Deal With It

You know how you can purchase ladybugs by the bucket at some nurseries and hardware stores?

Does anyone know where you can buy a bucket of squash bugs sometime around July 15 next year?

Asking for a friend.

I'm sure if you did a search online you'd find something.

Either that, or I could start my own squash bug farm, with discreet third party delivery to competitors' patches, for an additional fee.

oh, didn't know that was whats going on... sad but I'm sure it happens.

I was taught, do the best you can, learn all winter, read everything you can, test and dial your soil in, figure out what you need, work your butt off come grow time and beat your competition come weigh off day.:)

I was taught to make money wherever it's legal, and when I turned 18, I would become a man, and have a Facebook account with only my name.

Everyone loves ant farms.

I'm going to find out how many people are dumb enough to purchase a Squash Bug Farm.

Hello, first million dollars.

That’s funny cause I recently bought an ant farm for the boys at Bass Pro. I think you’re on to something. I might try a vine borer breeding program, and make use of an untapped resource.

I always found that powdery mildew in a jar works well on patch tours

Baker's Man lives too far away. I'll just send him a box of rocks to polish in April, and he'll forget all about growing pumpkins.

All kidding aside, I would be surprised if someone HASN'T used a patch tour as an opportunity to introduce a hostile substance or insect.

Does anyone have a true story to share?
