Makes great noodles too!
You can make an insecticide from spicy peppers onions, ginger and garlic boiled in water to extract the oils. Chop and smash the veggies good first to help release the juices. Add them to a pot and bring to a boil then simmer for half an hour. Careful it makes your house smell delicious.
Strain, cool and add to a spray bottle. The oils and capsicum will burn all soft shell insects. Add a drop of dish soap for best results the surfactants help hold it to the bugs but it isn't necessary. Spray plants liberally a couple of times a day making sure to get in the branch crooks and under leaves as well as the soil surface.
It works especially well for aphids and spider mites but be assured it will kill good bugs too. Insecticide is insecticide regardless of what it is made of.
Also Canadian. I bet you can extend seasons depending on what you are trying to grow. A small cold frame would be beneficial for greens, brassicas and other cold weather crops. We grow these year round. When we were in the city I made some from some old pallets and a window I picked up in alleyway junk piles.
Just having that presence and national media time could vault a proper leader and party forward with the savings from staffing and offices near but not on the hill and could be very beneficial for the right small party. Getting there is the hard part. Grasping it and making it work, hasn't happened yet.
Hopefully it's in the American regime and we never see him again. Opps...was that out loud
That's why you marry a gardener! Our place is insane. Hahaha
Bland food and all that. No one who likes flavor dislikes the smell of garlic.
