Evesham Sprouts

[Lisasbolt]

I have my little brussels about 5 weeks old that i must plant out. I did a similar thing last year but bought the seedlings and i got brussels in the end of February. But then again we don´t really get any frosts and the nights at the worst get dark at 6:30pm. I can´t grow them for xmas as they will bolt, just hot and dry.
As you said, you have the seed and hopefully space so i hope it works for you.

Ok, who's sown any for a Spring harvest? I really will eat my hat if from an October sowing you will get sprouts in Spring. I want photos to prove it !
How are they doing so far?

I think we need to see a photo of this hat,in the interests of fair play of course

I was picturing something a bit more like this:

Here are my sprouts in October http://www.growfruitandveg.co.uk/gra...ml#post1380087. Sown about April/May I think and they have small pickable sprouts now.
I have a few leftover plants from a much later sowing but I need a space to plant them out. Maybe I'll be picking those in spring

Well sowed some and they all came up nicely about 2 weeks later and then after a few days i went back and checked them and realised the slugs had seen to the bloody lot of them. Luckily i had also planted some in a pot and i will transfer them into the garden once they get a pit bigger and hopefully when there's no slugs about.

Can i just say as well, sowing these in october was said to get you a crop in late spring/early summer. So i hope people aren't expecting sprouts in March or April. Certainly not up here in Co. Durham anyway lol.
