    Question about excessive rain and survival

    Indeed I do; Bridgeport, McMenamins, and Rogue Ales were my favorites. I miss stouts and IPA's the most. :beer: Humidity; unrelenting humidity, combined with soil wetness damages the roots beyond healing, IMO.

    Good Feed for aubergines?

    Have you considered google? Rarely do I not find the information I'm looking for. I don't know and judging by the lack of response; neither does anyone else. Good luck and please post your information.

    Question about excessive rain and survival

    Question about excessive rain and survival

    Last rainy season here in Thailand devastated my potted plants; and a good deal of the country. My "in the ground" plants survived. This year I'll build a frame and cover with plastic to keep the rain off the plants in pots.

    Spiders, good or bad guys?

    I find this a disturbing statement. IME, spider-mites can decimate a plant quite quickly if left unchecked. It's very difficult to "over react" when a simple high pressure spray of water (from a hand spayer) will kill them. They're a very soft bodied mite so water works well. If it's a recurring...

    disaster at home :(

    Geez Srin, bummer! Sorry to see that. Does your family know how to care for the plants? The evidence would indicate no. Maybe time for some lessons, no? Cheers and good luck. :)

    raised-bed Steralizing raised beds?

    You might try some Chitosan (google it); it's organic and a product of crab and shrimp shells. I've been using it for about a month now and so far so good. It's specifically for bad bacteria and nematodes and supposed to stimulate the good bacterias, etc. Can't hurt, Cheers.
