Production planning estimate
Plan around small border planting per 4 sq ft
No yard, or no dirt garden to work with? This one can also be grown hydroponically, often in far less space, right on a porch, balcony, or windowsill.
A starting estimate is 1 small border planting per 4 sq ft. That means one trap planting is a reasonable first unit to plan for, then adjust for your climate, practices, and household demand.

Planning note: A dead-end trap crop for harlequin bugs near brassicas. The pests are drawn to it but cannot complete their life cycle there. Pull and destroy the planting once it is covered.
