In this episode of From the Woods Today,  Dr. Jonathan Larson joins us to discuss what periodical cicadas are, why they are such an amazing part of nature, and where you can find them in Kentucky in 2024 and 2025. We also have our monthly What's Bugging My Tree segment. 5.15.24.  Watch Video From the Woods Today

In Part 2 of this Pests and Pathogens Retrospective episode, common issues such as houseplant problems, anthracnose and powdery mildew are discussed. These are three short segments that were previously aired, but we've repackage them to easier listening. Dede Terns-Thorpe and Jackie Hayden, Master Gardener Volunteers from Cornell Cooperative Extension of Columbia and Greene Counties, are back on Nature Calls: Conversations from the Hudson Valley to let you know what to look for and what you can do about it. We start with Anthracnose diseases which are caused by fungi that infect stems, branches, leaves and fruits of a wide variety of deciduous trees and shrubs as well as garden vegetables. Sycamore, ash, maple, oak and privet are especially susceptible in New York. The symptoms of these diseases are more severe in years of extended cool, wet spring weather. If you notice bugs around your houseplants, first isolate the plant and then identify the pest. Early infestations might be removed by hand picking, scraping with a fingernail or addressed using a cotton swab dipped in rubbing alcohol. Spraying a sturdy plant with water or an insecticidal soap will often remove many pests. In this segment, learn about common houseplant pests (e.g. aphids, mites, scales, mealy bugs, thrips, leaf miners, etc.) and the best ways to control them. Several different genera of fungi cause powdery mildew which looks like white powdery spores growing on the upper leaf surface of the lower leaves of a plant. Hear Dede and Jackie talk about this common summer pathogen by answering questions such as “What is powdery mildew?” “How do I manage a powdery mildew infestation?” or “What are best practices to minimize the odds of a reoccurrence of powdery mildew?” There's lots to learn about managing this common pathogen.

Glenn and Henry talk Turf management challeneges in October, Microdochium, Anthracnose, Tea, Bowls and craneflies. And Henry takes Glenn to meet his friends.

One of the many calls we get in the summer is regarding Anthracnose on Grapes. Unfortunately, when it comes to fungal diseases, often by the time you see symptoms. Scouting and prevention are key. In this show we discuss how to properly use fungicides, and how sanitation, pruning, and healthy soils will keep your fungal diseases at bay.

Tanner and Jeff talk with Extension Turfgrass Specialist Dr. Pete Landschoot about two common diseases: anthracnose and gray leaf spot. Both turf diseases can be devastating, and control of each is discussed.

A: Apply Diatomaceous Earth Get some food-grade diatomaceous earth and sprinkle it on plants where cabbage worms are spotted. The diatomaceous earth powder will kill cabbage worms by piercing their bodies. Set up a Netting Barrier Cabbage moths and butterflies may lay eggs a couple of times during the year. During these times, you should set up row barriers or netting barriers across your garden to prevent the adults from laying their eggs. No eggs, no cabbage worm problems. Dust Leaves with Cornmeal You could kill the cabbage worms by dusting the affected plants with cornmeal. The caterpillars with eat the cornmeal, swell up, and eventually die. Original all-purpose flour may also work. Apply Companion Planting Grow pest-repelling plants (e.g. thyme, mint) next to your susceptible plants. This could discourage the adult butterflies and moths from laying eggs on your valuable garden crop. Make a Natural Repellent Spray There are a number of natural ingredients, such as garlic and cayenne pepper, that may deter cabbage worms. Blend these ingredients with water to create the repellent then use a spray to apply it on the undersides of leaves. Introduce Beneficial Insects A sustainable approach to getting rid of cabbage worms is by introducing natural predators to the garden. This may include spiders, praying mantis, and ground beetles. In addition to these insects, you may also want to attract other natural predators such as birds and geckos. Q: my cucumber plants do not look healthy. The leaves have yellow spots on them. I am not noticing any pest on the plant. Again, anything I should be looking for as a cause/cure? A: You plants have a fungal and bacterial this can happen but in your pictures I do not see yellow or shrivel on the leaves that would be a fungal infection On your cucumbers you have Anthracnose this is a fungus that is most prevalent in wet and warm conditions. It can overwinter in fallen vines, leaves, and other plant debris, releasing spores in the spring to infect new plants. The spores (conidia) need moisture and mild temperatures to germinate. the first thing you can do is remove up to 25% of the leaves on the plant just remove the infected leaves and throw them in the trash this will mostly be the lower leaves on the plant Chlorothalonil (Bravo) and benomyl (Benlate) are popular fungicides used to treat anthracnose these are the active ingredients benomyl is a possible carcinogen. Chlorothalonil is a broad-spectrum agricultural fungicide that is often applied to crops in bloom when honeybees are present for pollination because it is currently deemed safe to bees If a large part of your plant is infected, you may need to remove the entire plant and start over with sanitized soil in a different part of the garden I would trime the affected leaves off the plant Q: I have hole being eaten in my bok choy what is doing this and how to I stop it A: That is caused by the Flea Beetle. No, they aren’t really fleas, and they only bite plants, not people. Try this homemade spray to control flea beetles: 2 cups rubbing alcohol, 5 cups water, and 1 tablespoon liquid soap. Test out the mixture on a leaf of the plant, let it sit overnight, then spray the rest of the plant if you don’t notice any adverse effects. Spray the mixture on the foliage of garden plants that are susceptible to these pests. Dusting your plants with plain talcum powder repels flea beetles on tomatoes, potatoes, peppers, and other plants. Use white sticky traps to capture flea beetles as they jump. Insecticides may be used early in the season, but are generally unnecessary in the control of flea beetles on adult plants. Be extra diligent if your soil has history of bacterial diseases.

