1. Choose a Planting Location:
Cauliflower prefers full sun 🌞 but can tolerate some light shade in hot climates.
2. Prepare the Soil:
Cauliflower grows best in fertile, well-draining soil with a slightly acidic pH (6.0-7.0) 🌾. Amend the soil with compost to improve fertility.
3. Planting Instructions:
Sow seeds 1/4 inch deep, spacing them 18-24 inches apart 🌍. For rows, leave 36 inches between rows.
4. Watering Requirements:
Cauliflower needs consistent moisture 💧. Water regularly to keep the soil moist, especially during dry periods.
5. Germination Time:
Cauliflower seeds typically germinate in 7-14 days ⏳.
6. Ongoing Care:
Once the heads begin to form, blanch them by covering them with leaves to prevent sun damage 🌱. Harvest when the heads are firm and tight.
