Onion Neck Rot and Tomato Pest Disaster in Containers

White pudding-like growth at onion base = neck rot (fungal, from excess nitrogen). Discard onions; get new soil. Use garden clay + sand + compost, not lightweight mix. Mustard greens in same pot are safe—wash well.

Tomato Collapse

Hornworms, mites, whiteflies. Soap/oil spray fried foliage. Plants now leafless stems. Rip out and restart. Use better organic controls; consult independent garden center at first sign of trouble.
