Broccoli :-(
This is exclusively spring-cropping purple ("early purple"). I have occasionally done well, but I had a lot of problems sowing late, because the plants didn't get to a decent size before winter. The last two years, I have sown earlier, and the damn plants have headed in late autumn - with consequent taste, rot and caterpillar problems. Anyway, I don't want large heads in autumn; I want small shoots in spring. I don't THINK that this is the variety, because I have tried three, all of which were said to be early purple. So, any hints? Regards, Nick Maclaren. |
