CPBs are regular diners in my garden.
![]() Reading a thread in the eggplant forum about using summer turnips as traps for flea beetles, and it occured to me that perhaps I could plant a row of potatoes for the same purpose. I wouldn't much care if I didn't get much of a crop (although a few new potatoes with the first peas of the season is heaven in a bowl..)...but would this work in the intended way, or attract MORE CPBs, or just be adding a second course to their meal? My biggest pests on my toms are the CPBs and stinkbugs later in the season...just in case anyone has any thoughts about THOSE critters, too. |
