At the family 4th of July stomp, Uncle Jack said that if I find round, healed-over holes in my tomatoes, I should spray them for bugs.
My first purple grape tomato ripened in the community garden. Only one. I pulled it, intending to dust it off and eat it there and then, but there was a round, healed-over hole in it, which I considered might have bug in it, so I threw it away without tasting it. Then I sprayed bug spray on the plants. Hated to do it, but it seems necessary.
I did some weeding and planted three hills of squash between one of the tomato rows. There's a chance of rain for the next couple of days, so maybe they'll pop right up.
