My tomato plants just get killed rotten with a bout of those tiny mites freshly before they be ready to produce. I have one green pepper plant looking worthy but am back to the origin for snow peas and cucumbers. I need to know who to murder mites or how not to overwater, etc
Answers: Overwatering. This is a serious problem for tomatoes, they hate it. I use the finger tryout. In the morning I check my tomatoes (in large pots on the front and posterior balcony). I stick my pointer finger in the soil up to the first common. If the tip of my finger meets dry soil I dampen.
Spider Mites?
o Spider Mites
"Combine 1/2 cup buttermilk, 4 cups wheat flour and 5 gallons water and apply matching as the aphid solution. This suffocates spider mites and other mites."
o Aphids
"To keep aphids and other pests stale your plants just finely chop1 onion and 2 milieu cloves of garlic. Put ingredients into a blender with 2 cups of hose and blend on high. Strain out pulp. Pour juice into spray bottle. Spray a fine mist on plants, making sure to coat both tops and bottoms of leaves."
o Insects
"This is a recipe for an organic insect repellant that works pretty okay with most insects.
¡è 3 hot green pepper (canned or fresh)
¡è 2 or 3 cloves garlic
¡è 3/4 tsp liquid soap (cheap dish soap (no additives) works)
¡è 1/2 tsp veggie grease
¡è 3 cups water
Heat hose, add the hot pepper and garlic. Whir in a blender. Strain out pulp. Let fluid cool. Add the liquid soap and grease. Pour liquid into spray bottle. Spray a fine mist on plants, making sure to coat both tops and bottoms of leaves."
Spray near homemade insecticides (garlic and pepper). Tomato needs lots of wet. To test the soil, stick your finger into it. Feel dripping, no watering.
