Growing Info

Start Indoors: Sow seeds indoors approximately 4–6 weeks before your intended transplant date.

Sowing Depth: Plant seeds approximately ¼ inch deep in a moist seed-starting mix.

Germination: Keep soil evenly moist and moderately warm until seedlings emerge.

Transplanting: Move seedlings outdoors once they have several true leaves and weather conditions are cool and suitable. Harden seedlings off gradually before transplanting.

Spacing: Space plants approximately 18–24 inches apart to allow mature heads and foliage plenty of room.

Sunlight: Provide at least 6 hours of direct sunlight daily.

Soil: Grow in rich, fertile, well-draining soil with plenty of organic matter.

Watering: Keep soil consistently moist, especially while heads are forming. Avoid prolonged dry periods.

Feeding: Cauliflower is a heavy feeder and benefits from fertile soil and regular nutrition throughout the growing season.
