Cauliflower

CAULIFLOWER Brassica oleracea Botrytis group. Cauliflower comes in flavors of white, green, lime-green, orange, pink, and purple. They take from 4 to 5 months from seed. They need the same conditions as cabbage, but ample lime is more critical for cauliflower than it is for most other Brassicas.


While they do best maturing in cool weather, sowing or putting in transplants in spring for summer or autumn use is successful as long as the plants are well looked after. Varieties- 'Snowbaby' is a miniature cauli that can be crammed in at about 30cm apart instead of the more usual 45cm. Sow snowbaby from mid spring for a summer harvest. 'Chartreuse' is lime green, sow in early spring; violet Sicilian is purple but cooks green, sow in spring; 'Orange bouquet' stays goldy orange when cooked, sow in spring.

NEED ADVICE

I planted cauliflower mid-May in Wisconsin - have fantastic foliage, but no heads. What's up? Never noticed any bugs, but some of the leaves look like they've been visited by a bug as they have holes in them, not too many though and haven't received any new holes that I can tell.
NOTE: This is the first time I've tried planting cauliflower and not sure what to do.
