Anthony and Angela Tringham, who grow heirloom tomatoes commercially under the brand Curious Croppers, have two main greenhouses in Clevedon, Auckland, where they produce their fruit. "I meant to put tobacco plants and engytatus in the other greenhouse too, but never got around to it," Anthony says. "And that's the greenhouse where I have now had a whitefly explosion. But when I pulled out the tomatoes last year, I left the tobacco plants in one greenhouse, and the engytatus continued to breed on them all winter. And what I have harvested from that greenhouse this year, that's the cleanest crop I have ever grown.
