    My PSB is still in 3" pots and won't be planted out until about mid June. I find if you plant it out too early it bolts and you get a small very early crop rather than the massive crop I want next spring when there isn't much about. I think mine are a bit behind this year to be honest but I know I've planted out in July in the past and it still survived the winter and gave a good crop (that was the year before last so it still had to suffer a heavy winter). As said above, you probably need to put a piccie up so that people can have a look at how bad the plants look, sometimes you can get nervous about a plant (especially if you've not grown before) when really it's doing fine but other times there really is a problem.

    Some of us live in the past, always talking about back then. Some of us live in the future, always planning what we are going to do. And, then there are those, who neither look behind or ahead, but just enjoy the moment of right now.

    Which one are you and is it how you want to be?

      Just in case you didn't notice chaps, the original query was posted in 2009... Carollesley put her query onto the bottom of the original thread

        Please miss, I noticed, but what with the search function not working I just jumped on the first thread I saw about PSB.

        While I'm here, can anyone recommend a variety that'll keep me fed in the new year please?
