What causes the yellowing of leaves on a green corn plant grown in reduced light for a period of time?

The yellowing of leaves on a corn plant grown in reduced light for a period of time is often due to a lack of chlorophyll production, which is essential for the plant to photosynthesize and produce energy. Reduced light exposure can hinder this process, leading to yellow leaves. To address this issue, increasing light exposure or providing supplemental nutrients can help the plant regain its green color.

What do hawk moth caterpillars eat?

The hawk moth caterpillars that we had in our backyard were the tomato eating kind. They are small green inch worms at first and then grow into 3-4 inch long squishy green caterpillars with yellow and black stripes, eye spots on their sides and a big hook on their tails. They ate our tomato plant leaves and sometimes the green tomatoes too. When they had grown large enough, they burrowed into soil and just over a month later emerged as moths :)
