Has anyone ever planted these and had a result? Ray has saved the seeds
from one he ate two days ago and is going to have a try!


Yes. They germinate readily, and grow fairly easily in a warm,
sunny place. They are thoroughly unexciting, unfortunately.
The mature plant looks like a gigantic brussel sprout, and I
doubt that they would crop even in your polytunnel.
