Root maggots are a concern when growing onions and radishes. I used to use a maggot powder (carbaryl is what I think the chemical was) placed in the rows with the seeds. Apparently, here in BC, it is no longer available. Do any of you farmer/gardening type people to the east have access to this stuff?
The people at the green houses tell me about crushed rhubarb leaves, wood ash, and diatomaceous earth. Diatomacious earth didn't work last year, and I can't really see the others working that well either.
