That is a very nice set up brownrex, and I think I have seen that photo or something similar in another thread. I tried to save a step and used a frost blanket but the plants didn't seem to be heading so I switched to this insect fabric. I switched to tulle after the fabric was shredded by hail. There were times where everything blew off, hence the invasion of the white butterfly.
I have transplants started and after the heatwave passes they'll be planted about 10 feet from the old cabbage row. At what point to I begin the Btk application? I never saw the caterpillars, especially under the solid white fabric. I still have more of the roll to use up for these fall plantings.
