Then they are hungry feeders so we gave foliar feed.<br /><br />We have difficulty growing caulis too though. Last year we were more successful with coloured varieties - but we are trying the white ones again from seed this year. The over winter ones seem easier somehow. <br /><br />Thanks JoSue Garretthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08164518448098182276noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33294007.post-8634349101880301672010-05-26T07:49:17.022+00:002010-05-26T07:49:17.022+00:00Mother Nature is much better at scattering seeds t...Mother Nature is much better at scattering seeds than we are.
