Cabbage worms need love too
Great explanations!
My cabbage just started germinating, this popped up right on time. Thanks for the info!💜
I knew about BT but cornmeal? That’s a game changer!
What do you recommend for stink bugs and caterpillars?
Very good ideas you have shared here! If one method won’t get them, another one certainly will!
I have a question about the herbs in oil. Are you using dried herbs? It looks like it. Do you think essential oils would be as effective?
BT is spray , what about neem oil , how to make spray from it ( I mean the proportion of other ingredients) . Thanks a lot
Aughhh…100 % awesome info! I love grow cabbage but stopped because of the cabbage worms! I am now gonna try this…see this is WHY I am a subscriber for life! Just brilliance. Thank you
Does anyone know if the food will take on the taste or smell like Neem oil? I hate that smell, and would not want my food to smell or taste like it.
Thanks you. I was wondering what was eating my cabbage. Looks just like that
Neem works great but i found out I was allergic to neem! No severe reactions, thankfully, but it was a little annoying being dizzy, and itchy, and not knowing why until my neighbor friend told me it might be the neem. Im going to try those other herbs you mentioned since i have them all growing!
❤
Good advice
Very good channel
Wow thanks so much
I read the study on BT this winter and it said that many Brassica species will intake the protein in BT and is stored in the leaves. The study was done with kale and broccoli seedlings so this year, I'm going to experiment by watering my brassica seedlings with it.
On another note, do you get flea beetles in GA? I'm in ND,and I believe they are attracted to the smell of damaged foliage.
How do you stop deers from eating the plants that will not harm the plants?
I found this channel so informative, then found out we’re in the same metro area so now I’m about to watch all of your videos 😂😂😂 tysm for sharing your knowledge for free. May you always be abundant! ✨💫
Can u throw down cornmeal before u see the cabbage worm?
If you grow cabbage in pots will you still have cabbage worms?
I watch lots of gardening vids but an I just really enjoy your videos
here in penna we put flour on our cabbages. same result. worms eat it and bloat.
I saw someone using decoy white butterflies. The moth is territorial and won't go to a plant that's already inhabited and they leave your cabbage alone.
I have a question. where does the cabbage worm come from
This is the most valuable account I’ve ever followed
Snails can do a lot of damage.
Thank you!
With all veggies that are only leaves (cabbage,lettuce, and spinach,…) after you put your seeds down, put a mosquito net over it. If it doesn't need a pollinator then no bugs need to be near it at all.
Fantastic summary of many options!!
You know your stuff. Thank you.
This is good information for those of us that don’t want to put chemicals on our gardens. What do you have for tomato horn worms and squash bugs?
I call you the plant doctor love your videos good advice
That's way better than using chemicals every pest has a counter that nature has for it's something that it doesn't like that'll make it go away. This is why i like these videos
Those caterpillars turns into beautiful black and blue color butterfly 🫵🏽🥹
Short and straight to the point with great advice and information… Thank you!!!
I heard that you can do water in spray bottle with orange peels squish them real good before you throw them in the spray bottle shake up the bottle and go to town on your plants with it
