... Or should I put it out of its misery and try again?
I've got a handful of different seed grown varieties. First they got attacked by whitefly. Then spider mites. Then leaf miners, thrips, who knows what else. ALL the bugs.
I soaked the plants in neem the other night, which seems to have controlled the critters.
But: the picture is of the plants that are the worst off. They're only about a foot high and most of the leaves are chewed off. Do you think it could bounce back? Or should it go gentle into that goodnight?
