Thats all the pics for now But I hope everyones season is doing well and there at least having fun. I am having fun hunting SVB and killing them. I did manage to find a big hole in one of the Frantz sidevines. It was short twisted side vine so I cut it off. I took a look and luckily nothing ate into the main vine. I took the vine apart and pulled out a big fat SVB grubs old enough to get ready to go into the soil again. They eat the Merit and spit it out and Laugh so beware all you who trust merit. I have applied it two times already both as a above spray and as a ground soak and there still alive and kicking. I have used triazide and the seem to drink it up like its koolaid. I am now in the process of just finding there holes and killing them on site. In the fall I am going to till and light the patch on fire then till while its still burning muhahaha any grubs in the ground I will kill thats how much I hate SVB's. I am going mad with this problem and it drives me nuts to see live healthy grubs in one of My all time best plants.I will keep applying the pesticides and hoping they go away and I wish everyone the greatest season ever and may you all forgive me for my ramblings and grow em big.
