Broccoli is a cool-season crop that, like spinach, can be grown in the spring or fall. With broccoli, you may even be able to get a continual harvest throughout the summer and fall if you practice succession gardening and your summers don't get excessively hot. A member of the cabbage family, broccoli is rich in vitamins.

Instruction how to grow broccoli:

Broccoli can germinate in soil with temperatures as low as 40ºF.

Broccoli requires full sun and moist, fertile soil that's slightly acidic. Work in 2 to 4 inches of rich compost or a thin layer of manure before planting.

For spring plantings, seed or set transplants 2 to 3 weeks before last spring frost date. If you transplant, assume 10 less days for growth or the "days to maturity" on the seed packet.

For fall plantings, seed 85 to 100 days before your average first fall frost. If you live in a warm climate, a fall planting is best, as broccoli thrives in cool weather. Plant seeds in mid- to late-summer in most places.

Plant seeds ½ inch deep, or set transplants slightly deeper than they were grown originally.

Within a row, space your plants 12 to 24 inches apart with 36 inches between each row.

Space plants 12 to 24 inches apart, depending on the side heads you want to harvest.

If you overseed, you will need to thin seedlings to 12 inches apart to give room for the broccoli to grow.

Fertilize three weeks after transplanting.

Provide consistent soil moisture with regular watering, especially in drought conditions.

Suffocate weeds with mulch.

Harvest broccoli when the buds of the head are firm and tight before the heads flower.
