Hi I'm wondering if my sprouts are blown (pic below)? I'm not sure what kind they are I just no they are summer cropping. And if the are blown can I still get a harvest from the plants and how will I go about it? Many thanks

When did you plant them, and how big are the plants. In pots, or open ground. It's a lovely close-up, but a picture of the whole plant as well would be good. -
They are growing down the side of my house and are a little over 2foot. Pic below

The plants look fine and healthy to me. Sprouts just starting to form by the look of it.
As a matter of curiosity where did you get the plants or seeds? I never heard of summer cropping sprouts

I bought them from homebase as seedlings. Now that I think it might of said early. I'm getting confused with the PSB. :-). So all look well then?Comment

Probably early. Sprouts take a long time to grow and mature.Comment

Eek! Just been to the allotment and noticed six of my sprout plants have flower buds at the top of the stalk. They're about 3 foot high and look otherwise healthy.
I'm assuming this means they're bolting? Is there any point in removing the flowerbuds and leaving them in, or do I cut my losses and pull the plants out?Comment

Never heard of that one WPG. Try cutting the flowers off.Comment
