In early spring I started seeds inside for cauliflower-purple and orange varieties. I planted them outside under row cover (it was cold back then) and they loved that cool spring. I kept them under that row cover when it warmed up to keep them cooler since it is a cool season crop. Then I took off the row cover and put 30% shade cloth over them.

This week I was rewarded with 7 beautiful huge cauliflowers with no bugs. The only downside is they all were ready to pick at once. But I’ll take that!
