SUMMARY:Green Thumb 6-9-22: Tips for Diagnosing Tomato Plant Problems
DESCRIPTION:Please join us for: \n“Tips for Diagnosing Tomato Plant Problems to Set You on Your Way Towards Solving (or Better Yet\, Avoiding) Solanaceous Crop Problems” presented by WSU Extension Diagnostician\, Jenny Glass via Zoom. \nUse this link to join the Zoom Presentation on Thursday June 9th at 12:00 noon. \nOr join by phone: 253 215 8782\nMeeting ID: 920 0799 1742\nPasscode: 709395 \nJenny Glass\, diagnostician at the WSU Puyallup Plant & Insect Diagnostic Lab for the past two decades\, has an interesting history with tomatoes and other Solanaceous plants. Hairy nightshade was her favorite weed to remove in her childhood vegetable garden in Poulsbo as it was fuzzy to the touch and a satisfying amount of the roots still attached to the plant after hand pulling. During a Peace Corps volunteer stint in The Gambia (West Africa) during the mid-1990s\, she distributed tomato seeds in her efforts to support the work of women farmers in the Upper River Division where she lived- only to find that the cultivar she had been able to purchase was unfortunately highly-susceptible to root-knot nematode infection leading to poor crop performance- lesson learned: avoid monocultures. In her Master’s degree work at Oregon State University\, she worked with Phytophthora infestans\, the dreaded Oomycete pathogen associated with late blight of potato and tomato and almost lost her first year research efforts as she forgot that the clonal lineage of pathogen she was using for research was a recent re-emergent that was characterized by rapidly aggressive spread relative to the original strains responsible for the historic potato blights that she had been studying in the literature- so planning a vacation right after field inoculation was a poor idea. And after a lifetime of having to explain that eating fresh tomatoes wasn’t really her thing\, she discovered the culinary joy of roasted tomatoes and has never looked back on trying to plant enough plants (‘Juliet’ is one of her favorites for PNW gardens) for the salads\, soups\, and stews she failed to partake of in years past. Jenny can be reached at jennyglass@wsu.edu

SUMMARY:Green Thumb 6-23-22: Scheduling Planting for Fall and Winter Gardening
DESCRIPTION:Bob Cain prepares the soil for planting\n“Scheduling Planting for Fall and Winter Gardening” by Bob Cain \nThursday\, June 23\, 2022 \n12 noon to 1pm on Zoom \n The Olympic Peninsula is uniquely suited to grow vegetables all year thanks to its geographic position and mild climate. And with food prices on the rise\, it pays to know more about growing vegetables year-round. Find out how four-season gardening can benefit your family by providing good nutrition and additional food security. Join veteran Master Gardener Bob Cain for the Green Thumb Gardening Tips Series Zoom presentation “Scheduling Planting for Fall and Winter Gardening” on June 23rd from noon – 1:00 p.m. for valuable information on end-of-year growing. \nFind a direct link to the Zoom presentation here. \nOr join by phone: 253-215-8782 \nMeeting ID: 920 0799 1742 \nPasscode: 709395 \nBob will discuss the local climate and how it influences what\, when and where vegetables can be grown\, as well as reasons why we should consider this as a food security option. He will also look at the opportunities and limitations of growing vegetables during the colder parts of the year when many vegetables will be commanding peak prices. \nBob will distinguish between fall and winter gardens since they require slightly different approaches\, planting schedules and limitations. “Some gardeners may prefer to try a fall garden first and see how that works for them. If their attempts are successful\, then perhaps they will make the leap to winter gardening\,” Bob suggested. \nBob will look at limitations of fall and winter gardening—such as supplemental heat needs and weather protection—and provide examples of how they can be overcome by using a bit of ingenuity and forethought. “Fall and winter gardening can be carried out even where the planting area is small\, so do not let that discourage you\,” Bob said. In addition\, many of the gardening techniques discussed will carry over and can be used to get a jump-start for growing in the spring. \nBob earned his undergraduate and master’s degrees in biology and chemistry and has a Ph.D. in chemistry. He has 40 years of experience growing vegetables in Scotland\, Ireland\, Colorado and Washington. Bob is a veteran of the Clallam County Master Gardeners since 2009. He has written monthly articles on plant disease for the Clallam County Master Gardener Newsletter and is a frequent contributor to gardening columns in the local newspaper. Bob has been celebrated as the 2009 Master Gardener Intern of the Year and 2011 Master Gardener of the Year. He served as the Garden Manager of the Woodcock Demonstration Garden in Sequim for seven years and is a past President and Board member of the Master Gardener Foundation of Clallam County. \nFor more information on gardening in the colder months\, join Bob for a more detailed and comprehensive presentation on “Fall and Winter Gardens” on July 16th from 10:30 a.m. – noon at the Clallam County Master Gardener Woodcock Demonstration Garden in Sequim as part of the “Digging Deeper” series. This presentation which will cover additional topics such as successful varieties for this area and what vegetables work best in a four-season rotation. \nGreen Thumb Education Series Presentations are held from 12 to 1 pm on the second and fourth Thursdays of most months. Talks are currently only being offered by online streaming. Please see instructions for accessing the live stream.

