VIDEO: One of The Most Important Steps In Combatting Pests and Disease in The Garden


understanding the classifications of pests in the garden can be one of the biggest reasons we incorrectly apply solutions that don’t really do anything. Systemic and endemic pests and diseases are the two categories you have to understand and how they affect your garden differently. Check out our new clothing line! http:www.freshpickedapparel.com

  1. In order to conquer the animal, I have to learn to think like an animal. And, whenever possible, to look like one. I've gotta get inside this guy's pelt and crawl around for a few days. Carl Spackler

  2. I hate to mention this, but as an avid gardener and channel watcher, I never see you actually do anything like most garden channels do. You just talk, talk, talk (pontificate) at your audience. But now I will unsubscribe from you and your channel as it's just a mouthpiece for your ego

  3. I just dont spray anything. Sorry i do spray water on my leaves sometimes. I just put a bird bath between 2 of my beds. I love watching the birds. If they eat the fruit/vegies, so be it. My thought is that ibwas not ment to have them. We are in a hard dought here in australia atm, sooo birds need some food and water also.

  4. Thx for your great videos. I grow in containers. I had vine bores and squash bugs among others. And powdery mildew. I want to use the same soil. What should I do to amend for next year. I have about 100+ pots some 25 gallons

  5. Thank you for this lesson.

    I love Sun Tzu's quote (from The Art of War, China, around 500BC): “If you know the enemy and know yourself, you need not fear the result of a hundred battles. If you know yourself but not the enemy, for every victory gained you will also suffer a defeat. If you know neither the enemy nor yourself, you will succumb in every battle.”
    Now we know how to class our garden-enemy, so let's fight on!

    I have stout dew on our roses, the rest of the garden is fine. So I guess I have to spray the rosepatch with something, since it's systemic. Now to find a non-chemical weapon…

  6. You made very little sense. Non of your information was helpful. How do you kill tomato blight. That’s allI want to know. You don’t have to stand in n the cold. That’s silly!

  7. I would love to hear about old cultures and how the combated pests and diseases as they didn’t have much of what we do…but I know they knew more. Makes me wonder the Amish as well as they seem to have more of a absolute need for them to grow their food without fail, they also seem to be more connected with natural ways rather then harsh western ways…

  8. Speaking of freezing, can you touch on how cold things like radishes, kale, etc. can actually handle? I have some really low temps coming and while the radishes aren't necessarily ready, I don't want to pull them or give up on them, but want to know at what point to take protective measures for them.

  9. My only question is the following: Would using a fungicide on a plant to treat a fungal borne illness also affect the mycorrhiza in the soil? I had some genovese basil succumb to downy mildew, and I didn't treat it because of this uncertainty. I want to know before it ends up spreading to my sweet basil – which is in a separate container away from the bed I had the genovese basil in.

  10. Thank you, another great information. If you don't mind I will really appreciate it if you help me out with information about peaches worms and drops of glue in them. Thank you again and God bless you.

  11. todays's agricultural problem : "we are trying to save which should die and trying to kill which should live" (not my words, i think Charles Dowding said that)

  12. Are used milk and sprayed it on my plants. Not only did it take away the powdery mildew after a few applications. It also made the leaves and everything very green. I had a free milk supply LOL.

  13. Hey Luke do you like Greta? The Swedish climate activist girl who panics about the warming planet. For her this is to warm. Is her condition systemic or endemic? How to cure her and her handlers?

  14. Powdery mildew is not only on the surface of the leaf, it needs to penetrate the surface to get water from the interstitial space in the leaves.
    My favourite and fool proof method to combat it is to feed the plants amino acid with an active(conventional/inorganic) calcium additive, which will replace the interstitial water with pectin.
    It doesn't harm the plant and it won't make it toxic to eat but the mildew will die off. This is also very gentle on the soil biology!
    But feeding calcium on it's own won't help you much, if at all..

  15. How do I treat my soil after a systemic problem with blight at the soil level without destroying the good fungi in the soil for next year. It’s no joke that in spite of crop rotation , not composting tomatoes or potatoes or strawberries last year I struggled with blight this entire season

  16. Please help me! I have root knot nematodes everywhere in my raised bed garden. My soil is good and full of nutrients. I got very few tomatoes and they seem to be affected the worst. The roots are all bulbous and soft. I have not been able to find anyway to treat several large boxes for root know nematodes. please advise.
