Cabbage and Broccoli in January

January's frosty mornings and short day length are no match for the cold loving veggies like broccoli and cabbage.

Broccoli

This broccoli (below) has whiteflies. Time for some organic pest treatment, pyrethrin spray at dusk (so we don't hurt our honeybees that are out only during the day).

Yes, broccoli is worth all the time and effort and the long growing season - I've just put some in my Chinese stir-fry! Shame about the whitefly - I'm surprised to see them this time of year though!
