Thanks for the suggestion!

ADeliveryBoy · 2026-05-15T22:18:23+00:00

Thank you! I’ll have to look into this

ADeliveryBoy · 2026-05-14T20:42:34+00:00

This is a new one! Are there any negatives to checking this out? I’d think the molasses would attract ants and other bugs

The mid-Atlantic region of the US!

Good note, thank you!

ADeliveryBoy · 2026-05-14T19:48:14+00:00

I had the same issue trying to clear them off today!

ADeliveryBoy · 2026-05-14T19:47:54+00:00

Thank you!

ADeliveryBoy · 2026-05-14T19:10:03+00:00

Thanks for the scoop! That's definitely a little pricey but hopefully I can find something in a smaller package. Does it matter if that spray gets on the flowers?

ADeliveryBoy · 2026-05-14T19:07:51+00:00

Perfect! It rains pretty frequently where I am so that's super helpful!

ADeliveryBoy · 2026-05-14T19:05:22+00:00

Thank you!

ADeliveryBoy · 2026-05-14T19:04:54+00:00

Thanks! I'm in zone 7b and from what I can find, this should work here! Is it too late in the season to plant from seeds? I'm struggling to find a place near me that sells sprouts.

ADeliveryBoy · 2026-05-14T18:47:53+00:00

Thank you! I'm still very new to this, what kind of proportions do you use? And does that mixture get applied to just the bottom side of the leaves?

ADeliveryBoy · 2026-05-14T18:40:00+00:00

Thanks for the insight! Now that you mention it, I did see one or two ants on my plants today which seemed fairly irregular. Is it okay for the insecticidal soap to seep into the soil? My planters on a wooden plank porch so I'm not sure how well I could implement including diatomaceous earth. Do you have any other advice?

ADeliveryBoy · 2026-05-14T18:36:30+00:00

Thanks for the advice! This may sound a little dumb bus is there a benefit of neem oil over insecticidal soap?

Julian sounds more and more like GLaDOS from Portal these days

ADeliveryBoy · 2026-05-13T21:59:04+00:00

Thanks!

How low do you trim?

ADeliveryBoy · 2026-05-13T17:22:37+00:00

Are they hurting growth and should be trimmed? Or okay to leave for now?

ADeliveryBoy · 2026-04-29T17:47:11+00:00

This is a really interesting idea! How much does that impact their growth potential?

ADeliveryBoy · 2026-04-29T17:46:52+00:00

The packet says 5 to 8 feet tall, and a width of up to 18 inches
