Welcome Dawg! Buckets is the way to go if you've got critters in the soil! Keep posting on your progress!!!

Unfortunately, within the last five years my garden has also been invaded by rootknot nematodes. They must have come in on some soil I had delivered for new raised beds I was adding. I've been beating back the population with a combination of marigolds, cover crops of buckwheat and Sunn hemp, and lots of tilling during the hottest summer months to expose/kill them.

Welcome Dawgs! Hope you have a knockout season!!!

Nice pics. You've got several of my faves on your list -- especially Golden Girl.
