BUGS! It's that time of year again. After some much needed rain, the veggies have started a growth spurt finally but i know this will lead to aphids, whiteflies, june bugs, etc. eventually. Looks like it is about time to stock up on Neem oil and BT since i try to be as organic as possible, depending on your definition of "organic".
Potted-up some more tomato plants last night, noticed they had some purple on the underside of the leaves and some hue in the stems...phosphorus deficiency, so i will be taking care of that this weekend too.
Second round of peas are up, onions are finally looking better but the pepper plants haven't done much due to the cooler temps...that's ok w/ me though. Burn bans are finally lifted so i will be burning some garden debris from last year tonight and prepping the next areas for squash, eggplant and okra.
Last but not least, thoughts go out to all those that have been affected recently by the storms...from Oklahoma to East coast and especially to Alabama, most recently.
