I have to send a shout to FG! Thanks for turning me on.......To Spinosad:D I have been picking around 30-40 cuc beetles daily out of my snap beans and potatoes, applied Spinosad and the 1st day found only 8, today, found only 2!!! WOOOT I am glad since if it hadn't worked so far, I'd be pulling out the hard stuff. Great stuff so far. Almost no more small grass hoppers, leaf miners are gone and see allot of beneficials still going strong:thumbsup:

Have to give Jimbo some love too:laughing: Loven me some soaker hose and weed barrier!

Record low set in 1903 broke this morning, it's 36 in Waco now, old record was 38. We are only a few days from becoming the driest start to a year ever recorded, which there are records going back almost two hundred years. HS

Like the song says:

There are day people and night people.

It's the night peoples job to get the day peoples money.

Dennis-- My guess is that it's far from the ideal working environment. Glad you're done there.
