This is my first year growing cauliflowers and this one has developed a purplish tinge round the florets. Has anyone any idea what might be causing it?
I don't know the answer but flopsy is having exactly the same experience.

Another grape has the same problem further down the page.
Originally most cauli's were coloured in some way or other and if you let light get to the curd this can happen. Snap the leaves and cover the curd to prevent this happening. a foliar feed may also help.

Thank you folks, Not sure how they could get too much sun given the summer we've been having but I will fold the leaves over the remaining ones and see if that helps.
