Broccoli: A medium size plant that is curd. Plant is an excellent yielder and is also a very early variety. Plant will re-spout very easily.
Broccoli, an easily-recognizeable vegetable, can be a successful crop in your garden with timely planting and good protection from pests. This cool-season crop grows best in spring or fall--avoid planting in mid-summer as hot weather can cause premature bolting in broccoli, but keep in mind it requires full sun to avoid slow maturity. Beware of pests and diseases popular with other vegetables in the cabbage family. Placing insect netting over your crops until they are ready for harvest should help keep pests at bay. This classic, nutrient-rich veggie can be enjoyed raw, steamed, roasted, fried, or in soups.
COMMON PESTS: Aphids, Flea Beetles, Cabbageworms, Whiteflies
SUSCEPTIBLE TO: Clubroot, Bolting, Nitrogen deficiency
