Answer to Question 1

Ten key points for insect and disease control in the vegetable garden are to:
 Dispose of crop residue
 Compost material so that it rots before the next season
 Rotate crops
 A 3-or 4-year crop rotation is most effective
 Plant treated seeds
 Purchase resistant varieties
 Purchase healthy plants
 Practice mixed plantings
 Use biological control agents
 Follow good cultural practices



Answer to Question 2

Phenology refers to the relationship between climate and the life cycle of plants. Plants
are responsive to degree days of temperature in starting growth, and most plants leaf
out or flower when freezing weather is past.
