A new problem showed up this year on my onions. I noticed we were getting a lot of these curled leaves coming out and the plants were stunted and not growing properly. I pulled out a root and inside the onion there are these little brown bugs. eating the onion. I believe they are allium leaf miners. A new pest to show up on the scene. Last year was the first year they were documented in Connecticut. How did they find my garden so quickly? I may have to call the whole onion crop a loss, as most of them are showing some level of damage. Failures occur all the time in the garden even if you are an experienced gardener.
