Some varieties of sprouts are described as resistant to lodging. Can anyone tell me if this is when the sprout blows open? It is a real problem on our dry gavelly soil.
I've always thought of lodging as a plant being blown over in the wind, often needing help to right themselves.
Oh right. They do fall over here in the wind but I do not mind as long as the sprouts stay nice and solid.
....and I thought it was about beasties in Brussel Sprouts!!! :-[
;D ;D ;D So did I!!
And me ;D
me too ;)

Do they still stay nice and solid after falling over, I always understood "wind rock" or lodging as we now know it's called caused them to blow :-\
