Here’s a little update on the progress and results of my first attempt at veggie-scrap gardening.
The squashes, parsley and camomile didn’t make it. Slugs and snails. I tried everything! My new tactic —for the remaining flowers/veggies— is to put fruit and veg compost ~near~ the things they like to nibble on, but far enough away to make them not want to get there. Little jerks.
I think the only reason why the celery, onions and garlic survived the slug massacre is because they simply don’t like ’em.
