You can probably get away with heat. I forget what temp bedbugs die at. Might as well try it now.
Put on the good robe and head down to Wally world and pick up some Off, bro.
I have some 90% deet. Worked outside in the northwoods far too long.

The fade has started on the front left plant, I’ll have a better idea of how fast it’ll progress in a few days. I hope it does what its sisters did and really packs it on, it’s looking like it will.

I’m really impressed with the vigor cause this is like two inches away from a 50w cob. Aka the no no zone.

Took the sludge that developed at the drain level below the last tray of my worm factory 360. Have a huge # of worms in that area. I guess they are trying to escape the heat as my garage temps usually go into the 90's when the outside temps get in the 100+ range. I have been throwing in a frozen bottle of water each day.
I thought my worm population was suffering for a while in the winter when I made some newbie mistakes. Looks like things are going OK now.

I'm freezing a large supply of apricots that should last till next season to add to their diet.

Going to try to put the majority back in the bin.

Wow, I'm surprised they are alive in that.
I put scraps in a gallon freezer bag and put it in the deep freezer to kill off any buglies. I dig a hole in the bin, pour out the frozen peels and crap, it cools the whole bin down, and they love it. After it thaws they go after it like piranha.

I'm seeing a deficiency in your worms, manganese?

Anyone ever try to custom build a soil with just EWC? like banana peels for P, lots of green broken down for N. Anyway. I was thinking about it. I have soil test kits for NPK. Might be a little experiment this fall.

As long as you stay close to the common mix ratio's and it isn't hot, You can do just about anything. But I will say, the only way to know what your soil has in it is to get it tested. "Soil Savvy" if you have Amazon prime - here is a link
