He said to build another one except with only four spots raised up for tropaeolum, so I did. And he receives kale leaves for his good advice.

tropaeolum

Dammit, I've been bouncing on the wrong thing, this entire time! 😬

You and your doggie give me strength, though. I had a nice little window-vegetable-herb garden going last year, before an aphid somehow snuck in there. Talk about --GAME OVER--, and I just... lost my spirit.

I guess grow lamps are an option, thought. I was just relying on good ol' Sol...

Castile soap supposedly fucks up aphids, I bought some just as a back up if I see any bugs.

Or Safer Soap as an alternative, made from different (non-toxic) materials.
