Thank you for this podcast. My husband and I are trying to garden for the first time this year and after listening to this podcast I inspected the plants very closely and found bugs. We went to the store last night, made the bug spray you talked about and sprayed everything down in our vegetable garden.This morning I went out front and found aphids all over my daisy plants! They have now been sprayed down as well. We will keep watching everything closely. Thank you for all of your tips!
