I am growing Brussels sprouts for the first time. Maybe I planted too late. Maybe not .... My sister has a recipe that she would like to make us for Thanksgiving. I am hoping these will keep growing and give us a nice harvest by Nov 22 - 4 weeks away.
My Brussel Sprouts look identical to yours, Im in Chicago, I thought that I had planted them too late also. I recently went to the Chicago Botanic Gardens and saw their magnificent veg gardens, their BS were huge and they were trimming off the very top leaves, Im going to try this approach and see if allowing more light down the shaft of the plant yields the sprouts to form better.
ReplyDeleteHi Kathy, some of ours are small some so small I don't expect they will come to anything. Not enough sun at the right time. Still you can eat the leaf, it's tastey.

Thanks for the brussel sprout photo - now there's a vegetable I've NEVER planted. How tall does the plant grow?
ReplyDeleteI've been successful with quite a lot of other veggies and this year's crop of broad beans is the best ever! Can't wait for them to mature for a meal or two.
