Mr.Wertgew asked:
We planted some green beans and other vegetables in our garden and recently Japanese Beetles have been eating them. Is there a non-pesticidal way to keep them away?

One of Those Women asked:
my garden is organic, no sprays or pesticides have been used. And the brown looks like something has infested it, like its sucking inward.

juncogirl3 asked:
I have to leave my garden. I usually handpick the beetles. My asparagus has been ferned out for awhile but the beetles are all over. I am organic. Dont want to spray. Will these worms kill my next year crop. If I have to treat any suggestions? The worms will skeletonize the ferns if not picked..

Sinborgaga asked:
is sethoxydim an organic herbicide? It appears to have C-H bonds so this makes it organic? How to tell if it organic? The chemical symbol is C17H29NO3S. I want to make sure to use only organic chemicals on my garden. What about Malathion?

Jen G asked:
I bought a bag of Miracle Grow Organic Garden Soil and after I opened it, I realized it wasn’t for containers. I’ve already read a ton of posts that you need to mix something with it or else the soil will compact and hold too much water. What I’m wondering is, what do I mix and how much? I’ve read everything from saw dust to peat moss so what would work best for vegetables? And what ratio do I add it to the garden soil? Any help would be appreciated. Thanks!

inspirationalmeteor asked:
I live in an apartment complex in Texas and I’ve only been here for a month. So far I’ve had to terminate three wasps nests, and the last one was on one of my plants! I try to keep my garden organic but there’s nothing organic about a can of raid. Can anyone tell me why wasps are attracted to my porch and what I can do to keep them away? I’m not really a fan of the idea of playing exterminator every week.

Sammah asked:
I am having a serious problem keeping bugs from eating away at my small garden in my backyard. I have tried marigolds to keep them and the bunnies away, but nothing seems to be working. Is there anything I can do that will be organic? I don’t want to put pesticides and such on my plants, it sounds gross.
