The damage:
The culprit:
Lots of cabbage white caterpillars and a solitary baby snail. Shame I don’t yet have any chooks to feed them to.
Actually although I have quite a few brassicas in the garden at the moment this is the only one with much damage. The cabbage white butterflies don’t seem to be as prolific this year. Either that or my attempts to get rid of their eggs, by regularly rubbing the underside of susceptible leaves, is working well.
Have you had problems with the butterflies this year?
