Another five cauliflower plants had to come out this morning, following the two I removed last week.  I still have about 15 plants left, so I’m hoping hard that they’ll escape the horrible disease.  It seems that our allotment plot is riddled with club root, and I will have to review my planting choices next year to include more F1 hybrids with club root resistance, or give brassicas a break completely.

On a more positive note, the F1 Kilaxy cabbages that I planted (in the same bed as those pesky cauliflowers) have grown extremely well and are nearing eating point.
