Default Lovely weather for brocolli

I gave up and netted them against the pigeons, the cold dealt with
most of the whitefly, and the cool, wet conditions mean that they

Almost everything else is sulking, or growing very slowly, of course :-(


How we all love the whitefly! Come the warmer weather they WILL pee us all
off with their numbers.


Not typically with me - they seem to prefer the colder weather here.

You are lucky to get a crop, or did you mean growing well?


They are cropping gradually, and quite well - so often, I get nothing
except for a single fortnight.
