Winter is coming! Preparing our crops

So, summer is almost dead and it's time to plant the winter crops, some lettuce, chards, lombards, cabbage, cauliflower, and some more.

By this time, after planting them it's easy that cabbage worms (Pieris rapae) appears, beacuse plants are soft and tender for them. We have to be aware of that and kill them manually. If they become a problem you can use macerate cabbage leaves (4 leaves cutted in small pieces for every 5 litters).
You have to macerate it for one day, after that take off the leaves  and aply the water to the plants, with that what you get it's that the leaves have a bad smell, that the worms hate it.

What are you planning to plant this winter?
Cheers.
V.
