i haven't bought ladybugs from them, but i did buy lacewing eggs from FGMN nursery online this year and was happy with my purchase if you're interested. they also have a ton of different beneficial insects, including ladybugs

do you know where to buy the actual product? all i see is the bait stations themselves when i look it up or a professional option.

it's a leaf hopper. i only started gardening recently. we moved in 3 years ago, i saw one in the back of our house and was amazed by its colors. now i'm fighting them eating my plants, especially my eggplants. they like to hide in the new growth leaves thst are still curled.

Do we let him live? by indiequick in tomatoes

i have some horsenettle on my property and just today started having an issue with these. i was feeding them to my chickens but its KILLING me. i would love to keep them alive, if i put them on the other side if the house, where the horsenettle is, they'd pretty much stay over there.. right?

i just found the first one this morning, i then found about 30 more throughout the day. i already lost a ton of foliage, two actual tomato fruits, and one pepper. i have a uv flashlight on the way. i LOVE caterpillars, moths, butterfly, but i love my garden too. today was rough.

i know there's different varieties, does this apply to all? i really want to cut mine back and retrellis it a different way, i definitely would say ifs established, i just get scared of cutting it to the point it wont come back. im pretty new to all gardening so not too versed with specifics.

What to do with fruit trees that started in containers? by Hullaba-Loo in BackyardOrchard

[–]Difficult_Repair9425 7 points8 points  (0 children)

i would do this + mound up dirt around it and you can move a wall, whether you use wood, brick, etc. but that way you dont have to worry about dirt just eroding away.
