I certainly did and then my dog killed him.

 

[WeedHopper]

Bastard. Watched him start out as that fking green caterpillar on my tomato plant and turn into that moth. I put the caterpillar in dirt in a can. Covered the opening. He disappeared into the soil and two weeks later crawled out of the dirt as a moth.

yep. You gotta watch them for sure. They are pretty easy to see tho and they smell great too, just like tomato plants

I’ve seen those hoppers girdle large plants and kill large stems and seen mice girdle them at the base of the stalks….timber!

if it ain’t one thing it’s another

i envy the indoor growers

I think I have better luck indoors but outdoors has some charm with its challenges. im not getting the ton of army bugs this year to help me

but so far the buggos are at bay as I’m knocking on wood

Good morning brothers and sisters! Hugs all around, passing left!

Another gorgeous day here starting at 58F and predicted to reach 88F, but tomorrow is predicted to be triple digits.........................

My annual eye exam went without incident, with no changes in my prescription.

Hee, hee, hee, I sliced our first ripe tomato of the year and shared it with Grayfox in a solemn celebration. One more is really close, but the rest still green.

An old friend from the East coast is in town and we are going to grab breakfast or lunch out today and get caught up.

Good morning Misfits. Sure glad it's Saturday.
My ass is wore out and tired. Not to mention this fking heat in Texas is kicking my ass. My poor veggies and grass is fighting for their life's every day. My water bill is going to be higher that's for sure. Electric bill has gone up because of the AC trying to keep us cool.
It's like being in that damn Twilight zone episode where everything was burning up from the sun. Come to find out the girl was dreaming and had a high fever.
It was called The Midnight Sun.

 

[user 60606]

yeah hop, .. hit 108F here for a peak yesterday .. everything is burning

 

[WeedHopper]

Yeah and no goddamn end in sight until the end of the month.

"Whats his name!"
