@charles_dowding: This is flea beetle damage, and many of you will be seeing it this year. 🌱 These radish were just 9 days old when planted, a little too young, so very tender — and that’s when flea beetles like them most. The good news is that once seedlings grow on, new leaves often come clear of damage. If your plants are still standing, give them time — they can recover. I’m also trying Thermo Crop as a cover, since I’d run out of mesh. Curious to see how it does. #fleabeetle #gardeningtips #radish #kohlrabi #gardeningadvice
