I have gotten reports from flower growers of an inundation of thrips into their flower crop in the last week or so. I know, I know flowers are not vegetables, but many of the Flower thrips species that get into flowers will get into and on vegetables. Thrips are tiny, thin yellowish-orange insects the size of metal filings with fringed wings.
