    It has bolted Lulu.  Is the soil in that area prone to drying out?  You have to keep a close eye on broccoli as time between florets growing to a useful size to harvest and them turning into flowers is very short (about a week.)

    A trowel in the hand is worth a thousand lost under a bush.
  • Thanks Bob. I had to go away for a few days so they must have got too dry. Up they come!
