Wow! I didn't realize the growing season was so long for cauliflower! Love your technique, thanks

Hello! This is early variety, there are late varieties which take a month longer to grow and form a head. Thank You very much 😊🍀

Hi - which country are you in (in UK here) and what did you add those cardboard collars around the plants' bases for please - was it to keep moisture in the soil or to prevent bugs? Advice help welcome 🙂@@Liap

@@purityandplants The "pink skin white inside" are Murasaki. The best of these three varieties I've grown so far. I am already having them on soil and some are already growing first shoots. I do have a content for video of growing these in open garden, but it is going to take me quite some time to get to editing it. Murasaki are more resistant to weather changes and drought. I am sure You will have success with them 🍠🍀
