Burnt everything
Hello everyone
Well I think I am done growing for competition this year. I
have had a white fly and worm problem this season like no other and I
have sprayed seven with no results then systemic and nothing. So last
night I mixed a heavy dose of malathion 3 oz. to a quart bottle sprayed
and sprayed everything today I went out and all the leafs are brown and
dry and dying fast. I am sure this has stressed the plants to no end and
we have 5 day of 100 degrees or better coming. If they live through that
I am sure I will not be able to get them healthy enough before the next
heat wave to doing anything great so I think I am growing for Halloween
I started 4 more seeds this morning to replace what ever dies. The good
news is I don't have any bugs today
