Don’t let cabbage bloopers haunt your garden this Halloween season! 🐛👻 These squishy, light green caterpillars can quickly become pests on your Brassicas (cabbage, broccoli, cauliflower, brussels sprouts, kale, etc.) Tips for prevention: 1. go outside in the early morning and look on the bottoms of leaves and on the main/central veins where they like to hang out. 2. Pick them off and put them in the compost or feed them to your chickens. 3. If you have too many of them to pick off by hand, you may consider spraying and OMRI certified organic caterpillar killer (we sell the safer brand here at the farm). #gardeningtips #gardenadvice #organicgarden
