Re: Why treat for grubs??
I beleive it goes along with the crop rotation thing, farmers try not to grow mellon crops in the same area the next year because of bugs or disease from that plant that are in the soil for the next year, but for those of us that only have one plot and dont have the luxery of rotating to a different site we need to take different action..... can any one who knows about this more comment on this.. Thanks
