All right, you're at home with Gary Salivan. It's about
twenty minutes after the top of the air. Time to
bring in Ron Wilson. Ron does a national gardening and
landscaping show and he joins us this time each and
every week. And mister Wilson, we talked earlier in your
show about how the landscaping, the yard, the garden always
(00:20):
part of your home. And this is a busy time
of year for you, as I mogress about every four
days now, Yes, Mitchard Charlman, Yes, sir. What do I do?
Is it? When's it gonna keep on keep on mowing?
You know that gonna quit?
Speaker 2 (00:35):
I don't know, you know, But I'm not complaining because
you know, the weather's been actually has been very nice.
We've been sleep sleeping with the windows open. Been nice.
Speaker 1 (00:44):
The weather's been very nice.
Speaker 2 (00:45):
I like it. You know. The rainfall has been a
little frustrating, There's no doubt about it.
Speaker 1 (00:49):
How about the gloom?
Speaker 2 (00:51):
What about the gloom?
Speaker 1 (00:52):
I mean you don't like that or you do like it.
Speaker 2 (00:54):
I like rainy days. I like overcast days because I
know there's other sunny days that are gonna come along
with it as well.
Speaker 1 (01:00):
People are so sunny.
Speaker 2 (01:02):
Look at how well the plants have done so for
the most part.
Speaker 1 (01:05):
Ron, I'm gonna make a confession here. It was kind
of gloomy and coolish last Sunday. Lot this week, probably
I don't know, right around the upper sixties. I love
this weather.
Speaker 2 (01:20):
There you go.
Speaker 1 (01:20):
I might be the only person. Everybody else is throwing sticks.
I'd rather have it sixty eight degrees than eighty eight.
Speaker 2 (01:26):
I'll give up swimming in a swimming pool in summertime
to keep it cool like this.
Speaker 1 (01:30):
I agree. You can get a lot of work done too, yep.
Speaker 2 (01:32):
But what's gonna happen is you know, you know, darn well,
we've been through this too many years, you know, in
another couple.
Speaker 1 (01:38):
Of weeks, probably four days or.
Speaker 2 (01:41):
Days a day, I don't know. Yeah, but uh, you know,
we're gonna it's gonna get hot, yeah. And it's gonna
get sunny, yeah, and it's gonna stop raining.
Speaker 1 (01:49):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (01:49):
And all these plants that have all this great lush,
new foliage and lots of leaves and new needles and
just in your lawn looking great, all of a sudden
is deprived of that moisture and they start ship. Now
it's going to be sunny and hot, so they lose
more moisture and they can't support all the all the
leaves and all and then they start yellowing. And then
(02:12):
your your your neighbor's tree starts to drop leaves on
your on your driveway.
Speaker 1 (02:20):
Now it's just seed pods.
Speaker 2 (02:21):
But yeah, uh so you know it's coming. It'll it'll happen.
We go through that transition and we get into some
news today, but you know, what can I say? But
you know, so that's what my point is, enjoy it
while we got it, because you know it's going to
change somewhere down the road, just like you know when
you're talking about that possible frost up in the northeast.
You know, again, average wise, you know, it all averages out.
(02:45):
But I still, you know, we see these extremes like
this more and more. You know, it's like and it's
it's crazy, and I just I don't let weather bother me.
Enjoy it is what it is. You deal with it,
You work with it. You know, you go with it.
You can't change it, so you just try to do
the best that you can. And every year is going
to be different. Yeah.
Speaker 1 (03:05):
One of the cool things all the products we use outside.
They're becoming more and more tolerant of crazy weather conditions.
Speaker 2 (03:12):
They have to be.
Speaker 1 (03:13):
Yeah, they do well, they do.
Speaker 2 (03:15):
Plant selection is the same way. Now, all of a sudden,
we're looking at plants that, you know, you can really
tolerate the drought. You know, you're looking at plants that
are tough and durable. That's you know, native plants starting
to make a major comeback into the you're not comeback,
but back into our landscapes at all that are native
for the climate, and even they suffer from drought. But
you know, look at that. What's that? I'm sorry, missus,
(03:42):
missus saliva is not listening.
Speaker 1 (03:43):
Is it, Garry tell Ron to quit talking about a drought.
It's raining every day.
Speaker 2 (03:48):
Not so far, we're in good shape. But but but
but then it gets very confusion because we will get
into that and then folks can use because four weeks ago,
in an all spring, it rained like crazy. Why why
am I watering now? Yeah, because what happened four weeks
ago doesn't mean anything.
Speaker 1 (04:05):
It doesn't. Today, well, it's amazing really as much. I
don't know if we've had any real downpours. It's just
been kind of wet and gloomy, which is really weird
for this time of year. I mean it is weird
or unusual, but that within a couple hours, it seems
like the lawns dry. I mean you can mote, you
(04:26):
can work in it, you can edge it.
Speaker 2 (04:29):
So you know, it's our landscape crews for the most
part of it going every day. Yeah, I mean there
are some sites I'm sure that we're open sites where
there's no sod, no turf, all you know, new construction
that could be a little slick for a day or two,
but then they're right back into it again.
Speaker 1 (04:44):
Sure, so you know.
Speaker 2 (04:45):
It does it dries out, So you know, I don't,
I really don't. I don't let water get to me.
We got a special event. Maybe I'm a little disappointed
for that day. Otherwise, it is what it is, and
we deal with it right and do our best.
Speaker 1 (04:56):
So well, I used I used your teachings to me
this week because I was pretty excited about wanting to
kind of shape up some things and prune some things,
and I had somebody telling me that it would be
a really good day to do that. I'm not going
to mention any names, and I said, well, my friend
Ron Wilson told me I should let these light green
(05:18):
leaves just kind of harden off before I trim them up.
So that's what I did. Good for you.
Speaker 2 (05:25):
I mean, you know a lot of times that new
folds will die back when you cut it in half,
and not all of it, but a lot of it will.
Speaker 1 (05:30):
So I actually I used I think it was chapter three,
page four of the Ron Wilson Guide to Getting Out
of Work. That's what I used. I used that quote
and dog Gonet I got an eye roll, but it worked.
Speaker 2 (05:43):
I bring all those out for Father's Day especially, you know,
it's the you'll just get out and pretend that you're
working in the yard and garden. Yeah, yeah, and there's
ways to pretend.
Speaker 1 (05:53):
Yeah, I'm going to get that chapter today. Yeah, I'm
going to read that. Well.
Speaker 2 (05:57):
It's titled It's all about Easy as it should be
so co written by Gary Sullivan.
Speaker 1 (06:03):
All all the chores around the house, you should you
should kind of do your research, know what needs to
be done, and then try to figure out not the
cheapest way and not the you know, unsuccessful way, but
the easy way. And there's a difference.
Speaker 2 (06:20):
You know what I saw, friend of mine, I haven't
seen a long time yesterday and he just retired and
he said, you know, I can't do stuff like I
used to, blah blah blah. And I agree, it's all
about easy. So now when I start to do projects
and I just get into them, go, Now, that ain't
gonna work. I say, call somebody to fix this for me? Well,
can you call somebody to come out and redo this deck?
(06:40):
Can you call somebody to come out? And he said, so, yeah,
it's really easy. I just make a phone call.
Speaker 1 (06:44):
Yeah, yeah, well that's true. That's true. The biggest thing
now is getting people out to do it. That's the Yeah,
that's you know, that's a challenge now. And I was
just reading an article about trade schools how the enrollments
increase so much, and colleges enrollments kind of and you know,
with AI and with jobs and everything else, good skills
