brussels sprouts



Even though the weather has turned to fall, with almost freezing temperatures at night, stuff still grows. Just look at the size of these sprouts! So far, all except one plant are aphid free, but there has recently been a hatching of snails which are tiny and hide in the top new leaves. So spent some time today picking (I got slimed!) them off and dropping them into a salt pile - ick!
