Milky Spore Milky Spore Powder for Japanese Beetle Grub Control in Lawns & Gardens at Home Harvest Garden Supply can be used to treat your lawn that does work for the grubs its expensive..
They are such a pretty beetle emerald green like the jewel color but dam they sure can chow down on a garden.. And don't use the beetle traps!!!!! That just attracts swarms of them. I can't see nets working unless it was very fine netting.. |
You guys n gals sure arent building up my hopes of a garden here.. your supposed to reccomend some sort of magic pixy dust or somthin..
Well it looks as though it may be a rough summer ahead. I plan on devoting all of my grow room resources to my soon to be aeroponic strawberry bed.
Wanting to run both 600w lights on them and explode the growth.. how am I supposed to do this with a room full of matos and bells that are to scared to go out and play? ..lol.. damn the man. This sounds like a reason to buy/build a greenhouse..grrrr
