Dahlia Update🌼 + A Bit of Pest Control 🪲

In today's video, we update you on our dahlias in grow bags (courtesy of ‪@SmartPots‬ ) along with some dahlia pest control. Yay! We are soo excited to be able to grow out dahlias this way. 😉 Watch as we walk through our dahlia growing area to talk about how we have rearranged them for better growing space and different plant sizes right now. Also, we have a few pests to either control or prevent, mainly aphids and slugs. See what we use and how we go about controlling them. Of course, please leave your comments or questions below, and thank you for watching our video!
