It's our first year gardening in Georgia (zone7b) and it's been... interesting. So far this year, I've battled (and in many cases, lost):
squash vine borer
red aphids
cabbage worms
flea beetles
mexican bean beetle
tobacco hornworm
powdery mildew
But you know what, why NOT colorado potato beetle Japanese beetle? Let's just have a full-on orgy in my garden, shall we? Bastards. Major learning experience for next year and kind of feeling sorry for myself at the moment. BUT I'm going to get started on planning the fall garden and now I know to plant early varieties and pre-treat instead of waiting for pests to show up.
Thanks for reading! Want to see more?
