Title: Very 'Holy' Cabbages
Post by: Archiesmum on July 09, 2007, 19:57:51
I am very new to this, anyone able to tell me what has gone wrong? Cabbages look as though someone has gone over them with a hole puncher!

Mine have some holes

Even though the wet has reduced the cabbage white butterflies flying around I had to remove caterpillars from my Brussels and PSB on Friday, little green things very hard to find have a good look at your plants, they will be there somewhere.

pigeons, caterpillars, slugs and snails.  Gourmet food to those beasts!
