Well after a possitive start to these chard plants growing they are going downhill. I have cut some leaves but they don't seem to be growing back. I have enviromesh on them but flea beetle seems to be still making holes in them. Some leaves are yellowing. I had to cut them hard back as so mcu damage from small slugs too.