SUMMARY:Green Thumb Lecture Series July 14th\, 2022: Nutrient Decline in Vegetables
DESCRIPTION:“Nutrient Decline in Vegetables – What is the Evidence?” by Muriel Nesbitt \nThursday\, July 14\, 2022 \nFind a direct link to the Zoom presentation here. \nOr join by phone: 253-215-8782 \nMeeting ID: 920 0799 1742 \nPasscode: 709395 \n What is nutrient density and why is it important to you and your family? Simply put\, it is the amount of nutrients in a serving of food\, or a certain amount of food (i.e.\, eight ounces). A deficiency in food nutrients can affect food quality\, lowering the nutritional value which makes it less helpful to your body and can negatively impact the taste of the food as well. \nJoin Clallam County Master Gardener Muriel Nesbitt for a Green Thumb Gardening Tips Zoom presentation on July 14th from noon – 1:00 p.m. for a look at nutrient decline in vegetables and what that means for your family and your garden. \nAccording to USDA data\, a decline in nutrient density for many foods has been occurring over the past 50 years. Muriel will discuss evidence that indicates that the nutrient density of vegetables has been declining markedly in the last century. She will also talk about the response of plants to elevated atmospheric carbon dioxide. \nMuriel will present the effects of decline in nutrient density\, along with some suggestions about what gardeners might do to ensure the quality of their food plants. “It may help gardeners make choices that maximize the nutrient density of their crops\,” Muriel said. \nMuriel began her career as a high school teacher in Dar es Salaam\, Tanzania. She went on to become a graduate student at the University of Washington where she earned a Ph.D. in genetics. Muriel was a professor of biology at University of California\, Los Angeles for two years and then taught biology at University of California\, San Diego for 35 years before retiring to Port Angeles in 2008. \nGreen Thumb Education Series Presentations are held from 12 to 1 pm on the second and fourth Thursdays of most months. Talks are currently only being offered by online streaming\, due to current social distancing concerns with COVID-19. Please see instructions for accessing the live stream. Presentations and associated printed materials will be archived on the local articles and archived presentations portion of our website.

