Pest Problems

Did you know that yellowing leaves on a bean plant could be caused by more than half a dozen different things? It's true, and none of them are easily identifiable, either. My garden is plagued by pests and I really just don't know what to do about it.

Weeds or Wanted?

Why do baby plants and weeds look so identical?!

Lately, the first thing I do in the morning is go outside to check out the garden and see what's changed since I was last out there (ie yesterday). And the great thing is that there's usually something to see - a new sprout here, more leaves there, buds opening everywhere. It isn't all great, though. Maybe it's just my inexperience talking, but... I can't tell the difference between weeds sprouting and the seeds I planted coming up.

Grass? Spring Onions?
