What's the current 'green' way of controlling carrot fly.


I've also bought a sheet of that enviromesh stuff, but I'll probably
use that on brassicas.


I too have been thinking about investing in some Enviromesh for my
sprouts to keep Cabbage Moths and Small Cabbage Whites off.
Is it soft and "drape-able" like say curtain netting, or is it more
stiffish (if that's a word).

pp.


Mine is stiffish. I put water pipe and electric ducting made into a U
then place the mesh over that.
