Default Club Root overcome

For those of you that grow veg but don't take the Kitchen Garden...

They report that a Club Root resistant F1 Cabbage has been developed in
Holland and the seeds will be available through Suttons and Dobies. It's
called "Kilaxy". Whilst they do not claim it is totally immune to clubroot,
they did note some signs of swollen nodules on some plant roots, but they
still produced good headed cabbages.

Details from the Suttons web site...

Cabbage F1 Kilaxy

A top quality late summer/autumn cabbage of the round headed Dutch White
type, with solid compact heads of around 2kg in weight, which both stand and
store well. Excellent thin leaved, dense internal structure. (It is so
resistant that it will produce a fine crop on infected ground where ordinary
varieties fail. This strong resistance has been well proven on both our own
trials site and others across Europe.)

Perfect timing as far as I'm concerned. :-)
