tsubasahomeI started noticing weird little circular scars on both my Anne and Caroline raspberries a few weeks ago, and the tops of the canes were dying...I thought they might have the funk, since it's been very wet and humid, but apparently, they have cane borers! I had to lop the tops off and put them in the garbage. A lot of sources tell you to kill them with fire, but I'm not quite ready to start a bonfire in my backyard. I hope nobody notices that we're using up a lot of garbage bags...
I actually saw two cane borers mating on Nikko Blue. I had no idea what the bastards were then. I hope they don't mind me destroying their offspring!
In other news, I'm almost done with Chapter 14 of my book. I wound up having to completely change the end, and cut out one scene, move it to Chapter 15, and change the characters involved.
