Hi,
We're growing brussel sprouts in the garden for the first time.
They've been doing well but over the last few days the lower leaves
have started dying off. First the veins go a purplish red and then the
leaves starting at the edges. Then the leaves go yellow and die.
Any ideas what this could be and how to treat it? PReferably with an
organic treatment but any solutions would be very welcome.
Regards and thanks,
Doug

Best to pull one up to establish whether or not you have clubroot. If
not, you can examine inside the stem to see what is going on.
