I’m going to try some soil-science tactics this week.
Biofumigation with mustard involves using mustard plants, typically from the Brassica family, to suppress soil-borne diseases and pests through natural chemical compounds. These plants produce glucosinolates, which break down to release isothiocyanates, toxic to many pathogens.
Cool fact about gardening is that everyone and nobody are experts in gardening. Even nursery growers aren’t really gardeners. They are production factories. Gardening is about planting a vibe that attracts and distributes vibes in the form of more plants and animals. When done correctly, the vibe is universal adored by others.
I passed on buying milkweed at a nursery. Although Butterflyweed and swamp milkweed are great species. There was no life on the plants. Not one aphid. No ladybugs. No bees. I have to assume the plants have pesticides on or inside them. No aphids=no money.
