Been seeing these little bastards recently. Sevin dust has taken them out. After our big wind storm last week, i staked my squash to start going up some poles. Wrapped the base of the plant with foil because why not.


Black eyed peas, cream zipper peas, butter beans, and okra have entered the garden. Spent the afternoon pulling weeds out of the aisle next to the potatoes that got out of hand. Low 90s high humidity and no wind made that some kind of enjoyable. Burned the remnants with the propane torch and put mulch down. The pool and cold beers felt great after that fun.

Got a few pics from the garden this afternoon.

Sunflowers have been showing off.


Peppers are kinda leaning after all the weather this past week. But they’re doing well. The giant marconis live up to their name. Jalapeños, shishitos, and cayennes are starting to come in. And I’ve started picking a few tomatoes. Also got some eggplant coming in.





Beans are about to pop. And cucumbers are finally getting started.



Watermelon vines are starting to creep.


Its finally blueberry picking time!


And all of the onions are pulled and laid out in a shady spot with a fan on them.

If I see more what is best way to treat.
