I have a Romanesco which has a couple of flowers and a few buds... but it's too early for me to plant out just yet!

Mine are still in their packets, although I occasionally hear them jumping up and down trying to get out!  ;)
Mine are in their packets too, but might be emerging tomorrow.
Blimey!  Is it that time already?  :ohmy:

No guesses as to what I'll be doing later!  :lol:

We really did force ourselves to cut back on sowing them this year, and as only two germinated, we bought one from our local nursery - High Banks (they deserve a mention - lovely people), and it's starting to grow buds by the hour!

The others aren't far behind either, so this next couple of weeks is the nightmare scenario, where we're rushing around rearranging everything all day...

Always good to have something fresh, Robster  :D :D

Unfortunately, pride comes before a fall as they say. My embryo courgette has withered! Wonder if my tomato embryos will do the same. :(
