Help.
I have around eight fantastically large cauliflowers growing (my first time so may come to nothing yet!) and when I showed them to my mother-in-law she said:
'you need to use the big outside leaves to cover the cauliflower to keep it white and stop it going green'
This is the first I have heard of this and cannot find any mention of it in any thread on the search option here. I even researched growing cauli's and there was no mention in the article I have been using as a kind of bible on cauli growing.
Anyone know what she's talking about? The cauli's are in a raised bed covered with netting.
Not sure I need to do anything else but watch them grow?! Do I?
