Tomatoville® Gardening Forums - View Single Post - Photos of bugs in my south Florida garden

I'm in Lee County, near the Caloosahatchie River and the Gulf. Lovely breezes 90% of the time (to hide the fact the sun is scorching. lol)

As for Florida and bugs...we do have bugs...lots of bugs! So, I'll make certain to photograph any that I see from now on. I am a lousy photographer (and I'm not being modest here) so I may not be successful in actually getting any that are good enough to post. (One would think it's all a matter of pointing the camera and clicking, but I can prove that is not so.

)

And, thanks for the reminder about fungal diseases. I've yet to start the baking soda spray, but planned to do so this year before all my squash/cukes/melons/whatevers died like they have EVERY year for me. (I've yet to successfully grow a summer squash down here.)
