I sow all my winter brassicas end of April to beginning of May, if I leave it any later they don`t make any size. Last year the severe weather (Dec 2010)wiped out just about everything. This year I`ve had no frost fatalities at all and brocolli is vying for the best ever. Now; we`ve had plenty of frost this winter, probably below -10C at one point, but we haven`t had a prolonged period and I think this is the difference.
