Hi, I have been lurking here for a while now for bits of info, but need some advice now, I hope that I have posted this in the right place.
I am really quite new to this gardening business, and slowly learning from my mistakes
I sowed some Broccoli in the conservatory last month, its quite shady in there, gets warm during the day but frosty at night. The broccoli was doing well, 5/6 proper leaves on each plant. I planted them outside two days ago, and they look really ill now, some leaves a wilting back, and just look like they are about to die off.
I suspect I have been too keen and probably done everything far too early for where I live. Perhaps I didnt harden off thoroughly either.
Not sure what to do with them now though? My partner says dig them back up and bring them back in, but I cant help but think moving them again might not be such a good plan? I have grown quite attached to the little fellows so would prefer them not to die on me, but I have no idea what to do.
