Brassica in polytunnel ??
« on: April 11, 2020, 19:18 »
Hi

A friend of ours has invested in a polytunnel and is planning on growing cauliflower / Cabbage in there this year.

I thought polytunnels were ok to start brassicas but it would be far too hot all season long .

Any thoughts ?

I agree, I only grew brassicas in winter, when I had mine.

Yep way to hot. I start some cabbages, kale and cauli's in September and then plant them in the polytunnel in October.
