Did a bit more research, turns out it’s called leek moth. That’s the larvae we have on the garlic

Perhaps I’ll just take a walk through my patch and kill all the little suckers.

I just picked up the BTK spray and sprayed the garlic, spraying onions to be safe. Spray the buggers!!!

Try some Castile soap (dr.bronners), and red chili powder or chili powder oil and it keeps buggers off, mix with water and it’s cool for plants too 🫶🫶✌️

Atta boy.

I just ran through my garden and squished everything i found. Removed a few scapes. But gonna try it this way. If i notice more Tomorrow than today. The spray will be bought.

Let me know how it works out

Hey dude.

Wondering how you made out with your garlic so far?

I didn’t do anything to mine asides from hand squishing and removing manually that day we bounced off each other.

I hadn’t been back since. And now taking a look.

The leek moths are still there. But not as bad as it could be. 75% of my crop have scapes

Mornin☕️

I actually squished all that I could find, then sprayed with the btk and then covered the garlic and all the onions with a mesh.

I actually just cut all the scapes off yesterday. 🤙🏼

Would you happen to know what these are? I planted a row of kale, but these 2 both started growing also. One root is like a yellow/white and the other is a purple tone.

Nicely done. Just about to cut my scapes this morning.

Looks like you got some seeds mixed in. Bonus turnip? Or something similar it looks like.

That’s exactly what I was thinking, wonder if it’s a turnip?
