Does anyone know that it isn't a smart idea to help a butterfly emerging from its cocoon?
Because it impairs its wings' growth - as good as dead.
One of the basil was looking really stuck, like someone trying to remove a shirt but the arms are stuck.
I gave it a few days, it was still stuck, so... last night, I sat down beside it, armed with a water spray to soften the shell and using a toothpick to pick it off.
Successful mission.
With casualties: I think I pulled off an equivalent to a human's hands.
I AM SO SORRY!!!
I really hope I did not just helped dig its grave.

The long beans are obviously overgrown and I suspect they have been pinching the nutrients from the marigold and tomato since I hardly see any but one defiant marigold.
This will be the last time I plant all the seeds together for nursing stage. It is quite obvious they are fighting where I can't see.
