Yup, cabbages will need netting as soon as they go out!

After a terrible year not protecting my Brassicas last year I was only just considering the problem of hardening off my plants before planting this year. I am all set to build a 'cage' around said plants in my patch but arrrhhh I did not consider the issue of hardening before

There are a few cabbage white crysalis in my shed. I'm getting better at dispatching most of the beasties I find in my plot but I haven't yet been able to bring myself to do anything about these. Maybe today I will.

Must be the sunshine bringing them out
