>> I AM DOUG KEYPORT, AND WE ARE IN MORGAN PARK.

I BOUGHT THE HOUSE AS AIN MORGAA FIXER-UPPER IN 2019 IN OCTOBER..

IN 2020 WITH THE PANDEMIC ININ N APRIL AND MAY CAME OUT I HAD TO THE YARD AND STARTED TO TEAR OUT ALL OF THE INVASIVES.ALL OF THE.

EVERYTHING LOOKED TERRIBLE, SO I HAD TO RIP EVERYTHING OUT AND IT WAS BASICALLY A CLEAN SLATEWAS E STARTING.STARTI I HAD A BACKGROUND IN LANDSCAPEE ARCHITECTURE AND DESIGN.

I WAS A WORKER IN COLLEGE, SO II HAD HAD VEHICLE TO REMOVE OLDHAD SIDEWALKS AND SO FORTH, AND ONCE THE SIDEWALK AND THE PATIO WERE DONE, THEN I COULD REALLY STARTT LAYING OUT A GARDEN BED.LAYING .

I WAS ABLE TO SCROUNGE FROMI WAM NEIGHBORS AND PEOPLE I WAS MEETING.

THE GARDEN BEDS COME ATNEIGHBORT VEGETABLE GARDEN BEDS ARE BEDS..

I AM LUCKY ENOUGH TO HAVE FOUNDD A FELLOW THAT WANTED TO GET RIDD OF A BUNCH THAT HE HAD USED TO,, SO I REPLACED THE WOOD WHERE II NEEDED TO IN PAINTED THEM ANDNED FILLED THEM WITH EXTRA SOIL ANDH COMPOST, AND THEY TURNED OUT EXT BEAUTIFUL, SO I AM GROWING GREAT TOMATOES AND PEPPERS AND GARLIC AND ONIONS.TOMATOES AND PEPPERS.

THEY WILL LAST ME 10 YEARS IF II TAKE CARE OF THEM.

I HAVE A BEAUTIFUL PROGRESSIONN OF FLOWERING PLANTS.

EVERY WEEK THERE WAS SOMETHINGG NEW THAT COMES IN, AND IT ISNEWS SUCH A DELIGHT TO SEE THESUCH A TRANSITION.

OH, THESE ARE OPEN TODAY.

>> THANKS FOR SHARING YOURDOES R BEAUTIFUL GARDEN, DOUG.BEAUTIFU LATER TONIGHT WE WILL SHARE OFFF -- SHOWOFF VIEWER PHOTOS.-- SHO.

LET'S GET TO SOME QUESTIONS.

JD FROM BARNUM AS A WONDERFULLEL QUESTION.

IS GRANDPA USED TO REPLACE RUSTE METAL BOLTS AND NAILS UNDERYMETR GARDEN BEDS.

>> THE STAGE OF VALUE, OFTENGARN TIMES PEOPLE DO THESE THINGSTIMS BECAUSE THEY THINK YOU HAVE ANN IRON DEFICIENCY.IRON IF YOU HAVE NATIVE SOIL WE DO DI NOT HAVE A LOT OF IRONVE SOIL WN DEFICIENCY AND A RUSTY NAIL WILL NOT DO ANYTHING FOR YOU.

IF YOU HAVE IRON DEFICIENCY, YOU HAVE TO HAVE A CERTAIN TYPE OFF IRON.

TAKE A SOIL TEST.IRON.TAKE A SO.

IF YOU FEEL BETTER PUTTING RUSTY NAILS UNDER APPLETREE THAT ISNAS FINE, BUT IT WILL NOT TAKE CARE OF ANY DEFICIENCY.

>> HAMILTON WRITES LAST YEAR WEE HAD RUST LIKE GROWTH ON YOURHADR FRUIT TREES.FRUIT TREES.

HOW DO WE TREAT AND WHEN?HOW DO?

>> RUST IS A FUNGUS AND IS>> RUS PRETTY BENIGN, AND IT IS NOTPRET GOING TO KILL THE PLANT.GOING T. IT PROBABLY IS NOT GOING TOIT PN IMPACT OF THE FRUIT QUALITY, AND IT IS JUST AN ANNOYANCE.

