Worried about Club root in your brassicas.

So you have taken precautions to lessen the effect of Clubroot in you brassicas.
Perhaps you grew plants elsewhere in pots to develop a strong root system before planting into soil contaminated with Clubroot. Then, when planting out, you limed the soil round your brassicas.
Now to maintain the lime protection, add a handful of lime to your watering can and keep it stirred as you water your brassicas.
It replaces the lime being washed out from around the roots.
