I'm about to plant Brussels sprouts. Has anyone planted it? How is it growing in the Moscow region? And a question about cauliflower. Share good varieties.

Growing Brussels sprouts is not difficult; they themselves do not require careful care, but among the early varieties we can recommend Franklin F1. This variety ripens and is ready for consumption after 130 days.

I haven’t grown Brussels sprouts, so I don’t know how they grow here. But the colored one grows well with proper care, I always buy the “Snowball” variety, I get quite large, strong white heads of cabbage, which store well in addition.

I want to plant cabbage for the first time, please tell me what this means -
“In the second half of the month, we open up the cabbage seedlings and fertilize them.”
Source: otherwise, for a beginner, these professional words are just an empty phrase, but you need to figure it out before you start practicing.

Well, in principle, you were offered an early variety of cabbage, but I always grow a medium and late variety. These include Diablo, which requires 160 days, and Boxer, which requires 170 days to mature.

I plant Brussels sprouts first. In April, seeds are placed in cups at home. I grow it for a month, and in mid-June I plant it in the ground, which I recently did. It is better to take early varieties.

Cauliflower is one of my favorite foods. I'm experimenting with varieties. I liked the early ones - "Express" and "Snow Globe" from the later "Regent".

I didn’t understand something, do you want to grow Brussels sprouts or cauliflower? You will somehow decide on this issue so as not to mislead people. I don’t know much about the varieties, but what they gave in the store is what I plant and usually do according to the instructions that are written on the pack.

I would advise growing any cabbage in accordance with the recommendations on the package, since sowing time and care largely depend on the variety. And compliance with the requirements is always directly proportional to the yield.

Brussels sprouts are the best among all types of cabbage in terms of biological value. It is very decorative and can decorate your garden. It is grown like regular cabbage, but you need to keep in mind that it does not like high temperatures.

This year we also planted Brussels sprouts for the first time. As for cauliflower, it turns yellow and becomes a bit ugly if it overgrows. I wonder if Brussels sprouts can overgrow too?

It is growing normally. Only seedlings should be planted later than other seedlings. Otherwise the frosts will play a cruel joke. Plus – once a month it is worth feeding with mineral fertilizers. The harvest is average, since the fruits are not very large.

I grew all types of cabbage. I grew Brussels sprouts, cauliflower and cabbage sprouts. I think it all depends on the soil. Well, you need to look after it accordingly. It was especially difficult for me with Brussels sprouts.

You definitely need good seedlings or high-quality seeds, in case you grow seedlings yourself. I planted the seeds directly in the ground, they grew well, but then they were some kind of giants, a straight long stem and on the cabbage stem it was like a cat crying.

I am a fan of digging into the soil, and I have grown cabbage more than once; I always use some secrets for this matter. I always reap a good harvest!
