I missed it, but I shared the information with my husband.
Our broccoli crop, and I don't know what variety it is--was eaten once by caterpillars, resulting in very lacy leaves--then, when it was recovering and a small head had formed on one, the caterpillars came back. My husband was removing them as fast as he could, but a tiny bit of broccoli, which he ate last night, is all he got.
Unless we can solve the caterpillar issue, I don't see broccoli as one of our future crops. I have suggested a "dead zone" around the outside of the long and narrow garden fence, so that the grass does not grow right up next to the enclosure, but that may not solve the problem. It's also why we haven't had a spinach crop. Another gardener told me that her kale was hit as well.
