Growing Broccoli

Barb, Thank you for the tip about keeping Marigolds near your broccoli plants to mask their smell from Cabbage Moths. I have just started to notice a Cabbage moth hanging around my broccoli and cabbage plants that I grow in pots and I have found one or two green caterpillars on my plants as well. I'm heading off to get some Marigold plants in the morning.
