Yay, that's great news about the neem oil's effects on aphids. Will give it a try. It really worked well with the squash mildews and decreased the number of bugs present since.
For the squash I have no idea how many for as long they could make many bellies happy 😁 One of them was unplanned, it grew from the vegetable scraps thrown in one corner.
You're certainly setting up some wonderful restaurants for creepy-crawlies
Yikes 🙈 they should start paying the tab hahaha. Happy gardening @shanibeer and have a lovely weekend
