Got Nematodes?

Do your plants look like they are suffering a bit? Are you noticing some spotting and dry-looking foliage? You might have nematodes.



Some examples of Nematode damage to the foliage:

When you notice this damage, it is likely from Nematodes. You can confirm this by pulling a plant up and examining the roots. Nematodes cause roots to become gnarly & knotted.

To treat nematodes, you will want to use a product from Monterey Lawn & Garden called Nematode Control. This product you can use in both the spring & fall and you would treat your garden once a week for ten consecutive weeks. You would mix at a ratio of half a cup to three gallons of water.
