DIG THIS!   about Collards:

Cabbage loopers can be pesky but are easy to deal with.  Examine your cabbage family plants daily for the loopers and drop them into a bucket of soapy water.  Don’t forget the bottom of the leaves, one of their favorite hangouts!  Collards are also known as “tree cabbage” or “non-heading cabbage” and were cultivated by ancient Greeks and Romans.
