cucumber beatles are here


List:
 
It seems early to me but in a patch of my friend and fellow PGPGA grower we spotted a mass of cucumber beetles that started this past weekend.  I thought they arrived around the middle of June last year.   I guess this weather has everything off schedule. We had put in a Rose 960, Papez 1020 and Emmons 1262 along with my 660 and 797 and a Hester 895.  They got hit with a bit of frost last week and now the beetles have arrived.  This surely is a fragile hobby.   I think it was the perfect year for me to put up my new hoop houses.   The 1061 Ciliberto and the 845 Nesbitt are looking fine.  Best wishes to all for a memorable 2002 season.
