Sowing Sugar Maples
I asked the other week about trying to germinate some sugar maple seeds. I've put a few in the freezer to wait until next spring, but have a handful in the fridge for fun. They're in a sealed plastic bag with some moist peat moss. The problem I'm having is that they're all starting to brown. Is that part of the process or is that death, decay, or fungus? Is there anything I can do to keep them alive until they sprout?

Grass Seed & Torrential Rain
I've recently de-thatched, core aerated, amended, overseeded, and fertilized my lawn. There's been a lot of rain during the past couple of days in my area. In anticipation of potential seed washout, I purchased straw bales and thinly covered the lawn. However, lowest part of my lawn began puddling after last night's rain. At this point, my concern is more about grass seed rot. I'm not sure if the seed variety matters but if does, I've seeded with a blend of bullseye, cochise iv, ls1200 tall fescue and midnight II KGB. I don't believe any of my seeds have germinated prior to the rain. How long can the seeds remain in such a puddle? And what type of short term remedies that will improve the chances of the seeds recovering from such puddling? Thanks,

Soil test Results
I recieved the results from my soil test brought to the UofM. Your recommendation for fertilizer is 20-10-20. Applying 1/2 the total in late spring and late summer. Does that mean 10-5-10 for those periods? Also I have a Scott's broadcast spreader what do I set the setting on for proper appication? And finally I plan on aireating my lawn this fall. Fertilize first or fertilize after aireation?

I started to observe other Austrians in our area which is Bloomfield Royal Oak or Birmingham I started to observe other Austrians in our area which is Bloomfield Royal Oak or Birmingham and it is clearly evident That all that I observed have a similar condition. Because of our drought this summer and the excessive heat do you believe this is something besides a seasonal change. I do not believe it is a fungus. Mite. Or gal...... Sparty up!

Boxwood decline
Several sprouted English box show branches with pale green leaves, while most of the plant is of normal color. These are about three or four years old. Is the decline dangerous to my older boxwood, or is it systemic within each plant?

Order of lawn care steps
I live in Catonsville and have tall fescu lawn. What are the best practices for lawncare? In which order should I aerate, overseed and fertilize? Can I do the three at the same time? Should I leave plugs on yard or rake them away as part of thinning the thatch? Should I leave sometime, e.g., a couple of weeks, between each step?

I am Allergic to Poison Ivy
I moved from Vt to Va 14 months ago. I am experiencing poison ivy like 5 times. In some cases it shows up on my upper leg or stomach which no way I touched it directly. I am thinking my small dog is rolling in it. How long does Poison Ivy stay active? I live in Woodlawn, Va (southwest). I guess it must be possible, I have had many people who are familiar with it say that is what I keep getting. I was not getting anymore in VT for years. Is there a vaccine for this?What is it called?
