A few quick questions about the fall garden...

What bug is this?? Found it last night on one of the cherry tomato plant stems almost out at the top. About 2 1/2" long and produce almost a rabbit-like pellet. Have seen an amount that would lead me to suspect more than one of these in the garden. What the heck is it?? What organic pesticide to get 'em??

I was able to purchase some seeds that I was going to use for next year, but with some of the problems we've had this summer so far, we're going to take out some junky non-producers and prepare a fall garden. Plan on germinating some Beefsteak tomatoes, maybe some Iceberg lettuce, and some other stuff. How long should I have the seeds out of the freezer before I attempt to plant them in the little greenhouses to get them going??

Don, PLZ show up Saturday morning.... I need some RAIN!!!!
