Consider covering the plant to block pests without using pesticides on edible plants. Search online for plastic cloche, glass cloche, crop cages, garden mesh netting, plant netting, ‘mesh protectors for plants’ and ‘mesh protectors for food.’ You will find many options to protect plants from insects or even small animals if growing plants outside. Check out humidity domes and grow tents, as well. They range from a few inches to several feet wide to cover seedlings to a large plant or several plants in an enclosure. You can regulate humidity levels in the larger humidity domes and in grow tents by the adjustable vents. 🪴🍀
