Not sure whats going on, but when i tried replying in the Cauli's topic, it kept coming up Error 403 access forbidden, not sure what thats all about.
Maybe someone will be able to shed some light on it. :?


Dear Tiny Tubar, i'm not sure if you realize, but the cauli's All the year round are an actual variety.
As for your Cauli's you have bought, i would say they are a winter type.
It would be best to plant them out at least two feet apart in the open ground. They do like a good fertile soil to get growing well. The things you will have to watch out for straight away, will be pigeons and caterpillars.
If you can give them some protection through the hardest part of the winter, so much the better.

As for the period to harvest, it depends on the variety, but they normally head up in March or April, but some are a little earlier and some a little later. :)

Do know what type they are by the way. :?:
Kind Regards, Old Herbaceous.
