As I prepared this post before vacation, I had the following thoughts. "Maybe this will be there year I get the timing right for a broccoli harvest. It is certainly the best looking start."
I had surrounded the bed with row cover to keep out rabbits and put down some sluggo, but I forgot one thing: cabbage worms!
I came home to this:
Because I planted the broccoli at the base of my okra, I could not easily cover them with row cover, as I should have done. Cabbage worms are easy to hand pick, but since I was gone over a week, they had free reign. Sigh!
