		<description><![CDATA[What’s worse than finding a worm in your apple? A: Finding half a worm. Modern pesticides and strict inspection policies have made finding a codling moth larva, or worm in an apple from a supermarket’s produce department a pretty rare thing for most consumers. Even though kids nowadays have never had that experience, the friendly [&#8230;]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[The almost daily rain we had this spring really put a damper on fruit tree spraying. Pesticides work best if they are applied at least 24 hours before a rain. When a rain happens before the next spray, the effectiveness is reduced as the material begins to wash off. Even a light rain can wash [&#8230;]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[At a function I attended over this past weekend the conversation turned to gardening. A friend mentioned his apple trees were being raided by an unknown animal. This animal was very stealthy, so stealthy in fact, that it left virtually no trace of ever being there. The thief left no footprint despite the fact that [&#8230;]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[It&#8217;s tempting to prune fruit trees in early March especially on warm, sunny days when were out in the yard looking for some thing to do. Usually it&#8217;s fine to do so, but I like to wait to prune until after the chance of freezing rain has past. A heavy accumulation of ice during an [&#8230;]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[According to my records, my grapes are about ten days ahead of last year at this date. Every growing season is different and any particular year doesn&#8217;t necessarily line up with seasonal average growing conditions. Ten days is a long time when it comes to grapes. I covered the grapes with netting last week to [&#8230;]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[This is another episode in the grape vine cutting story that began last spring. At that time I took some pieces of grapevine that I cut off the vines during pruning and used them to start new grapevines. You can browse through my older blog posts to find out about those grapes.

After a long ride through the postal system, they were glad to be tucked into our new strawberry bed.

		<description><![CDATA[Regular readers of this blog know that I like to talk about the idea of growing near-organic apples. With the near-organic method, you spray as little as three times early in the season when the apples are still very small &#8212; starting when they first begin to grow. Then two more sprays are applies spaced [&#8230;]]]></description>

That whole process  of ripening is known as veraison  in the wine making world. But for me and the neighborhood birds, it&#8217;s just plain ripening. The [&#8230;]]]></description>
