August Gardening Tip



Cure onions, squash, pumpkins, potatoes, and other garden vegetables before storing. Spread on newspapers in a shady, well-ventilated area protected from rain, such as a porch. Store onions and potatoes in mesh bags or old, clean panty hose in a cool, dry location. Store squash and pumpkins at room temperature.
