Awesome, everything looks great. 💕 I should grow sunflowers next yr. It's one of the few things I can grow in the ground bc it's super rocky bc I live at the base of a mtn range in the Rockies. Sunflowers grow wild all over Utah.

[@AlienSpaceship471]

I didn't know they grow wild there, that will be great for you to grow them, and I'm glad it's a flower you can grow because of the rocky soil. I'm glad you enjoyed the garden update! 💕

Very nice garden update! Wow! I didn’t realize the pumpkin 🎃 started to grow. Great to see everything!

[@AlienSpaceship471]

Thanks so much! It's very exhilarating !! I love the pumpkins!!

Garden looking great. Aphids killed my pepper plants 😞 You must share the mint insect repellent recipe with me. What kind of insects does it repel?

[@AlienSpaceship471]

In this situation to delete the Aphids you can get dish soap and water in a bottle and spray it on the cretins. I have done that before also getting mint and water and put it in a bottle let it dissolve for a day or a few hours it should work keep in mind Walmart sells a mint repellent already pre made in a spray bottle. This link shows instructions about the soap water solution the link was shortened: rb.gy/7mohsc I have had the mint ferment when it was in the bottle for a long time and I also let air into it. I made wine from grapes as a kid so I know how to ferment things but that isn't necessary that was just for fun lol.

@@AlienSpaceship471 I did spray with soap water but I think it was too late. Either the aphids ended my plants or the heat, but no peppers for me 😞

[@AlienSpaceship471]

Oh no, I feel for you that sucks 😞 still try to water it, but if you have more seeds imo it's not too late to try again. Now you know how to get rid of aphids and other pests.

@@AlienSpaceship471 Looked at my plants again this morning, I think the hot pepper is trying to make a comeback. Most of the leaves fell off but there's new flowers. Not sure about the bell pepper yet, with luck that one will make it too. Been raining today so that's helped with bringing the heat down. Only got up to 89° today.

[@AlienSpaceship471]

@@StrandedLifeform Glad it's cooling off love rain, the peppers look like they are coming back well; I think it will be fine imo.

I love it Alien! Everything looks so beautiful! Do you remember the first thing you ever planted? You're very talented. 🌻🌱🌻🌱🌻🥰

[@AlienSpaceship471]

Yes I do! When I was in 1st/2nd grade my grandpa took me to one of the hardware stores and this older man owned it and he was a farmer and he suggested corn seeds and taught me how to grow them. I practiced and in the summer I harvested corn and it tasted so good!! I saw a small tree growing within the corn patch I didn't let anyone cut it and now the tree is to the sky.
