Topic: which feed for which crop?

Phil - when you do yours could you include warnings itf they kill friendlies.  There looks to be some very useful info on the US - French site but I do not want to kill my friendlies.

Redclanger,

What kills which friendlies????

Sorry - the second link on wivvles post gives details of fungicidal and insecticidal teas which I though may be useful as a last resort.  Trouble is I do not want to kill worms, ladybirds, ground beetles, hoverflies, bumble bees etc.  Just thought that if knew anything about that side of things it would be very useful.

PS - how high above soil level should the lip of my beer traps be to stop innocents such as ground beetles wandering in?
