Commonly Asked Questions
What is the best month to plant cauliflower?
For spring-planted cauliflower, it's best to plant in early to mid-April. For an autumn crop, start seeds indoors or direct seed in the garden in early to late July. Choosing a variety with heat tolerance and a short growth cycle is crucial.
How long does cauliflower take to grow?
Cauliflower typically takes between three to six months from sowing to maturity, with variations depending on the variety, size, and weather conditions. Harvest when the head is firm and compact.
How many cauliflower heads do you get from one plant?
Each cauliflower plant produces one head. Ensuring moist soil before planting and firming the soil around the plants can help prevent bolting or deformed heads.
How much space does cauliflower need to grow?
Plant cauliflower in rows with each plant spaced 18 inches apart and rows 30 inches apart. Mixing compost or organic matter into the soil and providing regular water will promote healthy growth.
Can cauliflower be grown in pots?
Absolutely! To grow cauliflower in a pot, use a deep container at least 30 cm in diameter with proper drainage. Nutrient-rich soil, such as AcquaGarden's Organic Vegetable Compost, is ideal for pot cultivation.
