Dealing With Garden Pests

Loving Your Garden - Better Gardening Podcast

This time of year should see our gardens at their best in the more temperate climates but it's also a time when pests and diseases are at their most active. In this week's episode, we consider the main pests we're likely to encounter, such as scale insect, aphids and whitefly as well as fungal infections like powdery mildew and effective ways to control them.
We also discuss jobs to be doing in June and John answers members' questions on roses, spraying and weeding, watering and feeding distressed plants and feeding tomatoes and cucumbers.
As ever, you can check the chapter tab if you want to skip to sections of interest but John covers a lot of interesting topics this week so it's well worth listening through the whole podcast.
