Title: broccoli bolting
Post by: molly atkin on June 30, 2009, 20:49:44
Help! My broccoli's bolting. Does that mean its all over for them or can I rescue them? And is it the hot weather that's to blame?

Welcome to A4A... and being a brassica the leaves are edible, but do tend to be a bit tough...  :-\
