Most of my vegetable plants are being eaten by bugs. Nearly all the tomatoes, quite a few of the beans, and one or two of the peppers have been affected. I sprinkled Sevin on the plants, so hopefully that will fix the problem. The basil has not been touched and neither has the zucchini, apparently the bugs don't like them.
Everything else is doing great. The Cleome plants are putting out seed pods, so I can start collecting seeds from them fairly soon. The wind has blown most of the petals off the Double Click Cosmos. I think the new blossoms should be a little more hardy. I planted it so late that it was blooming when I planted it.
