growing cauliflowers

[farmerjim]

i planted some caulis last septmber. they were plants that were reduced to clear. Didnt do very much at all for a few months, now they are about a foot high and the base of the plant is about an inch an a quater. Looking at caulis in the supermarket iv got a long way to go yet! They better taste nice!

Lottie Dolly, you can still grow other type which will bear floret faster and keep your previous one as spring cauli, this way you will have a continuous harvest from fall to spring .

hi mamol,had another look at the packet it also say sow april/may,harvest early april NEXT year,maybe thats why they so slow,perhaps i got to much sun on saturday,fryed my brain,it was very hot here.good luck with your growing.

thank you to every one who answered my call,i have taken note of the different types of caulies,for next year,and taken on board the advice given,on the question{ has anyone used loo rolls for the caulie seed},i am going to do an experiment and find out,but i am not giving up.
