Does your cedar windbreak seemed thin? Are you able to see
through it? Have you noticed bag-like things hanging from
the branches? If so -- you may have an infestation of Bagworms!

Black
Knot of Cherry & Plum
Knots are initially green and soft but then turn brown, harden,
and finally become black as they expand and age. Mature knots
eventually encircle the infected branch and may be several
inches to 1 foot (30 cm) or more in length. |

Cluster Fly
They look very similar to house flies but have a fine golden
hair on their thorax. They are earthworm parasites during
the summer, but invade homes during the fall to spend the
winter. If they get in they will be a nuisance all winter
long.

Coddling
Moth
The common "worm" found in apples. Pheromone traps
can be used as monitoring tools. Band to trap. (To create
substitute location for the codling moth larvae to spin their
cocoons and pupate, band the tree trunks and large branches
by tying 6-inch strips of burlap or cardboard around them.
For central New York, band three times: May, mid-June, to
early July, and August. Timing in other locations may vary
slightly. Check for larvae and cocoons and kill those you
find.) Pick up all drops in late August and September. |
|
Colorado
Potato Beetle
Adult potato beetles are yellow and have ten black longitudinal
stripes on their wing covers, and are about 3/8" in length.
The larvae (or slugs, as they are sometimes called) are brick
red in color, hump-backed, soft bodied and are a bit more
than 1/2" in length when full-grown. They have two rows
of black spots on either side of the body. Eggs are orange-yellow
in color and laid in clusters on the underside of the leaves. |
|
Common
Potato Scab
Potato scab is a common tuber disease that occurs throughout
the potato growing regions of the world. Although scab does
not usually affect total yields, significant economic losses
result from reduced marketability of the tubers. |

Planting
Plants are very active in ways that are not so obvious to
the casual observer. For example, plants change the chemistry
of the soil, and influence the types of microorganisms that
grow there. They actively compete with other plants for space.
Some will poison their neighbor's offspring to maintain a
competitive advantage, while others change the environment
in ways that benefit other species. Plants wage a constant
battle with insects, relying heavily on chemical warfare.

Corn
Smut
The plant may be infected at any time in the early stages
of its development, but gradually grows less susceptible after
the formation of the ear. Any part of the plant above the
ground can be invaded, although it is more common on the ears,
the tassels, and the nodes than it is on the leaves, the internodes,
and aerial roots. The boil is composed of a white, smooth
covering, enclosing a great mass, sometimes 4 or 5 inches
in diameter, of black, greasy, or powdery spores. After the
spores mature, the covering becomes dry and brittle, breaks
open, and permits the black powdery contents to fall out.(
|
Common smut, caused by Ustilago maydis, causes infection
of most above ground parts of corn, but is most frequently
found on ears. |
