Signs of Fall--Planting Broccoli

September 11, 2013

Broccoli blends from Renee’s Garden and Fedco and ‘Premium Crop,’ planted mid-August. These produced well for me last year.

Seed starting mix from Gardens Alive gets my seedlings off to a great start.

I’ve found milled sphagnum moss layered lightly on soil surface minimizes damping off of my seedlings. Seeds germinated four days after planting in a sunny kitchen window.

Tomorrow look for pictures of the seedlings transplanted over the weekend.
