This hornworm on my tomatoes has been parasitized by a braconid wasp. The wasp lays its eggs under its skin. The larvae eat the caterpillar’s insides, eventually emerging to spin little cocoons. When the wasps hatch, they protect your tomatoes from more hungry hornworms, so leave them be!

Today in the archives: bringing this ridiculous machine from the 1970s back to life in order to read files stored in an obscure and awkward format. Incredible that it still works 🤯 thanks to @archive.org who had the manual scanned for us to refer to!

Tomatoes are looking good after being moved off the deck and back due to repairs. Lots of fruit on all plants, and the sungolds are ripe enough to eat now. Yum!
