I sprayed my brassica plants with BT yesterday evening. Cabbage worms or something similar have been eating bok choi plants like they were in an all you can eat buffet. They didn't touch the collard plants at all.

I was up since 6:30 had a low blood sugar with DH.
He had had them at night, new wrinkle. I was able to get the bottle of dressing some down him.
Rained a small amount

I up-potted 15 basil seedlings and the six crocosmia seedlings that sprouted from seeds I saved last fall. I don't need 15 basil plants but I'll put them somewhere. I don't like to waste the little sprouts if I can help it and they should make good companion plants for something.

I decided to put all my starts outside on the back railing permanently now since the weather is warming up a little. Those plants need to get hardened off and used to real world conditions.

We have a good rain falling just now!

The news said our drought will be over with the atmospheric river falling next 3 days?

Something eats up all my bok choy as well... I've given up on growing it. It's too attractive to pests and bolts too easily.

I'm going to try bok choi again as a fall crop. Maybe those pests aren't around as much late in the season.
