Let’s Garden

3 Steps to Protect Your Garden During a Heat Wave To minimize damage, many experts recommend planting native plants to begin with - plants that have evolved over thousands of years and are well adapted to the local conditions. But, a heat wave can damage the native plants as well and besides, we all love a bit of variety.

Another thing we must do is to recognizing the signs of heat damage and provide that particular plant some extra care or move it in the shade. A heat-damaged or dehydrated (usually both go hand-in-hand) plant will reveal itself by displaying droopy, yellow leaves throughout the sun-exposed area; whereas the shaded leaves will have a healthy green coloration. The yellowing generally occurs around the edges and veins and might progress into brown, brittle leaves. Ultimately leading to a permanently damaged plant, unless immediate action is taken.

While you cannot undo the damage once done, you can definitely ensure that the garden stays happy and green, using these simple yet effective steps, before and during a heat wave.

Step 1: Keep the Grass Taller It is a good idea to keep the grass longer during the summer months. This has three advantages - two that are good for the garden, and one that is good for you. First, the longer leaf blades will help the soil retain moisture by shielding it from the sun. Two, it will keep the garden cooler, reducing the impact of the blazing sun. And three, it will cut your mowing time. Keep the grass approximately ½-inch longer than you usually do.

It is best to mow in the morning or evening, so that the lower, shielded leaves get time to get accustomed to the elements. Also, make sure that the blade of the mower is sharp, as a dull blade might damage the leaf tips.

Step 2: Mulch helps the soil retain moisture by reducing evaporation of water. This means the plant will require much less water to thrive. It also suppresses the growth of most weeds and provides the plants or shrubs with nutrients. Mulch is an efficient organic and fully natural substitute for both, herbicides and fertilizers.Add a thick layer (2-inch thick for finer mulch and 4-inch of the chunkier mulch) to all plant beds. Do leave a gap of a few inches around the base of the plant. Do not use a weed mat or plastic sheet as an underlay. Put the mulch deeper, over a newspaper about 16 sheet thick, to prevent weed growth. Also, do remember to weed before you mulch. Preferably, use light, reflective mulch like straw or saw dust during the summer months.

Step 3: Avoid Watering at Noon Water in the morning, before the heat sets in, ideally before 10 AM. This will make sure the plants stay hydrated during the sweltering heat and will also help in keeping the temperatures down. The next best option is late afternoon, after the worst of the heat is over, but before evening. This will ensure that the leaves stay dry during the night, which happens to be the preferred time for a fungus to take roots. Also, try to not get the leaves wet if you are watering after 5 PM.The reason for avoiding watering the plants at mid-day is that the combination of water and heat can actually scald the plants instead of having a cooling effect. Plus, most of the water might evaporate before soaking in the soil and reaching the roots.

For best results, water deep, meaning the moisture should reach at least 6 inches deep once you water the garden. Then, water again only after the top 2 inches are completely dry (usually, this means deep-watering every couple of days).

In short, the best to protect your garden during a heat wave is to disturb it as little as possible, while ensuring that it is well-hydrated, cool and the plants have sufficient nutrients.

Drowning Numbers...

Drowning is the leading cause of unintentional injury and death worldwide 2013.

78 drowning deaths in KS and MO combined Nearly 80% of people who die from drowning are male and 20% female.

Drowning is responsbile for more deaths among children (Ages 1-4) than any other cause except birth defects.

Drowning remains the second leading cause of unintentional accidental deaths behind motor vehicle crashes for two categories: children ages 1-4 and teenagers 15-19 yrs.

Take Control with Infant Aquatics

Children are naturally drawn to pools, hot tubs, lakes, ponds, streams, reservoirs and beaches. Despite a parent’s best efforts at supervision, it only takes one head turn before an accident has occurred!

The ability to float and breathe, regardless of the water’s depth, for an indefinite period of time remains the top goal of our programs.

Not just being comfortable in the water, it’s being able to swim and survive. Empower your child with the skills needed to safely enjoy the water.

We have continuous programs to keep the abilities fresh in your mind and fresh in your child’s ability.

• Constant Supervision and Swim in Pairs • Recent studies show that education, swim lessons and drowning prevention can save lives 14

INFANT AQUATICS

Why Infant Aquatics?

Children are naturally drawn to pools, hot tubs, lakes, ponds, streams, reservoirs and beaches. Despite a parent’s best efforts at supervision, it only takes one head turn before an accident has occurred.

Reasons to Get Started:

•You want your child to learn to swim and float in weeks, not years.

•You or your extended family live or vacation around backyard pools or natural bodies of water.

•You enjoy swimming and want your child to enjoy it as well.

•You would rather take control of your child’s safety than take chances.

Your Child Deserves the Lifetime Gift of Swimming!

“I’ve been advertising in KC Homes/KCHome Lifestyle magazine for many years.

During the last few tough years, it continued to be a great value when marketing my listings. I’ve received many leads over the years from the magazine and its associated online presence... It gives me an edge when interviewing with Sellers. I’m excited about the recent changes they’ve made in the magazine, and I believe their new look will bring new appeal to the magazine, and carry them into the future as still a great value and a great means of advertising for agents that want to reach more potential buyers.” Julie Deppen Keller Williams Realty Partners, Inc.

“Recently, Gwen Kemper was selected to market a property because this particular lady knew we advertised in the KCHOME and Lifestyle. In fact, she pulled out a recent issue to comment on our advertising and said she liked the fact that we did not just advertise on the Internet. Her home featured on the front cover and sold within a short time.”

Micki Trotter/Gwen Kemper of Woodward Real Estate “18 years ago I started my career in real estate. KCHOME and Lifestyle evolved and our listings are distributed by the magazine to hundreds of websites world wide and we get a lot of leads from these websites. To this day, people instinctively pick up the KCHOME and Lifestyle magazine at the grocery store, and we still receive calls daily from those house hunters.”

“KCHOME and Lifestyle has been a great partner through the years.

Always helpful.”
