Post by: vegikev on February 14, 2008, 18:24

hi all
i have plans to make my patch more organised which will involve moving my greenhouse, problem is the new site for the g/h has cabbages and broccoli living there. they are established but will they be ok to move them??? and if so when. i planted them late last year, the cabbages are forming and the broccoli is also starting to form its spears. i dont actually know which variety they are.
ps sorry for the terrible spelling before

Gabages you take to the tip and brocoli you do not want to catch. :lol:

Seriously though what are these plants exactly to see if it's worth replanting them at all.

Cabbages, winter ones I have no hope for moving those a bit of luck with spring ones. Broccoli can be all so many things!

No need to apologise about spelling here, on the contrary some make a good laugh which we all like and enjoy.

I for one, have a famous worm coat, amongst others.

Well, if they are both forming, probably won't take to the moving well, but you need the gh up now, not in May, so something for something.

You try and don't hope for much, but also think of crop rotation, is it worth to use an area for a possible failure?
