Only Two Problems With Growing Cabbages

Right now I am growing cabbages, we rely on them for our winter salads in Bulgaria. They aren’t too difficult to grow, but getting past the seedling stage is the biggest problem and there are two reasons for that.

Regular watering is essential when planting out the seedlings, this really ensures they get a good steady grow in the summer heat and are never allowed to dry out. They need to be watered once a day on really hot spells but every two or three days will do. Another point is to not over-water as mould can set in.

The other major factor that prevents successful cabbages is butterflies and caterpillars. Butterflies are lovely to watch flittering around the crop but they lay their eggs and it is no long before your cabbage seedlings are nothing more than a skeleton.

Butterflies are fantastically beautiful especially with the many varieties that we get here in Bulgaria, but the most common butterfly is the aptly named cabbage white. Freshly planted tender cabbages are their favourite place for cabbage white butterflies and who can blame them in the heat of the summer when most tings are being harvested or has been harvested, the cabbage is the most green crop around and a magnet to them.

This is all very well but on a daily basis a check on every single cabbage needs to be made and any caterpillars seen need to be crushed immediately before they can inflict major damage and the loss of the crop. There is no room for sentiment here as it is a choice between the caterpillars and butterflies or winter food. We did not plant out cabbages for any other reason other then the latter. We don’t bother with chemicals it cost money and it’s not something we like doing form a health point of view. Five minutes a day squashing caterpillars is good enough.

Other than these two problems the cabbages will give a good crop providing us salad throughout the winter as we will gather them all up in November and store them in barrels of salted water. Can’t wait!

Learn To Play An Instrument - You'll Never Regret It

There is something in this world that is such a pleasure to possess and it is increasing rare for people to have now with money so tight and education neglecting the arts. Music is one of the most wonderful pleasure in life it is such a pity that many miss out because of this. Playing an instrument well is difficult. It needs time, dedication and expert tuition for the correct technique. If ever you get the chance to learn whether you are a parent with children or and adult getting the right instrument is a complicated task. You need to know quite a bit about the instrument you are buying, where to buy it and what to look out for.

Buying a clarinet for example is a minefield and salespersons know straight away whether you've done any research and know what you're looking for. As a musician myself I know quite a few people who wished they had taken me along with them when buying, as the salespeople will take advantage of your lack of knowledge.

ShopWiki is a unique online shopping site and stands alone form other traditional shopping sites, which only show you stores that they have a financial reward for them. ShopWiki doesn’t do this and finding a clarinet on the site you will get information about the instrument and of course more products from more stores, which means better deals and savings.

You will never regret starting up playing an instrument and a clarinet is a good choice if you have learnt the recorder at school. Choosing you instrument through ShopWiki is also something you will never regret.
