Yep, they’ve arrived…drats! I had to yank one of the pumpkins, but it hadn’t really produced anything so I wasn’t too heartbroken. Another vine has 2 little pumpkins that are ripening, then I’m pulling it. The other couple are okay for now. I have new seeds popping up and am planting radishes around these in hopes that it helps!
Oh how I despise the borers…
On a better note, my neighbor gave me 4×4 untreated scrap wood so I will be making my Mason Bee houses tonight. Yay!
Hope your world is bug free for today! Or at least bad bug free…let the beneficials fly!!
Peace!
I’ll bet floating row cover would keep them out– I’m going to use it this year on my brassicas to guard against cabbage worms.
definitely using row covers for the new sprouts along with the radishes…i really don’t like those bugs..;)
