Have Garden Questions?

Do you have home gardening questions?

The 10 most common problems in Napa County are shown on the Garden Pests page. If you don't find your answer there, you can call the UCCE Master Gardener hotline at 253-4221 or toll free from Upvalley and American Canyon at 877 279-3065 or you can email your problem to MasterGardeners@co.napa.ca.us


The following information is needed in order to diagnosis your plant problem:

  • Kind of plant if known, if not a detailed description
  • Approximate age of plant
  • A description of the problem
  • Environmental conditions, such as:
  • Drainage
  • Soil type -Clay? Raised bed?
  • Exposure to sun or shade
  • Irrigation - How often? How long? Automatic?
  • Chemicals used within 6 months.
  • Have the symptoms spread slowly? Suddenly? Just this week?

Please include your phone number in case we need more information. You will receive a response within one week.

 

Better yet, bring in a sample of the problem to the UC Cooperative Extension office at 1710 Soscol Avenue, Suite 4 in Napa. Master Gardeners are in the office 9:00 a.m. until 12:00 noon on Monday, Wednesday and Friday.
