  • turning blue

    Planted out cabbage and sprouts a week ago,all plug plants when they were planted all were a nice green colour but now all the leaves are turning a bluey-purple colour have I done something wrong and will they recover??
    Thanks in advance for any replies.

    Lots of brassicas have bluey green leaves - this is perfectly normal. Your plug plants may have been raised in heat and under lights which would account for the brighter green colour.

      The variety could also have an effect too.

      Red cabbages can start off green then as they grow the develop the red colour, although they are normally noticeably different buy the time the are a few inches high.

        As RL & Paulie say, nothing to worry about most likely....Many brassicas have that sort of coloured appearance..
        I dream of a better tomorrow, where chickens can cross the road and not be questioned about their motives....
