH NEW SOIL.

CAME HAVE YOU SEEN THIS BEFORE IN FINE.

THE YOUR POTATO PATCHES?

STARTED TO >> WELL, THIS IS ANOTHER NO INSECTS, BUT HERBICIDE DRIFT THERE.

THIS IT CAN -- YOU KNOW -- WITH THE PEPPER AND POTATO, PATCHES?

IT CAN BE WHEREVER THATERBICIDE DRIFTS.

YOU CAN HAVE ONE PLANT HERE AND THE NEXT PLANT OVER IS THE PERFECTLY FINE.

AND IT'S WHEREVER THE WIND LANDS.

POTATO, IT'S SOME OF THOSE SPOTS COULD BE HERBICIDE DRIFTS.

SOME OF THOSE SPOTS COULD MAYBE SOME SORT OF INSECT MAYBE S FEEDING, BUT I THINK MOST OF IT OF INS IS ALL HERBICIDE, THAT CUPPING.

I THINK MOST OF IT IS ALL ANY OTHER THOUGHTS FROM DISEASE HERBICIDE, THAT CUPPING.

ANY AND INSECT OVER HERE, FROM PESTILENCE?

AND INSECT OVER >> NOPE, THEY ARE ALL QUIET.

>> THERE WE GO.

>> APHIDS DO SOME CUPPING AND CURLING, BUT THEY ARE TYPICALLY GO.

>> APHIDS DO EASY TO FIND.

>> YEAH, I THINK YOU WOULD SEE AND APHIDS OR SOMETHING LIKE THAT.

THEY I THINK THAT'S ALL DRIFT.

EASY TO FIND.

>> YEAH, I THINK YOU >> YOUR NEXT ONE IS CAN YOU TELL SEE A FEW SAID OR US WHAT THE ROUND PLANTS ARE ON THINK THE POTATO PLANT.

DRIFT.

>> OUR >> THAT IS ACTUALLY A POTATO FRUIT.

YOU IN POTATOES AND TOMATOES ARE THE -- TELL US WHAT ACTUALLY VERY CLOSELY RELATED, OUND PLANTS ARE ON THE POTATO THEY ARE THE SAME GENUS.

UNDER THE RIGHT WEATHER FRUIT.

POTATOES AND CONDITIONS POTATOES WILL OMATOES ARE ACTUALLY SET FRUIT.

ELATED, THEY ARE THAT'S HOW YOU GET NEW TYPES OF GENUS.

UNDER POTATOES IS BY CROSSING POTATOES WEATHER CONDITIONS POTATOES WILL AND COLLECTING THE SEEDS.

HOW YOU WE TYPICALLY DON'T SEE THIS AND BY C MOST PEOPLE GO AND BUY THE AND COLLECTING THE SEEDS ACTUAL POTATO TO CUT UP SEE THIS AND MOST PEOPLE AND PLANT.

BUY THE ACTUAL POTAT THERE IS ACTUALLY AN ALL-AMERICA UP AND SELECTIONS WINNER THAT IS A POTATO FROM SEED CALLED CLANCY.

SELECTIONS WINNER THAT THAT'S REALLY FUN.

>> NICE.

>> YEAH, THERE ARE TOMATO THAT'S REALLY FRUITS.

>> NICE.

>> YOUR FINAL TWO ARE A WARSAW, NEBRASKA VIEWER, TOMATO STRING BEANS ARE STUNTED.

SOME COME OUT OF IT, SOME ARE DELAYED.

WHAT'S THE CAUSE?

NEBRASKA VIEWER, STRING BEANS >> THOSE LEAVES LOOK CURLY AND ARE STEADED.

SOME COME OUT OF IT, SOME CUPPED, TOO I WILL GO WITH THE WHAT'S THE DRIFT ANSWER.

CAUSE?

>> THOSE THAT'S WHAT IT LOOKS LIKE TO ME.

RIGHT NOW IT'S TIME FOR LIGHTNING, JOHN YOU ARE UP.

>> OKAY.

>> THIS IS A BENNET VIEWER WHO PLANTED WHITE VIENNA KOHLRABI ON APRIL 15TH.

THERE ARE NO BULBS, JUST LEAVES, WHY?

>> IT TAKES A LITTLE WHILE FOR THOSE TO DEVELOP, SO GIVE IT A LITTLE TIME.

I DON'T KNOW IF THEY WILL BEFORE IT GETS TOO HOT.

>> OKAY.

THIS IS A VIEWER FROM PLATTSMOUTH WHO WONDERS IF STRAWBERRIES ARE PLANTED IN THE FALL WILL THEY BEAR FRUIT NEXT SPRING?

>> POSSIBLY IF THEY ARE DEVELOPED.

>> A VIEWER PLANTED RHUBARB PLANTS THIS SPRING AND WANTS TO KNOW WHAT TO DO ABOUT THEM OVER THE UPCOMING WINTER.

>> YOU CAN CUT BACK THE LEAVES.

