disease-pests APHIDS! AH!! Attack!!!!! FASTER PUSSYCAT! KILL! KILL! KILL!

The only aphids I've seen came in on the big Jalapeno plant I bought recently...they were hiding in the flowers.

It had like 4-5 of 'em but they got squished. Checked again today after it's been repotted and found two more, so they got mashed too.

Checked every inch of the plant again and washed it down. So, hopefully that's all. It's also been separated from the rest of the plants just in case.

It's sure a happy bugger now that's it's been put into an 8" pot w/ Promix instead of the 3" one they sold it with that was 1/2 full of bark. :)

I had a problem with aphids and tried the sprays but eventually started using something a bit more effective...like this...
Killem' all and let God sort 'em out.

Cheers, TB.


Love the video..the fact it's posted by a 13yo from China is a bit disconcerting though.. :neutral:
