nets and cabbage white butterflies.

Can't identify that mould? Got a great tip for keeping slugs at bay? Suggestions for organic weed control? Post them here...

A little idea I would like to share with you all.... Someone I knew was throwing out their old gazebo as the fabric had torn. I acquired the frame and set it up as a portable brassica cage... I have now aquired a second redundant frame.

This has worked extremely well and I will be seeking more frames in the 'close' season

What a good idea. I was trying to think of how I could build a large enough netted cage to put over my brussel sprouts. This is ideal. Now all I have to do is find someone with an old gazebo they dont want. Any offers?

Try Asda, Homebase, B & Q....they tend to skip any damaged returns :wink:

It is a brilliant idea. The trouble is I can now see Seedling and I round the back of the retail park like a pair of skip monkeys! :lol:
