RE: Experimenting with Organic Pesticides - Garlic/Castile Soap/Cayenne Pepper

in #gardening7 years ago

Garlic/onion is great, see above post, but the salt? I'd say go no-sodium. Not sure what that will do except make the soil quite saline.... Great for samphire, I guess. There is an argument to be made for borax if you have termite problems....

good for ants too. Some plants also require it as a nutrient.

Ah! interesting. Any particular one spring to mind?

Broccoli and other cruciferous vegetables, if your broccoli has hollow stems it needs boron which you can supply with borax.

Great information! Must sow some to try.

it's good for men too.

Are you now comparing men to broccoli? Hmmm, an acquired taste I suppose... good comparison.

it also helps men whose stems are hollow ;)

Yes, yes, got there before you. Glad to see you are versed in Taoism. (The jade stem.... (jade/broccoli: green).
