I thought I'd get a head start and plant my tomatos early this year.
Everything was going well. *I planted a whole bunch of heirloom

I planted them in trays, they sprouted, I transplanted them then to

all.

It annoys me no end that they destroyed my tomato plants.

I lost all my heirloom tomato seeds and the ones I had cross polinated
last year. *I wanted to see what they would result in. *But now its
all gone including my seeds.

F@*# those damn bugs

Probably hornworms. The most rapidly destructive bugs I've ever seen for
tomatoes! The plants might recover. Spray them with BT!

Just got back in from watering my plants and getting some cucumbers,
tomatoes and lettuce for a salad. Found that 2 stalks of 1 and
another stalk of another of my tomatoe plants had their leaves eaten
also. I looked around the two plants, under leaves and all and could
find the culprit.

It is obvious that something has eaten the leaves and they really did
a number on my plants.

I also found three more of them litle green worms on the leaves of my
lettuce.

Argh!!!!!!

This time I clipped them in half with my shear.

I couldn't find the culprit smong my tomato plants.
