Last year I sowed some Chinese Cabbage that turned out to be Russian Kale. I'd mixed the packets up ;)

Mind you, we were still eating it for tea yesterday, but we still don't know what Chinese Cabbage is like. This year I double and triple checked before I sowed them :D

Did you store the seeds next to the microwave, without their tin foil protection  :ohmy:

Ah.
Did it really tell you to do THAT on the packet?

I have not mixed the packets up, and NO brassica that I know of should look like this!

Time will tell whether this is a mutation or an alien import I guess  ??? :wacko:

Yup, keep updating the thread DD :)
When weeding, the best way to know if its a weed and not a valuable plant is to pull it.

If it comes out easy, it was a valuable plant !
