Beginner Gardening: Brussels Sprouts!!, 1 by darius

I have never tried to grow these before and this spring decided to try some, buying a small pack of seedlings (along with a few kohlrabi and savoy cabbage). The kohlrabi is long finished, as is the cabbage. The brussels sprouts kept growing taller (for 3 months!), but nada on fruiting... 2 weeks ago I noticed 'nubbins' and today there are actually a few large enough to harvest!

By the way, no one ever told me you need to cut off the stalks just below each nubbin as they start to emerge. NOW they will get more sunlight... Duh!

I'm SO excited!
