    I started off mixed leaves in the greenhouse and then put them out in clumps in the garden. I noticed this morning that they had all been heavily damaged - they have been fine for over a week! It's not slugs/snails and I thought vine weevil normally attacked the edges. I can't see any sign of the critters who have done it. Any ideas please for the next set I start growing? Damage.jpg

    Looks like flea beetle damage
