I buy it at the garden store. It is expensive and stinks like you cannot believe when you first spray it but they do leave my plants alone. I spray it as they start to sprout and then about once a month - 6 weeks through the Spring and Summer.The Buntenshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15621963894614154802noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6551221718418406610.post-58449306068352491772009-03-22T16:05:00.000-04:002009-03-22T16:05:00.000-04:00I have no green thumb..........it's very sad.

We have a good amount of red clay in our soil so we spend a lot of time amending the soil to so the roots can move. <BR/><BR/>We bring in a load of compost type soil and just mix it in with the natural soil. It's a great start.The Buntenshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15621963894614154802noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6551221718418406610.post-91571183510129227322009-03-21T14:34:00.000-04:002009-03-21T14:34:00.000-04:00I am not much of a vegetable gardener because I do...I am not much of a vegetable gardener because I don't get a full day of sun anywhere in my yard. <BR/><BR/>I have planted tomatoes in big pots and they did okay.<BR/><BR/>I just know that vegetables need lots of light - almost a full day and a good amount of natural compost/manure. <BR/><BR/>I am going to try to start cherry tomatoes from seeds this year and see how that goes.The Buntenshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15621963894614154802noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6551221718418406610.post-1162797294819843532009-03-21T13:22:00.000-04:002009-03-21T13:22:00.000-04:00Last year I planted 2 tomato plants and 2 squash p...Last year I planted 2 tomato plants and 2 squash plants--they did okay, but we're in a new house and the soil isn't that great.
