Default Brussel Sprouts

Starting off in pots in green house - they are about three inches
high.

Some of the leaves are yellowing - should I be feeding them with
something?

We always grow our brassicas from seed in rootrainers but outside, not in
the greenhouse, like peas they don't like it hot.
Watch the Pigeons though!

Thanks to both of you - I will move them outside - the greenhouse has
been getting warm during the day.

Put something bright red near them and the pigeons will stay away.
