These were cucumbers!  But now.... oh, the pain!  CUTWORMS........DIE!!!! 

Today I will be fashioning paper collars laced with diatemacious earth.  Does anyone know what other plants I need to protect (are succeptable to cutworms)?

Yeah, my cukes looked the same, as well as my beans and tomatoes, but for a different reason. DEER. I've never actually wanted to shoot an animal before this, but I think we've got our problem figured out.

I don't know what to do with cutworms....sorry! Little birdies and bunnies can do the same thing to your tender plants.

Tomatoes, peppers, peas and bean are all susceptible to cutworms. I'm sooo sorry!
