These were cucumbers! But now.... oh, the pain! CUTWORMS........DIE!!!!
Today I will be fashioning paper collars laced with diatemacious earth. Does anyone know what other plants I need to protect (are succeptable to cutworms)?
Yeah, my cukes looked the same, as well as my beans and tomatoes, but for a different reason. DEER. I've never actually wanted to shoot an animal before this, but I think we've got our problem figured out.
I don't know what to do with cutworms....sorry! Little birdies and bunnies can do the same thing to your tender plants.
