Well, My first attempt at growing broccoli may very well be my last! All seemed well until I looked a little closer yesterday and all the plants were infested with some icky worm catterpillar thing! Yuck! I had no option but to pull all the plants and memorialize them in this blog post. Maybe I will look for a more resistant variety next season...

PS: I posted more picts in my albums so be sure to check that out :)
