    I have radish in my tunnel and this week something has been knawing the top off of my radish. It looks to me like a mouse but do they like radishes?

    You will see the little teethmarks if its mice.
    Or a large hole if its a giant, summer slug.
    Pests galore!

    Just had an influx of rats in my garden right next to my radishes. As neighbours next door spent an entire day with a pressure washer after uncovering their expensive garden furniture and were still moving and clearing out their shed as it was getting dark I think we know where they came from! Washing everything just that little bit extra at the moment!

    On a good note, I seem to be almost alone in not having a flea beetle problem and therefore my mizuna is plentiful as is my rocket. I put it down to all the rain we’re having.
