    The thread of Creepy Crawlies

    Some kind of tiny grasshopper. These are all over the place at the moment.]       Pretty sure this is an Asian Tiger mosquito. This year the mosquitoes are brutal thanks to the nonstop rain.

    That looks like broadmites to me. The downward hooking, squiggly vein & mutated looking foliage is a good sign of mites.   Squiggly vein:     Downward hooking mutated looking new growth:

    Abracazebra Destroyed

    Sounds like hornworms to me, they can strip a plant bare pretty quickly.   Easiest way to find the hornworms on your plant is to use a UV flashlight or blacklight at night. Hornworms dont glow like scorpions but they do stand out against tomato foliage under UV light. I originally bought my UV...

    Biquinho / Chupetinho

    I'm growing Chupetinho peppers from Cross Country Nurseries this year and really looking forward to them. My plant is pretty small but absolutely loading up with pods at the moment. The first few definitely have that teardrop shape:       On CCN's website they are listed as "medium"...

    pests Aphids!!! Don't go away even after spraying

    I've never had much luck with neem or safer soap for aphids. At most it knocks them down a bit but never gets rid of them. Azamax kills them dead. It is derived from neem but significantly more effective than neem oil.

      I had to put my hand there cause they wanted to hide behind the stem. They are pretty shy little things. I've got squishing them down to an art though, have to fake them out with the fingers then mash them with the thumb since they like to run circles around the stems.    I'm pretty sure they...

    vendor Recommendations for live plant vendor

    +1 for CCN. They have great plants & really good packaging so the plants arrive looking pristine. A bit pricey but can't beat the quality.

    Not for my raised bed. I don't have access to power there so I can't use my water wand pump system. Still got some for my container plants but this time they're in pretty hot soil so won't need feeding for a bit. Raised bed it's just cow manure compost, turkey manure compost, and a bit of...

    TXCG 2016

    Got three 2 cu. ft bags of Texas Native hardwood mulch and covered both plots. Of course I got a little over halfway done and a storm blew in out of nowhere and I got soaked. And then the second I got done it stopped raining. Also somehow managed to knock a decent size branch off one of my...

    Is CCNs Wild Brazil a Cumari do Para?

    The one CCN actually calls Cumari isn't Cumari do Para either http://www.chileplants.com/search.aspx?ProductCode=CHICUM   They are absolutely delicious little pods though. At first I was disappointed because I meant to get Cumari do Para but they turned out to be one of my new favorites. I'm...

    Only 30 years lol. These past two years have been something else as far as rain goes. Blowing out our avg rainfall by almost 2x. We always get some badass thunderstorms but it doesn't normally rain every single damn day for a month.
