Growing Instructions Before Planting: Broccoli prefers a well-drained, fertile soil high in organic matter, and a pH of 6.0-7.5 with a consistent supply of moisture throughout the growing season. Broccoli does not generally do well in hot weather. The best success is with spring and fall crops. Planting: Sow 2 seeds per cell or 3-4 seeds / inch , in row flats. Seedlings should be ready to transplant in 3-4 weeks. Transplant outdoors 10-18" apart in rows. Broccoli prefers cooler growing temperatures, between 55-75 degrees F. Transplants can be set out from September to February in these regions. Sow 3-4 seeds 12" apart, 1/2" deep, rows 18-36" apart, thinning to one plant in each group. Watering: Water deeply and often. When watering , do not get water on the developing heads. Some varieties of broccoli are heat tolerant, but still require adequate watering, such as 1-1.5 inches of water per week. Days to Maturity: Broccoli is ready to harvest when florets are tightly closed in the center but begin to loosen slightly around the edges.(50-80 Days) Harvesting: Before flower buds open, cut the center head. Harvest secondary side shoots regularly to encourage continued production. If buds begin to show yellow color, harvest immediately. If anything, please let me know. Thank you
