whitefly attacking turnips
« on: July 10, 2010, 08:19:30 »
I thought they like brassicas best - and I thought turnip was 'roots' (sorry, newbie-ish).
Anyway, what organic treatment can I use - any tips much welcomed!

definitely says in my andi clevelly book under 'brassicas', 'turnips, swedes' - I've just looked. Perhaps they can be put in either bed

Turnips are definately a member of the brassica family.
