I didn't realise they were brassicas but if they are they could also suffer from clubroot and spread the sporesSick

Clubroot is a microscopic fungus so yes, it could be spread this way.  Cry Do you have clubroot in part of your garden Spec? Huh

No Vinny I don't have clubroot though it was in the garden many years ago, and don't want it back again, so when I read about watercress being
Nasturtium officinale, I immediately thought that with the peppery taste, similar to the likes of rocket, then what I know as nasturtium could be related to the brassica, but as Veggie has pointed out the nasturtium that I sow for flowers are thankfully of the Tropaeolum species, so thanks Veggie
