It is now time to start preparing for the fall weather. It is the most important time of the year for cool season grasses. This is because 3/4 of the entire year’s nitrogen is taken on in the fall.
The “fall season” as far as grass is concerned begins when temps are mostly consistently in the 70’s to 80’s. However, you can start now preparing the soil and roots.
Pick up some Bountiful Harvest or Turf Formula and begin using it to promote rapid and extensive root growth.
Not only that, but it also increases beneficial microbes by the hundreds of billions that help keep diseases at bay as well as increasing organic matter, nutrients, while building better soil.
Don’t delay, start the process now.
Unsolicited Customer Testimony from a Phone Call Asking About Using Turf Formula in Conjunction with Another Product:
“I have been using the Turf Formula since May (2017). Russ, my lawn is phenomenal! It has never looked this good. It is thick, dark green and looks amazing. I now have grass growing where I could never grow grass before and it looks incredible!” William K., New Jersey |

If you ever wanted to expand your horizons and live in the moment, kayak fishing for Redfish may be your answer. Whether you are new to kayaking or an old pro, Redfish is a logical choice.
Redfish hunt for crabs and baitfish in shallow water, often just 6″ to 18″ deep. You paddle the kayak close to shore over weed beds and spend lots of time casting along the edges of the salt grass and in the channels that snake through the grass.
If you are new to kayaking or have a fear of the water, you need to try shallow water redfish fishing. I am serious when I tell you that redfish, especially in spring and summer, spend much of their time feeding in such shallow water that their tails stick up in the air. Experienced fishermen know this and look for the signs of feeding redfish.
Using topwater lures, kayak fishing for redfish can be one of the most enjoyable and memorable experiences you can have.
Redfish are powerful fish. Once hooked they takeoff with bursts of speed that is nothing short of thrilling. These powerhouses can reach weights of over 40 lbs, but in the shallows, 5 to 10 lbs is often the max.
On this trip we hired Ryan Ford, out of Rockport, Texas. (In the photo with the straw hat) Ryan has lived much of his life there and knows the fish and their habits well.
Ryan got us on top of fish and we had the time of our lives.
If you are new to kayaking and are worried about kayaking in salt water, do not let it concern you. Hire a guide who knows the area and can take you to the best spots.
Our family is experienced at kayaking but not at redfish fishing. We highly recommend you contact Ryan. He was never more than a few feet away and was ready in an instant to assist anyone that required it.
Contact Ryan at Rockport Kayak Fishing Adventrues. You will be glad you did.
(Hammerhead Kayak Supply is our second business and is our favorite hobby. Kayaking is a great family activity and can become a serious sport for those who choose it. Please check out our website at Hammerhead Kayak Supply)
Do you know your palms?
Can you identify which species of creeping ivy is covering that rock?
What tropical flower is that?
It can be hard to tell plants that grow in the tropics, apart. With the long growing seasons, superb adaptations and the resilience of many our local fauna, even seasoned property owners can struggle identifying growing things.
With the free PlantNet Plant Identification app, you can simply take a picture and ask the app to identify the plant. It’s a handy and helpful tool!

Maui is paradise. A tropical breeze, soft waves lapping the shore and sunshine everywhere …most of the time.
Every so often, nature throws us a curve ball and days of high winds and wet weather create some pretty big issues for property owners.
While we can’t predict the weather, we can do some maintenance that will help keep weather damage from being bigger than it needs to be.
- Keep drainage areas clean and clear of debris.
- Carefully watch tree growth and trim over hanging branches
- Keep lawn areas clean and clear a debris that could wash into drainage areas, or be blown against windows and cars.
After a storm, take a look around and assess any damage but also look for potential problems. Ponding, debris piles, broken branches and erosion can all affect future property maintenance.
