The same cultural methods that produce good cabbage 
will do likewise for Cauliflower. Being a heavy feeder

the heads should be protected from the sunlight by 
gathering the tops of the leaves together loosely in 
order to produce the pure white curd-like head. Seed 
sown in June, July and August and transplanted to 
the field will mature heads in Oct., Nov. and Dec.
