Subversive wrote a few weeks back "Post a photo in a couple weeks, let's see how they are doing! Good luck! ", in reference to my problematic crimson crushes. Well, they did grow but very slowly and I planted them out in the allotment. As you can see in the photo, they are still quite small (on the right), compared with the beefsteaks (a bit further to the left, after the lettuce in the background). I chitted some more Crimson C. seeds and put them in pots but they never emerged.
