Hi! I need to find a website where the current season’s chill hours are recorded. I’d like to keep track of how many have accrued for this season’s fruit trees production I have. Most sites lead me to other states, and I don’t have an accurate station ID for near Katy, Tx. Where can I find this tracking information? Thanks! 

We get Bagworms on our arborvitae and they have done some serious damage. Because we are beekeepers we try to find a Bt solution. Thanks, Joe Hahn

Hi Plant Expert, I just bought a new fiddle tree and I noticed the following: - dark brown spots on the leaves - top leaf bud looks dark almost dead and worried there wont be new growth. Do you think it'll keep growing? - one of the bottom leaf dropped I have attached photos. You'll notice the leaves are wet. I just watered the plant and washed down the leaves. There was a lot of white powder/dust on the leaves. Thanks in advance for your help, Michelle

I have 12 bare root tree saplings. What is the best way to plant them now? Thanks, Pat Gray

These weeds suddenly popped up in all of my gardens late fall. Also creeping Charlie took over late in season like gang busters!!! I thought I had seeded and then this stuff popped up that I had never seen before. I am pretty horrified. Will they die down over this winter or am I going to be weeding yet two more weed species this spring.

Is this the wrong time of year to prune blueberry bushes?

How do I become a CSA is there a lisc requirement

I have a small hill/slope for a front yard. I live near Roland Park in a row home where most homes have vinca ground cover as their front lawn. Prior to purchasing my home a new plumbing lines was installed from the sidewalk and a good portion of the lawn was dug up and between buyers became covered with weeds. I have initially cleared and replanted vinca over 3 springs and weeds still are taking over not allowing vinca to spread/ flourish, ie, more weeds than vinca. I have spent hundreds of dollars on vinca and hours weeding but I am not winning the battle. can you recommend a preemergent weed product/weed plan that won’t kill the vinca? I would appreciate any advice you can offer. Thank you!

My Schefflera is dropping leaves quite rapidly. What could be the cause or do they sometimes go through this cycle? Thanks!

Three year vine: can the main trunk be cut to remove the high cordon in order to make a low cordon only vine so that I can use VSP. Or, should the top cordon be lowered to be the low cordon? I think that the low cordon what work best for me in my limited space. My Top cordon is approximately 5 feet from the ground. Thank You
