“It’s silly to go on assuming that you should be in pain from gardening. There’s no reason to be.”

MADELINE HOOPER

TV series gives gardeners tips for avoiding injuries

I

By Margaret Roach

New York Times

f you want to garden smarter, you can invest in any number of tools — a telescoping pole pruner that extends your reach so you don’t have to strain quite as much, for example, or a kneeling pad with thicker cushioning. But the investment that really matters is in the most important tool of all: your body. And that requires forming new habits based on an awareness of how your body works when you’re gardening.

That’s the premise behind a new public television series called “GardenFit,” a fusion of garden tours and self-care consultations en plein air, all with a reality-show vibe.

The offering: Come for the gardens, stay for the hope of relief from aches and pains exacerbated by all that bending and crouching, and those repetitive one-handed and one-sided tasks.

The show’s genesis goes back three years, to Madeline Hooper’s aching neck and shoulder. Despite the

discomfort, Hooper, a retired public-relations executive and a longtime Hudson Valley gardener, was still outside several hours a day, doing what she loved. A friend suggested that she try a session with Jeff Hughes, who had helped him a couple of years earlier.

Hughes has worked as a personal trainer for 35 years, with businesses in Los Angeles, New York City and, since 2004, not far from Hooper.

And their sessions together not only reduced her pain, but got her thinking: What they

were doing would be useful to all of her gardener friends.

“It’s silly to go on assuming that you should be in pain from gardening,” she recalled thinking. “There’s no reason to be.”

And also: “We should share this with every person we know who gardens.”

She and Hughes eventually decided to try to do just that, although neither had ever created a television program.

The resulting series, presented by the WNET Group and distributed nationally

by American Public Television, will be shown in 19 of the country’s top 20 markets, on more than 300 affiliate stations.

The basic plot structure is simple: The pair travel to 14 gardens and small specialty

farms around the country.

Each visit begins with a tour of a notable site — among them, Matthew Larkin’s topiary collection at Black Barn Farm in the Berkshires of Massachusetts and Lauren Springer’s SEE FIT, PAGE F3

resilient garden in low-rainfall Fort Collins, Colorado.

But Hughes isn’t just enjoying the scenery. He’s watching the gardener at least as closely, with an ulterior motive.

“When it comes time to sit down with them later in the day,” he said, “I’ve already got a pretty good idea of how they carry their body and what tasks they’re doing.”

Power in the mind, and in the hips Hughes’ approach puts a cognitive slant on conventional training. He helps clients adopt new habits to replace those that are not serving them, adhering to the philosophy that if you “train the mind, the body will follow.”

Your body starts to do things incorrectly because it’s easier, Hooper said: “But then when you get the fixes, it feels so much better, because forming a new habit is welcoming to your body. I feel totally in charge of my body when I garden now — which is totally different.”

Hughes is quick to note that he’s not performing some kind of medical intervention.

“I’m just examining the cause of the problem,” he said with a laugh. “And we stop causing it.”

His biggest takeaway from decades of coaching, he said, is a pragmatic one: “If I can give somebody something they will do, they will do it. If

you give somebody something that will fix them but that they won’t do, it’s not a very good fix.”

It takes about four weeks for the new habit to start to sink in, so they check in with each gardener a month later.

One painfully familiar example of a habit that needed changing came from Elaine Burden’s Middleburg, Virginia, garden. Besides working in her extensive, English-inspired garden with its 15-foot-deep mixed borders and parterre framed by 144 boxwoods, Burden plays tennis and golf. Like raking and digging, those are very one-sided activities.

Being right-handed had her constantly twisting to the left, which made her body unbalanced. Hughes suggested some stretches to the right, and also that she consciously try to use her left hand whenever possible: to pick up a golf ball, or to twist to the right and weed with her left hand. She also practiced raking left-handed, to relieve the repetitive strain that was causing nerve issues down one leg.

It worked.

The home-base position: the armchair Several other foundational tips address the complaints that Hughes saw most frequently while they were filming “GardenFit,” and might help the rest of us, as well.

To each gardener, for instance, he stressed the hips’ key role: “They are

SUNDAY, MAY 15, 2022 | F3

power central to everything,” he said. “They’re where your power should come from by using them properly — not your knees and not your low back.”

One refrain was common to virtually every gardener they visited, Hooper said: “Everyone wanted to know how to get up and down, as we do all day when gardening, without stressing their body and without hurting their knees.”

To the rescue: the armchair.