BOB: MORE SO THAN THAT, THAT WAS A NICE SEGUE.A NICE SEGUE.

LIKE YOU SAID, IT IS A FUNGALLIL DISEASE.

IF IT IS BOTHERING YOU, AND ITT BECOMES A PROBLEM, THE ONLYBECOY CONTROL WHAT WOULD YOU BE ACONTA RATHER COMPREHENSIVE SPRAY PROGRAM WITH THE FUNGICIDE THATT MOST PEOPLE DO NOT WANT TOMOST O EMBARK ON, SO DO NOT WORRY ABOUT IT.

>> HOW OFTEN DO YOU WATER ALONGG AND HOW MUCH WATER DO YOU GIVE THE LAWN?AND HOW MUCH WATER DO E >> IT DEPENDS ON THE WEATHER.TH.

IT DEPENDS ON SOIL STRUCTURE AND HOW LONG IS YOUR GRASS, AND WHAT KIND OF WEATHER WE HAVE.

YOU COULD LET IT GO DORMANT.KIN.

A LOT OF THINGS THAT WILL EASEE PRESSURE ON THE GRASS IS KEEPING A LONGER BLADE ON IT, BUT ITA LT DEPENDS A LOT ON OUR WEATHER.

BOB: IT IS JUST A RULE OF THUMB, YOU NEED ONE GOOD INCH OF WATER TO 1.5 INCHES PER WEEK FROMYOU M EITHER RAINFALL OR FROMEITHER RM IRRIGATION.

JUST A THICKEN UP THERE.IRRIGAT.

SOMEWHERE AROUND THE DRIP LINEE OF YOUR SPRINKLER.OFOUR SPRINKL.

IF YOU HAVE NOT HAD ANY RAINFALL THAT IS TYPICALLY ENOUGH.THAT I.

>> I TONIGHT CAN WORKS REALLY>>Y WELL -- A TUNE CAN WORKS REALLYY WELL.

>> WHAT IS THE BEST WAY TO TOWEO ELIMINATE FUNGUS GNATS?

>> THAT IS A TOUGH ONE.ELIMINAT.

FIRST OF ALL YOU HAVE FUNGUS GNATS?

IF YOU SEE INSECTS THAT AREFIRSE JUMPING THAT IS SPRING TAILEDJUD THAT A LOT OF PEOPLE CALL FUNGUS NIGHT.

YOU CAN TRY INSECTICIDAL SOAP..

IF THEY GET SO BAD YOU HAD TOIFT TAKE THEM OUTDOORS AND THERE ARE ANY NUMBER OF OVER-THE-COUNTER INSECTICIDES.ANY NUMBER OF OVERR YOU MIGHT WANT TO GO TO THAT IFF IT IS TRULY A FUNGUS THAT -- GG NAT.NAT.

>> IS NEEM OIL EFFECTIVE?>> IS ?

>> IT CAN BE, BUT YOU HAVE TO>>O FOLLOW THE LABEL WHEN YOU APPLY ANY OF THAT STUFF, BECAUSE WHENN PEOPLE START TO DO IS THEY APPL IT, IT DOES NOT WORK, THEY APPLY IT AGAIN AND AGAIN WITHOUTIT AGT READING THE LABELS, AND THEN YO GET FIGHTER TOXICITY --THE LABE- PHYTOTOXICITY.PHYTOTOXICITY.

>> ANYTHING THAT IS A SOILED>> D WRENCH WILL NOT BE EFFECTIVEWREE BECAUSE IT IS A BIOLOGIC THATBET BREAKS DOWN BACTERIA IN THEBREAI SOIL, SO FROM THAT PERSPECTIVE F DO NOT THINK OF A WORK AT ALL.T >> LINDA IS ASKING IF IT IS PERS NECESSARY TO PRUNE A DETRIMENT-- A DUTCHMEN PIPE.A DUTCHMEN PIPE.

