another week passes without much done

Nothing like having a kid at home with a fever all week to hamper your plans.  And on the last full week of school no less!

Regardless, I'm finally coming to grips with the fact that some pest has totally decimated my swiss chard and beets.  Completely.

Insect damage? possible...

This is looking more like bites than insects

this is looking like a lost cause

Going to try and sow new rows next week and see what happens.  Row covers might be worth a shot, but the only problems is little rodents (if that's whats causing the damage) tend to hide under the row covers.  If that happens, you will hear me screaming in the next county - no joke.
