You have to be a pretty easy going gardener to put up with this! There are three caterpillars on this cabbage that can be seen in the picture. There are several on the undersides of the leaves. I am growing this cabbage as a larval food source for the "Whites" The Whites include the Checkered White, the Cabbage White, and the Great Southern White. None of the larvae on this cabbage are in the White family, but nature has a way of telling you what it wants to do rather than the reverse. Hopefully I'll get some Whites before these little fellows eat the entire cabbage.
