    will tomatillo's and tomatoes cross pollinate?

    Well, it's my first time growning them and using them, I plan to make lots of fire roasted green salsa to can, and then of course some can go into chili verde along with some anaheims and jalepenos, and if there are any leftovers, I'll probably stick them in the freezer for mexican food uses...

    Hornworms

    I read somewhere that if you take a black light and go out at night, the worms will be easier to spot because the white dots will be highlighted... Don't know if it works or not, I haven't tried it yet!
