You had, I suppose, cut the first heads (it's about buds, which are not yet flowers) ???

Not surprisingly, for a non-mycorrhizal plant that prefers wet soils and has nutrient requirements, especially nitrogen, than fall, with the return of moisture, mineralization , etc., be favorable to him

In our systems, yes, absolutely: water and nitrification boost their growth ...

Why don't my rather beautiful cabbages suck?
Whereas my neighbors have rather small cabbages that are sucking.

The last time a lady told me that, I suggested that she put sulfur on it.

A few months later, she confirmed that it was growing well.

But it can also be boron.

And it can be by chance!

Are the neighbors close? On the same type of soil ???

Perhaps the much better growth in you is exacerbating a deficiency! There is an old law, which should not be taken literally, but which is not 100% silly either: it is the element which is most lacking - compared to the needs of the plant - which will determine the yield.

Plant requirements are proportional to the yield. You feed better in N, P and K than them. With them, it is one of these elements that limits. With you, it can be S.

to chew a cabbage made of leaves, over the same period according to all logic with the same solar energy, the cabbages of the neighbors make 2 small leaves while your larger ones will be one, and therefore in the end their cabbages more leaves will chew, yours will chew later that's all, at least that's what I think, I could be wrong

The Brussels sprouts sprouted from a bud on a rachytic foot which suffered flea beetles this summer is 2 times higher and has 3 times more buds than those I planted at the end of summer.

My cherry tree transplants were about 80% successful.
I also have a plum tree on sloe that seems to be gone.
In the squatted ground where I do this there is a test which worked with stretch film to replace the putty.
Has anyone tried with what success?
The putty is at a price bordering on the scam almost 10 € the small pot of 20cl.
I didn't believe it but it can work

First potatoes 12 days earlier than last year. I took about 1 kg, leaving the feet.
The very beautiful garlic caught the rust. I surely planted them too tight and we had a lot of water this winter.
Less slugs in the onions for now.

This year I had a Andean horned tomato foot layered. The main foot gives 7 feet which gives a small forest

t.
It is not too visible on the photo but for the season my 7 feet have formed tomatoes.

I also separated from the foot a stem with a few roots. At first he tired but now it's gone.

He has flowers
