Brussels Sprouts are one of my favorite vegetables, I go through pounds and pounds of them every fall, and have grown them before successfully. This year, I had a large bed entirely devoted to brussel sprouts, in order to feed my cravings. I seeded it about a month ago, and, it has become abundantly clear that not a single seed has germinated. I'm pretty pissed, because I started almost everything else in my garden from seed, and everything else come up fine and thrived, including some red cabbages, so I know that it was the seeds, not the garden.

i was wondering if any of you know if it's not to late to try seeding brussel sprouts again. I know they take a long time, but I think I still have enough time left in the season here. I live in the pacific northwest, so they should be able to really grow well into fall. the only starts I've seen are already lanky and bolting, so no hope there. Should I by some better seeds and try again, or give up, plant some more carrots, and turn to the local farmer's market?