YOU CAN MULCH THEM IF YOU WANT BUT THEY ARE HARDY.

>> ALL RIGHT.

THIS IS A LINCOLN VIEWER WHO WONDERS IF DYED WOOD CHIPS ARE SAFE.

THEY'VE HEARD THEY CONTAIN HEAVY METALS AND OILS.

>> I DON'T KNOW THAT I'VE HEARD THAT.

EVERYTHING I HAVE SEEN SAYS THAT THEY'RE SAFE.

>> ALL RIGHT.

THIS IS AN ALBION VIEWER WHO WANTS TO KNOW IF PUTTING A 10-10-10 FERTILIZER IS OKAY FOR THE VEGETABLE GARDEN AND IF SO, SHOULD YOU DO THAT NOW?

>> I WOULD TEST THE SOIL AND SEE WHAT YOU ACTUALLY NEED.

>> ALL RIGHT, VERY NICE JOB ON THAT ONE.

ARE YOU READY, KYLE?

>> I WAS BORN READY.

>> BORN READY, OKAY.

THAT DOESN'T MEAN YOU STILL ARE.

THIS CAME FROM ADAMS AND OMAHA AND LINCOLN, PRIVET, OLD PRIVET HEDGES HAVE JUST LOOKED TERRIBLE.

THE MIDDLE HAS DIED, WHAT IS IT?

DO WE KNOW?

>> IT'S PROBABLY OLD AGE, OLD AGE PLUS A LOT OF STRESS THAT WE HAVE HAD.

YEP, THE WEATHER.

>> THIS IS A LOUP CITY VIEWER, WHO HAD A FIVE-INCH-TALL ORANGE THING ATTRACTING FLIES COME UP IN HER GARDEN.

IT IS GONE NOW.

WHAT IS IT?

>> SOUNDS LIKE A STINKHORN MUSHROOM.

>> ALL RIGHT.

WHAT SHOULD SHE DO TO KEEP IT FROM HAPPENING AGAIN?

>> IF YOU DIG DOWN, YOU WILL FIND SOME KIND OF EGG-LOOKING THINGS.

THEY ALMOST LOOK LIKE SNAKE EGGS AND YOU CAN DIG THOSE UP, OTHERWISE, APPLY FERTILIZER TO THE AREA TO TRY TO GET OTHER PLANT MATERIAL TO BREAK IT DOWN.

>> THIS IS A BYRON VIEWER WHO HAD LEAFSPOT IN HIS IRIS AND USED MANCOZEB EVERY 7-10 DAYS BUT STILL HAS IT.

WHAT TO TRY NOW?

>> I WOULD MAYBE TRY SOMETHING DIFFERENT, CHLOROTHALONIL OR JUST SOME OTHER PRODUCT.

>> MY DAYLILY IS SHOWING CRUMMY LEAVES RIGHT NOW.

IS IT RUST OR IS IT DROUGHT?

>> MOSTLY LIKELY DROUGHT.

I HAVE NOT SEEN ANY DAYLILY RUST, YET.

>> NICE, NICE JOB, ALL RIGHT, WAYNE.

YOU'RE UP, READY?

>> SURE, GO FOR IT.

>> THIS IS A YOUNG VIEWER FROM OMAHA WHO KNOWS ALL INSECTS DO SOMETHING GOOD.

HIS QUESTION IS WHAT DO TICKS DO THAT'S GOOD?

>> THEY ARE PARASITES, WHAT THE ECOLOGISTS WILL TELL YOU IS THAT PARASITES ARE A SIGN OF A HEALTHY ECOSYSTEM.

>> THIS IS A SEWARD VIEWER, WHO SAYS SOMETHING, SOME SORT OF CATERPILLAR IS EATING THE FOLIAGE OF HER CONEFLOWERS.

WHAT SHOULD SHE DO ABOUT THAT?

>> WELL, IF THE FOLIAGE, THEY CAN INSPECT AND PICK OFF OR THEY COULD USE A CARBARYL OR PERMETHRIN-TYPE PRODUCTS IF THEY REALLY FEEL THE NEED TO SPRAY.

>> THIS IS AN OMAHA VIEWER WHO WANTS TO PROTECT HIS BLUEBERRIES FROM JAPANESE BEETLES WHEN HE OUT OF TOWN FOR A WEEK.

HOW CAN HE DO THAT?

>> HE CAN SPRAY BEFORE HE LEAVES OR HE CAN USE A NETTING THAT WOULD EXCLUDE.

>> THIS IS A BEATRICE VIEWER WHOSE NEIGHBOR WANTS HIM TO TARP A NEW BEEHIVE WHEN THE STREET IS BEING SPRAYED FOR MOSQUITOES IN BEATRICE.

SHOULD HE DO THAT AND REMOVE IT THE NEXT DAY?

>> I'M NOT SURE IF HE HAS TO TARP IT, HE JUST NEEDS TO PLUG THE ENTRANCE TO KEEP THEM FROM GOING OUT.

