Thank you floral_uk. I didn't have any pests on my last round of lettuce. They were perfect. I just read somewhere that you are supposed to put a cardboard collar on broccoli so some kind of worm doesn't get to it.

that is good to know about the sugar snap peas. I just planted a the whole back row in a 6 x 2 bed. I spaced them a few inches apart thinking id have to thin but just wanted to see what would come up. They all look good so far.

Thanks for your advice!! :-) sue

I don't know where you are, but here in 8a Georgia, my seedlings are futher along. I sow Broccoli seed s quite thick ( similar to your photo) let them get about about 6 weeks old, then transplant to thier permanent space. I use 18-

My earliest fall broccoli are starting heads now. Later sowing is about half grown now. Cauliflower plants are getting large now. I like the plants 24 inches apart.

Farmerdill you broccoli looks amazing! I'm in Cincinnati, Ohio- zone 6. I may have planted this at the wrong time...seems like everyone else's are much further along. At any rate, thanks for the advice! Appreciate it!

Also- my broccoli is Waltham 29 from bakers creek seeds

need thinned out. I put mine in 30" wide beds about 18" equidistant apart. cabbage same way. If I grew cauliflower I would also plant that way. I would also trellis those peas. You have more than enough broc plants to cover a huge area

Stirey, you need to become acquainted with your Ohio Extension office, if you haven't already. Local information is extremely important.
