I have seen the enemy and here it is....SVB! Saw first one in patch today around noon. Watched it, tried to catch it and it disappeared. Saw some random Cucs around too and I decided it was time to spray with insecticide tonight. I did and on the Spada plant there was a SVB, just sitting on a leaf. There was a stare down and then boom, it got a full stream of insecticide right between the eyes! That felt good. Also put more sand under pumpkins today. "Carl" has a surface split in him that developed today. I will reduce fertilizing and possibly watering for now. Captan was applied to wound. Also sprayed liquid fence around perimeter of patch tonight. Might get up early with fly swatter tomorrow and hunt some more SVBs.
