Hey guys you remember when I was telling you that companion planting was good for plants? I told you about how corn helped beans and beans helped corn? Well guess what? Planting certain plants and herbs can also deter pests from overtaking your garden! Haven't you guys always wanted to grow organic produce but ended up having to spray your plants to save them from determined, destructive pests? Have rabbits eaten your roses or raspberries? Have you ever heard to plant garlic cloves in the same area as your roses or raspberries? The garlic deters the rabbits from eating the roses and there are a TON of different plants you can plant in your garden so you wont end up having to spray it with chemicals. Look at this site and you will be utterly amazed: http://www.gardensablaze.com/Companions/CompanionPest.htm
