You know, I've never seen a SVB around here. One article I read said to put out a yellow dish with soap water in it as SVB's would be attracted to the yellow. Nope. None. No insects at all with any kind of red anywhere on them. I have a note on 2019 that said the 1st SVB damage on squash was May 30. No note on that from last year.
It's time to get out the bT. Yesterday I found the first munching if a hornworm on tomato foliage and a tomato fruitworm damaged the first nice big green German Johnson. I didn't find the hornworm (bird picked it off?) but I did find the fruit worm and that sucker is no more.
The garden plan says I need to start another straightneck and zuke on the 28th and so I will. Meanwhile, more rain today.
