| How to Sow: |
Sow indoors thinly into modules. Germination takes 7-14 days at 15-18°C. When seedlings reach 8cm they are ready to plant out. Water the day before moving and keep watered until established.
Sow outdoors thinly in a seedbed 1cm deep in rows 10cm apart. They can also be sown under cover in pots, 2 seeds to a pot, then remove the weaker one. In mid-summer transplant to final growing position, and place 60cm apart.
Outdoor transplanting should be 25mm deep in a drill with 60cm spacing. Direct sow 12mm deep in rows 15cm apart. Keep watered. Once germinated thin to 60cm. You could sow a catch crop underneath like lettuce until the plants reach full size.

| Care: |
Keep watered in dry periods. Add lots of organic matter as a top-dressing as they are hungry plants and this also helps to retain moisture. The broccoli will reach 1m and will require staking, so it is best to support it with a short cane. Pigeons love the young shoots so cover with netting or tin foil on canes.

| Harvest: | November to May, they are a cut & come again veg that needs regular picking to prevent it going to seed. |
