Planting Instructions:
Seed Preparation: No specific preparation required, but soaking seeds in water for 12-24 hours before planting can help speed up germination.
Sowing:
Start seeds indoors 4-6 weeks before the last expected frost. Sow seeds 1/4 inch deep in seed-starting mix.
Germination:
Germination typically occurs within 7-14 days under optimal conditions of soil moisture and temperature (65-75°F).
Transplanting:
Transplant seedlings outdoors when they have 2-3 true leaves and the danger of frost has passed. Space plants 18-24 inches apart in rows 24-36 inches apart.
Care and Maintenance:
Watering: Keep the soil consistently moist but not waterlogged. Ensure even watering to prevent stress and encourage healthy growth. Mulching: Apply mulch around plants to retain soil moisture and control weeds. Blanching (if needed): For the best quality heads, some gardeners prefer to blanch the curds by tying the outer leaves over the head when it is about 2-3 inches in diameter. This protects the head from direct sunlight and ensures a more tender and attractive cauliflower. Harvesting: Harvest when the heads are firm, compact, and reach a desirable size (typically 6-8 inches in diameter). Cut the heads from the plant with a sharp knife, leaving a few surrounding leaves to protect the head during storage.
