I love cabbage. I've never grown it before but this year will be trying it.

Auntie! Put a floating row cover over it! I've tried to grow cabbage the last two years and the blasted cabbage moths got them both times. They got nice and big but they were all full of holes from the larvae eating them. You know the cabbage moths? Those little white "butterflies?" I got a floating row cover to put over my cabbage this year. I've heard that's the only way to keep the moths off the cabbage without drenching them in pesticide.

No offense, but I feel very strongly about that. I guess I just don't believe in chemicals and have never used them even when I did acres of extensive market gardening. I have never used any fancy covers, either. I strongly believe in the power of fire to clean and cleanse the garden each season so maybe that is why I don't have such a problem with insects as some people seem to. Admittedly, I may have to peel off a few more outer leaves, but the only thing I have ever done that seems to work...I don't ever plant all mine in the same row or section. I just intersperce them here and there. It seems to make it harder for the insects to devour the entire crop that way. Sometimes, picking them early instead of waiting until they are fully mature will foil the insects also, so in the long run you actually get more useable product, but what do I know...Actually, that is same method I se for most everything even green beans to help ward off grasshoppers. Plant them all together, they'll eat them all, for sure.  Deb |

I'm trying to stay away from spraying, too, go see my post on the poultry forum about Guinea hens... This thread is drifting badly - Sorry Auntie! It's my fault!  ~Lannie |
