I’ve given up frowning any leafy greens at our allotment. They just get eaten. The frustration every year got too much and I can’t spray with chemicals.

Yep, I’m always tempted to try purple sprouting especially, but leafy greens (chard/spinach aside) never get far growing before the pigeons/caterpillars/locusts get them. Gave up a few years ago. That’s a great effort Dancing James.

They got utterly attacked last year by cabbage white caterpillars - there were two really bad phases of them. But they survived and seem to have over wintered rather well.
