Those delphiniums are gorgeous! I grew mine from seed this year and they are about a foot tall total. It’s fall here in Ohio, but they are still blooming. Can’t wait to see how big they get next year, so I’m learning everything I can to care for them correctly. Thank you for the easy tips!💕
Love Mary Ann!!❤ as I ramp up gardening tools and supplies for spring 2024, watching this video for my Delphinium is a must every year. Thank you for the tips!
I thought she was going to like, move the slug or gently remove it, but she just massacred it as the opening of her video… lol I feel a little traumatized
I thought what she did was evil too until I found so many army of snails in my garden on a nice morning and I went and did something more horrible to them.. I crashed all their shells and body with a brick 🧱 until they really died and became slime only LOL
Slugs eat live plants. Most snails do not. They just eat the dead plant material away which actually venefits the garden. Except for the snails with a brown or black shells. So if they have green shells, they're likely to be harmless and actually helpful for you.
Right in the opening scene, could at least have mentioned she was about to do it first so people would have had the chance to switch off if they were watching with small children.
Kill slugs lay. Coffee grinds used and broken eggs shells around root of plants prevents slugs climbing plants cuts and kills them😡, ! Save an grinds and eggs shells from breakfast then get to work in garden! Over watering created slugs!
My delphiniums are years old! Grow annually water am warm days sonetimes evening! Too much watering will create slugs in your garden! Rid by laying coffee grinds mixed with egg broken egg shells at roots if@of all plants, the slugs will get cut up and die! Or buy slug bait at garden lay roots of plants slugs will dye when Consume! Love your gardens! I work my beautiful gardens sometimes 8:39-.5:39! Breaks thoughout!😁
Great info! Good to know what divas delphiniums are before I invest in them. Also, I've never seen anyone chop a slug in half 🐌 lol I'll have to try that since it still serves a purpose in composting into nitrogen. Really enjoyed this! Thanks!!
Not everyone wants to see you gaily chopping slugs in half, when they think they’ve tuned into a happy video about delphiniums. Please put warnings in your title for things like this.
I gave your video thumbs down All your tips are rather "surprising" Because A: no matter what, you can't grow them at all unless you deter sluggzzzz Every delphinium grower knows that. B: Goes without saying that tall slender varieties need staking, However you didn't mention sturdy shorter varieties !! C: I would expect a more accurate tip on fertilizer, from a vid sponsored so directly by a fertilizer company. .. At what growing stages ❓ what NPK ratio❓ do they benefit acid / base❓ Organic matter ❓ and even HOW MUCH PER PLANT 🌺🌺🌺👀❓❓ I'D love to see that vid re done .
Eggs shellls and coffee grinds will protect you flowers from being demolished by slugs! Live and learn! Or buy slug bait to rid your beautiful garden of slugs! Or have your garden die if nothing done your choice!
U didn’t have to kill the slug lady.. it wasn’t bothering you. That was so barbaric 😳 omg what is wrong with you?! And then u have the nerve to explain it away like u did the slug a favor… wow. I know it was just a slug but that seemed very insensitive to me. That’s the end of the video for me
This woman is full of pride and joy by killing a living creature. It is quite repulsive behavior in the garden when one should be humble towards the law of nature.
