Good for you Peg! Don't
forget to re-check for any worms you missed in a few days...it took 2 x's to
handpick my worms. You will know if you have any new worms if you look for
their * worm poopie*....little dk brown round droppings.....if you don't see
any.....you got them all!
I wanted to mention also that the
Bt I use is in powder form, made by Safers and it lasts for 10 days (unless you
get rain, or *forget* and wash it off by watering...oops.
In the Shelter of His
Wings,
Fern <*((><
Therefore do not lose
heart. Though outwardly we are wasting away, yet inwardly we are being
renewed day by day. For our light and momentary troubles are achieving for
us an eternal glory that far outweighs them all. 2 Cor.
4:16-17

After all of the discussion of BT...being the "striving to be natural gardener",I went out with a water bottle, cotton pads, and proceeded to wipe down and clean all of the leaves on my broccoli. I found 2 worms, and tons of eggs at different stages of development.
It only took me a few minutes, and I felt pretty good about doing it. If it fails, I will know that next year, I will have use BT.
Things are kind of slow out in the garden right now anyway, so I figured I could spend the time, and see how it works.
Peg