>> SHE IS FORTUNATE IF SHE HAS A NICE STAND ESTABLISHED.NICE STA.

I WOULD LET THEM GROW.

>> THEY WILL NOT GET OUT OFI WOF CONTROL.

>> DUANE HAS A 13 FOOT BY 10CON0 FOOT GREENHOUSE.

WHAT KIND OF FLOWERS SHOULD BEE USED TO ATTRACT POLLINATORS FOR VEGETABLES?

>> INSIDE THE GREENHOUSE.USED T. INSIDE A GREENHOUSE IT IS HARDER FOR A POLLINATOR TO POLLINATE.

YOU CAN BRING THEM IN AND YOUFOU CAN NET POLLINATORS, BECAUSE AA LOT OF TIMES BEES CANNOTLOT OF T NAVIGATE THE GREENHOUSE ROOFNAVF BECAUSE THEY ARE GOING UP TO IT BUT OTHER POLLINATORS, YOU CANN GET FLIES, OTHER POLLINATORS TOO USE FOR FRUITS AND VEGETABLES.

>> HE HAS GOT TO HAVE IT OPENEDD UP OF COURSE, AND SOMETIMES INN GREENHOUSES YOU CAN ACTUALLYGREY BRING IN A BUMBLEBEE FOR THEBRIE PURPOSE.PURPOSE.

THEY SELL THEM COMMERCIALLY FORC POLLINATION.OMMERCIALLRPOLLINAT.

>> WE HAVE BEEN EMAIL ABOUT>> WT SOMEONE WHO HAS AN AMORILLISSOMS THAT IS DONE BLOOMING.AT IS DON.

>> THE BULB IS EXPENDED WITH THE FLOWER, SO THEY HAVE GOT THE STRAP LEAVES, AND THEY WENT TOO FIND A WARM, SUNNY SOUTHERNFINDN WINDOW AND PLENTY OF FERTILITY,, SHEET, -- HEAT, WATER.SHEET, --.

THEN YOU CUT OFF EVERYTHING THE MEDICAL DORMANT.

THE BULB HAS BEEN EXPENDED ANDD YOU WANT TO FORM A NEW BULB WITA THE NEW FLOWER ON THE INSIDE OFF IT FOR NEXT YEAR.

>> MOVING BACK TO THE TOPIC OFF LANDSCAPING, BOB, YOU WANT TOLAO TALK ABOUT LANDSCAPE DESIGN.

BOB: IT WAS GREAT TO HAVE THETAE VIDEO WITH DOUG WHO HASVIDE PROFESSIONAL EXPERIENCE AS AO WA LANDSCAPE DESIGNER.LANDSCAPE DE.

THE BIG THING IS YOU WANT TOTHEO DESIGN.

DO NOT JUST PUT THINGS IN THEDEE GROUND.

HOW IS THIS LANDSCAPE GOING TOO BE USED, AND REMEMBER LANDSCAPES CHANGE OVER TIME WITH THECHANGEE SEASON, SO IT DOES NOT HAVE TOH BE CAST IN CONCRETE.AV YOU DEVELOP A PLAN.OBE CAST IN .

YOU WILL LOOK AT HARDYOU WILL LD STRUCTURES.

I HAVE GOT TO DRIVE YEAR, ASTRUA PATIO I AM PUTTING IN.

THESE THINGS ARE GOING TO STAYY THERE FOREVER, SO YOU WANT TO START WITH A SITE PLAN.THERE FO.

IT DOES NOT HAVE TO BEIT DOES NE SOPHISTICATED, BUT YOU WANT TOO IDENTIFY HARDSCAPES, AND THEIDEE STRUCTURAL PLANS THAT WILL BE THERE, LARGE TREES AND IDENTIFYE THE GARDEN AREA.

AT A BARE MINIMUM, THIS IS WHATT YOU WANT TO DO.

THEN WE HAVE A NUMBER OFYOU WANF ELEMENTS OF DESIGN THAT COME INTO PLAY THERE IN THEELEMENTS E PROCESS.

