Ugh, the spider mites are taking over my balcony garden.

I know I can't use neem oil safely.

I need to figure out how to do garlic water?

Maybe get ladybugs or lacewings?

I'm in the process of going through each plant physically, wiping leaves and showering them when I can.

What else can I do? Companion plants? Arrange pots a certain way? I have only an apartment's worth of ability to handle big garden problems.

I’ve never grown bell peppers indoors before. Do I need to pollinate the plant myself? The flowers keep turning brown and falling off instead of becoming peppers. #gardening #gardenquestion
Does anyone know what these two little bugs are, and whether or not I need to be worried about them on this plant?

So a #gardening question. I have a lot of privet hedge in the place I moved into. One part of the hedge is very sparse and another has been overtaken from within by thick cotoneaster. Cut the cotoneaster out or just make it part of the hedging?
Plant new privet in the sparse section?

Alright #GardenMastodon, I grew dahlias from seed this year and they were gorgeous and now I am looking for your best tips for lifting and storing the tubers. #gardentips #dahlias #gardenquestion #gardening
