Bugs - July 16, 2024

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.
