I learned more in your 10 minute video than I have in a whole year of watching other gardening videos. Definitely a new subscriber!
me too .. i whole heartedly agree .. he taught me more as well .. and yes i am subscribing as well
Hey thank you both so much!
Tohumu bitkinin kendisinden mi aliyoruz
Isn’t Gods creation and design amazing?😊❤️
Thank you for proving the evidence of the regrowth. Is one thing to say it and another thing to show it.
Great video, thank you!
This is absolutely AMAZING! I had no idea that this "neverending" food was possible! Thank you so much for sharing!!!!!!
Had no idea it put out side shoots...thank you for this video!!!!
This is so helpful. I thank you❤
You are wonderful!
Well, hey thank you Elsa!
Excellent video! A lot of great info. Amazing about the side shoots. Thanks!
Glad it was helpful!
great vid!
I have been eating the broccoli leaves chopped up mixed with onions and liver cooked on top of bacon.
That sounds delish!
Oh this is really about Cabbage and Broccoli welp Sir
Thanks for the information!
Love to see howany seeds u got, that's awesome! Happy gardening!
good job AMANZIG learned a lot grateful from Brazil
I'm glad it was helpful..
Wow! I m gonna love This Guy!!!
Fantastic Information... Thank you so much for sharing. I am subscribing to your channel and I am very glad I found your channel this morning. I am planning on growing broccoli, cauliflower, and cabbage for the first time in my gardens this year. I haven't done it before because I have a smaller garden, but this year I am hoping to utilize the entire 3/4 of an acre behind my home and turn it into several small gardens rather than spending half my summer mowing grass. I really enjoyed this video. May God always Bless you with good health, safety, the love of family and friends, and prosperity in all you do God Bless ~SuzyJC-in-Pataskala-Ohio_02.08.2023~
That sounds like fun! Thats a lot of land, you should be able to get so much use out of it. I currently am only growing on the rear of the side of my house and the back of my driveway in containers. But I am looking to start growing in my back yard (which it 20x16ft), the full length of my side yard (27x5ft), my front yard (20x12ft) and I want to put up a 10x5ft greenhouse in the back of my driveway near my 8x4x4ft compost ben. The rest of the space around my house can't really be used, unless I build growing stations. Being in the city can be limiting, but Im going to me it work.
You're more than welcome Suzy, thank you
Thankyou so very much !!!!
Good info! Thank you sir.
When you said brassicas suckers, I subscribed. LOL! Nice harvest. Thanks for sharing.
Thank you!
I learned a lot from your video. Next year I will be more careful when harvesting and I will leave the plants in the garden to see if I get a second harvest off the plants.
Great Video thanks for the info.
I only buy the baby ones softer easier to chew
سپاسگزارم بابت ویدئوی بسیار زیبای شما. سبز و پایدار باشید 🎅
So happy to find your Florida gardening channel. I also love that the plants provide such abundant seeds for the next year's garden. I like to think that this is proof of how much we are loved and wanted.
Absolutely agreed. I believe everything we could ever need is here for us.
I have been on a mission to grow cabbage sprouts from 2 years. I have some good ones growing now. But I cut off my cabbage head too low and I didn’t leave any leaves, but sprouts are growing. I will try again in the fall. I’m in North Alabama, so it’s about to be too hot for them. And I just harvested some really nice broccoli heads Saturday. I knew about the side shoots but I didn’t know about the suckers growing on broccoli! I will be on the lookout for those! Thanks for all this helpful info! Happy gardening to ya!! I’ll be back to your channel for sure!
I've been searching for this, thank you
Thank you very much.
Happened to me last year! I wondered if you could let it stay and had like 4 little cabbage heads in each plant! Broccoli the same! But doesnt always work! They must get enough Light otherwise they will flower!
But its a perfect amount for a normal meal when you add a few other vegetables! You dont need the whole Broccoli or leave like the half for another day! With the small ones you get more vitamins because always fresh
Newish to winter gardening with only kale brassica experience--THIS is what I love to see, repeat harvesting.
Great basic info, thank you.
Glad it was helpful!
