| It can be saved IMO. Keep spraying and rub off the aphids; perhaps you cna even cut off the infected areas. Also spray your other cabbage at the same time. |

| Just had another thought, usually the heart of the cabbage doesn't get affected anyway since the aphids can't easily get into the centre, so I reckon you will be OK. |

| Find some ladybird larvae and move these onto the infested plants. Squish as many aphids as you can. Keep at it.
