How to Plant Broccoli from Seed

When to Plant Seeds

  • Spring Planting: Start seeds indoors 6-8 weeks before the last frost.
  • Fall Planting: Start seeds indoors in mid-to-late summer for a fall harvest.

Preparing for Planting

  1. Choose a sunny location with well-drained, fertile soil.
  2. Loosen soil to at least 12 inches deep.
  3. Amend soil with compost and organic matter for nutrient enrichment.

Sowing Seeds

Indoors: Fill seed trays with moist potting mix. Plant seeds ¼ to ½ inch deep. Keep trays at 65-75°F (18-24°C) for optimal germination. Water lightly to maintain even moisture. Seedlings will germinate within 5-10 days. Once seedlings have two sets of leaves, transplant them into larger containers.

Outdoors: Harden off seedlings by gradually exposing them to outdoor conditions over a week. Space plants 12-24 inches apart, with 24-36 inches between rows. Plant in the ground at the same depth as they were in containers. Water immediately after transplanting.

Direct Sowing in the Garden

  1. Plant seeds ½ inch deep in rows spaced 24-36 inches apart.
  2. Thin seedlings to 12-18 inches apart when they reach 3 inches tall.
  3. Keep soil evenly moist during germination.

Pro Tip

To grow tight, healthy broccoli heads, plant in rich, well-drained soil with full sun and keep the soil evenly moist (about 1–1.5 inches of water per week). Feed with a nitrogen-rich fertilizer after transplanting to encourage strong leaf growth.

Bonus: Harvest the main head before the buds start to flower, and keep the plant in the ground—many varieties will produce smaller side shoots for extended harvests!

Getting to know your Broccoli

Broccoli is a nutrient-rich cool-season vegetable belonging to the Brassicaceae family. It produces large, green flowering heads made up of tightly packed buds that are harvested before they bloom. The plant prefers full sun, well-drained, fertile soil, and consistent moisture. Broccoli thrives in temperatures between 55-75°F, making it ideal for spring and fall planting. It has thick, fibrous stems and dark green, lobed leaves, which are also edible. Once the main head is harvested, smaller side shoots develop, extending the harvest period. Rich in vitamins C, K, and fiber, broccoli is a staple in various cuisines and can be eaten raw, steamed, or roasted. It requires regular fertilization, particularly with nitrogen, and benefits from companion planting with onions, carrots, and herbs like dill to deter pests.

What it's used for

1. Culinary Uses:

  • Enjoyed raw, steamed, roasted, stir-fried, or blended into soups.
  • Can be pickled, juiced, or incorporated into casseroles and salads.

2. Nutritional Benefits:

  • High in vitamin C, vitamin K, fiber, and antioxidants.
  • Supports immune health, digestion, and bone strength.

3. Companion Planting & Pest Control:

  • Helps repel certain pests when grown near onions, garlic, or marigolds.
  • Beneficial to pollinators when left to flower.

4. Soil Improvement:

  • When composted, broccoli plants return nutrients to the soil.
Growth Requirements

Light:

  • Requires full sun (at least 6 hours of direct sunlight per day).

Soil:

  • Prefers rich, well-draining soil with a pH of 6.0-7.0.
  • Adding organic compost or aged manure improves fertility.

Watering:

  • Needs consistent moisture, about 1-1.5 inches per week.
  • Avoid overhead watering to prevent fungal diseases.

Temperature & Climate:

  • Ideal growing temperatures range from 55-75°F (13-24°C).
  • Frost-tolerant, but extreme heat can cause premature bolting.

Fertilization:

  • Apply a balanced fertilizer (10-10-10) during early growth.
  • Side-dress with nitrogen-rich compost once heads begin to form.
Maintenance

Watering:

  • Water regularly to keep soil evenly moist but not soggy.
  • Mulch around plants to retain moisture and regulate soil temperature.

Fertilization:

  • Apply a high-nitrogen fertilizer every 3-4 weeks for vigorous growth.

Weeding & Mulching:

  • Keep weeds under control to reduce competition.
  • Mulch with straw or grass clippings to maintain soil health.

Harvesting & Seed Collection

  1. When to Harvest:
    Harvest when broccoli heads reach 6-8 inches in diameter.
    Cut heads before buds open into yellow flowers.
    Use a sharp knife, cutting at an angle to encourage side shoots.
  2. Saving Seeds:
    Allow plants to bolt and flower.
    Collect dried seed pods and store seeds in a cool, dry place.
Pests and Diseases
  • Common Pests: Aphids, cabbage worms, and flea beetles.
    Use row covers or organic sprays to protect plants.
  • Common Diseases: Clubroot, black rot, and powdery mildew.
    Ensure crop rotation and well-drained soil to prevent issues.
