Broccoli Sprouting Rudolph Extra Early

Description

Growing Instructions

Sow directly into the garden or trays. Cover seeds with 0.5cm of fine soil. Keep soil moderately moist during germination.

Space plants 45-60cm apart in rows spaced 60-90cm apart depending upon available room.

Thin or transplant seedlings when 5cm tall.

Broccoli grows best in a mostly sunny location during the cooler parts of the growing season. Prefers fairly rich soil kept fairly moist.

Cut the main head early and the plants will continue to produce numerous small side heads thereafter. Continuous steady harvesting is essential to maximise the harvest.

Protect from birds and other pests over winter
