This is my first year growing plants on a patio mainly since I finally have a patio(deck) to place them on (city living). Well I have a tomatoe plant, strawberry plant, basil, thyme (lots of herbs) and hot pepper plants. I have lots of ants now, that go into the pepper plants (from what I can tell they love peppers, funny ants that love some spicy stuff) and not only that I've notice almost like white/light yellow seeds or something on my pepper plants (thai, oriental and jalapeno peppers). I haven't used any fertilizers for my plants (yet) looks like I might need too, any suggestion on what to use, oo yeah I have dogs too and a kitty, well she's 6 yrs old but still a kitty to me
- Now my tomatoe plant she's ok so far I have about 3 tomatoes that came out but now the leaves look dried out and yellowish, I just repotted it from its original little pot I had received it in from the farmers market. The strawberry plant she looks good repotted also (bought most of food plants from the farmers market) but no new berries have came out, when I purchased the plant it had 2 berries. I appreciate any and all information you can give this fairly new gardener.
