Hi All

We have been collecting seeds from our System for several years and recently found weevils in Pea seeds.

Over 90% now not viable!

Have had to purchase seeds (Not happy Jan)

The weevils have infested our seeds prior to harvest.

Does anyone have a safe remedy for keeping the weevils at bay until the seeds are ready to harvest

without harming the fish?

Cover the entire plant with fruit fly netting until ready to harvest. Easier done with bush type than climbing peas!

Great

Had not thought of that

I retired 7 years ago and the brain as well!
