I do byodynamic gardening. Mostly I use the various lunation cycles and 500, 501 with the occasional insect potency and of course composting and companion gardening. Here in Auckland, New Zealand we have this dreadful stuff called Kaikuyu which I understand is something like couchgrass or doggrass. Dogs and cats use it to induce vomitting. If anyone has come across this stuff they will know that it propogates with the smallest rhizome. Anyway the problem is that the grass is almost impossible to get rid of and I haven't yet grown seeds to make a pepper yet. Maybe someone out there has made a potency that they'd be willing to sell me or has come up with anh another solution. I read somewhere that Kaikuyu (I think that's the Japanese name) doesn't lik like soy beans so I shall give that a shot as well. I've also been told that it doesn't like salt but I really don't want to use salt on my garden and I don't mind it in my lawn. If anyone has any ideas I look forward to a reply.
