What can I use to control clubroot in the soil?

Our Advice:

There are no chemicals you can use, but improving the drainage and adding lime to raise the soil pH above 7.5 will help. There are some vegetables that show some tolerance to clubroot, including Brussels sprout Crispus, cabbage Kilaxy, calabrese Trixie, cauliflower Clapton, kale Tall Green Curled, swede Invitation and Marian.
