Sunset view from my balcony at 2050 hrs today, powering the growth of my veggie #garden.

i'm having trouble with aphids and ants now on the zucchini & cucumbers, but i think i've got the cukes under control.. https://peakd.com/hive-140635/@atma.love/first-root-harvest-this-season

What a lovely view ... if memory serves, aphids hate the smell of peppermint oil ...or was it pepper? You can mix that into water and spray your plants off in the evening and see if they will move on...

The spray I've been making has water, dish soap, olive oil & peppermint oil!

Well, keep at it -- some of those aphids might just be extra tough! Maybe throw some black pepper in there for the stubborn ones!
