I noticed cut worms on my tomato plants this morning ... I plucked four off of three different plants. We were gone for four days, and this is the first I've noticed them. I see the brown trial running down the stems of one plant and I have tell tale cut worm "poop" on the ground and in the pot.
We had these last year, and I thought I had taken measures this year to make sure they left my plants alone ...
Other than plucking them off, any suggestions? I don't want to use any chemicals on the plants.
Also, does anybody know if the "poop" leads to anything - they aren't secretely passing eggs or larva or something, are they? I'd hate to think that this is an endless loop ...
Thanks in advance!