Everyday tasks like weeding, picking up tools or digging with a trowel can be done from this position without straining your lower back.

And it’s the place to stop off on your way to crouching or kneeling, or when you’re coming back up.

“Stopping off at the armchair is kind of a home base for everything else,” Hughes said. “The ground — not your back — is holding up your body, as long as there is one arm on one leg.”

How it works: Spread your feet to just slightly past hip width. Then start by squatting down, keeping your knees from jutting forward beyond your toes. Rest your forearms on your legs, which relieves the lower back from the supporting role. If you do it right, you should feel in balance, Hughes said.

Putting a spin on things To get the rest of the way to the ground from the armchair, or back up without stressing your knees or lower back, add a spin to the move: Start from the armchair, and if you need to spin to the left, drop your right knee. As you do that, you’ll be turning, not dropping straight down.

“It provides a soft touchdown, because you’re always balanced and in control,” Hughes said.

To come back up off the ground, turn and spin back to the armchair en route. “Once I’m on the ground, I never stand straight up without twisting myself back to the armchair,” Hooper said.

Another stressor is holding a tool — a hedge clipper, for instance — out in front of you and then trying to do all the work with your arms. We need to “teach our back muscles to jump into the game,” Hughes said, specifically the ones that pull the shoulder blades downward.

Imagine you are sliding them down into your back trouser pockets.

He calls this balancing act between your arms and your back muscles the seesaw.

“Just being aware of them and making a habit of using them makes them as strong as they need to be,” he said.

If it’s a heavy lift...

The home base of the armchair comes into play again when it is time to lift that large pot or bag of potting soil — a move that can play havoc with your back if it’s done wrong.

“Just make it part of your body,” Hughes said. “Don’t hold it out in front of you.”

And then there is his prescription for something we all suffer from: overdoing it.

Think of your to-do list as the choice of rides at a county fair, he said, and don’t spend the whole day on one ride: “Go around from one ride to the next. Do one task for 30 minutes or so, then stop. Do another for the same period, and whether you are done or not, stop and do something else.”

Eventually, you can have another go at that first task, but by rotating, he said, “you didn’t push anything to the point where it wears out.”

Once, Hooper might have resisted this advice, she said, but now the county fair is her favored approach.

“This one is a real mental habit,” Hughes said. “Once you’ve done it a few times, your brain will say, ‘Hey, I have a great idea — let’s county-fair it today.’”

These growths are no cause for alarm

T

HE BARE STEMS OF oaks often are festooned with golfball-like growths in winter. Now that these growths have faded out of sight behind new leaves and shoots, those of you who stood ready to attack with pruning shears or sprayer can put away your tools, hopefully unused, until next year.

Those growths, which are called “galls,” are actually plant tissue; they are not insects or diseases. The plant is stimulated to grow such tissue in response to egg-laying by a gall-forming insect. As the insect egg hatches, the gall provides food and shelter to the larvae. The larvae eventually develop into adults that eat their way out of the galls.

There are many species of gall-forming insects, and many plant species that respond to these insects by growing galls. The gall on our Northeastern oak is called the “oak apple gall,” and it is caused by a type of wasp, Amphibolips confluens.

What can be done about these oak apple galls?

Pruning is one solution.

But the galls that you see now provided shelter and food for the gall wasps of last summer.

Therefore, there is no particular benefit in pruning them

off, unless you are offended by the sight of the galls.

Since galls are caused by insects, not diseases, no amount of spraying with a fungicide will affect gall formation. This may sound elementary, but too often gardeners attempt to control an apparent problem by reaching blindly for anything sprayable with “... icide” in its name.

The oak apple gall can be controlled with a timely spray of insecticide. Insecticide sprays must be directed to the adults, since the larvae are protected within the gall. The adults are active only during the first two weeks in May and then again during the last two weeks of July.

Before you get your sprayer out again, take note that spraying is not necessary. The oak apple gall does no harm to oak trees (though other types of galls do harm other types of plants). Even the late Dr. Cynthia Westcott, who had much less aversion than I to pesticide use, stated in her “Gardener’s Bug Book” that “there is usually nothing the gardener can do about oak galls.” The agricultural experiment station recommendation for pest control on trees and shrubs say of the oak apple gall: “Control not usually necessary.”

The galls on these oak leaves may be considered unsightly or decorative, but they do the tree little harm. (LEE REICH PHOTO)

Galls have uses aside from protecting gall-insect larvae.

