Title: Kale and cauliflower question!
Post by: Duke Ellington on September 23, 2008, 14:05:06
I have just seen kale and cauliflower plants for sale in the local garden centre. Is it okay to plant this out on the allotment now ?

Not sure about kale but yes for caulis.   I sowed some cauli seeds last month.  They are to be planted out this weekend.  The variety I chose will be ready in December.  Others will be ready in spring.
