If you plant things in a garden infected with RKN that RKN does not like - would they eventually starve? You could plant Elbon Cereal Rye in the winter along with Mustard Greens (Already have the seeds) and then in spring, plant varieties of vegetables that RKN does not like.
My idea is to keep planting things that RKN is repulsed to. I have already grown a lot of tomato varieties - it's time to grow some different things.
Looks like Asparagus gets a big thumbs up. What other veges repulse RKN is my next question?

Hot Peppers; but for how long I don't know. I did notice over the years that when planting tomatoes after hot peppers that my RKN problems were less that year than usual in those spots.
