About 30 or 40 years ago they had some cases of Weil's in the river about seven miles away. They had pest control working down there for about a week.

Thanks, they're doing well now, even flowering quite actively (although that's likely to change as it cools off this weekend).

Collapsed cabbage.
Bummer about your cabbage! Sometimes it happens to the best of us. Maybe check for pests or diseases, and keep an eye on the others.

Looks like you're dealing with springtails. They're tiny and can gather in damp areas. Try to reduce moisture around the porch – fix any leaks, ensure proper drainage, and clear debris. They usually move inside to escape dampness. Some bug spray could help if they're really bothering you.
