There's only one way to find out!

As it's next year when it produces, it does have a while to catch up. I'd go for it.
Did it really tell you to do THAT on the packet?

I have only just sown my spring early sprouting broccoli, last years was late it went in at the end of august and I had a good crop this year so I doubt your anywhere near too late.

Many thanks - I'm starting to question the sowing dates they put on the seed packets. Three weeks ago i decided to sow some more courgettes after the slugs got two of mine leaving only one. The second lot have grwon so well and made a much better start thean the first lot.

yea it can very regional as well, I tend not to start to early as I know the plants will catch up very quickly and are generaly stronger for leaving them until we get more daylight hours and warmth.
