Agree with Mum - aphids come in all colours (well, they don't actually but they certainly do reddish-pink!)

Sow
your seeds,
plant
your plants.
What's the difference? A couple of weeks or more when answering possible queries!
One of the best things about being an orang-utan is the fact that you don't lose your good looks as you get older

A weak washing up liquid and water solution usually does the trick, try to spray when the sun isn't on the plants - and repeat as required.
