purple sprouting brocolli

My broccoli took some time then all at once they all sprouted heads.TIP: I cut off pantyhose and put on the developing broccoli heads to keep away the cabbage moths ..it works!I just have to keep plucking the heads before they flower...can't keep up.

And you can cook the green parts of broccoli just as you would any other brassica. Our purple sprouting isn't doing too well either... I'm blaming it on the weather as the other brassicas are fine

Last time that happened to mine - and the plants were looking TOO healthy with no obvious "heads"...I nipped out the tops - quite savagely (made me feel better too and they were tasty as well!) and the plants promptly went mad and sprouted like crazy from every leaf axil...couldn't keep up with the crop and had to freeze some!
Worth a try?

I would say so... definitely!
