NORTH CAROLINA VEGETABLE PLANTING GUIDES

The links herein contain vegetable planting guides for sequencing
planting in North Carolina. This sequence applies to commercial and
home garden vegetables.

Note that here in the east, our dates are two weeks earlier than the
printed dates in the Spring and two weeks later in the fall. This is
stated in the fine print on the planting guide, but you may miss that
fact if you don't read the whole document carefully.

FIRE ANT INFORMATION FOR QUEENSWOOD

South American Imported Fire Ants make mounds started by queens which
fly to the site then lose their wings. The mounds they make are the
color of the soil they are made in. They have a granular appearance.
They may have no holes or several or many holes. They never have one
hole in the center of the mound the way many native ant mounds do.

If you stand around outdoors, be careful to look down at your feet
before you stop for long !
Fire Ants are spreading here faster than public awareness.

See "Photo Album" on this website for pictures of fire ant mounds and what to look for..
