Well, as an experienced gardener I can tell you that growing perfect broccoli and cualiflower is very challenging, growing leafy greens is not. if you have a desent sized garden and are constantly growing stuff in it, you will almost always have greens one way or another. all those failed broccoli result in a consolation prize: the leafy greens that come with the plant. and when they do go to seed, the plant gets super huge delivering pound after pound of leafy greens. similar things happen to lettuce and many other greens. and if you take the time to identify all the weeds growing, you'll notice that many of them are edible and can be added to the garden salad. the beets whose heads never developed properly, still have lots of green growth on top. and those french sorrel plants, once properly rooted will be hard to get rid of and you'll have pounds of leafy greens. Just keep growing and you'll see. I've experienced this myself. Most of the year, i have waaayy too many leafy greens (much of it from failed brassicas, various weeds - which by the way are very nutritious) than i know what to do with and harvest at least 1/2 lb per day. |