It is an organophosphorus compound, specifically a phosphonate, which acts by inhibiting the plant enzyme 5-enolpyruvylshikimate-3-phosphate synthase. Glyphosate is a non-selective herbicide, meaning it will kill most plants. It prevents the plants from making certain proteins that are needed for plant growth. Glyphosate stops a specific enzyme pathway, the shikimic acid pathway. The shikimic acid pathway is necessary for plants and some microorganisms. What is it mainly used for ? When used precisely and according to label instructions, herbicides help to keep weeds from competing with crops for water, sunlight and nutrients. Glyphosate helps farmers and homeowners control weeds in many different kinds of plantings How does it work? Glyphosate-based herbicides all work on the same biochemical principle – they inhibit a specific enzyme called EPSP synthase [source: Funke et. al.]. Without that enzyme, plants are unable to produce other proteins essential to growth, so they yellow and die over the course of several days or weeks. A majority of plants use this same enzyme, so almost all plants succumb to glyphosate. Why do some feel it is unsafe? Although generally believed to be less toxic to humans than other herbicides, some experts have concerns about the possibility that it may disrupt endocrine activity in people [source: U.S. National Institutes of Health]. Other animals, including frogs and fish, may also suffer negative effects. Scientists continuing to study glyphosate have noted increases in Non-Hodgkin lymphoma, a type of cancer, in some people exposed to the chemical [source: Dixon]. The World Health Organization's International Agency for Research on Cancer stated in March 2015 that it believed glyphosate is "probably carcinogenic to humans." In segment two Joey and Holly go over lesser known facts about landfills There are fewer landfills today. In the 1980s, the United States was home to more than 7,600 dumps but that number was slashed by more than 75 percent – to 1,908 – by 2009. That’s partly because the average landfill grew substantially (approx. 4x) in size. It doesn’t mean we’re producing less waste. Trash production has actually tripled in the U.S. since 1960! And, contrary to popular belief, much of this waste isn’t decomposing quickly, if at all. Landfill excavators have found 40-year-old newspapers with print that’s still completely legible. We have room to grow, but at what price? Nine out of America’s 10 largest landfills will reach maximum capacity in less than 50 years. Is there room for new sites? Sure, though laws restricting the location of landfills means a longer haul for trash and increased emissions from trucking. Landfills can find new life. Once a landfill reaches capacity, it can be capped and the area repurposed into nature preserves, golf courses, resorts and more. But, that doesn’t change the fact that we’re sometimes just tossing away otherwise valuable materials – like yard clippings, food and other organic waste – which could be turned into renewable energy through anaerobic digestion. Landfills burn methane gas. A byproduct of trash in landfills is methane gas, which is vented or burned off via embedded pipes and released into the atmosphere. These harmful emissions are damaging the environment. Methane that comes from biomass can actually be turned into a power source! Here are a few reasons why we shouldn’t toss food into landfills. It increases greenhouse gas emissions. More food reaches landfills than any other single material in municipal solid waste. Food is a significant source of methane gas, which has 21x the global warming potential of CO2! If we diverted food waste from landfills, it would be like removing 2 million cars from the road. It’s a waste of resources. Nothing ever decomposes completely when it’s buried in the ground, not even organic waste like food scraps. It just sits there untreated and creates loads of nasty fumes. Instead, we could be turning organic waste into clean, renewable energy through anaerobic digestion. It’s a waste of money. Ten percent of the total U.S. energy budget goes toward food production and we waste between 30 to 40 percent of the food supply…that’s something like $165 billion each year that we’re basically just throwing away. Think about what you can do Reusing, striving to produce less waste, etc is the best. In segment three Joey and Holly welcome their guest founder of IV Organics https://ivorganics.com/ charles Malki https://www.amazon.com/Saving-World-Home-Garden-Gardening/dp/B0884KFBC6 Charles is a biologist, attorney, all American swimmer, inventor, entrepreneur, and author. He recently published a book called Saving the World with the Home Garden. He also is the founder of IV Organic with a popular YouTube channel. 1.Full disclosure, Charles’ company – IV Organic – has been a sponsor of TWVG radio show, but now that you have a book we wanted to have you on the show. Please tell us about your company, IV Organic? 2.We often advise people to use fertilizer properly for their garden, what is the vital importance of properly fertilizing and not over fertilizing? 3.You say it's good to have some pests in the garden – why? 4.In your book you talk about making free plants – how do you make free plants? What are the lesser known methods of making free plants? 5.Mycorrhizae are vital to plant life – what are they and why should the home gardener be aware of them? 6.How can we find out more about you? In segment four Joey and Holly answer gardeners questions Q Is there an organic method to keep cabbage worms off my kale and cabbage other than plucking them off every day? . A: Apply Diatomaceous Earth Get some food-grade diatomaceous earth and sprinkle it on plants where cabbage worms are spotted. The diatomaceous earth powder will kill cabbage worms by piercing their bodies. Set up a Netting Barrier Cabbage moths and butterflies may lay eggs a couple of times during the year. During these times, you should set up row barriers or netting barriers across your garden to prevent the adults from laying their eggs. No eggs, no cabbage worm problems. Dust Leaves with Cornmeal You could kill the cabbage worms by dusting the affected plants with cornmeal. The caterpillars with eat the cornmeal, swell up, and eventually die. Original all-purpose flour may also work. Apply Companion Planting Grow pest-repelling plants (e.g. thyme, mint) next to your susceptible plants. This could discourage the adult butterflies and moths from laying eggs on your valuable garden crop. Make a Natural Repellent Spray There are a number of natural ingredients, such as garlic and cayenne pepper, that may deter cabbage worms. Blend these ingredients with water to create the repellent then use a spray to apply it on the undersides of leaves. Introduce Beneficial Insects A sustainable approach to getting rid of cabbage worms is by introducing natural predators to the garden. This may include spiders, praying mantis, and ground beetles. In addition to these insects, you may also want to attract other natural predators such as birds and geckos. Q: my cucumber plants do not look healthy. The leaves have yellow spots on them. I am not noticing any pest on the plant. Again, anything I should be looking for as a cause/cure? A: You plants have a fungal and bacterial this can happen but in your pictures I do not see yellow or shrivel on the leaves that would be a fungal infection On your cucumbers you have Anthracnose this is a fungus that is most prevalent in wet and warm conditions. It can overwinter in fallen vines, leaves, and other plant debris, releasing spores in the spring to infect new plants. The spores (conidia) need moisture and mild temperatures to germinate. the first thing you can do is remove up to 25% of the leaves on the plant just remove the infected leaves and throw them in the trash this will mostly be the lower leaves on the plant Chlorothalonil (Bravo) and benomyl (Benlate) are popular fungicides used to treat anthracnose these are the active ingredients benomyl is a possible carcinogen. Chlorothalonil is a broad-spectrum agricultural fungicide that is often applied to crops in bloom when honeybees are present for pollination because it is currently deemed safe to bees If a large part of your plant is infected, you may need to remove the entire plant and start over with sanitized soil in a different part of the garden I would trime the affected leaves off the plant Q: I have hole being eaten in my bok choy what is doing this and how to I stop it A: That is caused by the Flea Beetle. No, they aren’t really fleas, and they only bite plants, not people. Try this homemade spray to control flea beetles: 2 cups rubbing alcohol, 5 cups water, and 1 tablespoon liquid soap. Test out the mixture on a leaf of the plant, let it sit overnight, then spray the rest of the plant if you don’t notice any adverse effects. Spray the mixture on the foliage of garden plants that are susceptible to these pests. Dusting your plants with plain talcum powder repels flea beetles on tomatoes, potatoes, peppers, and other plants. Use white sticky traps to capture flea beetles as they jump. Insecticides may be used early in the season, but are generally unnecessary in the control of flea beetles on adult plants. Be extra diligent if your soil has history of bacterial diseases.

