If the seeds came from a bocking 14 plant it won't grow as they are sterile methinks.
I pinched a few seeds from some plants on what is now my plot when I had another plot (if that makes sense?) and they didn't germinate.................which leads me to believe I have inherited the bocking 14 strain, hopefully!
