Last weeks thread here

Welcome to this week’s casual kōrero thread!

This post will be pinned in this community so you can always find it, and will stay for about a week until replaced by the next one.

It’s for talking about anything that might not justify a full post. For example:

  • Something interesting that happened to you
  • Something humourous that happened to you
  • Something frustrating that happened to you
  • A quick question
  • A request for recommendations
  • Pictures of your pet
  • A picture of a cloud that kind of looks like an elephant
  • Anything else, there are no rules (except the rule)

So how’s it going?

Cloches are neat! Way fewer pests as far as I can see.

I hardly ever see cabbage whites anymore. I know its sacrilege but I kind of miss them.

Interesting which part of the country are you in? I see enough every summer and if I plant any brassicas, they get covered in eggs during the warmer months. A few of my kale plants have already been shredded by their caterpillars and they were only planted a month ago.

I'm up north but also hang out in the waikato. When I was a kid there were a lot more butterfies in general. The little Austrslian blues used to go around in big flocks where I grew up.

I guess you're in a better position to assess the damage though!
