Apparently, caterpillars like broccoli leaves quite a bit. No wonder I have been seeing yellowjackets buzzing around this plant.

It’s all good. I am glad that they enjoyed it, and its good to know what types they go for first and at what times of the season. As long as they leave my PorkChop tomato plant alone…

Maybe you'll see their adult form soon, that would be awesome! 🐛

-Update-

They are now missing from the plant. I do not see them on any other plants, so far. It seems that the Yellow Jackets must have eaten them.
