terryd 8,469 Posted May 27, 2016 Report Share Posted May 27, 2016 I have them in 3 spots one on the flat they are starting to go and two on ridges that are well drained and one of the ridged beds is the picture and the other is not affected yet but I won't be holding me breath now lol. They are all from sets this year. The exact thing happened on the other plot last year but I thought I had it sussed this year with nice fertile ground and well dug shallots are holding there own but i can see the tips going white Quote Link to post Share on other sites

terryd 8,469 Posted May 27, 2016 Report Share Posted May 27, 2016 Looks very similar Allan but I don't get the leaves wilting as such and the they look more like they have been literally bitten. I will dissect one tomorrow for closer inspection Quote Link to post Share on other sites

LaraCroft 863 Posted June 1, 2016 Report Share Posted June 1, 2016 I'm loving terryd dog pics ! Dip does the same, sighs, lays down and waits for the work to be done. He is easily pacified by a carrot though - I suspect that 50% of the grown carrots are eaten by the dog, rather than me. Currently battling buttercups in the fields - the horse won't eat them. and they spread very quickly. A mix of spraying, cutting and plastic bag covering sections to kill them off is proving effective but very time consuming. 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
