Black worm like insects I've never seen
On our tomatoes and in our compost we are discovering thin black "worms" with pointed head and tails who are eating the tomatoes and some of the unrolled vegetables in our compost. They are solid black, shiny and small. No longer than 1/2 inch.

Tree health
We are noticing a funny indentation on one side of this tree as well sap now leaking out the side and we’re hoping you could tell us if that meant the tree was unhealthy or diseased. The rest of the tree is in great shape. Also we have this tall stalky plant all over our bank and we’re hoping to identify it so we can get rid of it

Clam chowder base
I am going to pressure can clam chowder base. The recipe (XTNS svc website) indicates using salt pork in the base, but if bacon is used it should be added before serving. I would prefer to use bacon in my recipe (no salt pork), but would like to sear it and include it in the canning process. Is there any reason I shouldn't proceed this way?

I noticed, after the water bath, that I had overfilled a jar of applesauce.It seems to have sealed but has sauce on outside of jar. The process was 2 weeks ago. Is it still okay to eat and if so should I keep it in the frig. Till I open it?

When to Prune Trees
When is the best time to prune trees on the north coast? Seaside/Astoria area. We have shore pines, Chinese maples and Japanese cedars that need trimming to remove dead branches and raise canopy.
