Title: Cauliflowers- don't think this should happen yet!
Post by: Rosyred on December 06, 2006, 14:11:27
I'm growing Snowball A and sowed in Sept/Oct  for planting out in April 07 like the packet said but i've got two cauliflowers starting to form already. Has anyone else had this?

I grew snowball last year and they started to heart up very early - however after that they took a very long time to grow to maturity. So the whole thing evened out over time.

i put romanesco in end of september by early nov we ate the only one the pigeons didnt get... im sure this is far too short a time too.

I currently have cabbage, cauli, PSB in and some plants are going great guns, some still tiny - they obviously heard me say that i didnt want t a glut so are self controlling themselves LOL
