Hi Guys,

When i was digging the plot over yesterday i found a couple of vivid green curled up things that looked like caterpillars.

I have googled green caterpillars but cant find it and unfortunatly i did not have a camra with me.

Any ideas?

same thing's on the chinese leaves etc in the poly..they are easy to spot though, they fall off when I move the plant, don't know what they are  :)

I believe they are cabbage moth.  I was reading about them recently.  I've found lots over the past month.

urbandruid

I've found a few too.  They look like the top one in this picture:
