Oh no this alarming, I checked my vegetables like I usually do. Then I noticed this one leaf that is turning a little bit into yellow.
At least I have three of these mustard green pots now in case some of them died.
It's either I over water it last week or infestation, which I haven't really dealt with since I planted them.
Well, The lettuce is doing okay and so as my okra plants but the carrots died from those small slugs.

Oh no I hope they are not infested.
I had one plant here that had that problem but it was because I watered it too much.

I hope you get a chance to plant again @TiarasOceanView now I've been controlling myself when it comes to watering the plants.

Hello @Yadah04 Baking Soda? I've heard of that it kills a lot of ants. So, I had to dissolve them in water first? I might do this.

@Letranknight2015 that is right. dissolve it in water with 1:4 ratio. 1 being the baking soda.

why don't you trim those yellow leaves so there will be new green leaves coming out?

@Letranknight2015 then why not sprinkle them with medicines to protect them from worms and bugs?

You grow lots of veggies. Do you sell some of them?

It's never my intention to sell them @rina110383 just for my own food source since the prices of veggies here are over price.

Sorry to hear that you are having issues like this. I am horrible lately when it comes to plants. That is why I got an Aloe Vera plant because they are almost impossible to kill.

Hello @ebenjie I guess you're right, it's been really cold lately. This is the only one that's turned yellow.
