I am trying to get some more cauli's before the end, I didnt grow many as no one else liked them, but hey took one home and guess what, they tried and now love them so my crop went down very quick, so mine have just germinated and I reckon I should get some mini's.

I lost some caulis to the birds and slugs, so sowed some more, they are about 2 inches high now, so I'd say if you've got spare seed, try it, they'll either grow or not, even if like Aidy said they are smaller than you'd like!  Still better than supermarket stuff!!!

Small ones are considered very expensive delicacies anyway aren't they, by supermarkets anyway!

Go for it!! What have you got to lose and you might be pleasantly surprised by the results especially as our weather is so variable in recent years
Ah well ! There is always next year !
