Can anyone help? The leaves on my "Red arrow" purple sprouting have gone floppy. Leaves are still green with no sign of anything else wrong. Given it a feed but the leaves are still looking very sorry for themselves. Is it the cold weather?
Mistakes are good as long as you learn from them!!!

Ours did the same a few weeks ago when we had snow andn very cold weather. Expect they may look like that now but it's too bloody cold again to warrant a trip out to the allotment! Ours seemed to recover fine, but haven't had any real crop off of them yet.

My Red Arrow is very slow to crop this year. I can only put it down to the weather and lack of rain.
