This is the largest kohlrabi I have going, which is partially indoors.
We have been having cool weather so far this season, with June being the coldest in 15 years. The big problem is the lack of sun.
This week I took a few hits. I had to pull almost all the sunflowers as they had gone to head just over 3ft, thinking it was fall. One of my kohlrabis split and got pulled. One of the Mammoth beets went to seed, also thinking it was fall. The corn is heavily stunted.
The 206.5 marrow will probably not be throwing marrows, even though it is a very aggressive plant. The 135.5 marrow, on the other hand, is doing quite well, as is the 85 Eaton field pumpkin. The rest of the giant veg is either stunted or way behind other years.
