This years newbie question
« on: May 21, 2013, 10:05 »
Good morning chaps, well I've had my allotment just under a year and have enjoyed it but still very much learning. I bought some plants a few months ago and this is what they're looking like, very long stalks is this 'leggy' ... are they cabbages or 'greens' are they meant to be tall and should I stake them or give up ... all advice welcome thank you.
