A little more from CullenofAdelaid when not in the fray. A tragic on two levels: Gardening and Cooking, with welcome interruptions from family and the wonder that is the world and its people.

My marigold experiment
So I grew them and have dug them in, as somebody has said is a good treatment for root knot nematodes.
I'll let them decompose, but I have been getting a noticeable odour of pyrethrum when I'm around that bed. It could work.
Results won't be in until about January, when I pull up some tomatoes and see how the roots are.
