Position

Plant in full sun and well-drained soil. Avoid planting cauliflower where brassica crops have been grown during the previous couple of seasons.

You can sow the seeds directly into the veggie patch, or preferably sow them in punnets before transplanting. Allow around 30–40cm between seedlings when transplanting.

Seed Sourcing: Locally sourced in small batches to maintain maximum viability for germination
