Baking Soda Has Many Uses.....how about as a pesticide? Or maybe a fungicide? Today, let's look at how to use Baking Soda, or Sodium Bicarbonate, in the garden for an effective treatment against aphids, whiteflies, thrips, caterpillars, spider mites as well as prevention of fungal outbreaks such as powdery mildew.
There are a few caveats (of course), but as always, we'll cover it all and let you make the most informed choice for your garden! And don't forget to spray a test leaf first to ensure no phytotoxicity!
For those of you looking for a detailed, self-paced gardening course designed for both beginners as well as passionate growers, check out my new online course Vegetable Gardening Basics. We're now live and taking the first batch of enrollments! courses.theripetomatofarms.ca...
2024 is the Year of the Garden! We deserve it after the last little while, and growing our own food and self sufficiency is just the reward we need to get back on track!

Looking to grow your first vegetable garden? Or maybe you’ve given it a try in the past and didn’t enjoy the success you thought you would? Well, I designed a self-paced online gardening course just for you! 12 core chapters of a video-based program that will take you from complete beginner to garden master without having to sift through hours and hours of KZfaq content. Videos that barely contain the relevant information you need to get started focusing on garden tours and channel updates rather than useful insight. With Vegetable Gardening Basics, we’ve changed all that and synthesized all the information I’ve learned over my 30 plus years of growing food down to all the key pieces of the puzzle to unlock your growing potential. Every basic skill, technique, tip, trick, you name it, its all here. A 150+ page high resolution PDF guidebook is also included to help reinforce and guide you along the way, making the learning and absorbing of the material even easier. Lifetime access is included, including any updates or extra content. The first batch of enrollment is now live, secure your spot today! courses.theripetomatofarms.ca/courses/vegetable-gardening-basics

My father was an organic farmer back in the 60's on a 7 acre farm in the burbs in NJ . Which people came from all around to get veggies and we even had Restaruants buy from us . Bug control was our chickens . Fertilizer was always aged manure and water came from rain barrels that we put bags in to make manure tea to spray in the gardens .We did the picking and planting and in the winter mom and I would make seed pots from newspapers Our equipment was wheelbarrows and rototillers and our hands and backs

Trying to find a fix for powdery mildew was driving me nuts last year. Thank you for showing me a way to keep it from getting started in the first place! Love your channel!

Hey Corina, best of luck this year! Let's hope we don't get it at all though! 🙂

I heard that ground cinnamon sprinkled on top of the soil works,

@@jennifercooley3313 hi Jennifer, possibly for soil-borne spores... But ones on the leaves and ones coming from the air would circumvent that.

You can also spray the leaves with a milk and water mix directly.

I've had powdery mildew all summer and getting ready to plant for fall. How do I treat the soil that is contaminated as well before I plant? I heard you have to wait a few months to plant if we get powdery mildew because the soil is contaminated too.

Just a tip for anyone who does this, find out the perfect time on your garden to spray this. Spray during evening so that your plants have time to absorb it. Also do not overspray, if you do it will cause the leaves to slightly burn, don’t be alarmed it’s not terrible, but just avoid it. Also, this spray does work!!

Hi there! Does it work against flea beetle? I got an infestation.

Will it work for yard ants? They are everywhere...

@@dlspeed1 we use DE (diatomaceous earth) for ants, its organic and you can get 50 pound bags at livestock feed stores way cheaper per pound than the little 5 pounds bags in the fancy organic gardening stores. It's a fine powder, so don't breathe it in and don't let your dogs of cats sniff it as it should not get in the lungs, but it's actually edible. It was once used on a very broad scale to prevent infestation of our grain supply here in the US by placing it directly in the grain (you know, back when the government cared enough to make sure we had at least a 7 year supply on hand in case of emergencies), since then it has fallen out of use, which is sad since its very effective and safe to use. It actually cuts into the bodies of harder bodied pests and cuts open their exoskeletons and causes them to dehydrate and die. We place it around the perimeter of the house and directly on plants. Make sure it's going to stay sunny for a couple of days, since once this is wet it's not effective. Hope this helps :) God bless!

Does it work to kill aunts, too? my potato plant is destroyed by a bunch of aunts/insects!! Any suggestion to get rid of it? Pls help! Thanks!😊

@@deehope9477 DE (diatomaceous earth) does kill ants. it causes cuts to their exoskeletons and they dehydrate and die, we use this a few times each year to keep ants out of the house and garden as needed

That was a complete game changer for me . Hey Jeff last year I put in a few raspberries blackberries and blueberries. they did really well. Will you be doing a video on pruning and prep for the new year . I do not know what to do with them. Thanks

@TheRipeTomatoFarms 2 жыл бұрын

Thanks! Yes, definitely more berry videos on the way.....! Pruning of the Blackberries occurs mostly at the end of summer. Blueberry bushes I leave alone completely...only ever removing dead branches. Raspberries get superficially cleaned in the fall, then pruned once new growth starts in the spring and you can see which branches are old.

You do know that both raspberry and blackberry bushes are mean, vicious, evil plants that will attack you if you come within 5 feet of it, right?
