I had a millipede infestation at one point too, although they are harmless to mature plants, I noticed that I wasn’t able to germinate any seeds when they were around. I believe they eat sensitive seedlings (though maybe larger seedlings will be ok)
Hmm, yeah they do chomp on those too, since seedling is softened it’vs easier to be eaten. But i usually just germinate in the tray before transplant so i didn’t have this problem.
My garden got soooooo many millipede i must’ve killed a lot of them just by walking around 😐
Means you have healthy soil right? Bestnya…
Can’t say healthy, just a lot of compost because i have a huge pile just sitting there 🙈
And a lot of grass to hide in because i lazy 🙈
They also like feasting on the potting soil as i see them hanging around my watermelon
Sounds healthy to me! How long will it take until you can harvest it
Idk, maybe a month or so more, it’s quite big now but there’s still a lot more to grow
I like that we’re both expecting 😂 can’t wait to see your first harvest!
Both are babies 🙈 yeah, really can’t wait
Can’t wait for yours too 👉👈
No… Ah pede 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭
Can’t avoid it 🥲
so it’s not an im-pede-ment for you. I wish I’m not as squirmish 🙃

On the bright side, they might be helping you get rid of unwanted weed before they germinate.
Well they did a terrible job then, still a lot of weed in my garden lol
But i appreciate their existence, i like having a healthy ecosystem within the garden, used to be pretty dead just after development.
Squish squish squish
