I have never seen so many caterpillars in one bed Terry, Sorry about the club root. Once my beds are empty the nets are taken off and left off until i am going to plant into that bed again. Blackberries and Raspberries look succulent. The old guy behind me has Street light covers that he uses on his brassicas, Not sure of they are the same as yours but they are conical in shape. Have a great week, love to you and Mrs K mate 💙❤

[@terrykingsallotmentgardening]

@Jimmy.Plot.41.b thank you so much mate.

[@sandram4526]

Lovely soft fruit harvest. All my brassica have been annihilated what the slugs didn't get the caterpillars did. I'm gutted because I did extra to share with family. I'm having a good year for peppers so swings and roundabouts comes to mind. Thanks Terry and take care

[@terrykingsallotmentgardening]

@sandram4526 my catterpillers are still active and still picking them off my brussel sprouts.

[@terrykingsallotmentgardening]

@christinebrooks6364 didn't cover them, but I did have other priorities so not too worried.

[@hoosierpioneer]

About a year ago I told you I hadn't found a toilet brush that fit my drill. I think I finally found one I may need to shave it down a bit to fit. Can't wait to try this trick I learned from you!

The copper wire pot scrubbers would possibly stretch around those lamp covers and they seem to work around my small pots.

[@terrykingsallotmentgardening]

@ibrstellar1080 definitely worth a try .

[@helenstewart2085]

In 40 years of growing brassicas have never had club root, listened to the older men that I worked with when doing my Apprenticeship in Horticulture and Gardening. Rotation, Rotation, Rotation. Do a four year rotation, been no dig for over 32 years.

[@terrykingsallotmentgardening]

@@helenstewart2085 definitely won't have brassicas in that bed for 5 years and will treat with my garlic liquid before covering for the winter.

[@kelvinbrooks3785]

I had my cabbages, caulis and kohl rabi under mesh this year, kept the flea beetles off, plants performed amazingly, then somehow the 'whites' got in, ended up with stripy caterpillars and green ones too! No idea how they managed it, so collected them up and popped them onto some spares I'd thrown in around the plot, they've enjoyed demolishing those plants, birds have had a few to eat, but nature is preserved!

[@terrykingsallotmentgardening]

@kelvinbrooks3785 so very true, but not on my brassicas, still picking them of.......🤣.

[@LorraineG123]

You have just reminded me,I forgot to cover back up my Brussels sprouts. Mot of my cauliflowers,and broccoli bolted ,I think the heat and rain mixed didn't help. Sorry yours were a banquet for them. Thank you re educating us about the clubroot. I didn't see it,heard but not seen. So sorry Terry.

[@terrykingsallotmentgardening]

@@LorraineG123 if the catterpillers hadn't got them, they would have reached maturity even with clubroot.

@terrykingsallotmentgardening thank you Terry.

[@Canna1d]

My cabbages look like yours. Clearing off caterpillars is a daily job for me. Fabulous berry harvest there.

[@terrykingsallotmentgardening]

Oh no Terry 😮 but you have got some great finds 😂 the heat here hasn’t been kind to my brassicas either (covered or not) 🤬and pumpkins are just starting to kick off now.

Such gorgeous berry abundance Terry. Those caterpillars gave me the Willie's 😮. I've been hit hard with them this year also, but as I don't cover, I believe my many robin's in the bed eat the worms a bit.

[@terrykingsallotmentgardening]

@FreeYourMindArt yes and trapping them within a netted cage can be exactly the same as what I have now.

I have a poly brasica bed, with my onions, coriander, and.french marigold to try and disguise the scent. The sides are trampoline black very fine mesh and top is bird mesh. I also planted several cabbages and nasturtium in unnetted beds / pots as sacrificial plants, the 1st flush of nasturtiums and sac brassicas have been almost annialated but (touch wood) im only dealing with snail and slug damage in the bed

[@bewoodford2807]

Lots of people use council recycled green waste and I must admit it horrifies me as they can have no idea what it contains. even if heat treated i am not sure it would get rid of weedkiller and pesticide residues, although it should remove disease and spores etc. It is so tempting just to feast on fruits, peas etc growing on the allotment, with no washing facilities. So tasty straight from the plant. I must admit to being guilty too. Your raspberries are looking amazing. So delicious. Mine haven't fruited yet- I have not had time to water them. Happy gardening 🙂

[@terrykingsallotmentgardening]

Hi Terry. Always think outside the box with blinds and fire grates. Our boiler has been replaced, and I made sure I got the water tank for a potential carrot bed. Boysoboys, your caterpillar population. I bet you're going to keep a close eye on your brussels. Club root. Yep, I'm sure I'd rather make my own compost than possibly import any diseases.
