    Slug remedy…if Aaron will let you! Pour beer in a pie tin, place one in each greenhouse and in the garden where it’s more moist! They love beer and will pick it first over vegetables! Beautiful garden, mine is also growing like crazy!

    You can start garlic this fall with your garlic. I break apart the bulb, put pea rock in a cake pan. Add water to the top of pebbles, take each clove and put root down in water. It will grow roots to plant. About the 19th year of regrowing my own. Love purple garlic the best!

    Just a idea for you, in a pinch, that worked for me 2 years ago. Our shade cloth ripped and was unusable, but we really needed it. I took a old white sheet and hung it up in a way that the garden only got direct sun in the morning or in the evening depending on what side of the sheet it was on. This worked out great! The plants were established and really didn't want or need that much hot sun anymore. Looked a bit funny hanging there but I wasn't posing for a photo and just wanted the food it protected.

    What a beautiful productive garden! Such a difference from the last couple of years which shows your experience paying off. I think your careful soil maintenance has really paid off - must be so biodynamic and healthy now. I think your hydrangeas are suffering a bit in the sun and might need a spot that gets afternoon shade… Well done Jessica, I love your enthusiasm ❤

    Becky@acrehomestead has a video on it she adapted a ball canning recipe..love it. Daily.. for each plant pick any bugs ànd smash eggs put bugs in soapy vinager water not soapy water on plant. Bugs happen each year its different but the only way to get rid of them is be diligent daily n pick them off. Some people use tape around your hand to get eggs off leaves. My pests here are under ground eggs so I pick them ad they come out onto plants ans at harvest If I seeb larva in the soil I toss in soapy water

    I wash my plants with a solution of one teaspoon of castile soap in one gallon water and about 10 drops of peppermint oil. This solutions is good for spider mites; aphids etc. and won't harm beneficial. bugs . Make sure you soak the top and bottom of the leaves and blooms.

    Hi Jessica and sweet family! Your garden and flowers are just beautiful and every year it will just keep getting better.
    If you make homemade wine you can take the discard and put in a pan because slugs, earwigs and other pests love yeast. Just a natural way to rid your garden of pests.
    Good job on the spinach. Years ago a farmer I knew gave me winter spinach seeds and I could grow my spinach in the winter instead of during the hotter weather.
    My husband loved polk salad and I used spinach in the place of polk if I couldn’t pick any and he never knew the difference. Ole timers say polk was a blood purifier, I don’t know if it’s true, but that’s what I’ve always heard.
    Raisins were used for car buckles or boils and the old timers said it was a blood purifier as well. I know it’s true because I witnessed it working.
    You’re the grill master now, your meal looked so yummy and your bread too.
    I hope you and your family have a very blessed week!

    The peppers look like slugs. Slugs love the fabric pots. Also it’s so important to have really good airflow in the green house. I have to leave my doors and windows open in my greenhouse because the flowers where dropping from the humidity. I just got my first little basket of peppers after trying for 15 years and getting only a handful each year. This year I got peppers the end of June. Started early and uppotted. Peppers like to be hot and dry. Everything looks really beautiful. I can’t tell what the eggs are from the video but just keep smashing them 😂 your garden looks beautiful. Thank you for sharing 💚

It seems like what ever bug it is likes the humidity of the green house. I like peoples suggestion on lady bugs, but don't know if that will help either.

The advantage you do have as you can succession plant and I will bet quite a bit of your span. Spinach grows back so you can do another harvest.

    Stink bug and hornworms will lay eggs under leaves. May try BT spray. Ladybugs are good for bugs

    Bugs- soapy water with a few drops of tea tree oil- then a sprinkle of baby powder. Then a few bags of ladybugs!!

    Puedes usar las espinacas haciendo un potaje de cuaresma que lleva bacalao, garbanzos y espinacas con un sofrito de ajo y cebollas, un poco de pimentón dulce, sal y pimienta❤

    Hello Jessica. Last year my Celery was bitter. My Father told me to blanch/wrap it which I will be trying this year.

      Good idea. Microbes make food sweet, try adding compost tea or warm casting and microbe type things to add sweet to all the veggies. But certainly blanch and freeze

    I've never had any luck with hydrangeas in alaska. I'm not sure what eating your peppers, but that sucks. The only bugs I deal with in anchorage are slugs and Beatles. It could be those black Beatles.try some diatomaceous earth.
