About this variety

Clobber clubroot with Brussels Sprout ‘Cryptus’ ! This easy-growing, medium-late variety is equipped with superb genetic resistance to all common clubroot races. Ready for harvest in November and December when little else is available on the veg plot, it is a sturdy plant with good field-standing ability producing high yields of medium green sprouts with a mild taste just at the right time for Christmas dinner!

Height: 75cm (30").

Spread: 50cm (20").

Sowing: Sow Brussels Sprout seed indoors from February. Alternatively direct sow outdoors from March into a well prepared seedbed, for transplanting to their final positions later on. Sow at a depth of 13mm (½") and distance of 30cm (12") between rows. Indoors, sow seed in 7.5cm (3") pots or trays of free-draining, seed sowing compost and cover with a 6mm (¼") layer of vermiculite. Place in a propagator or seal container inside a plastic bag at a temperature of 15C (60F) until germination which takes around 7 days. Once germinated, grow Brussels Sprouts on in cooler conditions until all risk of frost has passed and plants are large enough to be transplanted.

Gradually acclimatise them to outdoor conditions over 7 - 10 days before planting Brussels Sprout plants outdoors in firm, rich fertile, well drained soil in full sun. Prepare the soil in advance in early spring by adding plenty of well rotted farmyard manure to the soil to improve its structure and fertility. Plant brassicas at a distance of 60cm (24") apart and cover with a protective netting or fleece to prevent attack from birds and insects. Water the plants thoroughly after planting.

Sowing Months: February - March

Harvesting Months: November - Decemeber

When to buy and plant

Use the sowing dates on the packet. Some seeds need indoor sowing and transplanting; others can be sown directly outdoors when conditions are suitable.

Planting and growing

Follow the packet for sowing depth, spacing and germination conditions. Choose suitable seed compost where required, label varieties and avoid letting seedlings dry out.

Aftercare

Thin or transplant seedlings as directed and harden off indoor-raised plants before planting out. Water and feed for the crop or flower you are growing.

Daffodil bulbs

I am absolutely delighted with the service I have received from Newlands . The Order of various daffodil bulbs were delivered the next day ! How efficient was that! I have begun to plant them to have an early spring display. Each of the bulbs look healthy and not soft as sometimes occurs . I would highly recommend Newland for ordering , fast and protected delivery and competitive prices .
Happy planting !

HabiStat Leopard Gecko Substrate 10kg
Excellent

Tried this substrate out of curiosity. Previously my gecko was on Earth Pro Arid which itself is a good substrate, so I didn't expect it to be outperformed. I prefer this substrate by far. It does not give off any dust when dry. When wet it sticks and holds together like sand on a beach, making it very malleable and easy to landscape your viv. It holds humidity very well. My gecko hates sphagnum moss, so I use this in his humid hide and it works just as good, so it's solved that issue for us!

Everything I ordered came packaged very securely with fragile stickers attached to the outside. Which was appreciated as bulbs were also in my order. Order arrived quickly too!

I am really pleased with the pond plants I purchased from Newlands, it was the first time I had done so. The plants were in good condition, and I have no hesitation buying more plants in the spring for my pond from them.
