Warmer weather inspires plans for local gardens With fingers crossed that warm days have frightened away winter's chill, Utah gardeners can begin deciding the kinds of vegetables to plant in this year's gardens. Horticulturists at Utah State University Univer-sity have some timely tips to help gardeners get the best produce for the time and money they invest in their gardens. Bill Varga, USU research horticulturist, hor-ticulturist, cautions gardeners who have saved seed from last year's garden that it's genetically highly improbable im-probable that such seed will yield the same bumper crop as a year ago. He said seed companies remove the variability in seed production. 1 Alvin Hamson, USU Extension Horticulturist, Hor-ticulturist, has listed a number of recommended seed varieties in his popular extension publication, "Growing "Grow-ing Vegetables: Recommended Varieties for Utah," EC 313. available through extension county offices. (The publication is currently being updated.) Not only does the publication list seed varieties, it lists the number of days from planting lo harvest, germination ger-mination temperatures, average planting plan-ting dates (which vary around the state), the length of a row that will yield typical neids for a family of five, the number of seeds per foot of row, the numlxT of plants or amount of seed needed, planting depth and plant spacing. Varga says local garden stores are Die best places to look for the smls you want, however, some smls must be ordered, and he lists several companies com-panies thai publish Seed catalogs; -Ilurpee Seed. 3oq Park Ave,, Warminster, War-minster, !A WM, -Gurncy Seed, im I'age St,.

No matter how good the seeds are, they will not bear their maximum yield without properly fertilized soil. Utah soils are usually deficient in nitrogen and phosphorus. Hamson recommends that gardeners apply 3 pounds of a 10-20-0 fertilizer, or the equivalent, for each 100 square feet of garden. Spread half the fertilizer before plowing, and work the other half into the top 3 inches of soil after plowing. Hamson offers several other tips that can help make this year's garden a success: Plant only a few feet of a row at one time if planting lettuce, peas, radishes and other crops that rapidly overmature at harvest lime. Plant an early, semi-early, mid-season mid-season and late variety of corn at the same lime to spread the harvest period. Keep space occupied. When early crops are gone, make second seedings or plant vegetables such as snap beans, beets, broccoli, cabbage, car-rots, car-rots, cauliflower, sweet com, kohlrabi, summer squash and Swiss chard. Control weeds early. An hour spent hoeing small weeds will save hours of work later when weeds are mature, Control insects when they first appear, Softball team meeting.
