    Hi All,

    Death to Squash Bugs!!!

    My gardener is hear picking weeds out of my zeroscape.
    I asked him it is was true about planting onions next
    to zucchini to get rid of the squash bugs. He said
    "Oh yes, Squash bugs hate the smell of onions."

    So my next project is to transplant 24 of my green
    onions (the most smelly) into my 12 squash and
    cucumber ground pots. Two in each pot. The seeds
    just sprouted yesterday, so now is a good time.

    I will keep everyone posted.
