Knew the cucumber beetles would show up at some point, but didn't figure it would be during a rainstorm. Treated the root area when planting with some systemic insecticide but didn't have time to absorb before the attack. Didn't apply foliar because figure the rain that was coming right after planting would wash off before it could absorb. Either way quite a bit of damage in a short order. Plants fully treated now but hopefully they're not infected and a ticking time bomb for YVD as we've experienced the past few years. Pictured is the 2517 Haist which had the worst damage of the 3 AG's.
