Bugs


Found out today that the pumpkin seedlings we planted yesterday in the research beds have been devastated by red bugs.  Usually our plants resist these pests but the wet conditions are bringing them in abundance to the point where the plants can’t deal with them.


Rajan made a spray this evening but I think nets are the only answer so that plants have enough time to grow large enough to resist them.
