Overwintering plants are doing well. I lost the Jamaican Red Chile, I was having difficulty with aphids, and the frequent spraying got to it. I was able to solve that issue with a combination of azamax via root drench, and increasing the humidity in my home. No more aphids and plants are...

I increased the humidity in my home to 45-50% and my aphid problems went away entirely. Forced hot air makes my home super dry... I was struggling with a major infestation on my overwinters, neem, pyrethins, and azamax were holding them back, but they kept coming back with a vengeance. I...

"Certified organic" is a way to drive up costs and make food even more out of reach for the poor.

Epsom salts definitely work, you just have to be careful with them because calcum and Magnesium have an antagonistic relationship and it's easy to screw up the balance and throw things off.

The immunocompromised have assholes like you to worry about. It's sad, really.

I mean, clearly you don't understand herd immunity, amd/or you don't give a shit. Either way...

And you can be defiant as you want, and call me self righteous as much as you want, it doesn't stop you from being wrong. You're putting other people's lives at risk, and you should feel like a shit head for doing so.

Sometimes stupid just needo to be called out as it is. It's clear he/she isn't changing their mind anyway.

Immunocompromised folks CANT get vaccinated asshole.

Putting others lives at risk by not vaccinating, but I'm the self righteous one... right. I really think the mods should just close this garbage thread.

Ubless you have a legitimate medical exemption, you should be vaccinated. End of story.

Way to put the immunocompromised at risk. Good for you. Polio was not the disease they made it out to be? Wow.

Yeah, you know, let's bring back polio. That'd be great. I'm not sure why vaccines are even a.topic of discussion here though, honestly.

If you're using a good balanced fertilizer with calcium and Magnesium in it, Epsom salts shouldn't be needed.

Saying organic is better for the environment and wildlife is a broad generalization, and isn't rearly true. Many of the pesticides and herbicides that are used in organic practices can be pretty damaging to the environment and animals and they often have to get applied in larger doses and...

I feed her meal worms and crickets from my frog terrarium so she's well fed. No sign of any aphids, gnats, etc... yet. Hopefully the mantis will help head off any pests before they become a problem.

A couple quick updates, garden is growing well so far. The Jamaican Red Chile is a bit behind the rest, but it seems to be catching up. I've been pinching off new growth selectively, and top dressed the containers with some bark. I also added a pepper protecting friend to the garden. Thanks...

Thanks Paul, I don't know if I'll get any pods from them, but so far they are putting on new growth pretty quickly, so they seem happy.
