PoconoPotatoes said:My experience growing Brussels last year from seed was poor (Catskill variety). Started from seed, late; maybe mid-April, and they never developed fast enough for our weather. By October they'd barely started growing any budding sprouts ... I had bought a few plants, seeing how slowly they were growing, and the plants did better, but caterpillars infested them and I got a pathetic harvest of tiny ones.
Trying again this year, started last week, and will be using DE and a hoop tunnel to try to keep the pests at bay.
