We planted some herbal leys 2 years ago....like a lot
I was keener on plantain than chicory as I think it will survive shorter rotations with sheep better....plantain had been looking very healthy this March...then spotted a lot of holes appearing across the plantain leaves, looking similar to flea beetle on brassicas. Didn't have time to take any photos as before I knew it, all the plantain disappeared
Does flea beetle or an equivolent pest attack Plantain? Sadly I don't think for us it's worth including in mixes if so
