Our tomatoes are finally just coming into production here in eastern Ontario. Of course I was late getting them in, so have no one to blame but myself. We took about ten quarts of green beans off today - it was a lot of tipping, tailing and cutting, but the Missus is just blanching the last of them now.
I live in Maryland, too. Thankfully, the stink bugs were more interested in my sunflowers than tomatoes. My bean plants were less productive due to the Mexican Bean Beetles.
Sorry to hear about your bug problem. I have been seeing a few on our tomatoes, but luckily they decided to focus on my now defunct green bean bed. At least you have some other nice crops to make up for your lack of tomatoes!

ReplyDeleteI thought I was the only one with that many stink bugs!
ReplyDeleteOh dear....those darn stink bugs! I hate those things!
ReplyDeleteWell, you still have some nice beans and peppers in the garden to enjoy!