>> ALL RIGHT.

THIS IS A VIEWER WHO'S -- WHOOPS, TOO LATE.

WE'LL HOLD THAT ONE FOR YA'.

NICE JOB.

LET'S SEE, LOOKS LIKE JOHN.

>> THAT WAS A TIE.

>> A TIE.

>> I WILL GIVE IT TO HIM.

>> ALL RIGHT, JOHN, PLAYER OF THE WEEK.

>> LOOK AT HIM OVER THERE.

WE DON'T WANT TO ASSOCIATE WITH HIM.

>> I ONLY GOT 4.

>> I WILL ADMIT TO BEING THE LOSER THIS WEEK.

>> JOHN, PLANTS OF THE WEEK.

>> OH, YEAH, I GOT TO DO THAT RIGHT.

I GOT TIED UP IN ALL OF THAT FUN STUFF.

>> TOO MUCH BANTER.

>> RIGHT.

SHE'S GOING TO KILL US.

>> GIVE YOU THE LOOK.

>> RIGHT, GIVE US THE LOOK.

WE HAVE TWO PLANTS OF THE WEEK.

THIS FUN GUY HERE, THIS IS BUTTON BUSH.

IF IT LOOKS FAMILIAR, YOU KNOW, IF YOU WATCH THE SPACE RACE, THIS ONE IS CALLED SPUTNIK.

IT'S REALLY FUN.

THERE IS ANOTHER VARIETY THAT'S COMMON CALLED SUGAR SHACK, A SMALLER VARIETY.

IT DOES OFTEN HAVE WINTER INJURY IN OUR AREA, BUT STILL PUTS ON A GOOD SHOW.

AND THEN WE HAVE BOTTLE BRUSH BUCKEYE HERE, WHICH IS REALLY FUN.

IT CAN BE TEN FOOT TALL, UP TO 15 FEET WIDE AND HAS A TROPICAL APPEARANCE AND ATTRACTS POLLINATORS.

BUTTON BUSH AND BOTTLE BRUSH, SAY THAT TEN TIMES FAST.

>> EXACTLY.

THANK YOU, JOHN.

OKAY.

LET'S SEE, YOUR NEXT SET OF QUESTIONS, WAYNE, THIS IS A BENNINGTON VIEWER SENT IN TWO PICTURES -- THIS IS A JUNE 1ST, THEY WERE DEALING WITH AN INFESTATION OF DEERFLIES.

THEY USED THE BUCKET OF DEATH, BUT WOULD LIKE TO KNOW HOW TO TAKE THE FIGHT TO THE FLIES IN THEIR OWN HABITAT?

>> YOU REALLY CAN'T BECAUSE THEY ARE TYPICALLY A NATURAL HABITAT AREA AND YOU'RE NOT GOING TO BE ABLE TO DO MUCH.

THIS GROUP OF BITING FLIES, THEY LAY THEIR EGGS IN VEGETATION OVERHANGING WATER AND THEN WHEN THE EGGS HATCH, THE LARVAE DROP INTO THE WATER.

WE DON'T HAVE THINGS THAT YOU CAN APPLY TO WATER.

>> ANY NATURAL PREDATORS?

>> NOT THAT THEY ARE ABLE TO ENCOURAGE, MORE SO.

THE BUCKET IS PROBABLY THEIR BEST BET LIKE THEY ARE DOING AROUND THE EDGE OF THE PROPERTY, BUT IT HAS TO BE ABLE TO MOVE, THERE'S SOMETHING TO THE MOVEMENT.

>> ALL RIGHT, EXCELLENT.

THIS IS AN OMAHA VIEWER THAT HAS A MYSTERY INSECT HANGING AROUND ALL OVER THE PLANTS.

HE THINKS IT'S NIBBLING ON LEAVES, BUT IS IT?

WHAT IS THIS INSECT?

>> THIS IS ONE OF OUR SOLDIER BEETLES IN THE GENUS TRYPHERUS.

IT'S COMMON.

IT COMES OUT FOR ABOUT A WEEK OR TWO AND THEN DISAPPEARS, SO WE DON'T TYPICALLY SEE DAMAGE FROM IT, JUST ENJOY THE FACT THAT THEY ARE AROUND AND LET THEM BE.

>> ALL RIGHT.

YOUR NEXT ONE HERE IS A BELLEVUE VIEWER WANTS TO KNOW WHAT THIS ONE IS.

THEY LAND IN THE POOL AND THEY EITHER STING OR BITE.

>> THIS IS ONE OF OUR SMALL SOLITARY BEES.

IT'S IN THE FAMILY HALICTIDAE.

WE WOULD RECOGNIZE IT FROM OUR SWEAT BEES AND METALLIC GREEN BEES.

THOSE ARE THE ONES THAT MOST PEOPLE RECOGNIZE.

THIS ONE IS PROBABLY IN THE GENUS LASIOGLOSSUM.

AGAIN, IT'S ONE OF OUR SMALL SWEAT BEES.