“Pomme de sauge,” a gall that forms on a species of sage, is a tart, aromatic food in France.

In the American South, galls have been collected for animal feed. Need to predict the future? The type of larvae contained within a gall has been used to foretell war, peace, and famine. The high tannin content of some galls, most notably the Alleppo oak gall of Asia minor, is useful for inks and dyes. Alleppo gall ink has been specified as the ink to use for the permanent records of such institutions as the U.S. Treasury and the Bank of England. The nectar within certain galls of the

Southwest is an important bee food, 40 pounds of which might be cached in a single hive.

So why not ignore, admire, or learn about these benign galls rather than spray to get rid of them? Besides being unnecessary, spraying is not without hazard. There is danger of poisoning humans and pets, and spraying can upset ecological balances and give rise to new problems. Nothing gets my gall like unnecessary spraying.

Escale (“stopover” in French) was created to appeal to the world traveler not only with the time zones, but with the colorful flags of the world represented on the watch’s face. The images of the flags also link the contemporary wristwatches to earlier days of Louis Vuitton, when travelers could customize their LV luggage with flags of the countries where they traveled.

If you need something stronger, mix a small amount of dishwashing detergent with warm water and use this to clean your jewelry. If your earrings don’t have pearls or foil-backed rhinestones, you can dilute white vinegar or lemon juice in water, soak a cotton ball in the solution, and hold it to the green spot. Or apply ketchup to the spot; it is acidic, and its thick consistency means it won’t run like a liquid. But be careful when you use acids to clean jewelry! They can discolor gold-tone metals, damage pearls (both real and fake) and foil-backed stones, and weaken some glues. To keep

verdigris from forming, store your pieces separately, avoid exposing them to moisture, oils and cosmetics, and make sure your skin is clean and dry when you wear them.

30-year US mortgage rate climbs to 5.3% 15-year rate down to 4.48%

By Susan Doyle and Michele Lerner

The Washington Post

Mortgage rates continued to climb this week, adding more financial strain on hopeful home buyers as they wade into the competitive spring and summer markets.

The 30-year fixed-rate mortgage averaged 5.3%, a rise from the previous week when it averaged 5.27%, according to data released Thursday by Freddie Mac. This time last year, the 30year rate was 2.94%.

The rate for the 15-year fixed-rate mortgage averaged 4.48%, down from the previous week’s average of 4.52%. A year ago at this time, it averaged 2.26%. The five-year adjustable-rate averaged 3.98%, up from the previous week’s 3.96%.

A year ago at this time, it averaged 2.59%.

Meanwhile, mortgage applications increased 2% from one week earlier, according to the Mortgage Bankers Association. The refinance index fell 2% from the previous week and was 72% lower than the same week one year ago.

“Mortgage applications increased for the second consecutive week, driven by a 5% jump in purchase activity,” Bob Broeksmit, the president and CEO of the Mortgage Bankers Association, said in an email. “With the spring home-buying season in full swing, demand is still strong in most of the country, despite mortgage rates now at highs last seen in 2009.”

The Washington Post’s Rachel Siegel contributed to this report.

Clever twist on classic style

HEN IT COMES to maximizing the living space in your home, the outside needs to be just as attractive and comfortable as the inside.

If you’re a do-it-yourselfer looking for an affordable way to furnish that space, this Adirondack-style twin-seater project is a great way to enjoy the porch, patio or deck this summer. A clever twist on an all-American classic, the project is comfortable, attractive and durable — all in a practical, budget-friendly package.

The twin-seater calls for standard poplar lumber (as pictured; other species will also work), making it a green alternative to plastic or metal outdoor furniture. It’s also easy to build, featuring fullsize patterns for all the curved and angle cuts.

Construction is straightfor-

ward. Simply trace the pieces onto wood, cut everything out and sand. Next, apply finish of choice to all the parts. Finally, assemble the project using screws and carriage bolts.

The twin-seater measures about 54 inches long by 38 inches tall by 39 inches deep.

The Adirondack Twin-Seater plan, No. 938, is $10.95 and includes full-size patterns, stepby-step directions with photos, construction diagrams, and a shopping list and cutting schedule. Please include $3.95 for postage and handling on all orders and allow about two weeks for delivery.

To order by mail, clip this article and send it with a check or money order to U-Bild Features, c/o The Republican, 741B Olive Ave., Vista CA 92083. To order by credit card, visit U-Bild on the web at u-bild.com.
