    right

    in GYO March it says that you can eat rocket two weeks after sowing
    now while i'm sure i could for the gourmet food market, with the wee shoots and all that but these seedlings look nothing like rocket yet!!!

            Snap, mine as well! Hi G4 how you doing? I had some of last years still in my garden It had flowered and gone to seed but I have pulled it up seeing as it is so easy to grow from seed. I just wanted to start from frresh! Given a month or so and the stuff will be sprouting like mad if all goes well!

              well mine is sprouting well but i've seen elsewhere it should be ready to eat after a few weeks growth
              mine is not much beyond gourmet salad filling and i just wondered if that is normal
              !!

                I think seed packets make some fairly far fetched claims at times! You and I both need a good dose of patience, right now lol They will grow soon enough

                    I was going to plant mine straight out... do you think it's a bit early?

                      Mine's suffered a little being in an unheated greenhouse with massively variable temperatures over the past fortnight. Still not worth starting over though.

                          mine seem quite happy and i guess the patience thing is right
                          just wondered whether i give them the boot outside now....
