Growing Instructions

Starting your seeds

You can start broccoli seeds indoors using a heat mat to encourage germination. Once the seedlings sprout and grow a few sets of leaves, move them outdoors. Keep the soil moist and provide 4–6 hours of sunlight daily. When direct sowing broccoli seeds, plant them about 1/2 inch deep in well-drained soil. Space them 16 inches apart to allow for healthy growth and proper head formation.

Harvesting your seeds

To harvest broccolini, cut the main head at a slant, leaving about 6 inches of stem. This encourages the development of side shoots for additional harvests. Harvest when the buds are firm and tight, and the florets are green. Regularly check for readiness and harvest to promote continuous production.
