Growing Information:
Broccoli
CULTURE: Broccoli is closely related to cabbage, cauliflower, and Brussels sprouts and, like these other members of the Brassica genus, requires a fertile soil with good moisture-holding capacity or irrigation. While more heat-tolerant varieties such as Windsor are being developed, broccoli does not generally do well in hot weather, the best success being with spring and fall crops.

HARVEST: Before flower buds open, cut center head. Hydrocool or ice as soon as possible. Harvest secondary side shoots regularly to encourage continued production. Irrigate regularly. STORAGE: Store at 32°F (0°C) 10-14 days. DAYS TO MATURITY: From date of transplanting; add about 20 days if direct seeding. AVG.
