Of course, if you just plant out brassicas and leave it like that, they will last about 3 minutes before the combination of butterflies and pigeons do for them, so they need some sort of frame and netting.
I'd thought ahead, and had a blue pipe/wooden brace combo mapped out in my head. This was nearly the world's best idea, but turns out to have an inherent weakness of design; and will thus need adjustment - or possibly total rebuild. In the meantime, the whole caboodle is propped up with an impromptu - and somewhat oversized - upright. Fortunately, the netting is big enough to still fit over, and my brassicas - barring structure collapse - are snug and safe.