YOU WANT TO THINK A LITTLE BITT ABOUT UNITY.ABOUT UNITY.

YOU WANT BLOCKS OF COLOR, THINKK ABOUT TRANSITION AS YOU MOVEABOE PERHAPS IF YOU WANT COLORPERHAPR THROUGH THE SEASON, THERE IS AO TRANSITION.

YOU WANT TO THINK ABOUTUGH THE T PROPORTION DOWN IN FRONT.

YOU WANT TO BALANCE THINGS OFF.. YOU CAN HAVE SOME FOCAL POINTSS OF INTEREST.OF INTEREST.

YOU HAVE DONE A LOT OF WORK WITH DESIGNING YOUR OWN GARDEN SPACE.

>> WHEN YOU START PLANNING YOURR GARDEN WHO IS THAT GARDEN FOR??

ARE YOU PLANTING A GARDEN FORARR YOUR NEIGHBORHOOD, ARE YOU DOING CURB APPEAL?YOUR N ALL OF THAT WILL STAY, IT IS NOT GOING TO MOVE.GOING TO MOVE.

OUR PEOPLE FROM THE STREETOUR PT LOOKING AT THIS, OR IS THIS FOR ME?LOOKING AT THIS, OR IS THIRM?

PEOPLE DO NOT TAKE THAT INTOPEOO CONSIDERATION, WHO IS IT FOR?CO?

IF IT IS FOR ME AND I AM PUTTINF IT IN THE BACK, YOU HAVE A LOTT MORE FLEXIBILITY THAN IF YOU PUT SOMETHING FOR THE WHOLESOMETHINE COMMUNITY TO SEE.

YOU NEED TO HAVE MORECOMMUNITY E FOUNDATIONS OF DESIGN AND AFOUNS BETTER DEFINITION OF HOW YOU WANT TO.IGN AND ABETTER DEFINIT.

BOB: YOU CAN DO MULTIPLE THINGSS WITH IT, JUST GET REAL BASIC AND DESIGN SOMETHING, AND THEN ONCEE YOU HAVE GOT GARDEN AREAS YOUYOU HAVE TO TAKE A LOOK AT YOUR PLANT SELECTION.

IS IT GOING TO BE HARDY?HAVE TO?

YOU WILL PUT IN PERENNIALYOU WIL MATERIAL, TREES SHRUBS, WILL ITT BE HARDY OVER TIME.BE HARDY OVE.

LOOK AT TEXTURE, COLOR, BE AWARE OF THE SIZE AND THE GROWTH HABIT .

YOU WANT TO LOOK AT WHERE IS.YOS YOUR FOUNDATION GOING TO BE.

WHERE IS THE STRUCTURE GOING TOO BE, NWC YOU HAVE FLOWERINGBE, NG PERENNIALS WHICH ARE GREAT, BUTT THEY TEND TO BE A PORTION OF THE SEASON, SO YOU DROP IN ALL OFSEF THIS COLOR FROM THE ANNUALS.THI.

THINK ABOUT THE SPRING, SUMMER,, FALL, AND WINTER INTEREST.FALL,.

A DOG WOULD IS AN EXAMPLE OF AA SHRUB THAT GIVES YOU WINTERSHRUR INTEREST, AND EVERYONE IS CONCERNED ABOUT POLLINATORS.INTS THINK ABOUT NOT JUST YOURCONCERR HERBACEOUS FUNDAMENTALS ABOUT YOUR SHRUBS AS WELL.

ANYTHING THAT IS KICKING OUTHERT FLOWERS, WE WANT TO THINK ABOUTT IS WE PUT >> THESE INTO OURIS WT LANDSCAPES.

IT COULD WELL BE THAT HE IS AITA VIABLE ROUTE SYSTEM.VIABLE ROUTE TRANSPLANT READILY AND NOW WOULD BE THE TIME TO DO IT EVEN IFBE F NOTHING IS EMERGED FROM THE SOIL , SO I THINK IT WILL GO NICELYY AND HE MAY HAVE MORE UNDER THEE SOIL SURFACE THEN HE MAY REALIZE.
