This is the first year that they have done this well and I can't wait to get my first taste of them.

Wow, good going! I just set some plants out yesterday, and taking a risk at that! (I'm about 3 wks later than normal.)

Won't be long your babies will be rollin' around in butter then staring up at ya from a plate!

Wiond, how do you control the aphids and bugs on brussel sprouts? Everytime I have ever tried them they just get infested with aphids.

I spray them with Seven dust, not the liquid.

Wow, windsurfer yours look fantastic. Here is a pic of mine taken at the beginning of August. The sprouts are about twice as big now, but not clumped like yours. What variety is that?

Sue I bought the plants and the tag only said Brussel Sprouts. They are even larger now and one has an off set plant starting to grow. I am not going to pick them until the first frost, I will post a picture then.
I use the leaves in my mixed greens so I don't waste any part of the plant except the stalk.
