another sprout question...
« on: September 30, 2008, 14:17:07 »
My sprouts are showing signs of what I believe is blowing.  Is there anything I can do to stop it?   The buttons are quite small and opening up as they get bigger.

Your plants might might be loose around the roots.

You could try staking the plants and earthing up around the bottoms and heeling in....that wont help the sprouts that have already blown though
You can pick your friends, and you can pick your nose, but you can't pick your friends nose
