I wouldn’t be surprised about the slug. I found a slug on
the side of my keyhole garden, that’s when I ordered my
molasses. I spread the molasses flecks all over the cabbage
the soil, on the bean leaves, then around the bottom of my keyhole garden. No fire ants, no slugs, nothing is touching
my squash and they are flourishing, can’t keep up with them, and I have only a few. My broccoli leaves looked like
lace until the molasses was spread. I’m getting some nice
looking heads now, in fact later today, I’ll put some molasses on the heads, just in case. Gotta run, the D-Day
festivities begin in a little bit. Take care, behave.

What’s the molasses recipe? We’ve had an invasion of snails this year and there are two ant beds that won’t go away.

Well, well, well, I’m not worthy enough to gaze upon the kittens but apparently I’m good enough to guard them. While I was out just now picking beans, mama kitty who likes keeping me company in the garden, decided it was a good time to take her morning constitutional. When I turned around to take the bucket to the garage and start watering, she was coming back in. Haha, she stopped and the look on her face said she knew she’d been had. Uh huh, we’re going to have to have an attitude adjustment. Poor thing, they’re really taking a toll on her.

I usually put out tuna cans with beer for the slugs.
