There are basically 3 ways to grow a cedar.
One way is to dig it bare root in the field in a ball in spring. The larger the cedar, the more important it is that it has a large root system to support itself, so it's not uncommon to find a large root ball with this type of cedar. To ensure they can be planted all season long, they are sometimes placed into pots to keep them upright, and to make them easier to handle.
Another way is to start it as a small cedar in a pot, and grow it from very young in progressively larger pots until it is a bigger plant with a dense complete root system. This 'container growing' means you have NO TRANSPLANT SHOCK, and with deep regular watering and feeding the first season it will grow and thrive.
At Grobe's... these are the only 2 ways we sell cedar.
The third way is to clear a field of old, field grown cedars and place THEM into plastic pots. As heavy root balls cost a lot to freight, the smaller this pot is, the cheaper it is for the seller. So, fewer roots go with the plant. Makes it easy to plant, and cheap to buy... but it is much harder on the cedar.
In fact, someone unsuspecting might believe it is a container grown plant. It isn't.
So what happens next? No roots to collect water and then this...
So...does Grobe's offer an inexpensive quality cedar?
We do - and they are now available this spring.
But not for long, because they soon will be gone.

WHAT ABOUT CRABGRASS?
It might start as a little bit noticed in the fall..but it can soon become this:
Crabgrass is an opportunistic annual weed that spreads by fall dispersed seeds.
These germinate in early spring... and then there is no easy way to remove it from your lawn.
However...an application of a natural corn gluten based fertilizer IN EARLY SPRING will help to prevent crabgrass and other weed seeds from germinating.

NEED MORE PROOF?
Below is what you typically get when you seed using a typical 'big bag' of soil or topsoil.
Yes - the grass germinates... but the surface cracks and doesn't re-wet well.
And of course you think YOU did it wrong, or that the seed is bad!
Below is what you will see when using Viva Lawn Repair Mix
Grass is 2x thicker and healthier looking.
Did we mention that Viva Lawn Repair Mix is also 'free of weeds'?
That 'big bag of soil' guy can't say that!

APPLY NEMATODES FOR GRUB CONTROL NOW
Lawn grubs are the larval stages of June Beetle or Japanese Beetle, and while they enjoy turfgrass roots they can feed on other plant roots too.
Nematodes are microscopic roundworms that when applied properly to the lawn (soil temperature over 10 degrees Celsius, overcast conditions, watered in well) will seek out and infest damaging lawn grubs. Live organisms, they are safe around kids, pets and even earthworms and are at present the only available control for a grub pest in Ontario. They can be stored in your refrigerator for up to 60 days to permit you to get this job done when convenient. While best controlled in late summer or early fall, a spring application will help to reduce grub populations as well.

Remember this pest and his many friends?
NEMATODES HELP TO CONTROL HIM TOO!
