Thonked a SVB moth on the head, but it was tougher than my thonking it. Went to get some bug spray, but by then it had left....not before it laid about fifteen eggs at various places on my Tromboncino Squash Vines, and probably some places I had missed. The eggs don't wash off. They have to be picked off. I wonder if there is some "natural enemy" to SVB moths..I know there is BT for the maggoty borer babies.
If I make it through summer without falling off my ladder which I use in my Cucuzza/Tromboncino obsession it will mean my guardian angel is putting in overtime.
Also today, I bought a pump sprayer so I can do foliar feedings on my plants.
We have no outdoor tomatoes that are ripe yet, so I am jealous of your tomato production. Hubby’s garden is doing well so far. Yesterday he bought a drip hose and now has water running through it into his garden from the swimming pool water collected from the roof top.
We had up to 3000 gallons when he started. I still have to lug buckets, so we need to figure out a better way for me too.
OK for as long as I have been gardening (45 years??) I have never heard of a cucuzza so I had to google it. Must be no one grows them up here. (Michigan)
