They are ready to transplant into their final growing position, and suit beginners and experienced vegetable growers alike.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eBrussels sprouts are fully hardy and the flavour is sweeter after a frost, so the plants can stand outdoors right through winter. Plant them in full sun in fertile, well drained soil, with shelter from strong winds. Firm the soil hard around the base to stop the plants rocking, and stake taller plants on an exposed site. Water regularly in dry spells and feed every 3 to 4 weeks. Net the plants against pigeons. Sprouts are ready to pick from late autumn through winter, and they are best picked when firm.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eCultural Information\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCommon Name:\u003c\/strong\u003e Brussels Sprout\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBotanical Name:\u003c\/strong\u003e Brassica oleracea Gemmifera Group\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFully Grown Height and Spread:\u003c\/strong\u003e Approx. 60-90cm tall and 60-75cm wide (variety dependent)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eGrowth Habit:\u003c\/strong\u003e Upright, sturdy stem with sprouts forming along the central stalk\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePerfect For:\u003c\/strong\u003e Allotments, raised beds and kitchen garden borders\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePlanting Position:\u003c\/strong\u003e Full sun, sheltered from strong winds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSoil Type:\u003c\/strong\u003e Fertile, well drained soil, firmed around the base\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHardiness:\u003c\/strong\u003e Fully hardy\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSeasonal Interest:\u003c\/strong\u003e Harvest from late autumn through winter\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eType:\u003c\/strong\u003e Hardy vegetable\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Verdant Living","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":68017143447772,"sku":"COL-M6P-BRU-SPR-BRILLX1","price":15.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0646\/2455\/8300\/files\/1_da7b6900-9d16-47a0-a784-d3f047a2d98c.png?v=1793631753","url":"https:\/\/www.verdant-living.co.uk\/products\/col-m6p-bru-spr-brillx1","provider":"Verdant Living","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
