Lost almost half of them. Starts like tomato wilt then day later they look like they have been left out to totally dry out. Pulled what little roots are left and termited falling all over the ground. Drenched with spinosad yesterday. Going to see if any are going to make it
Two roads diverged in the woods and I took the one with deep ruts,hills and mud.It may be bumpy but WHAT A RIDE!

We had that happen too. Planted the first plant and it was doing great. Then it just wilted. Planted a second, same thing. When I pulled up the second to investigate, the roots were covered in termites. Did a little research and this was my solution. It contains living organisms that actively hunt the termites. After the termites are gone, the stuff just dies out. You might give it a try. Worked for us. https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00BWRNE3A?ref=ppx_yo2ov_dt_b_fed_asin_title![[Linked Image from m.media-amazon.com]](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61phxDlxNuL._AC_SL1000_.jpg)

That's interesting. Hate it for you. It might explain why I have some grow bags / beds that don't do as well. I've had plants, mostly peppers, just die for no reason. When I pulled the roots were almost gone. Didn't see termites but didn't look for them either. I figured it was pill bugs.

Rotting sawdust probably attracted them like crazy plus drip irrigation gave them moisture only at the roots of the plants.

I’ve used those beneficial nematodes, to rid my raised beds of Japanese beetle grubs.

I am going to get some as I have had some peppers wilt and die for no reason and when I pulled them up the roots were almost gone. Didn't see any termites but it can't hurt

Didn't see any termites but it can't hurt The first plant we lost was like that. When I pulled it the roots were gone. The second plant was caught earlier. When it began to wilt, I pulled it up and the roots were full of termites.
