🍉Here’s your melon bodyguard line-up ⤵️ But first 🍉Here’s your melon bodyguard line-up ⤵️ But first know that the main pests for melons are aphids & cucumber beetles. 🌱Alyssum controls aphids by bringing in the good bugs like lacewings & ladybugs who love a good aphid buffet. 🌱Catnip, dill, nasturtiums help deter aphids 🌱Radish, Nasturtiums, French Marigolds & Tansies deter cucumber beetles. 🌱Lavender, Borage, Oregano, French Marigolds help with bringing in the pollinators for watermelon. My goal for my melons is to alternate an herb and a flower. We want to attract the beneficials in with the flowers and repel the bad pests with the herbs (scent). ✅ If you’re done losing plants every season and ready to build a garden that actually defends itself, comment DEFEND and I’ll DM you the link. 💚🌱💚 #gardener #growyourownfood #organicgardener #organicgardening #gardeningforbeginners
I experiment so you don’t have to! I was testing I experiment so you don’t have to! I was testing 2 different things with my squash/zucchini plants this season: toilet paper rolls to deter squash vine borers from laying their eggs inside the stems of my plants & vertical growing using t-posts as my supports. Not even a week since I added my toilet paper rolls and they became a crazy breeding ground for squash bugs & cucumber beetles of all patterns. I removed the rolls immediately. Unalived everything I could catch and then doused the plants in Neem oil. I literally just direct sowed my companions on Saturday (3 days ago) so I have nothing naturally defending them at the moment. Eek. 😱 So what say you?? I have time to test some other methods to prevent against the squash vine borer. What should I try? Foil? Something sticky??
