My garden is organic so cabbage worms don't get sprayed. They get picked off and squashed but that method doesn't find them all. This year I tried something to keep from having so many cabbage worms. When I harvested the garlic I chopped the tops into about 1 inch pieces and laid them around under the brocolli and cabbage plants. I also planted my tomatoes in the next row, up wind from the cabbage and brocolli row. The prevailing wind blows the tomato smell over the broc and cabbage. I have picked about 6 of those green worms off the plants, that's all I found. Yesterday I processed 5 heads of brocolli for the freezer and found NO cabbage worms. I am not sure what worked, maybe both things, but I will do them again next year.