SUMMARY:Green Thumb Series - Mushroom Cultivation\, Carbon\, and Soil
DESCRIPTION:Lowell Dietz is passionate about growing fungi\nMorels. Chanterelles. Portabellas. If you can’t get enough mushrooms\, why not try growing them yourself? Join mushroom hobbyist Lowell Dietz for a Clallam County Master Gardener Green Thumb Gardening Tips Zoom presentation on July 28th from noon – 1:00 p.m. Find out more on the soil and cultivation needed for growing these fabulous fungi. \nFind a direct link to the Zoom presentation here. \nOr join by phone: 253-215-8782 \nMeeting ID: 920 0799 1742 \nPasscode: 70939 \nWhen Lowell first ventured into mushroom farming\, he made an interesting discovery. He created a byproduct known as biochar while trying to extract more heat from wood fuel used to cook straw for mushroom cultivation. Biochar is black carbon produced from biomass sources like wood chips or plant residues. It can act like a sponge and serve as a habitat for many beneficial soil microorganisms that are known to promote soil and plant health. \n“The mixture proved to be similar to the regenerative soil created by ancient farmers along the Amazon and its tributaries\,” Lowell observed. Then when he added the biochar to another natural byproduct—worm castings—a healthy mushroom-growing environment was born. “Soil bacteria stash nutrients (normally outgassed by plants) into biochar ‘lockers’. Gardeners can use this information to create soil that does not need fertilizer\,” Lowell said. \nLowell is a carpenter who grows oyster mushrooms; a hobby that he says pays for itself. After moving to Sequim in 2006\, he learned of vermiculture—the cultivation of annelid worms (such as earthworms or bloodworms) for use in composting—in a Master Gardener event. He started selling composting worms in 2008 and so far\, he has sold over 109\,000 worms. Lowell’s mushroom farm also sells plastic bags stuffed with colonized straw\, or “mushroom growing kits.” After learning that bacteria were responsible for healing a health issue\, he became a “gut bacteria evangelist” and determined it was his mission in life to reveal natures “secrets.” \nGreen Thumb Education Series Presentations are held from 12 to 1 pm on the second and fourth Thursdays of most months. Talks are currently only being offered by online streaming\, due to current social distancing concerns with COVID-19. Please see instructions for accessing the live stream. Presentations and associated printed materials will be archived on the local articles and archived presentations portion of our website.

SUMMARY:Digging Deeper Education Series - Novel Small Fruits for Home Gardens 8-6-22
DESCRIPTION:Cyndi Ross will share about black and red currants\nWith so many small fruits available to home gardeners in the Pacific Northwest\, why not grow something different … something you cannot buy at the local grocery store? \nOn Saturday\, August 6\, from 10:30 am to 12 noon\, local gardeners Cyndi Ross and Marty Kaler will talk about a few of the more unusual small fruits that can be grown on the North Olympic Peninsula. The presentation will take place at the Master Gardener Demonstration Garden at 2711 Woodcock Road in Sequim. \nCyndi will talk about red\, white\, and black currants. Marty will talk about aronia and honeyberries. They will cover everything you need to know to grow these small fruits in the home garden including recommended varieties\, site selection and preparation\, irrigation\, fertilization\, and pruning. \nCyndi\, originally from Texas\, received a bachelor’s degree in Agronomy/Production Horticulture from Texas Tech University. After graduation\, she moved to Minnesota where she worked as a chemist for 27 years focusing on cleaning solutions for food and beverage companies. In 2000 Cyndi joined Ramsey County Master Gardeners in Saint Paul\, Minnesota\, and began growing currants. In 2011\, she moved to the North Olympic Peninsula with thoughts of growing wine grapes. After realizing the climate was not well-suited for this crop\, she began growing currants\, using the knowledge she gained in Minnesota. Cyndi now sells her currants to Finnriver Farm & Cidery in Chimacum\, Washington\, which uses her black currants to make an award-winning cider and her red currants to make a dessert wine. \nMarty Kaler will share about aronia and honeyberries.\nMarty Kaler is the former owner of Strait Music in Port Angeles. He grew up on a farm in Ohio and moved to Washington in 1976. He fell in love with aronia berries due to their reported health benefits and began growing them (and other small fruits) in 2013. Marty considers himself a hobby berry grower and has learned through personal research and trial and error. He now sells aronia and honeyberry plants wholesale to Sunny Farms and Airport Garden Center. In addition to growing small fruits\, Marty plays music with his lovely wife\, Marilyn\, and others and has performed with local bands Twisted Roots\, Tin Sandwich\, and others. \nCyndi and Marty are ready to share their enthusiasm and many years experience growing these small fruits with local gardeners. Please join us for an interesting and informative presentation. \nDigging Deeper presentations are held from 10:30 am to 12 noon on the first and third Saturdays of most months. Presentations cover basic gardening topics relevant to many home gardeners. Presentations are free and open to the public and are scheduled for 90-minutes to allow for demonstrations and questions from viewers. The August Digging Deeper presentations are scheduled to occur out of doors\, in-person at the Master Gardener Demonstration Garden at 2711 Woodcock Road in Sequim. Attendees will be asked to mask regardless of COVID vaccination status and stay home if they are ill.
