Just imagine a Brussels Sprout which you can serve at the dinner table, and the children come back for seconds! Thanks to the work of the breeder, continuously striving for a better, sweeter flavour, your wish can now come true with Trafalgar. This modern hybrid produces a heavy crop of medium sized, firm button sprouts from mid December to late March and they keep their excellent quality over a long period of time. Harvest December to March Sowing Instructions. Sow from end of February to April under glass for the best crops. Outdoors sow in a seed bed in March/April thinly 12mm (½in) deep in rows 23cm (9in) apart. If the soil is dry, water well and allow to drain before sowing. Growing Instructions. Transplant in late spring/early summer when approx. 15cm (6in) tall, allowing 60-80cm (2-2.5ft) between plants. Plant firmly, the soil should be well limed and in good heart, with plenty of well rotted compost etc., preferably from a previous crop. Before planting rake in 3oz/sq yd of a balanced fertiliser. Water in dry weather. Aftercare Instructions. When the sprouts start to form, pinch out the growing point to assist development. To avoid the danger of Clubroot grow your Brassicas (Cabbages, Sprouts, Cauliflowers etc.) in a different site each year so that they only occupy the same spot once in four |
