Cauliflower Vegetable Seed – 40 Seeds

Provide at least 1 inch of water a week, soaking the soil to a depth of 6 inches. Cauliflower requires constant moisture to produce large, tender heads; soil that dries out between waterings will cause heads to open up and become €œricey.€ Use a thick layer of compost or organic mulch to cut down on evaporation and weeds and to cool the soil. Be careful not to disturb cauliflower roots when weeding, because damaged roots produce uneven growth. Give young plants monthly light feedings with fish emulsion or compost tea. If you want to speed up growth, feed every 2 weeks. See the Compost entry for instructions for making compost tea
