So i removed alll the dead stuff (the most recent was a Scale coated watermelon vine), SCREAMED the house down, bring the whole pot to the stairway, Boil a kettle of hot water and POUR IT INTO THE SOIL!

DIE!!! CENTIPEDES! DIE!!! ANTS!!! DIE!!! MEALY!!! DIE!!! SCALES!!!!

Everything dead.

Den.. i mixed in my fermenting blend of banana skins + eggshell powder + some table scrapes + I threw in some water kefir grains to better ferment..

Now resting at the stairway (Trust me the smell is not very very pleasant). Most prob gonna throw in some seeds or beans to let re-start the eco system.

Did try mixing the blend in another pot (baby curry plant + Ginger plant + amaryllis bulb) - Too rich liao.... ginger's burning up.

Will try the boiling method ,

Thanks

When there is mealy bug, there will be ants. Ants is your major issue you should tackle first. Ants bring mealy bug around. There are some dusting powder for ants. Will take a while to remove them.

Talk about bugs.

I have this black tiny bugs on my capsicum plants and the same pesticide for white bugs doesn't work. Any suggestions how I can deal with these?
