I also had hard tomatoes in the past ...

Here this phenomenon no longer occurs.

But I don't know what it was due to: variety? watering? Or other?

Why in sachets? I burst them on the spot with latex gloves.

Oh yes okay. I would never have thought of doing this with tomatoes! For the photo I remember well, it was pears, right?
Currently, after several passages of extermination, forgiveness of systematic pest control and a little watering, I do not see any more ... to watch.

Right, it was on pears.

Ah if I ever have a problem like this here believe me that I don't hesitate for a second to test the thing.

Anyway whatever happens next season I will test it just out of curiosity.

At our level close protection on certain vegetables seems playable without too much work

Anyway that's it or you lose all or a lot so ...

You're reading my mind Image.

Unless there is a miracle, I will make a direct seeding ... protected and others in buckets for safety.

I don't know if a simple bird net would be enough which would be a negligible investment, what do you think?

small butterflies could pass, but would they wreak as much havoc as the cabbage white

and next year it's a massive return of flowers in the amenity part of the vegetable patch, this year I had daisies and poppies on the lawn, I hope it will last, weed killer is now prohibited in this part, remains all the same areas to be treated as stones, but manual cleaning should be able to limit its use on this side there too

Puts lavender in the pebbles ...

For cabbage you should be able to put a veil or something like that.
A light "P" or mosquito net but I don't know if it's possible for the life of the plant.

for around 20 € you have an insect net guaranteed for 5 years that you just have to put on the crops, so not too much work it's all good