>> SWEAT BEE.

NOW WONDER IT BITES.

>> IF THEY'RE IN THE POOL AND CONSTANTLY GETTING IN THERE, YOU MIGHT WANT TO CONSIDER A LOG FLOAT, OR SOMETHING LIKE THAT.

OBVIOUSLY NOT A WOODEN LOG THAT YOU WOULD PUT IN YOUR POOL, BUT SOMETHING THAT WOULD FUNCTION THAT WAY SO THAT THEY HAVE A PLACE TO LAND, GO DOWN AND DRINK WATER AND THEN FLY OFF AND NOT GET STUCK IN THE POOL.

>> EXCELLENT.

YOUR FIRST TWO PICTURES, HERE, KYLE, ARE -- SHE LIVES IN THE SAND, NORTH PLATTE.

VERY DROUGHT STRESSED.

SHE WATERED IN THE FALL.

THESE ARE AUSTRIAN PONDEROSA.

NEEDLES ARE LOOKING WAVY, CURLY, AND BROWN.

THERE IS NEW GROWTH MOST PLACES EXCEPT THE TERMINAL.

>> WAVY, CURLY NEEDLES, OFTEN A GOOD SIGN OF HERBICIDE DRIFT.

THERE IS ALSO SOME NEEDLE DIEBACK, WHICH IS INDICATIVE OF DROUGHT CONDITIONS, WHICH WE HAVE SEEN A LOT OF IN NEBRASKA.

THE OTHER THING, THOUGH, ZOOMING IN, WE CAN SEE SOME KIND OF BROWN SPOTS ON THE NEEDLES.

SO I THINK THEY ARE ALSO DEALING WITH BROWN SPOT NEEDLE BLIGHT.

IT'S FAIRLY COMMON IN WESTERN, NEBRASKA, CAN KILL THE TOP PART, THE TIP OF THE NEEDLE, WHILE THE BASE REMAINS GREEN AND THEN KIND OF FORMS THESE BROWNISH SPOTS IN THE MIDDLE.

GENERALLY, NOT A WHOLE LOT THAT'S NEEDED FOR CONTROL ON THIS GUY.

I WOULD JUST TRY TO ENCOURAGE VIGOROUS GROWTH.

>> YOUR NEXT TWO PICTURES ARE YOUNG COTTONWOODS NEAR FOSTER.

IT LOOKS LIKE SHOTGUN.

WHAT IS THIS?

>> YEAH, THIS WAS A TOUGH ONE.

I THINK THIS MIGHT BE INK SPOT OF COTTONWOOD.

IT'S A BIT EARLY TO BE SEEING IT, BUT IT DOES LOOK LIKE THERE IS SOME KIND OF BLACK, SHINY, INKY LOOKING SPOTS ON THERE.

THOSE ARE ACTUALLY THE FUNGAL SCLEROTIA, THE OVERWINTERING STRUCTURES OF THAT FUNGUS.

AS THEY MATURE, AS THOSE LESIONS MATURE, THE CENTERS DROP OUT AND THAT'S WHAT WE SEE.

IT TENDS NOT TO BE ANYTHING MORE THAN A COSMETIC ISSUE.

I WOULDN'T DO A WHOLE LOT, MAYBE SOME PRUNING BUT THEN SANITATION, MAKE SURE THAT WE ARE CLEANING UP THOSE LEAVES AT THE END OF THE SEASON TO TRY TO REDUCE INOCULUM.

>> YOUR FINAL TWO PICTURES, THIS IS AN ACREAGE OUTSIDE OMAHA WITH DOGWOODS, LOTS OF THEM AND WILD DOGWOODS ALL OF A SUDDEN RAPIDLY DECLINED.

THE TRUNK AND BRANCHES ARE COVERED WITH THESE STRANGE BUMPS AND EVENTUALLY THEY DIE.

WHAT IS THIS?

>> YEAH, THIS IS ANOTHER INTERESTING ONE.

I KIND OF THINK THIS MAY BE CROWN GALL.

IT'S OFTEN FOUND NEAR THE BASE OF THE PLANTS, BUT WE CAN HAVE IT ON THE AERIAL PARTS AS WELL.

IT'S A BACTERIUM THAT CAUSES THIS ALMOST CANCEROUS SORT OF GROWTH TO OCCUR ANYWHERE THERE IS A WOUND.

IT COULD BE A LOT OF WOUNDS.

GENERALLY, CROWN GALL DOESN'T CAUSE RAPID DECLINE OF THE PLANTS LIKE THAT, SO I WONDER IF THERE IS NOT ANOTHER UNDERLYING ISSUE LIKE ROOT ROT OR SOMETHING LIKE THAT GOING ON, TOO.

>> ALL RIGHT, AND NOTHING YOU CAN DO ABOUT CROWN GALL.

>> PRUNE IT DOWN TO THE GROUND IF YOU NEED TO.

>> ALL RIGHT, JOHN.

