We're heading out in a few minutes. That gives me just enough time to share the highlights of our day.
Caterpillars ate the cauliflower and broccoli in The C.F.O.'s garden. Naturally, they didn't touch the zucchini, which I can not eat. We need organic solutions a.s.a.p, if you please and thank-you-very-much!
Also, I made Disappearing Marshmallow Brownies.
That made everything better.
The only organic solution I know is to pick the buggers off by hand, but it doesn't work, It vexes the butterflies and you will find the number of cabbage moths increase exponentially with every one you kill.
Our solution was to dig it up and never plant them again.
Another one is to build a screened box to place over them so the moths can't get to the plants.
