cabbage and Lantana
our cabbage is gorgeous - I am fighting the caterpillars for ownership!Lantanas are still doing wonderfully!
They're heeeeeeeerrrrrr!!
the day I have been dreading since beginning my garden, the day the caterpillars show up!
they are eating my broccoli leaves and my cabbage leaves. I don't really want to put pesticides on my edibles, and if I didn't try something less toxic quick, R would have had them covered in seven dust already. And that could still happen if my homemade insecticide doesn't work.
I have tons of cayenne peppers in the freezer left over from the garden last year, I never got around to making hot sauce. so I made a mixture of cayenne - garlic- veg oil - and soap and water - I sprayed my veggies real good tonight, so tomorrow will tell if it is gonna be a seven dust alternative.
