insects/bugs on cabbage, and cauliflower?
Our first year attempting to growing them. Plants are huge, but getting eaten alive by something. Don’t see any grasshoppers this year in the area. Wife read on the internet to spray vinegar on the plants, that ‘burned’ the leaves in spots. TIA.

I tried to follow the science, but it was not there. I then followed the money, and that’s where I found the science.

Thanks, I see ‘Seven’ powder marketed in this area, the plants are just starting to set the ‘heads’. Will check the label next time at the store.

I use Seven when I have to you need to dust as soon as you see any bugs and keep dusting.if bugs get in the head and you let it keep growing theyll destroy your head and dusting when the heads are full wont help. If you have just a few dust early and put an old panty hose on them.
