I’m going to have another go at spring greens again this year.
I’m having some with my tea this evening. Realised I’ve not successfully grown them yet. Which is madness . It’s one of the very few veg I’ve eaten all my life (very fussy eater as a kid. Wish I still was , might not be so wide now )
Hopefully I’ll have a bed in situ by planting time.
Anyone else going to have a go?
Builder that would like to go play in the garden.

Anyone else going to have a go? I usually grow spring cabbage but don't sow it until June/July? I plant it out fairly close together and use intermittant plants as spring greens!

No, sorry. Cabbage of any sort, whilst we like it, is overshadowed by other veg and decimated by pests, worms, slugs, birds, etc. Spring cabbage is supposedly sown in summer and over winters, ready for spring, which again is a failure in my garden. I have enough trouble keeping birds, insects and caterpillars off my kale, broc and carrots without adding to the 'needs protection' family.
