I don’t know how to say this… my purple sprouting broccoli (PSB to those in the know) have been violated in their own homes.
War on the cabbage white
I’d started them off in the little greenhouse so they could get good spurt on before they left the nest and got transferred off down the garden.
Checked at the weekend, and a cheeky little cabbage white has sneaked in – ignoring the complete patch of cabbages down the garden – and laid its eggs all over my little seedlings. The daily routine has now extended to catapillar watch – and some of the little critters are brilliant at the art of camoflauge and blending in.
I will now take no prisoners. War on the cabbage white. I will crush you and your sons and daughters with my bare hands if that’s what it takes… My PSB will again sleep soundly!