YOUR FIRST TWO PICTURES ARE A CULBERTSON, NEBRASKA VIEWER.

26 DIAMETER BLACK WALNUT.

SECOND YEAR THE TREE IS HAVING ISSUES.

YOU CAN SEE THE TREE HANGING OVER THE HOUSE HERE.

YOU CAN SEE, I THINK YOUR SECOND PICTURE IS WHAT DOESN'T HAVE MUCH FOLIAGE.

THOUGHTS ON THIS ONE?

>> EARLIER WE HAD TREES I SAID A LOT OF MISSING FOLIAGE PROBABLY TRACED BACK TO SOME SORT OF ISSUE WITH THE ROOTS OR SOME OTHER ISSUE, SO I THINK -- AND THIS TREE LOOKS LIKE IT'S HANGING RIGHT OVER THAT HOUSE, SO THAT TREE NEEDS TO GO SOONER RATHER THAN LATER, I THINK.

>> EXACTLY.

YOUR NEXT ONE IS A CENTRAL CITY VIEWER.

THIS IS A PEACH.

80 MILE-PER-HOUR WINDS PLUS TRUNK DAMAGE, PLUS ENDS OF BLOSSOMS.

SHE DID HAVE 15 YEARS OF PEACHES OFF OF THIS ONE.

SHE'S WONDERING IF IT'S TIME FOR A GENTLE RETIREMENT.

>> PROBABLY IS TIME FOR A RETIREMENT FOR THAT TREE.

PEACHES ARE REALLY HARD TO GROW HERE.

WE GET A LOT OF WINTER DAMAGE.

AND THEN WE ADD IN 80 MPH WINDS AND TRUNK DAMAGE.

THERE ARE OTHER FRUITS, I KNOW, PEACHES ARE ONE OF MY FAVORITES, BUT THERE ARE OTHER FRUITS.

>> ON THAT NOTE, THIS IS A FOSTER NEBRASKA VIEWER, NO, THIS ONE IS KEARNEY.

THIS IS A BIRCH, THREE CLUSTERS OF BIRCH TREES.

THEY ARE ALL RIVER BIRCH AND ONE HAS YELLOWING AND HE DID SEND A PICTURE THAT SHOWED THE CHLOROSIS IN THE FOLIAGE.

YELLOWING ON THE TRUNK SIDE, MULTIPLE SORTS OF ISSUES GOING ON.

WHAT DO WE THINK HERE?

>> WE ARE SEEING THOSE ISSUES AND HAVING THOSE MULTIPLE TRUNKS PRESENTS AN ISSUE.

I THINK, YOU KNOW, THIS IS GOING TO BE ONE OF THOSE CASES WHERE IT'S A SHORT-TERM TREE.

>> EXACTLY.

GOOD BIRCH LOGS FOR THE FIREPLACE.

>> YES.

OR FOR DECORATING.

THEY DO THEM IN CONTAINERS NOW.

>> RIGHT.

>> MAYBE SELL THEM TO A FLORIST OR SOMETHING.

>> YOUR FINAL ONE IS ALSO A PEACH.

THIS IS A PIERCE COUNTY NEBRASKA VIEWER AND WONDERING WHAT'S GOING ON.

THIS IS TEN YEARS OLD AND THE LATE FREEZE HAS KIND OF DEVASTATED IT.

WHAT DO WE THINK ON THIS ONE?

>> YEAH, I MEAN, THE LATE FREEZE COULD HAVE KILLED OUT LEAF BUDS, BUT IT ALSO COULD BE SOME OTHER ISSUES.

WE GET A LOT OF TRUNK DAMAGE AND ROOT DAMAGE.

ALSO, IT LOOKS LIKE IT MIGHT BE PLANTED A LITTLE BIT TOO DEEP.

I DIDN'T SEE A NICE FLARE AT THE BOTTOM THERE.

I THINK THAT WILL BE A FORMER PEACH TREE, AS WELL.

>> ALL RIGHT.

THANKS, JOHN.

WHAT WAS ONCE AN ODDITY IS NOW BECOMING A PROBLEM.

JUMPING WORMS ARE INVASIVE AND AS YOU'LL SOON SEE, THEY DON'T ACT ANYTHING AT ALL LIKE EARTH WORMS THAT WE LOVE TO FISH WITH.

HERE'S JODY GREEN TO TELL US MORE.

♪ >> A FEW YEARS AGO, SOME PICTURES OF SOME WORMS THAT WERE NOT EARTHWORMS WERE SENT TO "BACKYARD FARMER."

SINCE THEN, WE FOUND THE INVASIVE JUMPING WORM IS PRETTY WIDESPREAD IN NEBRASKA.

SOMETIMES, THEY ARE CALLED ASIAN JUMPING WORMS, SOMETIMES CRAZY WORMS OR SNAKE WORMS AND THAT'S DUE TO THEIR BEHAVIOR AND THE MOVEMENT.

