The Brussel Sprout harvest has come to an end. The sprouts on the stalk have started to blow, puff out, and will soon be producing flowers and shoots.
Pigeons have been eating the sprout leaves and making quite a mess of the plants.
We have been clearing away the winter vegetables, to make room for our new 2010 vegetables.
The brussel sprouts have been pulled up and will be left on the compost heap to rot.
In the Channel Islands the sprout stalks are dried and turned into walking sticks.
An antique, 32 inch long, walking stick made from a sprout stalk was sold on ebay in March 2010 for £75.
Now the end of the sprout harvest has come, the Brussel sprout plants have been pulled up to make way for lettuce and radish.
