Growing Cabbage

View the Cabbage page

14 Apr 12 Faye (Australia - cool/mountain climate)
What is the most likely cause of holes (something eating) in my cabbage leaves in early stage (nursery seedlings in ground 4wks now) of growth and what is the most 'natural' way of fixing problem? I am new to veggie gardening in northern tasmania - we are about 400m high and reasonably cool climate since planted (some very cold days). In a raised bed with well prepared soil - planted next to beet and baby round carrots.
