Re: Gardens 2022
So far so good . The hot wire along the top of the fence seams to be working . Now more signs of coons in the garden , but they are still around as I have seen the little hands prints on stuff .

We're under attack! They have decimated two tomato plants in no time!
Tonight it's war, the ultraviolet light comes out!

Re: Gardens 2022
@Eugen What is it? Or should I ask what does it turn into when it grows up? The closest thing I think I’ve ever seen to that is a catalpa tree worm. I hope you can get rid of them!

Re: Gardens 2022
It's called the tomato horn worm. A huge caterpillar. Turns into the sphinx moth, also called hummingbird moth. It's the first time we had them. From what I've heard they aren't hard to get rid of, but you have to act fast and find them.

Re: Gardens 2022
Picked our first watermelons and cantaloupe today! I should have checked the cantaloupe sooner I lost a couple but we have a lot on the vine.
