Two of our papaya have this white powder all over them. Seems its some sort of bug that has this waxy coating over them. they say it's best to spray when they are moving or active... whenever that will happen.
So we sprayed our garden bug spray all over the fruit and stalk. In two days we've seen a drastic improvement on the biggest plant. Today we sprayed them down again. hopefully we can get thm clean and rid of the pests.
Diane was given a Thai Papaya fruit at work. she said it was Huge! She saved the seeds and tonight I rinsed them and set them out to dry. This weekend I'll try planting them and see what we get.
If anyone would like seeds, shoot us an email. I'm dying to try out our new seed packets. Diane was reading a blog over the weekend and this last from Wahiawa had it posted to her flicker account.
I did some searching and found a template and tried printing a few out after I edited the template in photoshop. it wasn't anything fancy, just trying to add our photos from the garden and give some detail to the seed packet.
