I'm new to growing brassicas and have just had my first failure and so early on in the season!!
Yesterday I dutifully went round and put cabbage collars on all my brassicas- red cabbage, kale and cauliflowers. Today I went out and I was to late!! Three of my kale were droopy, pulled them out- no root.
I'm really worried now that they are all going to die.
I've also got swede (right next to the kale) which are still looking really healthy but not to sure if I can/ should protect them? If I put some fleece down now will I be trapping any possible bugs in the soil?
Also do they go for Kohl Rabi?
So any tips on protecting the swedes? Do you think I willl lose the rest? And my poor Kohl Rabi!
It's a sad evening.
On the plus side the rabbits really enjoyed the young kale :/