Need to hear something soothing as temperatures soar? Dr. Bruce Clarke and Paul Ramina help you understand a pair of diseases capable of weakening turf in tricky growing months.

Trees Are Key Let's talk about "Keys to Anthracnose." We are already seeing symptoms of anthracnose on new leaves around Arizona ash in the Austin area. Is this something we should be concerned about? Should we start treating our trees? Listen in to learn more. Species Spotlight The Rio Grande Ash or Mexican Ash, Fraxinus berlandieriana, is a deciduous Texas native. This species is a medium-sized tree to 40 feet tall and a trunk to 2 feet in diameter, with a broad, densely-branched, rounded crown with branches that tend to droop towards the ground.

In this week's Boots In The Field Report Ken covers the need for sunshine and encourages pest teams to watch how their soybean fields are turning, indicating that if it is turning unevenly then there is a need to figure out why. He also reports on increased Goss's wilt, Tar Spot and Anthracnose sightings. Ken had a chance to talk with Adam Spelhaug from Peterson Farms Seed in North Dakota to see how crops are shaping up in their area.

In this episode of Frankly Speaking, Dr. Frank Rossi chats with Dr. Bruce Clarke of Rutgers University about the history, creation and evolution of BMPs for managing patch diseases and anthracnose in turf. Programmatic approaches to control, intertwining of micronutrients and cultural practices, solid vs hollow tine aerification, self-inflicted issues, topdressing, nitrogen... and the real possibility -- with strict adherence to established BMPs -- of moving toward a scouting-based curative program for anthracnose management. Frank and Bruce also talk about the upcoming 13th International Turfgrass Research Conference to be held July 16-21 in New Brunswick, NJ. Presented by DryJect.
