From: Dan Ventola Date: 8/15/18 LONG RANGE WINTER FORECAST: 2018-2019 Headline: Another snowy winter coming up. If you recall, last summer, we had a very accurate long range winter forecast. We work with various experts on long range forecasting and combine those forecasts with our own in-house meteorologists and come up with the best case forecast (best case meaning best case accuracy). The following is our first long range winter forecast for the upcoming winter. We will (like last year), provide additional long range forecasts, the next one in October (October 1) and the one after that will be December1. ________________________________________________________________ LONG RANGE WINTER WEATHER FORECAST: DECEMBER 1, 2018 TO MARCH 31, 2019. Overall outlook for the period from December 1, 2018 to March 31, 2019 is for above normal snowfall by 30% to 50% and temperatures near normal, with periods of excessive cold. Plan accordingly. Example: if you average annual snowfall is 30” for the winter, we are forecasting up to 40” to 50” of total snow for the winter or contact our company for more details. However, the above forecast is pretty much explanatory. The bottom line is, we will have a snowier winter than normal, perhaps from start to end with no break in-between. Please note: we realize this is quite generalized.. however, we proceed with our future long range winter forecasts, we will attempt to pinpoint which months (if possible) with more definitive “numbers” in our October and December updates. We will update this long range winter forecast on October 1 with our update then on December 1 for the final winter forecast update. Recall last summer when we sent you our long range winter forecast. It was accurate and on spot with the numbers. Thank you. #snow #canetesnow #snowfall #winterweather #canete 3 years ago 1 Permalink Share We make it possible to enjoy your outdoor space beyond your wildest dreams! #canete 3 years ago Permalink Share Visit Our Glorious Garden Center in New Jersey!

If not, you could be just one “slip and fall” away from possible bankruptcy. Join us as Tom Canete, NJLCA past President and CEO of Canete Snow and Ice Management presents a one-day seminar about how to properly manage snow and ice events, before, during and after they occur. From contracts to liability, to snow equipment, technology and training, Tom will cover every aspect of the industry. When it comes to managing snow and ice, you have a very limited window to handle each event, adding even more stress to what Tom refers to as, “organized chaos”. Tom will discuss: Basic risk management practices that every snow contractor must perform. Avoiding lawsuits - what attorneys are looking at when they are suing you. Salt Brine - the learning curve and Canete’s first season using it. How to get organized in the “off-season” to prepare for winter. Contracts - ignorance is no excuse. Technology - drones, remote control equipment and more! His trip to Alaska and what he learned there. Pre-season preparations for the entire company. The future of the snow industry as projected, 5-10 or 20 years from now. Equipment that can help make up for the lack of available labor. Pre-season and mid-season training.

