Brussel sprouts

June 27: I like sprouts, I may be in a minority here but what the heck. I've seen the real thing growing and it's a pretty weird plant with these mini cabbage like growths sprouting out the side of the stems.  Sprouts aren't just for Christmas!

 


July 1st: no change.

Might be a bit early.

July 4th: Like the fireworks in the USA today, my sprouts are . . . sprouting.

I don't know why sprouts have such bad press, Ok, so my wife refers to them as quilt-lifters as they do produce an amount of gas after digestion but so do baked beans and look at how many of those we eat.

July 17th: Update, replanted in a trough and left to their own devices . . they died, well all but three.