WOW! Great to know! I just found your video & am a new Sub now! Thanks!
Very informative 👍
That was totally new information for me. Will definitely follow these steps for the next Broccoli and cabbage harvests!! New sub!
Thanks for sharing! That was really helpful. Im in zone 7 and even though its still winter, it's getting super warm. I don't trust it, but I am about to start my garden back up before the month is out. Hopefully this year I can keep my garden going all year around.
Gonna try this! Thx!
nice harvest lee and also great info sir.
Thank you sir.. and thanks for the shout-out.
Really informative video! Thx for sharing. 😊
Thank you!
Great video! There is nothing like fresh broccoli! It is my favorite garden vegetable, but I haven't had the courage to try and grow it. You are an inspiration!
I'm glad you were inspired. ❤️
New subscriber here, such a nice show, very useful information here, I'm retired now and gardening is my favorite thing to do, please keep up the good work !!
Thank you!
Bush-to-mouth. Yeeaah!
Wow thanks.....that's a new one on me, always felt degected when after all that growing period l have to remove the plant in one harvest.
Great video. Thanks for sharing this info. I'm getting ready to plant seeds today and make a video soon. Also doing the single seed challenge 2023. Have a great day and happy gardening 🌿🌱🥬🍅🥔🥦🥦🥦
😊🤗
Interesting.. what's the single seed challenge?
@@oldfloridagardener take one seed out the package and plant it by itself and keep track of when it from start to finish. You can get more info here #singleseedchallenge2023 it's fun. Lots of gardeners have joined in and uploaded videos. Good luck and happy gardening 🌿🌱😊🤗
I like the stalks as much as anything else. They're worth peeling the skin off.
Thank you very informative. Esp i bever got far growing broccoli
This will surely help farmers to increase their income by preventing repeated process of growing from seeds for every crop . Continuous harvesting from the same plants reduce their labour and reduce their financial burden . Since new branches keeps on coming and new cabbage and broccoli keeps on growing from the same plants , they can have some real rest from their constant preparation of soil and sowing . Just nourishing the soil may give more produce .
I didn’t know this but have been eating off of three broccoli plants all winter. Rerouted a couple of branches, too. When I trimmed them back last week they just SHOT out more broccolini heads! Who knew? Asked the local garden expert if I could trim them back and keep harvesting and was told no.
so last year I cut the heads of a cabbage and 4 more heads grew! I was so shocked I never ever thought that would happen! So you never know!
You can pull your cabbage root, split it longwise into 4 quarters. plant those for a new head each. some will set morethan one head but you can cull them down to one good head apiece.
The side shoots of cabbage do taste better. I believe one of the reasons is because they tend to get hit by frost at that point of the plants life.
And yes. When you add all the little guys up. It's about the same volume of the initial first head.
Are you gardening in Florida and where in Florida I'm in 9B how often do you put up videos thank you so much I really learned a lot
I'm in 9B East Pasco county. I try to make a video every couple weeks
It's just a hobby, it's actually harder than I thought it would be LOL
Can you do the same with calauflower
That's a great question! You'd think it would be the same. The florets are just preflowers and the plant wants to reproduce before it dies and that's why it produces the extra florets so I imagine it is the same with all brassicas.
very healthy looking plants, do you not have any pest problems?
Before the first frost We have plenty of pests. Before the frost, I sprayed every 7 days religiously with organic pesticide and fungicide.
The side shoots are called "Broccolini", pronounced
Broc al eeny. It's harvested here and sold in supermarkets, in a smallish bunch, for a high price as a bit of a luxury. People don't realize they are the side shoots of the plant that is trying to go to seed because the main seed producing "head" has been removed.
Thanks for adding that information!
thx for the comment.
This is hilarious cuz it's also common in higher end restaurants. It's like the baby veg trend from years back
@@catherinesanchez1185 Hilarious 🙄
We’re in north GA, and I LOVE broccoli. This is so brilliant, but we get some decent freezes and also some weird warm days. Do you know - how cold hardy is this resprout broccoli plan?
That is a ton of seeds, wonder if used on buns to bake would they give it a good flavor and extra crunch.
Will be worth a try for sure.
