After cleaning out the onion bed a couple of days ago, I've now planted my broccoli and cauliflower starts in that bed. I zip-tied two metal hoops together to make larger ones. Then I covered it with bird netting, hoping to keep out the cabbage butterflies, and then shade cloth.
I also moved all the broccoli that I started from seeds a couple of weeks ago into 4" pots. I have 24 pots. About 8 of them are sprouting broccoli. The rest is a blend of varieties. I may have overdone it.
Update:
Yesterday I found a white butterfly inside the netting. So now it is covered entirely in the shade cloth.
