Romanesco Broccoli Information

Propagating Romanesco Broccoli 

You can easily grow this plant with seeds.

  • Plant seeds 4-6 weeks before the last average frost date in your region
  • Sow seeds in a well-draining potting mix.
  • When the seedlings grow up to 10-12 cm, transplant them to the garden or continue to grow them in a container that’s at least 10-12 inches wide.
  • Put the pot in a location that enjoys bright but indirect sunlight in an area.
  • Keep the soil evenly moist and not soggy.

Note: If you are looking forward to having a fall or winter harvest, transplant the seedlings in the garden in summer. For regions with mild winter, you can plant it in the fall.

Requirements for Growing Romanesco Broccoli

Location / Light

For best growth and size, locate the plant where it gets at least 3-5 hours of bright and direct sunlight every day. Growing it in a shaded location will result in small broccoli.

If you live in a warm climate, protect it from the long exposure to harsh afternoon sun. This will help the plant avoid bolting.

Harvesting and Storing Romanesco Broccoli

Add compost to the soil before sowing to improve the drainage and nutrient content. Also, side-dress with aged manure during the time of planting.

Using a balanced liquid fertilizer, diluted to 1/2 of its strength, once in 2-3 weeks will be good enough as well.
