Horrors! Here in one of the colder areas of Zone 5, I saw a
cabbage butterfly today. May 4. I didn't think they'd show
up until much later.

I hurriedly covered my brassicas with floating row cover - I
hope this works. I don't see how it can fail, actually.

The row cover is fairly expensive.

The next time I get over to Wal-Mart (fabric department),
I'll see how much nylon net costs per yard - that might be a
cheaper way to go.
