31/ kale and fennel
In previous years, I would net all of my kale and fennel to protect from butterflies but I don’t have time anymore, so I just leave it to get chewed down by butterflies. When temps get cooler and the butterflies are finished for the season, that’s when I harvest fennel and kale. I use regular compost for fertilizer and grow beans in the same bed. I also grow kale in pots with tropical trees. Both plants reseed themselves, they are no-effort plants. Do ok in storms.
