Summary

Most of us set out to do just that. But what happens when you see pests munching on your crops? Do you ignore them? Look up a homemade "organic" pesticide? Purchase one from the store? Or are you tempted to throw in the towel and find the strongest pesticide on the home market?

We all want a healthy garden but are faced with those questions when insects come to our gardens. It always helps to talk to successful organic gardeners and ask what works. But I wanted to go a step further.

In this episode of the Beginner's Garden Podcast, I asked Joe Lamp'l about not only his personal practices but also which organic pesticides he recommends and how to use them.

0:00.0	Welcome back to another episode of the Beginners Garden podcast.
0:04.0	If you're like most organic gardeners, you set out at the beginning of the season ready to do everything you can by the book.
0:12.0	No synthetic fertilizers like we talked about in last week's episode and no chemical pesticides.
0:19.0	But what happens when you see a pest munching on your plants,
0:24.6	eating your leaves or even the fruit?
0:27.1	What do you do?
0:28.8	It's truly a panic moment for sure,
0:31.1	especially since you worked so hard
0:33.3	to make sure that your plants are thriving and are healthy. The truth is, there's not one easy
0:40.6	solution to a lot of pests that we deal with, but that doesn't mean all is lost. Today I'm so

0:56.0	Growing a Greener World, or you may have heard my previous podcast with him, episodes number 91, 92,
1:04.0	and last week when we talked about organic fertilizer options. Joe is my go-to person when it comes to organic gardening, because he's not
1:16.2	one who will whip out a pesticide at the first side of a bug. Instead, he's one that will look at the
1:22.5	big picture. But don't get me wrong, he knows his organic pesticides, and we're going to talk about several
1:28.4	common ones at the end of the show. That way, you'll have some options if you decide that you're
1:34.7	going to need to step in. We all want the healthiest garden possible, and we all want to do the
1:41.3	least amount of damage to the environment in which our garden resides.
1:45.4	And for that, Joe is going to share his wisdom and his tips with us today.
1:53.4	Hi, I'm Jill, and in 2013, I started my first garden, having no background, knowledge, or experience