THEY ARE PRETTY FREAKY EVEN FOR A BUG LOVER LIKE ME AND SOMEONE WHO ENJOYS WORMS, WHICH BY THE WAY ARE NOT INSECTS.

THEY THRASH AROUND WILDLY.

THEIR TAILS SOMETIMES BREAK OFF.

THEY WILL SECRETE A YELLOW SUBSTANCE IF THEY ARE DISTURBED.

BUT REALLY, THEY ARE NOT LIKE THE EARTHWORMS THAT WE KNOW OF.

THE INVASIVE JUMPING WORMS MAINLY FEED BETWEEN THE ORGANIC LAYER WHERE WE HAVE MULCH AND LEAF LITTER AND THE SURFACE OF THE SOIL.

SO IF YOU FIND THAT YOU ARE PUTTING A LOT OF MULCH DOWN MORE OFTEN OR IN YOUR COMPOST YOU ARE SEEING WEIRD WORMS THRASH AROUND WHEN YOU ARE DIGGING, THEN THESE CAN BE THOSE INVASIVE JUMPING WORMS.

THESE JUMPING WORMS ARE NATIVE TO ASIA AND OVER THERE THEY ARE NOT PESTS, BUT HERE THEY ARE CONSIDERED PESTS BECAUSE THEY DO THIS THING WHICH A LOT OF WORMS DO, WHICH IS BREAK DOWN THE SOIL TO -- INTO NUTRIENTS.

HOWEVER, THEY DO THIS SO QUICKLY THAT THE ECOSYSTEM MAY CHANGE BECAUSE THERE IS NOT ENOUGH NUTRIENTS LEFT IN THE SOIL.

WHAT HAPPENS IS THEY BREAK IT DOWN AND THEN THE RAINS WILL WASH AWAY THOSE NUTRIENTS.

SO YOU MAY FIND YOUR SOIL IN SOME PLACES LOOK LIKE SPENT COFFEE GROUNDS AND THERE IS NO LONGER ANY NUTRIENTS TO PROVIDE TO YOUR PLANTS.

IF YOU ARE WONDERING IF YOU HAVE JUMPING WORMS IN YOUR LANDSCAPE, CONSIDER WHEN AND HOW OFTEN YOU GET MULCH DELIVERED, WHERE YOU GET YOUR MULCH DELIVERED AND IF YOU PURCHASED ANY NEW PLANTS?

QUITE OFTEN THE PLACES THAT HAVE THE MOST REPORTS OF JUMPING WORMS ARE BOTANICAL GARDENS, NURSERIES, AND HOMES THAT ARE IMPORTING OR BRINGING IN NEW PLANTS.

OFTEN WE FIND THAT WE ARE ALL GARDENERS AND WE SHARE OUR PLANTS AND WE GIVE GIFTS OF PLANTS AND MANY TIMES WE MAY BE SPREADING THE JUMPING WORM.

THEY ARE EASY TO SEE AS ADULTS, BUT NOT SO MUCH AS COCOONS.

THAT'S HOW THEY ARE OFTEN SPREAD.

THEY CAN FOUND ON TOOLS IF THEY ARE NOT WASHED PROPERLY, IN TREADS OF SHOES, IN VEHICLES, BUT OFTENTIMES, THEY'RE GOING TO BE IN THAT PLANT MATERIAL.

AT THIS TIME, THERE ARE NO PRODUCTS THAT CAN BE USED AGAINST WORMS OR EARTHWORMS IN THE LANDSCAPE.

SO WE ARE NOT ADVISING ANY TREATMENT.

HOWEVER, IF YOU DO FIND JUMPING WORMS IN YOUR LANDSCAPE, YOU ARE NOT SUPPOSED TO PASS THEM AROUND TO FRIENDS OR NEIGHBORS AND YOU ARE SUPPOSED TO DESTROY THEM.

I HOPE YOU LEARNED SOMETHING ABOUT JUMPING WORMS.

THERE IS NOTHING TO PANIC.

WE ARE REALLY STILL TRYING TO LEARN ABOUT THEM AND THEIR EFFECT IN THE LANDSCAPE.

IF YOU DO FIND JUMPING WORMS, KEEP AN EYE ON YOUR PLANTS.

MAYBE THERE ARE SOME PLANTS THAT WILL DO OKAY AND OVER TIME WE WILL LEARN MORE.

>> YOU CAN GET AN IDEA OF THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN JUMPING WORMS AND THE REGULAR ONES, WHAT IS THAT DIFFERENCE, WAYNE?

>> WHAT YOU LOOK FOR ON THE WORM IS WHAT WE CALL THE CLITELLUM.

ITS SWELLING ON WHAT OUR REGULAR WORMS WOULD BE TOWARDS THE FRONT END.

IT LOOKS LIKE A SADDLE ON OUR NORMAL ONES, NOT OUR INVASIVE JUMPING WORMS.

IT LOOKS LIKE A SADDLE.

IT DOESN'T GO ALL THE WAY AROUND.

THERE IS AN UNDERSIDE WHERE IT'S NOT AT.

