Broccoli (Catching up, still more)

I have never had any luck at all with broccoli, and even less with cauliflower. This spring, inspired (tricked?) by some transplants at Meyer Seed, I picked up a few cabbage and broccoli seedlings. A few months later - really quite a ridiculously long time - E came home with a few heads of broccoli. Somehow we had not yet gotten around to ripping them out (imagine that), and they took off. It seems the trick with broccoli is to be patient not rip it out the second it gets warm. I'm guessing if we got the transplants in a few weeks earlier they would have been glorious. Next year...


Reminders:

• Plant things when they are supposed to be planted.
• Wait and see what happens, if there's room to spare.
