Good Morning Calvin & Doris! Thanks for the hint about DE. Luckily, our potatoes went untouched this year so far. I've considered using DE for other pests -- but have hesitated out of concern of how it affects earthworms. Do you know if it does if used on the surface? And what about if it makes it into compost and is then incorporated into soil -- could it harm worms then?
your friend,
Leigh
Very good question Leigh.I would also be interested in weather or not DE could possibly be compatible with worm's.I actually have been curious about weather or not the DE was harmful for the worm's or not.I moved to Bull Shoal's AR. and the insect's here are nothing like what I'm used to coming from the Central Coast in Ca.So when I found out about the DE I was stoked,being as I'm an organic type of person,for health reason's especially.I got to say,that it's been a challange trying to find good organic produce,anytime,especially in the winter,and last summer(my first here)the bug's ate two third's of what I planted.So any tip's on what and how to grow organically,are very much appreciated.Namaste Ed
