Growing Tips for Better Results

• Grow in well-drained soil rich in organic matter.
• Avoid ground where a brassica crop has grown within the past two years, to reduce soil-borne diseases.
• Use a balanced fertiliser during leafy growth, then increase potassium when heads begin to form.
• Water consistently to prevent heads from splitting.
• Begin harvesting when the head feels solid and firm when pressed.
