I made it to the garden after office work and before working more at home with just enough daylight to grab this guy. (And likely just a day or two before he bolted.)
We are loving our broccoli right now. Best season yet! Crowns, leaves, stems…there might not be anything left for compost. But I’ll try to let a couple of plants bolt so I can store the seed for the next season. Miss you, here. I hope you’re doing well. 🙂
Thanks! This was the only seedling the bugs or the weather didn’t kill. I think next year I need to transplant into a larger pot at least once more so the wee ones have a fighting chance. (This is why there will be zero cauliflower pictures this year…) Do keep trying! It is so rewarding when years of trying results in success!
It does in what Texas calls “winter”. I’m not sure it would where you are. I couldn’t get it to produce in spring or summer here so figured I’d give it a winter shot.

Doing fine, just not sure how it is I’m doing all that I am or how long I can last doing it! Miss you, too.
Beautiful Broccoli!
I have ZERO luck with cole crops…but will keep trying!

I didn’t realize broccoli produced in winter! Interesting.
That one is beautiful.
