On a slightly different note, has anybody managed to grow reds properly without bolting?

I've tried 2 varieties over 4 years and barely had a dozen good ones. Red Baron and a.n. other from sets.

Maybe seeds produce better results?   ???

I'm on clay, btw.
I hoe, I hoe, then off to work I go.

This came up recently and I think the advice was not to plant out until after the  vernal equinox, which usually falls on or around 20th March.

Found it...

There's always a lot to be said in :
