  • Morning luvlies, a beautiful morning here :D. A day for tidying up the garden me thinks.

    FC so sorry to hear about DH, he is in the best place bless him, sending you positive vibes.

    Nanny well done on your 3rd star status!

    A question for you avid gardeners :). I planted some purple sprouting broccoli last year from seed and transplanted into raised beds in April last year. It says on the packet that the spears should be about 6" in length when cut. Now, every time I find one ready for cutting another side shoot appears and I'm not sure whether to cut this off with the bigger head IYSWIM or leave it. I've taken a couple of pics for you to see.

    TBH the plants got mullered by caterpillar last summer but I think the snow and the birds have killed off any late nesting visitors, so I've given the plants a good feed and all seems well lately. I've read in me gardening books that the sprouting broccoli is for the patient gardener as it takes about a year from sowing to harvest :eek:

    Hi there. We grew this last year (planted year before, it does take ages!) and when we harvested we just took the 'central bloom' and left the smaller 'satellites' to develop a little more before picking. More sprouted from the 'central stub' later too. If you net it you can keep the caterpillars away. We had almost 3 months harvest before it went to flower. Lovely plant. Enjoy!
    I am not young enough to know everything.

    Many thanks Emily Rachel, I'll pop out with a bowl and knife in a while and we can have some for tea, thanks again :)
