    Fantastic! I found a tomato hornworm in my own garden covered in cocoons and at first I was grossed out because I didn’t know what was happening to it but after doing some quick research I am very happy to see it! Good luck with your tomatoes.

About Author

I've been an avid gardener most of my life and I've always had an interest in organic gardening. My parents always had gardens when I was a child and while I can't say that no chemicals were used, most products and methods used to maintain the garden were natural. Now that I have a garden of my own (past 7 years) I've gone strictly organic. This blog is my attempt to share Organic Gardening Tips with you.
