Nice! And your grandson is adorable.

That is some big broccoli! What is your compost recipe? Cutie pie boy! Did he grow in the garden too? What's your recipe for him and we'll all be growing one too!

Wow, Cat! Those heads look great! How long have they been growing in your garden? My plants look good, but they are a long way from producing...

Wail !

My broccoli didn't grow well this year! I think it's the soil in the new garden extension. Clipping the buds, more fertilizer with a hilling of the plants seems to have helped some of them.

You might try dragging some soil over the feet of your DGS, Cat'. It helps with holding them upright and controlled growth, out there in the garden.

We have had a long cool spring. They were put out in early May. The only thing not thriving is cukes-cool nights.
