hi
i've a question and need some help please.  i rescued several of my pepper 
plants from the d#** hog- seemed like potting them and moving them to the 
front porch worked.  anyway- i'm having a problem with my flowers and a 
creeping crud and the pepper plants are next in line.  after all the effort 
and money invested in these plants to save them from a ground hog i do not 
want to lose them just as i begin to enjoy the harvest.
i've lost two begonias and yesterday notice that one of my gerbers is 
succumbing to something.  the leaves turn brown at the edges near the tips/ 
ends then the whole plant turns brown withers dries and dies.  the local 
nursery said it was mites so i broke down and sprayed.  it did not stop 
this.  i think there might be mites but they come after the plant weakens.
thanks
cheryl
ps tried the stuffed olives.  fantastic!  i had to use mirasol- it s all i 
had ripe last week.
