~ Seed for CAULIFLOWER ~

Bigger seed packets! We are being as generous as possible with packet sizes - we feel that commercial vegetable seed packets have become absurdly stingy in recent years.

different types for when you EAT them:

To eat them in SPRING : Use a 'spring heading' type. Sow early summer, plant out mid to late summer, and harvest the following spring.
To eat them in EARLY SUMMER : Sow in autumn or midwinter under cover, plant out very early in spring. We find this too much trouble!
To eat them in LATE SUMMER or AUTUMN: Sow in spring, plant out late spring to mid-summer.
