Gardening Thread - Show me your gardens!

I need to buy that setup too, damn things love eating on my blackberry bushes.

 

My first tomato is finally changing colors.

 

They are on ours too but roses get hit worse

 

Doing some transplanting in the berry patch today and stumbled upon what looks like strawberries, never planted any so they must be wild.

 

they are edible, just take too many to do anything

 

Jut buy a small bottle of NEEM oil , it only cost a few bugs, safe and organic. Add one table spoon of neem oil, and a few drops of liquid detergents in a gallon of water and spray on all of the leaves an any plants , you'll see the results next day. Make sure to do this process in a couple weeks down the row, or as often as need.

I had some neem oil but they just looked like i was just giving them a showeri didnt add the detergent though

Ill show you an up date on traps...here in a bit

 

I buy full strength neem oil and mix it myself in a sprayer jug, but it doesn't always work.

 

Operator error?

 

@TacoSR523
This is one trap, about 4" full of them..

 

sounds good. won't work %100, but way better than pesticides though.

 

wow, my garden is not so bad with insects, neem oil mixed with dish detergents works for me. I'll keep in mind for your setup if things get worse.

 

I think this trap draws them in from a long ways off. @lynyrd3 said put it away from your garden area.

 

Rocks work for squirrels too but a .22 is soo much easier and efficient. I'll stick with my liquid sevin spray.

 

I picked up some neem oil and a spray bottle too, figured it can't hurt to try to mix a little up and spray.

 

Couple days pickings.

 

and , this is my picking for the day!

The dish washing detergent is the magic ingredient. The detergent breaks the surface tension and allows the insect to become saturated with the oil, and/or water. When we have aphids we use water and dish detergent in a spray bottle to coat the aphids. It is highly effective. And when I am hand picking off Japanese beetles I carry a container of water with a small amount of dish detergent in it. The detergent breaks the surface tension and the beetles drop below the water line and drown instead of floating on top.

 

Nice!
