Garden Poll Time! 🍅🫑
When you’re picking out your tomato or pepper plants for the season, what’s your strategy? Assuming the cost is the same:

Option 1: One sturdy, single plant that's a bit further along.
Option 2: A 4-pack of smaller starters to give you more plants to spread out.

Do you prefer getting a head start with bigger plants, or do you like the volume of a 4-pack? Tell us in the comments! 👇

WELL YOU GUYS HAVE MADE THIS HARD. IT LOOKS LIKE WE WILL JUST HAVE TO HAVE BOTH WHEN POSSIBLE.

Yes, we have all seen them. Japanese beetles. Do they seem even worse this year? Neem Oil and Milky Spore is what works for us and we highly recommend using both as a preventive, but if you missed your window, it is still not too late.

This year's beetle damage looks brutal — bare stems, shredded leaves, a plant that looks half-dead by July. But Japanese beetle damage is almost never fatal, and by September a deep watering and good feed brings the new growth back. Here are the 7 fixes to get your garden through the worst of it now.
