I have planted a brassica mix the past few years as part of the LC rotation. Have had great results. This year the brassicas were off to a great start and then large spots seemed to melt away to nothing. I finally took a closer look and think an insect is defoliating the plants and causing them to die. Poked around on the internet and it seems to be flea beetle. Looks like I can use malathion like I have before in alfalfa. Has anyone else had experience with this bug in brassicas? Any suggestions or advice? I wonder if this will be a problem every year now or random years. Thanks
