I harvested my kang kong last night but they ended up in the trash instead of the wok. The underside of the leaves were infested with mealy bugs! I'm quite fed-up of this never-ending problem. I wonder if the soil is infected or because I have not taken any steps to keep the bugs under control. Whatever it is, it is plain discouraging to grow vegetables in my patio.
:( oh dear.. but you r doing such a good job.. Thinking abt your watercress and other lovely plants make me green with envy.. (no pun intended.. heehee)
ReplyDeleteI hate mealy bugs too... they r slow in moving but reproduce so fast!
You can eat mealy buys, That's why they're called that!

Oh, Ting, don't don't give up! You must not let the mealy bugs rule, yah!
ReplyDeleteI hate mealy bugs too. I go around the garden busting them as they attack my lady fingers and roselle. I squashed many of them. But I do feel bad. However, I feel worst when I see my plants dead. So, it's a matter of the bugs or my plants survive! I choose my plants!
Mealy bugs are attacking my YTT, mulberry and Roselle. It's so hard to get rid of them. *Sad*
