#nedfirsts 'Purple Moon' #cauliflower. Growing cauliflower has been a hit or miss for me; mostly a miss when we are talking about traditional non-sprouting cauliflower. I am trying to figure out a path to more consistent harvests by trying different varieties, seed vendors, and culture. This decent #purplemooncauliflower harvest lets me know that this variety is suitable for my climate. The vendor is @johnnys_seeds; there wasn't a question about seed quality. That leaves the last variable to work out-- culture/me. Compared with broccoli (something that we can grow year round) cauliflower is more finicky. The seedling is very sensitive to environmental changes. I'll have to pay more attention to the cauliflower seedlings. I am hoping to figure this part out. All the while I will continue sowing to figure out how much of the year we can expect traditional cauliflower from our garden. This #purplecauliflower is indeed very visually appealing. Turning it over reveals a beautiful contrast between green and purple.
