Uggh I was rearranging some container plants yesterday... I had moved a container of cabbage plants in front of my raised bed of tomatoes...

I didn't think about the fact that earlier I had pulled out a full cabbage that was being eaten by small catepillars... I had cleared out the worms on the other cabbages but still it only takes one.

I have seen baby horn worms and they didn't look like them but they could have just been really small baby horn worms... AAAAAGGG... first thing tomorow I guess I am getting out the bt.

Hornworms go to tomatoes. Cabbage gets other kinds, most often imported cabbage worm.

Both can be killed with Bt. But Jean and Kevin are right. They won't attack your tomatoes.
