Accordion Shade Net, 10'
This knitted polyethylene netting lets air and moisture through, yet provides 50% shading to shield your plants from too much sun and heat. Great for shading summer greens, and for protecting tender seedlings from transplant shock. Cuts easily, will not fray, and lasts for years. This easy-to-install shade net has galvanized support hoops sewn right into the fabric every 18", so it expands like an accordion and sets up in seconds. It protects lettuce, spinach or broccoli from summer heat, and you can also lay the end hoops down to keep out pests. Provides 50% shade protection. Allows excellent air circulation. Fold end hoops down to keep birds out.

Corn earworms are ugly caterpillars that start chewing on corn stalks as soon as they pop out of the ground.  You can minimize the damage these bugs wreak by sprinkling ground lime on corn ears once the silk appears.
Plant strawberries by digging a V-shaped hole about 8 inches deep.  Spread the roots out, place the roots against the side of the hole, then push soil against the roots.  As the plant sends out runner, trim all but the best six runners for an abundant crop.
