Hi All,
If both the web and my gardener are correct that Squash bugs hate the smell of onions, I now have transplanted two green onions in each of 12 ground pots hosting cucumbers and zucchinis. I went with Green Onions as I have a bunch of them (I prefer eating my Tokyo onions), they do not have bulbs, so no crowding out of the other plants, and they are really, really onion stinky.

I am also thinking of cutting up a few green onions into a 5 gallon bucket of water, letting the soak for a few day, then pouring them, over my plants.We shall see. I will keep everyone posted.

p.s. earwigs are not offended by my green onions.
