does the spray contain BACILLIUS THEROGENIOUS ??? b.t. for short,

thats a main ingrediant in any ''real'' caterpillar killer,

 

[workhorse_01]

Yes, It's Garden Safe Bt Worm and catepillar killer for organic gardening. Thank you for posting about the Bt the other day that's what made me buy this. Boy does it smell putrid. Imixed a teaspoon to a gal. as directed and sprayed ,after one spray no more buggers. I'm going to spray again in one week in case of eggs.

i sprayed 2 days ago,, and it rained the next day,,,,,aaarrrgghhh....

but it did get some of them, i noticed one was dead, 4-sure, it's funny how they die, it's like they eat,,and just drop dead, they will have thier mouths on the leaf, and thier bodies will be hanging limp...

but they die taking that last bite,

the poision kills them from the inside,,, the more leaf they eat,,,the more poision they get in thier system..

thats why i like to spray,,,and hopefully try to keep the leaf dry for 4 days,,,,, so they can eat and die,

Thats some good lookin plants Workhorse.

 

[Rayshields]

Very good growth in a short time.

We went from too wet to too dry in a matter of days. I am down to needing to plant about 20 plants to be "ALL IN." My earliest plants were mudded in and are not doing real well, but those that went into loose soil are doing pretty well. The only upside to the dry spell is that the weeds and grass aren't making much progress.

Pictures when I get the last ones planted.

 

[Chicken]

it's nice to see them rows get some plants in them,

 

[workhorse_01]

60 more in the ground today.pictures tomorrow.

 

[Chicken]

how many you think you'll have total???

 

[workhorse_01]

Somewhere around 400 in 6 varieties

 

[Chicken]

that should be plenty for personal consumption,,, and a lot left over for profit<

 

[jeapadrenaline]

Sounds like me, was planning on 150-200 but probably end up with 300 or more. Planned 4 varieties, ended up with 10. Lol
But will be jealous of chickens plants and setup no matter what.