IT'S SEGMENTED AND RAISED ABOVE THE REST OF THE WORM'S SURFACE.

ON AN INVASIVE JUMPING WORM, A FULL GROWN ONE BY THE WAY, THAT CLITELLUM WILL BE SMOOTH AND FLAT AND PALE IN COLOR AND WON'T CIRCLE THE WHOLE WORM AND NOT BE SEGMENTED.

THAT'S WHAT YOU'RE LOOKING FOR FOR THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN THE TWO.

>> BESIDES WHICH THE JUMPING WORMS ARE SO CREEPY.

>> ON THAT NOTE.

>> ON THAT NOTE, HERE'S YOUR PICTURE.

THERE IS A 36-YEAR-OLD LINDEN TREE WITH WHITE GUNK ON THE SEEDS, DROPS DOWN TO ANOTHER LEAF.

WHITE, NON-STICKY.

WHAT'S THE INSECT INVOLVED HERE?

>> THAT'S A SPITTLE BUG.

I KNOW WE'RE USED TO SEEING THEM ON PLANTS DOWN LOWER ON THE GROUND, BUT MY LINDEN TREES IN THE BACKYARD GET THESE, TOO.

NOTHING TO WORRY ABOUT.

>> EXCELLENT, THEN WE HAVE A NORTHEAST LINCOLN VIEWER.

SHE NOTICED A PREPONDERANCE OF WHAT SHE'S CALLING EGGS ON THIS TREE.

WHAT ARE THESE?

>> HACKBERRY NIPPLE GALL CAUSED BY A PSYLLID.

YOU WOULD BE HARD PRESSED TO FIND A LEAF WITHOUT A GALL ON IT ON A HACKBERRY TREE.

>> EXACTLY.

>> IT'S KIND OF PAR FOR THE COURSE.

>> IT IS.

THIS IS AN ORD, NEBRASKA VIEWER SHE'S WONDERING WHY HER HACKBERRIES ARE LOSING LEAVES.

SHE DID SEND A PICTURE OF LITTLE HACKBERRY LEAVES KIND OF ALL OVER.

WHAT IS THIS, PROBABLY?

>> IT HAS A COUPLE OF GALLS ON IT.

LIKE I SAID, IT PROBABLY WOULD.

IT WOULD REALLY HELP TO SEE THE TREE IN PERSPECTIVE TO SEE WHAT'S GOING ON.

MAYBE THIS IS ANOTHER HERBICIDE ISSUE THAT JOHN SHOULD BE ANSWERING.

MAYBE IT'S A DISEASE ISSUE THAT KYLE SHOULD BE ANSWERING.

WITH JUST THE LEAF THAT'S YELLOW, I CAN'T SAY A WHOLE LOT.

>> IT'S A HACKBERRY.

THEY DO THAT.

( LAUGHTER) YOUR FINAL ONE IS A GRETNA VIEWER AND HAS A TRIUMPH ELM AND HAS A RED GROWTHS ON THE TIPS OF THE LEAVES.

>> I ACTUALLY GOT THIS LAST TIME I WAS ON, TOO.

THIS ONE LOOKS JUST A LITTLE BIT DIFFERENT BUT GALLS CAN VARY A LITTLE BIT IN HOW THEY LOOK.

THIS IS AN ELM POUCH OR SACK GALL THAT'S CAUSED BY AN APHID THAT'S NATIVE TO EUROPE.

>> THANK YOU VERY MUCH.

KYLE, THIS IS A VIEWER THAT HAS REAL ISSUES WITH APPLES.

SHE'S IN MACEDONIA, IOWA, TWO DWARF APPLES ON A TRELLIS IN A ROW OF 10.

SHE'S CUT BACK THESE DISEASED BRANCHES.

WE HAVE THREE PICTURES HERE.

SHE HAS CLEANED BETWEEN THE CUTTINGS.

DO WE KNOW WHAT THIS MIGHT BE AND SHE'S HOPING IT'S NOT FIRE BLIGHT.

>> THAT REALLY DOES NOT LOOK LIKE FIRE BLIGHT.

I HAVE NOT SEEN THE BLACKENED LEAVES OR ANYTHING LIKE THAT.

WE ARE DEALING WITH CANKERS.

WHAT THE CANKER IS, NOT ENTIRELY SURE.

POTENTIALLY, ANTHRACNOSE CANKER, BUT BASED ON KIND OF THE DARK DISCOLORATION THAT WE CAN SEE ON THIS PICTURE ESPECIALLY I AM LEADING MORE TOWARDS A PHOMOPSIS CANKER CAUSING THE DISEASE.

REGARDLESS OF WHAT THE CANKER IS, PRUNING IS THE ONLY REAL THING THAT WE CAN DO.

YOU WANT TO MAKE SURE THAT YOU'RE PRUNING AT LEAST 6-8 INCHES DOWN PAST THAT WOUND AREA.

