BTW  forgot to mention,

Last year I fertlized my seedlings
with some cow manure tea.

In the first 8 weeks, I killed 4 aphids on 600 plants.

I used 3 pints of mixed tobacco tea on 120 plants,  Most of that was
actually used on JB's and hoppers
on weeds outside the garden.

Theroy here - They reproduce at about 50 per year,  Each dead one is 50 less
next year.

I had 1 hornworm last year, that I
plucked and stuffed in a used oil
bottle.

L.B.

When you reach out and touch nature, you will find that the rest
of the world is attached.
