CAULIFLOWER-SIXTY 60 DAYS is an open pollinated variety very well suited to warmer areas, including the subtropics. It forms tight, solid, pure white heads that are crisp & tender. It has an excellent flavor and is good fresh or frozen. In temperate areas sow late December to May; in very cool, highland areas sow October to February; in inland areas sow February to September; in subtropical areas sow March to June; in tropical areas sow April to July. Transplant seedlings by first removing the seed leaves & planting deeper, up to the 1st set of true leaves. It requires a fertile, well-drained soil & is a heavy feeder, needing plenty of nitrogen and potassium. Harvest while heads are still tight and white.

More About Us
When I started this journey in 2009, I found nothing existed commercially, that was reasonably priced and easy to use. There was a homemade system which I also found was not that user-friendly.
Then a friend of mine told me about a homemade method she used. However, when I tried her method, I found this also didn’t suit my needs, as it too had flaws that I considered where important. It did not keep vermin out, did not have a lockable lid and (to me) looked unsightly in the garden
