Do you have failures in sowing brassica??

[Mrs Ava]

Oh Tim, I could take a similar picture on the floor of my greenhouse where I have a platation of tomato seedlings all germinating daily, some are on their 2 set of true leaves!  Do I leave them or oik them out......  :-\

Emma - oik!

Cleo - too true!

[Marianne]

Tim - Why do you call it a failure ? ???  It looks alright from where I am standing  ??? :D

[tim]

Yes - great - but how do you get it out of the concrete path where it fell - probably last year??

Nature knows more than we do?

[Marianne]

Oh I see what you mean Tim !!  It's growing between the slabs ! 

I have the same problem with carrots ..... lovely foliage but impossible to get to the carrot itself  ;D :D

i've managed to sow some of this accidently aswell, i thought it was a weed at first, what brassica is it by the way?

[tim]

Probably Romanecsco - your guess!!

[westsussexlottie]

I have leek seedlings - yes leeks - growing among pebbles in my garden where I accidentally dropped some pelleted seed.
My tortoises are enjoying them.

[Justy]

looks like romanesco which is even more galling as looks much better than my pampered lot on the lottie!

I found what I thought was flat leaf parsley growing in a barrel I planted up last year with cottagey perennials.  I tasted it and it wasn't parsley.  Had a rummage and found it's celeriac.  How did that get there? I didn't grow celeriac last year or any other year for that matter  ;D
