    No wonder you got so many strawbs! How many square feet of fruit you growing there? And good luck with the cabbages. I won’t be doing any brassica starts for about a month here. Everything I have left is starting to look like this

      I think it’s like 8’ x 5’? 19 plants

      Thanks, I haven’t successfully grown one before.

      Ohh that’s bolted hard! Poor lil guy. Is it kale?

        Nice. Watch it start taking over in the next couple seasons

        Nah, that’s actually broccoli. The kale is right behind it. I do black magic kale and it is usually the last thing to start bolting. But! This is a good thing. I’m hoping to collect seeds this year, though I don’t know where I’m hoping this particular broccoli is getting pollinated from. We’ll see!
