Adding fertilizer to the soil before planting will give your plants the best start.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Add extra fertilizer boosts like pelleted chicken manure or blood and bone monthly to keep your seedling growing strong until they form heads.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Mulch the broccoli and cauliflower with compost<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Applying a nutrient rich mulch like compost around your broccoli and cauliflower will give them the extra nutrient boost they need to grow big heads. Put <a href=\"https:\/\/ecofamilylife.com\/garden\/mulch-before-or-after-planting-the-complete-guide\/\">mulch around your plant<\/a> as soon as you plant them out to prevent weeds.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Extra nutrients will be washed down from the compost to the plant roots when it rains or when you water. Add straw, sugar cane or hay mulch over the top of the compost layer to stop it drying out.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Water broccoli and cauliflower well<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>These plants love regular so make sure you keep the soil moist. Mulch will help the soil to stay moist for longer but you will need to check the soil and water by hand or irrigation regularly if the top soil is drying out.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Harvest your broccoli regularly<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>The best tip to keeping your spouting broccoli producing well is to harvest the stems regularly. These plants will produce a single head in the middle of the plant first. Once you harvest the central <a href=\"https:\/\/ecofamilylife.com\/garden\/why-purple-sprouting-broccoli-will-not-sprout\/\">broccoli head it will send out smaller sprouts<\/a> on the outside of the stem.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>These broccoli stems should be picked regularly to keep the plant sending out more shoots. If the stems are left to flower, the plant will slow down and stop growing stems.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Cauliflower will grow 1 single head so you will get one harvest from each cauliflower plant. Pick the heads when they still look tight and have reached around 8 inches across. Pick the heads before the head start to spread out. This is what the head will do just before it will flower.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"576\" src=\"https:\/\/ecofamilylife.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/2-broccoli-head-1-1024x576.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-3670\" srcset=\"https:\/\/ecofamilylife.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/2-broccoli-head-1-1024x576.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/ecofamilylife.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/2-broccoli-head-1-300x169.jpg 300w, https:\/\/ecofamilylife.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/2-broccoli-head-1-768x432.jpg 768w, https:\/\/ecofamilylife.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/2-broccoli-head-1-495x279.jpg 495w, https:\/\/ecofamilylife.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/2-broccoli-head-1-rotated.jpg 1200w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">How to fertilize broccoli and cauliflower \u2013 Summary<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The trick to growing broccoli and cauliflower successfully is to add fertilizer before planting and regularly while the plant is reaching its maximum size.
