Hi, Everybody,
New Zealanders may want to start checking for cabbage loopers about now. I just found my first ones of the season. They are caterpillars, about one and a half cm long, almost exactly the same shade of light green as a broccoli stalk. They go after broccoli, cauliflower, and relatives, and may hide right under/inside the head, of on the underside of leaves. They also may make lots of holes in the leaves. I tried washing, but they are sticky, and had to be picked off by hand. I will apply Spinosad (Yates "Success" brand), tomorrow (or whenever it finally stops raining.) -- Get Credit Where Credit Is Due http://www.cardreport.com/ Credit Tools, Reference, and Forum |