ANOTHER THING YOU CAN DO IS APPLY A COPPER PAINT OR SOMETHING LIKE THAT TO THOSE PRUNE WOUNDS TO HELP PREVENT MORE CANKERS FROM FORMING.

>> ALL RIGHT.

YOUR NEXT ONE IS A SEWARD VIEWER WITH AN APPLE TREE AND SINGLE LARGE BRANCH OF A 20-YEAR-OLD TREE, LEAVES ARE CURLING.

PORTION OF THE BARK HAD SPLIT AND WAS PEALING.

SHE'S WONDERING IF THIS IS ANTHRACNOSE.

>> I THINK THIS IS DIAPORTHE CANKER HERE.

DIAPORTHE CANKER TENDS TO CAUSE THAT PEELING BARK.

AGAIN, CANKER I.D.

CAN BE VERY DIFFICULT FROM PICTURES.

CONTROL IS EXACT SAME FOR ALL OF THEM.

PRUNE 6-8 INCHES DOWN PAST THAT WOUND.

>> ALL RIGHT, AND QUICKLY ON THIS ONE, KYLE.

THIS IS NORFOLK, WHAT'S HAPPENING WITH THE TOP OF THE BRADFORD PEAR?

>> MOST LIKELY ANOTHER ONE OF THOSE CANKERS THAT I WAS DISCUSSING, DECREASING NUTRIENT FLOW UP TO THOSE LEAVES.

THAT'S WHY WE'RE GETTING THAT YELLOW COLORATION.

>> THANK YOU, KYLE.

YOU HAVE TWO QUICK ONES, JOHN.

THE FIRST ONE IS SO FUN.

THIS IS AN ELK CREEK TEACHER.

SHE HAS A PINEAPPLE OFF A PINEAPPLE THAT SHE GREW.

HOW DOES SHE KEEP IT GROWING SO IT CAN BECOME EDIBLE?

>> YOU GIVE ME A QUESTION THAT'S NOT A DEAD TREE OR A DRIFT AND YOU GIVE ME LIKE, 30 SECONDS TO DO IT.

>> I DO.

I WANT TO SEE HOW GOOD YOU ARE!

>> HOW FUN.

PINEAPPLES ARE LIKE A BROMELIAD HOUSE PLANT.

THEY ARE THE SAME TYPE OF SPECIES.

THEY ARE A TROPICAL PLANT, SO YOU WANT TO KEEP IT WELL WATERED WITH LOTS OF BRIGHT LIGHT.

IT WILL BE RIPE WHEN IT STARTS TO YELLOW UP AND YOU SHOULD BE ABLE TO ACTUALLY SQUEEZE IT AND IT WILL GIVE LIGHTLY.

THE FUN THING IS THAT YOU ARE ABLE TO HARVEST WHEN IT'S ACTUALLY RIPE UNLIKE THE ONES IN THE GROCERY STORE THAT ARE HARVESTED WHEN THEY ARE NOT RIPE SO IT WILL ACTUALLY TASTE MUCH BETTER.

>> ALL RIGHT, AND YOUR FINAL TWO PICTURES, QUICKLY ARE HIBISCUS LEAF DAMAGE.

IS THIS FROM OVER OR UNDER WATERING?

>> THAT IS OVER WATERING.

THERE YOU GO.

>> STOP DOING THAT, RIGHT?

>> STOP DOING IT.

>> WE HAVE A COUPLE OF ANNOUNCEMENTS TONIGHT.

OUR FIRST ONE I BELIEVE IS "“DIGGING DEEPER.

"” NOPE, NATIONAL POLLINATOR WEEK.

JUNE 21ST TO JUNE 27TH, POLLINATOR.ORG.

WAY FUN FOR ALL OF US WHO LOVE THOSE POLLINATORS.

OUR SECOND ONE IS "“DIGGING DEEPER WITH BACKYARD FARMER."

WATCH US ON FACEBOOK THURSDAYS ON 8:00 P.M.

ALWAYS A LOT OF FUN.

JODY IS TALKING TICKS TONIGHT.

UNFORTUNATELY, THAT IS REALLY ALL THE TIME WE HAVE FOR "“BACKYARD FARMER.

"” WE HAD TOO MUCH FUN, I WANT TO SAY THANKS TO EVERYONE WHO SUBMITTED PICTURES.

OUR WONDERFUL MASTER GARDENERS FOR COMING BACK AND ANSWERING THE PHONE.

THANKS TO OUR PANEL.

NEXT TIME ON "BACKYARD FARMER," WE WILL HEAR FROM ANOTHER FORMER HOST OF THE SHOW ABOUT SEVERAL TREE ISSUES WE'VE RECENTLY HAD.

JOHN FECH WILL STOP BY TO TALK ABOUT HOW TREE ISSUES ARE ASSESSED IN YOUR LANDSCAPE.

GOOD NIGHT AND GOOD GARDENING.

WE WILL SEE YOU ALL NEXT WEEK RIGHT HERE ON "BACKYARD FARMER."
