Yellow spots are normally a sign of mineral deficiency (often nitrogen) have you tried feeding them anything? My broccoli got holes in, but that was cos of the slugs.....  :wacko:

Give them a sprinkle of sulphate of ammonia (cheap as chips from wilkos) as a top dressing around the roots (avoid the leaves), and plenty of water if you arent getting these storms!
