Hmmm, may have to give that a try. I did some garlic and water one year and I think they just made Italian food with the tomatoes they ate...

Do you just put that and a spay bottle and let'em have it? With the garlic it kind of clogged the nozzle.

Mix it all together in a sprayer. Spray in the early morning top and bottom of leaves or late evening. This is so the plant does not get burned by the heat of the sun.

You can also use a milder soap like sun light. If necessary. Basically what ever is available.

Our Panhandle weather has finally allowed us to see a little progress in our garden. Wet weather combined with advancing age has really thrown us a curve :eek ! We are not able to continue gardening like we have for over 40 years. Finally got a feller to say he would pick peas on halves with us. We buy the seed, plant and cultivate, he picks and splits 50/50. Pretty good deal for folks that don't want to pay $10-$20 a hamper for fresh peas, people used to jump on such but now they're too busy playin' video games.
My red corn finally came up after the 15" of rain, it doesn't look good but it will have to do as we are still trying to get more seed.
The squash were replanted and are doing well, also the raised bed with 'maters and peppers look good. Have a 100' row of Market More cukes. I'll plant some peas in a day or so.
Most of the farms have finally got their cotton planted, a lot of them planted over a herbicide burn with no-till equipment. A lot of the fields still have wet spots that will not be planted this season. Also hope to be planting a small "L" shaped deer plot for my grandsons very shortly, been workin' on their new shootin' house we started back in April.
Here's a couple of pictures, lets see if we can revive FOHAF, been kinda' slow the last month or so.

Those maters look good! I've had some issues with fungus and bugs on mine. I sprayed with a good funguside and then a few days later with sven spray. I think I have it under control now. Time will tell I guess. I do have about 10 good looking tomatoes on there. Hopefully the flowers will develop the rest without dropping. Everything else is doing great. I harvested my first fruits this morning with 2 green peppers and 1 hot pepper. I would have had 3 green peppers by now but one of my grandkids picked one off when it was about the size of a big marble :>P

I've tried to upload some photos but it looks like the site won't let me for some reason. I'll put them up later if it gets fixed. It says it's downloading them but then the file is empty. Oh well, maybe I'll try taptalk...

I uploaded to Photobucket but it's not even showing the photos from that, just the link. Weird. I've done the photobucket thing on other sites over the years and haven't had any issues.

This is black beauty zucchini and egg plant. The zucchini isn't doing so good though. I may need to hit it with some fungicide because the flowers keep dropping of and the stems wilting. Any suggestions would be appreciated.

Here are my peppers in the top photo and tomatoes at the bottom. I didn't get a picture of the green onions because they aren't doing much. I'll probably get a few onions but I ain't holding my breath.

Well looks like my zucchini has the stem borers and powdery mildew.

I cut out the bad stems and treated with Sven and copper fungicide. I may just have to pull them out and scratch for the season.
