Sprouts not sprouting

I have falstaff sprouts in,they are 18"tall,healthy looking but no sign of any sprouts.This is the first time of growing and I wouldn`t be worried except for all you out there talking about your sprout buttons.Is there a problem,can I do anything or just stand back and wait?!

Thanks,that`ll be just about right.How tall do they get as they`re near the top of the net now and the pidgeons are laying in wait with the cabbage whites!

Don't worry Annie, if I didn't have my glasses on I wouldn't be able to see my sprouts! They are the size of a dew drop, so I expect yours will be along very shortly.

Don't worry. My spouts are still small but I am hoping that some will be ready just before Christmas.

Don't worry
