SLUG-O

We are quite sure that the slugs are responsible for all of our bean damage. They are everywhere! I read somewhere that Marigolds attract them...so perhaps it was not a smart move to plant so many of those. I picked a slug off of one of the squash seedlings and noticed the damage is just like with the beans – it looks like the whole leaf just disintegrated. That is just want happens with the beans. Kevin is going to string trim the perimeter, and I think this weekend I will place a few trays of beer around in hopes they will all drown. It has been so wet here lately with more rain to come. If we ever get sunshine it looks like I will be replanting beans for the 2nd time.

In other news – still no basil – what is up with that?
