Letโs face it โ I canโt blame some of these bugs and plants for showing up in my garden. My broccoli is amazing โ why wouldnโt those caterpillars want to eat it? My soil is has more nutrients than a bag of compost โ why wouldnโt that Himalayan blackberry want to set its roots down?
But that doesnโt mean I want to just roll over and let them take over. Thatโs where practices like pest and weed management come into play. In this section, we cover everything from how to deter mosquitos and deer, to larger scale concepts like crop rotation.
