May 02 Will Bark Mulch Burn my Plants?Gardening question of the day....will bark mulch burn my plants?
Yes, so be very careful when adding bark mulch to your garden. Especially around plants with new growth. If you just throw bark mulch all over your garden, chances are it will burn, and likely kill, your plants. An easy solution would be to drop piles of bark mulch into bare spots in your garden. Then carefully, with garden gloves on, and a handy rake, strategically move the mulch around your plants keeping about a 1/2 inch away from the base of plants.
To keep weeds under control before mulching, hand weed your garden the best you can. Then use a granular weed and feed product all over your garden beds. On top of that, add your mulch as mentioned above. Following this process will keep your garden fairly weed free throughout the growing season. You should have minimal weed maintenance if you follow these steps. Good luck and happy gardening! April 21 Last Day Offer! Free Votive Offer ends on April 22, 2009

Spring Cleaning Tips for the Kitchen
The kitchen can be the hardest to clean because of grease, food bacteria, and burnt-on messes in the oven and on your stove top. With a few basic cleaning products you can get your kitchen clean and sanitized.
Start with a good dish soap that has a grease-cutting agent and is also anti-bacterial. Wiping down counter tops, stove tops, and refrigerator doors every day after doing the dishes will help with grease build up and bacteria.
Clean stove top and oven spills as soon as they happen to lessen the time it will take to clean them up. To prevent spills in the oven, purchase an aluminum oven sheet from the grocery store in the same aisle where other foil pans are found. Buy two so you always have one on hand. Each one last up to 6 months of regular use. Place the aluminum oven sheet on the shelf below the dish you are baking. DO NOT put the oven sheet on the bottom of your oven because it will prevent baking. Replace with a new one as needed.
If a spill does occur on the stove top or oven and you did not have time to clean it up, place a moist cloth over the spill for at least 20 minutes to loosen it up. Then take baking soda and sprinkle liberally onto a wet kitchen wash cloth. With the wet cloth and baking soda, scrub to remove the spill. Wipe the clean surface with warm, soapy water to get off baking soda residue. Your surface will be clean and shiney. Baking soda is a must have in the kitchen to keep your surfaces, stove top grates, and inside the microwave clean. Use it for any stain or stuck on mess. It works quickly and easily and will not scratch surfaces. Salt is not a good abrasive because it breaks down too quickly
