Thank you Hetty and Michael. This is a really great site. I actually had one grasshopper sneak into the netting but I added more netting and my seedlings haven't been touched since. Its kind of unattractive but I have to have it up until the seedlings develop thicker trunks. I'm afraid to touch the grasshoppers, I had one fly on my face and I nearly had a heart attack lol. I have 1 hoya, and aloe plant. I have 20 epi cactus which have become a favorite of mine next to plumerias. I also grow dragon fruit, bananas, loquats, pomegranates, several houseplants, and I have been starting a drought tolerant garden too.
