I had been noticing that the ground cherry plants still look healthy and strong after having noticed aphids on the ground cherry plants on July 4th. I also noticed some lady bug larvae on the ground cherries recently.
Well today I noticed that the inside of some of the husks look dirty -- you can see it through from the outside of the husk. Opened one up and... aphid poop and some aphids (mostly deceased?)!!
Sigh!!
They're in a bunch of husks, but a bunch of husks look fine.
The good thing is that the cherries inside the affected husks actually look fine. So, maybe will just need to give them a good rinse, rather than chuck all of the affected husks.
