Hi,
Looking to identify the culprit here. I don't see any bugs on the leaf undersides, or eggs. I do see a lot (LOT) of ants (small, brownish-black) in the dirt. The radish bulbs aren't growing at all. (i never have good luck with radishes - i don't get it, i thought they were supposed to be easy to grow! oh well, i'll just eat the greens, if there's anything left). I am getting damage to other plants - sweet potato vine - but those are holes with eggs, see my other post - plus it's across the yard. Tomatoes, brussels sprouts, and peppers are untouched. Sweet pea shoots appear not to be bothered. There is some lesser damage to my cuke leaves, a few holes in my eggplant leaves, and some shredding or rip-looking damage to my okra. Obviously I don't know it's all the same culprit, so i'm including the most severe damage (basil, radishes, and chard) in this post. Many thanks.
