Hereโ€™s part 2 for storing onions! A few more thin Hereโ€™s part 2 for storing onions!

A few more things to note:
1. Check your onions over and make sure none of them are soft or showing signs of spoilage.

3. Avoid storing them in a solid plastic tote.

Hereโ€™s your pumpkin bodyguard line-up โคต๏ธ ๐ŸŒฑDill fl Hereโ€™s your pumpkin bodyguard line-up โคต๏ธ

๐ŸŒฑDill flowers attract beneficial insects such as hoverflies and ladybugs (that prey on aphids) and predatory wasps (that prey on caterpillars and other insects)

๐ŸŒฑBorage attracts beneficial insects and deters pests 

๐ŸŒฑGerman Chamomile attracts hoverflies and wasps, repels Mexican bean beetles 

๐ŸŒฑNasturtium is a trap crop for lots of pests including cucumber beetles, squash bugs, aphids & whiteflies.

๐ŸŒฑCatnip deters ants, weevils, squash bugs, Japanese beetles, flea beetles, and mice. 

๐ŸŒฑLemon Balm repels squash bugs.

๐ŸŒฑOregano attracts hoverflies and repels aphids.

My goal for my pumpkins is to alternate an herb and a flower. 

We want to attract the beneficials in with the flowers and repel the bad pests with the herbs (scent). 

If you want a garden that protects itself โ€” without chemicals or constant guessing โ€” comment SYSTEM and Iโ€™ll DM you the link.๐Ÿ’š๐ŸŒฑ๐Ÿ’š
