Thanks go to for the hornworm ID video that she posted in the comments of another post. In that vid, it showed tiny βgrenadesβ that were actually hornworm poop π π© and then how to seek and destroy! So, armed w that useful information, guess who found evidence of dinosaur-sized hornworms AND their eggs in her basil and tomatoes and peppers on this otherwise nice morning?! ππ»ββοΈπ€¦π»ββοΈπ
π»ββοΈππ€π€¬ No hornworms, mind you β just their poop, and poppy-seed sized eggs π₯π₯.
So, what am I gonna do?! Well, Iβm not just gonna come on here and just whine and complain. Nope! Tonight, Iβm gonna hit βem with my best shots:
π₯my new leaf spray that I made with homegrown lactic acid bacteria (LAB),
π₯Iβm gonna drench the soil with some πͺ±π© worm casting extract,
π₯and if Iβm feeling extra spicy, Iβll follow up with some BT spray for extra protection.
