Sow Sunset cauliflower seeds and grow the plants closer together to produce miniature orange cauliflower heads with even more intense colour. This cauliflower keeps its colour when cooked, but it's also delicious raw and looks spectacular on a vegetable tray. Cauliflower is a good plant to start indoors so that you can place the seedlings in the row spaced exactly where you want them. Transplant into richly fertile soil and keep the bed evenly moist over the whole growing season. Lightweight row cover can be placed over the young transplants and left in place as the plants grow. It will protect them from the Cabbage Maggot fly and Small White butterfly (cabbage moth).

Matures in 70-75 days. (Hybrid seeds)

Timing
Start indoors four weeks before the last frost to late spring. Transplant in 5-6 weeks. Direct seed when temperatures are reliably above 10°C (50°F). Overwintering types are started in July where winters are mild, and transplanted by August 15th. Optimal soil temperature: 10-30°C (50-85°F). Seeds should germinate in 7-10 days.

Starting
Sow 3-4 seeds 5mm (¼”) deep in each spot you want a plant to grow. Thin to the strongest plant. Space transplants 45-60cm (18-24″) apart in rows 60-90cm (24-36″) apart.

Companion Planting
All Brassicas benefit from chamomile, dill, mint, rosemary, and sage. Avoid planting near eggplants, peppers, potatoes, or tomatoes.
