Commonly Asked Questions
What is the best month to plant Brussels sprouts?
Sow seeds from early March to May into prepared ground under cloches or fleece if the weather is still cold. Traditionally, Brussels sprouts are sown in a separate seedbed and then transplanted in early summer once more space is available.
How long does it take for a Brussels sprout plant to produce Brussels sprouts?
From seedling to harvest, it generally takes between 90-120 days, depending on the variety. Brussels sprouts thrive in cold weather and often benefit from a frost or freeze right before harvest to enhance their sweetness.
Can Brussels sprouts be grown in pots?
Yes, terracotta pots and fabric grow bags are excellent container options for Brussels sprouts due to their porosity and drainage capabilities. Ensure your pots or bags have adequate drainage to prevent water logging.
Should I remove the leaves from my Brussels sprout plants?
Yes, remove two or three leaves each week to provide more room for the sprouts to develop. However, always leave several of the largest, healthiest leaves at the top to continue feeding the plant. Topping the plant when sprouts are present but immature is also practiced to encourage growth.
