Swedes

[Mrs Ava]

Never had much in the way of luck with swedes, but this year have 2 lovely half rows of swede seedlings, on their 3 true leaves, however, the new tender leaves are SMOTHERED in greenfly!  What to do?  Spray?  Derris?? Pull them up and give up???

Garlic spray - they hate it:

blend a few cloves of garlic with 2 pts of water.  let it sit for several hours.  strain and spray.
