I'm hoping to see some responses in here as well, Becky. Granted this is only my first year trying to grow anything here in FL (moved from the Midwest), but had very poor results this year. Tomatoes, zucchini and cucumbers all looked like lace after some kind of bugs got them. And i never saw a bug on them ... couldn't figure it out. I think you have more perseverance that I do ... I've already said if this fall planting of tomatoes don't do better, then I'm done with them .. I can't imagine fighting all the pests and diseases for 5 years.
Here's what was left of my parsley after some yellow/black worms got to it.
