This email thread is one of the few things I've yet seen that makes me happy for a cold winter and a slow ramp-up of springtime temps.  As we watch the rest of the country bask in 60's and 70's, I guess I'll sit back and enjoy my 45F and spitting rain today.

With such a mild winter here ( Missouri ) the bug population is going to be explosive and early.  Already we've seen ticks,  not only do we need to keep up on the pests on our crops but also to watch for ourselves. So the battle begins.

Aphids started getting bad here last fall.  We have targeted both aphids and ants.  For the ants, we use DE.  For the aphids, I also have switched to neem and find the most critical thing is to get them right away and assume they are there!  Look closely all the time.  This is new for us.

The harlequins are never new, but I have not yet seen them.  Now I'll have to be on the lookout.  Oh dear I hate them.
