I'm no help on the corn issues. I haven't grown it in years, and mine was always buggy even then.

I didn't do a very good job of getting a variety of summer veggies going so it's been a lot of broccoli, a lot of squash, repeat, repeat, a few cucumbers and a handful of beans, more broccoli, squash..... And now finally tomatoes and peppers!<br /><br />My corn has no silk either, but it's definitely not earwigs, it's rodents and they don't just eat the silk, that's just the appetizer.Michellehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07812702328134261533noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-313396449380749054.post-38164621711174091292017-09-11T10:04:58.908-04:002017-09-11T10:04:58.908-04:00I can't grow beets because rabbits mow down th...I can't grow beets because rabbits mow down the leaves. Seems like everything likes to eat them. Nice yield of what looks like Bride eggplant, mine are long since gone. I wonder if a combination of insecticidal soap and oil would be effective against the corn earwigs?gardenvariety-hoosierhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02823437033502199023noreply@blogger.com
