Default Growing cabbages - success !

I will admit that I haven't seen much in the way of veg growing
discussion here, but having seen two threads on bread making, I'm
prepared to consider that anything goes that I do myself.

My first year at same ... biggest issue was Cabbage White Butterflies ....
not wanting to spray they were everywhere.

I went away on 10 day holiday and whole crop wiped out ... Cauli & Cabbage
and about 50% of Broccoli.

Dis the fleece get pulled about by wind ... is it a pain to keep lifting up
for weeding ?
Does water pass through OK ?
Did you support it on anything or just drape over plants.?

Have to find solution for next year ...

Telescopic tunnels are the other option I guess.
