Winter cabbages


Today we have dug over the patch where cabbage white butterflies massacred all our purple sprouting broccoli and sprouts plants a few weeks ago. We have now planted some winter cabbages that WILL NOT go the same way as their predecessors because this time we have added a net. We are very proud of the way it looks now it is finished but are slightly worried that a certain puppy will go charging through the net and bring it down. Just as we were hammering in the wooden posts to support the net a lone cabbage white butterfly flew overhead this omen spurred us on to get it finished so fingers crossed that it will stay up.

  2. The net looks good, but can you tell us how fine is the mesh? And does that moth get thru to the brassicas? Good luck!
