Re: Im building a 144 sq ft grow bed system.
my system is just on my back lanai so yes...birds could be the culprit...
I do see lots of geckos around the system. They could be there only for the water but my tomatoes are very tasty

Re: Im building a 144 sq ft grow bed system.
I have seen where people hang old CDs out to keep birds away...
Does this work?
Actually this brings up a question that I know everyone wants to know but is scared to ask...
Do birds prefer country or rock-n-roll CDs???

Re: Im building a 144 sq ft grow bed system.
Don, I thought a gecko in the house was a sign of good luck in Hawaii. 1 tomato is a small price to pay for lots of good luck.
At what point did our government cease to be of the people, by the people, and for the people?

Re: Im building a 144 sq ft grow bed system.
So sebarker75, how are things going in your neck of the woods...got any recent updates or photos...don't keep us in suspense.
Don, I don't know about where you are from, but here in AMERICA
geckos eat insects not veggies...so if your geckos are like ours in AMERICA they are probably helping keep the bug and maybe catapillar population down just like they do here in AMERICA

Re: Im building a 144 sq ft grow bed system.
man i cant keep the insects away from my plants. i got spider mites on my beans. and i have a skinny black catapillarwith a white stripe down its back on my tomatoes. its very frustating to deal with when your not around to mess with it. i just put some green and red cabbage out and i hope it does good. my cucumbers have about died, and the corn turned out kind of small cobbs. i still have peppers and broc, coli, tomatoes, green beans, collard greens and some kale. i will send some pics
