    Plants look good. Your bugs need leashes. What are they?

    That looks like a catapillar. BT spray or spinosad works well. I can't get the pic to enlarge without the flash causing the page to reload but I can't think of anything else it could be. But I can see it on the stem.

    Maybe my post was confusing. Lemme break it down: the pic refused to upload and so I couldn't make it larger to see.

    I saw his new pics but I don't know. Spinosad is an all round good killer of leaf biting insects so I would try that at night after the bees go to sleep.

    After much googling i found out it was a sharpshooter bug. Thanks for trying to help out. Couldnt find anything about them being harmful to weed.
