Whiteflies on kale
Hello,
Whiteflies are on my kale!
Is there anything I can do to stop them?
I’ve read that companion planting helps – marigolds in between brassicas.
Also read that washing the kale with soapy water helps – has anyone tried this? Would I use hard soap or liquid?
The other suggestion is to add ladybirds to the kale site – maybe this is a good idea.
Would it be too late to cover with enviromesh as I assume that the leaves are already infected……
Any ideas/solution would be most appreciated!
