lebanese cucumbers Posted 103 days ago I've just planted some new plants (about 4 leaves) and I'm struggling to keep them alive. They look like they are being eaten as they have holes in their leaves. One has already died. I have small tomato plants and they seem fine. I'm pretty sure it's not slugs or snails. Could it be earwigs as we have alot of them or is it more likely to be a disease type thing? |

RE: lebanese cucumbers Posted 102 days ago You might like to try a pest oil, i use eco pest oil on my citrus and veg plants and it works quite well. |

RE: lebanese cucumbers Posted 79 days ago thanks for checking me out. I've planted some more now and they are growing fine. I think the first lot were sick when I planted them and also, I have found earwigs on them late at night. I dusted them and they are getting bigger every day |
