A nice and meaningful video. I saw so many varieties of berries which I never knew the types of berries. I want to know how did you control the pest attack on the plants. I hope you are not using pesticides. Plz let me know. In totality a nice video quite meaningful for garden lovers. Thanks.
Hi there! Thank you for sharing your thoughts on this one. I do not use pesticides. The major pest (if I may call them pest at all) that I have are bunnies, squirrels, birds and rolly pollies. Bunnies did a lot of damage to my blueberry plants this year. I have put a bird cage around the blueberry plants such that it would stop the bunnies but won't bother birds. It has helped with the bunny attack. I try not to deal with birds and let them steal berries. I know eventually all these berry plants will grow big enough to make fruit for birds and us, and we can share it. This year there is a hawk in our neighborhood and seems like it has helped control the squirrel population. But usually I would cover a plant with row covers if I want to protect it from squirrels. I lost a lot of strawberries to rolly pollies this year, but only because I was traveling and was in and out of my town a lot during that period. Next year I will pop the berries on top of straw or a mesh to control this damage. Rolly pollies are important part of ecosystem too because they help a lot with decomposing dead plant materials. So I don't use any thing harsh against any of these pests.
