What! Does this work? Those fuckers ruin my summer ever year… I’ve tried kaolin clay this year and used Beit alpha cucumbers and so far haven’t seen any… But if this works I’m going out to get fifty marigolds.

Your marigolds look wonderful! Mind sharing care tips? Did you get starter plants or grow from seeds?

I did the marigold thing as well this year. Probably bought the same 6 packs you did lol. Haven’t had any real issues with pests this year so far, now if I can make sure I find all the cucumbers that are hiding so they don’t overripen I’ll be doing good lol.

Pests absolutely decimated my Marigolds this year, but I think their sacrifice saved everything else.
