Tomato worm
I have a hydroponic grower in front of my garage sitting on concrete. Today,
I looked around there, and I see droppings of tomato horn worm. It surprised me because I go by there every day, and today was the first time I spotted it. Sitting on concrete, the droppings were very conspicuous. I started to search, and as usual, it was difficult to spot. I happened to spot it end on. I thought it was a thick shoot and investigated it more closely. It was about the size of my entire ring finger. How can they grow so fast? I once spotted one that had the diameter of a wood pencil. That is the smallest I had ever seen them. Bill |
