I am semi-organic gardener - by that I mean I hate using poison, but if the critters are winning, I WILL escalate....
I just saw a bunch of aphids on my okra - don't want to use malathion which several sites on Google recommended. Water spray is not going to solve the probelm - soap?
A mild insecticide?
Thanks in advance
Aphids in Veggies - specifically Okra
we use soapy water in the hose end sprayer. it seems to do the trick here.
I alternate DE sprayings and soapy water sprayings.