REGISTER NOW! 3 years ago Permalink Share This year’s Arbor Day is on April 28th, celebrating the planting and caring for trees. It is a popular time for homeowners to add new trees to their landscapes. The right tree will provide decades of fall color, shade and a home for insects, birds and other creatures. Selecting the right tree for the right location is the first thing to consider before starting this project. How much space will the mature tree need? Are there overhead wires to consider when selecting the right spot? Do you want it to shade an area or part of the house, or are you intending to plant a vegetable garden nearby (which requires a lot of sun)? Do you prefer a spring blooming tree or one which provides great fall color? When selecting the right tree for your property, make sure you do your research! After your purchase and to assure your tree is happy and thrives in its new location, the initial planting is the most important step. Here are some planting guidelines to help you along: Measure the height and diameter of the root ball. You may need to lift the tree from the container in order to do so. Dig the hole only as deep as the height of the root ball and make the hole twice as wide as the diameter of the root ball or root spread. Remove any large rocks from the preserved soil and loosen up any clay soil. Place the tree in the center of the hole so that the root flare (the base of the tree trunk where the roots begin to flare-out), will be visible above grade. See diagram. Backfill with preserved soil from the planting hole, using water to settle the soil around the root ball making sure there are no large air pockets in the planting hole. Do not tamper down the soil with your feet. Mulch the planting area with 2 to 4 inches of an organic, composted mulch such as shredded bark or wood chips. Do not spread the mulch against the trunk but leave an un-mulched circle around it. (No volcano mulch!!!) If the tree has any damaged, dead or diseased branches, prune out those branches right after planting. Stake the trunk of the tree only if there is a real potential for wind damage. Always be sure to remove the guy wires when the staking is no longer needed or the tree could be injured or even killed from girdling by the wire or rope. Continue to monitor the tree for damaged branches and prune when necessary but never remove more than 25 percent of total foliage in one year. During its first few years in your garden, additional watering may be needed whenever the soil feels dry. Fertilizing is not recommended at the time of planting but may be needed in later years. #arbor day #tree planting #nj tree care #nj tree planting #landscaping with trees #landscape planning #planting tips #garden tips #arbor care #landscaping #gardening #spring #new jersey #nj 4 years ago Permalink Share Previous Next As soon as the last snow has melted, the time is right for spring clean up of the garden. As you rake out the wet leaves, cut back last year’s perennial foliage and trim ornamental grasses, be careful not to walk on your wet and spongy lawn, if possible. The heaving of soil during freezing and thawing is a natural way the lawn recovers from soil compaction. Too much foot traffic on the grass at this time of year may contribute to soil compaction and impede healthy lawn growth. One method to combat this soil compaction is through lawn aeration. This service will remove small plugs of grass and soil which are deposited back onto the lawn. When these ‘plugs’ break down they become a good medium for new grass seed to germinate. Therefore, over-seeding is often done simultaneously. To make sure your lawn grows lush and thick, it is also important to fertilize in spring when the grasses need constant access to nutrients during this rapid growth period. Springtime is not only the time to treat lawns with pre-emergents to combat weeds but also to make sure lawn pests and diseases are detected early and treated. At Canete we are happy to provide you with a free quote for spring clean up or lawn maintenance and remind you that our designers are ready to help you plan any landscape beautification. Happy spring! #spring #canete #canete landscaping #landscaping #new jersey #nature #lawn care #residential #garden #nj 4 years ago 1 Permalink Share Although a few more snow storms may be forecasted this winter, it is not too early to start planning for your spring garden improvements. Proper planning with a qualified professional will achieve the most important goals of a landscape project; beauty and function. Maybe you finally decide to build that patio you’ve been dreaming about for al fresco dining, or have plans to make the backyard your personal oasis by installing a pool or spa? The time is now to get your ideas on paper and get your installation quotes in for review. Also consider it may take three months from the initial meeting to the finished project. Time is needed to finalize plans, approve building permits, and install a landscape which looks and functions beautifully for years to come. Grading, drainage, local regulations, long-term maintenance and budget are all things to discuss with the designer during the initial meeting. At Canete, we are offering a free design plan during the month of February. From concept to installation of walkways, lawns, plantings, lighting, irrigation and all outdoor features, we are available to guide you. To schedule your appointment with one of our landscape designers please call 973-616-5296. We look forward to discussing your project and taking the first step to creating your dream landscape. #new jersey #landscape #landscaping #nj #dream garden #garden 4 years ago Permalink Share Holiday Decor The holiday season has arrived and the Canete Garden Center is now stocked with wreaths, grave blankets, garlands, centerpieces, poinsettia and many other holiday decorations.

By investing some time into your garden you can create tranquil sitting areas, grow your own food and enhance the overall beauty of your home. It’s not too late to get started! Mid to late spring is ideal for planting because it isn’t too hot and spring rains will keep your plants moist without a lot of extra watering. The official last frost date for northern New Jersey is mid-May, so do watch those tropical annuals and protect them if night-time temperatures are forecasted to drop below 40 degrees. Most hardy plants and trees will not be harmed by frost temperatures despite damage of the blooms on ornamental early flowering trees. Planting flowering shrubs is a good way to give your landscape structure and color. Shrubs are woody plants that come in all sizes. Some low maintenance flowering shrubs include: Forsythia, Spirea, Viburnum and Oak-Leaf Hydrangea. Perennials are plants that die back to the ground before winter but grow back in spring, year after year. They’re a wonderful addition to any garden as they provide color and excitement to the garden. Some herbs are also perennials i.e. Thyme, Mint and Lavender. Before selecting which perennials or shrubs you’d like to plant remember to check a plant hardiness zone map to make sure the plants can survive winter in your area. Most of New Jersey falls into zone 6a to 7b. The most important task to provide your plants a long-lasting home is preparing the planting hole. Remember that the planting hole should be dug at least twice as wide as the planting pot it was purchased in and as deep as the root ball. Amending the returning soil with compost after placing the plant in the hole is always recommended. And do not forget to water your plant in well during this initial planting. Enjoy the garden!
