How is everyone's gardens doing this year? Got any cool new types of vegetables you want to share with the group? Any good recipes to use those vegetables?
 
First year I didn't do a garden. Job change on top of playing music a lot more than in the past took up too much time. Kind of glad I skipped this year.
 
I would say that this year wasn't the best for me. My flowers just stared dying, and I didn't know why. I called a friend of mine that is a florist, and he told me that my roses are infected with some sort of parasite insect, called fleas. He recommended me to buy a flea Fogger, but the problem is that there are so many on the market that I don't know which one to buy. I found on https://www.growgardener.com/best-rope-for-pulling-trees-here-are-5-best/ that Spectracide Bug Stop Indoor Fogger is good, but I am not quite sure. Has anyone used it before?

I would avoid strong non-specific insecticides if you can, because they can kill beneficial pollinators unless the situation is dire. Is it a flea beetle or a flea-like mite? If it’s the flea beetle, we had luck with alcohol soap DIY mixes and put up some sticky traps around the flowers. I’m not sure about the mites or other bugs.
