this is my milkweed flower that i have been wating for but always destroyed by these caterpilars. CROWN FLOWER giant milkweed Calotropis gigantea

they are quite beautiful but they ate up my plant. i wanna see the flowers again. it has nice lilac coloured crown shaped flowers. :( wow ...sound so psychotic heheheehe...... :eek: . i just cut them into 2 :) :hell:

cut them into two ...... :hell:

hmm so far i don't see any wasp here.no predator for the caterpillars! these milkweeds are quite hardy plants they tend to come back fast but thats when the butterflies comes to lay eggs again!!.

i got rid of the caterpillars now but the milkweed plant looks bare now without any leafs! hmm because of the hairy ones and the colourful ones as some are poisionous!! the ones at my place even birds don't eat them.

another malaysian joined THP :) markt_10350 from penang. Mark Tan

yup just remove the red ones so that the plant can concentrate on the others :)

what do you think of nandos extra hot peri peri ?

Welcome to THP :) well there are officially 5 members from m'sia inculding you. one of them inactive and the other is a newbie that come once in a while. ME & Kiddc are the active members here.:)

Erwin, get the raw paste ,depends how you get it,a flat thin piece or a square block. Make you got a thin piece then roast it over fire till it harden and after that pound it to powder. Use it when you are frying your onions.

LOL hehehe How do i make moneyfrom those caterpillars!! Gourmet food. I think these are poisonous . That's a milkweed plant which I keep near my habanero plant. It got some nice flowers.

the more side branches the better as there will be more nodes which means more pods! So that's a good thing. :dance: As for the pictures, that's the only way but your can use various image sites to upload.

hmm did you go back to the nursery to ask what happen to their jalapenos seedlings? maybe they give you some new ones?

sorry GOrt but i think there are not pimientos de Padrón as the pod shape are different. :welcome: to the THP :) Yes I agree with BOb_b hehe Hey Pauly7 you got a chinese rather than a Jalapenos.. hehe more :onfire: :)) well they might have got the seedlings mixed up..

your white siling labuyo looks like a tabasco. same from the one from sabah.. :)

its better to plant them individually after they got their true leaves. at least when they outgrow their pots ,it won't be a hassle to separate them. :) :welcome: to the THP

:hell: i usually pick them up and throw them to the tarmac(road) hehehe. but those butterfiles /moth continuously produce eggs for new generation.!! don't wanna use anything nasty here in my garden.! kids around!.

i have tried spraying some bug off aerosol type spray. it killed them but it also burned the leaves. hmm i will try the molasses thing but won't it attract any ants? neem oil i have tried, they seems to be immune to it..:(

doing ok... just having these attacks and aphids! how are you, Jeff?

yes its war.!! they spread around my garden after finishing with that plant. i have been catching them and throwing them to the road.! :hell:
