There are probably insecticides you could try too, but that might not be necessary with a little bit of hand work here and there.Ready to grow your own produce right in your own backyard? Then get ready to harvest a healthy bountyspring, summer and fall. I’m thinking that between some control of larvae and some control of adults, you can lower their numbers enough to insignificant damage levels. I just go out a few nights in a row to a particular avocado tree and gather June bugs, and that makes a big difference in that individual spot for a time. Either gather them or just figure that birds will likely show up and eat some after you walk away.Īlso, in the spring and summer when they’ve become flying adults (June bugs or green fruit beetles or whatever they are), you can do some control of them. My thoughts are that you could use a rake to move around the mulch and expose some of the grubs this time of year. That being said, I can imagine that if the population were high enough, the damage could be significant. As you said, my chickens do a certain amount of control under my trees, but I still have some around. I’ve never noticed grubs in the mulch being a problem. What do you say? Ready for potting up or transplanting, not ready yet, or waited too long? Let’s look at the roots of the biggest plant. But since I’ve already shown and explained when I like to pot up or transplant seedlings, I’ll let you answer these ones. That indicates that the plant is no longer getting all of the nutrients it needs from the soil/compost that its roots are in. It should have been put into a bigger pot or the ground last week (while I was nursing my cold).ĭid you notice the yellowing lower leaves? The plant needs access to more compost or soil. There are way too many roots for that volume of compost. But if you want to grow it in this container as long as is healthy, then you could wait another week or so. ![]() If you’ve got a spot in the garden ready for it, and you’ve got the time to do it only now, go for it. Now you can transplant this spinach plant. There is still soil for the roots to exploit, as you can see by some crumbling onto my palm. The roots have filled out the volume of soil, but they aren’t too crowded yet.Ībove ground the plant seems small. This is what I want the roots to look like when I either put the plant into a bigger pot or into the ground. Now I pop the plant out of its container to look at the roots. I caught a cold last week so some of the vegetable seedlings I would have transplanted earlier were left in their containers longer than ideal while others I suspect still aren’t ready for transplanting. Above is my cart of vegetable seedlings, as of yesterday. Rootbound means the roots in the container are crowded and circling, especially at the bottom. The question is, At what size should you put a vegetable seeding into the ground or a bigger pot? The answer is, At any size before the seedling is rootbound.
