Rubarb leaf tea.
« on: June 17, 2011, 07:54:56 »
Has anybody any comments on using rubarb leaf tea for detering cabage white fly on greens.  Is it safe as I understood that you should not eat rubarb leaves. Does it work.  :-\

I used it last year & the year before & it worked well. I added organic soap flakes too as that was the recipe I had.
