LOL you forgot the link but that is okay, our forum is still small enuff to find the new one on our own. I never found what ate my two day old seedlings one year either. But I replanted [it was lettuce] and they [whatever] left the second planting alone.

I look on the entire process of growing things as a bit of magic so hadn't thought of pursuing it further. One year I grew some pumpkin vines that had covered a 20'x20 area and then died over a single day. Squash vine borers had moved into the stems at the trunk and killed every vine. No more curcurbits for me. I surrender easily. and then i hadn't planned on eating the pumpkins, they were just for fun AND they took a LOT of water.

Here's a pic of my corner of the world during one of our cloud days, it never did rain but the clouds were great. ~~Blooms
