CAULIFLOWER 
CULTURE — For early cauliflower, start in cold frame. For fall cutting, Medium Calabrese 
Green Broccoli and all listed varieties of cauliflower except November-December, should be planted 
June lst to 20th and transplanted July 15th to August. 10th. For late cauliflower, the November-December 
variety should be planted the first week in May, transplanting July lst to 25th. For St. Valentine 
Broccoli, plant the first week in May, transplanting July 20th to August 10th. Cauliflower and Broccoli 
do best in a rich, loamy soil, not a cold, wet location. Plant 2% to 3 feet in rows and 3% feet between 
rows. Before the heads are large enough to be exposed to the light, tie or break the leaves carefully 
over the head to keep out the light. Great care should be used in growing plants of any of the early sorts 
that they receive no severe check in their growth, as this will cause them to produce premature heads.

GREEN BROCCOLI 
A valuable Italian vegetable forming 
heads of deep green, just about the same 
color as the foliage. After the main 
head is cut, smaller heads branch out 
below. It is very tender, nutritious and 
delicious, and can be raised like cabbage. 
Plant the seed June Ist to 20th and trans- 
plant July 15th to August 10th, in the 
same manner as other cauliflower or 
broccoli. It is very hardy and is not 
injured by light or white frost, so needs 
no protection. Do not attempt to grow 
this for summer use except near the coast. 
It can be planted from seed in rows 3 feet 
apart and thin to 15 inches in the row. 
In this case plant the seed about July Ist.
