Zone 5 Happy Dance for Broccoli

16 years ago

I've been practicing my happy dance and got to do it today! Broccoli and a few cauliflower are up!!! Hurray! Now it seems real- can't wait until I see flowers. My DH devised a great EARLY broccoli system- he cuts the bottom off a milk jug, leaving a hinge. Plant the little broccoli and cover with the jug. Place a rock on the opened, hinged bottom. This makes a perfect little greenhouse for each plant. We even leave the lid by each jug in case it gets really cold at night. We can plant broccolis May 1st here with the jugs.