It looks as if you are an organic gardener. How do you keep the bugs away from your cabbage in the warm climate? Me and my neighbor stay away from growing them because it seems like we are just growing for them 😂. (Atlanta)
It’s a pretty familiar reaction of plants, but cool
That means that if you snipped earlier you would get more at harvest time....
I planted 6 today. I'm going to try on one , as soon as the first head begins to make fruit , I'm gonna chop it off and see what happens
Good deal.. keep us posted
Don't chop it off as soon as it makes a head, wait until the head is fully formed, then harvest it.
This is interesting. I knew about the side shoots but not the suckeres. Kewl lol. Oh, I meant to ask what variety is the broccoli and cabbage?
The broccoli is Green Goliath
The cabbage is Wakefield and Savoy
Have you tried cropping the top of the main broccoli head before it develops in attempt to grow multiple big heads? Its a old trick and might work.
Haven't tried that trick
@@oldfloridagardener it works with marijuana plants and I think it will work with broccoli. It’s called topping.
I just found your channel! I live in south FL, and have never tried growing broccoli or cabbage, but now wish I'd planted some in the fall. Is it too late to try planting some now?
Thank you, glad it was helpful! I would wait for October to start brassicas in South Florida.
Good Morning, do you know how deep does Broccoli roots? I only have pots, but I'd like to give it a try this year.
I learn a lot from your video thanks but I also have questions how can you get cabbage seeds I never seen flower on it so
You just have to be patient, it will bolt & Bloom just like the rest.
Can you cut off and plant suckers to have many individual plants that will produce heads
That's a good question, I don't have the answer to that.. But I think maybe if you dipped it a little bit of rooting hormone it just might work. Please try and let me know what happens!
What time of year do you plant broccoli, cauliflower and cabbage? Mine got aphids on them. How do keep them off your plants?
Great video, thank-you! I was wondering if you fertilize your broccolli. I’m in central florida and I’m growing broccoli for the first time, and mine is not nearly as big as yours. I have used both organic and non organic fertilizer. Also, it’s taken them so long to grow and now the heads are finally growing but with this warm weather a lot of them are bolting. My heads are pretty tiny compared with yours. I’m having great success (so far at least), with broccoli rabe that I planted. It is growing much faster. I’m new to gardening in Florida.
Yes.. before planting the area gets a massive dose of organic fertilizer then every 2 weeks I fertilize and cultivate it into the soil around each plant.
@@oldfloridagardener thanks so much, would you mind letting me know what kind of fertilizer you use (the name)?
Down to Earth brand. The cost has skyrocketed this year. $60-$75 per 20.lb bag 😱
@@oldfloridagardener thanks so much!
I'm in North Florida. Do the re-sprouts grow at the same rate? I'm wondering because I didn't plant until Thanksgiving and need the garden to plant tomatoes and spring stuff in a few weeks. My last video on my chan will give you an idea where I'm at. I subbed BTW, Good job with the video!
They do grow at about the same rate taking in consideration of course more or less lumen hours. We're further along in the season now and the days are longer.. so they should develop a bit faster. Hope this answer helps.
@@oldfloridagardener Thanks for the response. I probably won't wait because I need to get the spring garden planted in 3 weeks.
Hello, any update on the re sprout head?
The stalk look so much like tree collards. Can you grow side shoots/suckers if you put them in soil?
Can broccoli be grown in pots ? If so, how many can be grown in a smallish greenhouse say, 10 feet by 10 feet. Or 10 meters by 10 meters? And can the growing time be reduced with the use of growlights at night?
Yes they can.
I would dedicate 3 sq feet to each plant
Yes, I'm sure grow lights would speed things up but I have no experience with that.
What section of Florida are you located in? Panhandle, Central or where? I am in the Panhandle.
East Pasco county
Side shoots , not suckers. Suckers come from root stocks.
I’m wondering which planting zone this farm is in ?
I am in zone 9B. East Pasco County, FL
Great to know about the cabbage plants. I did keep my broccoli plants in the ground and harvested the side shoots and tender leaves, but composted the spent cabbage plant. Would the same apply to cauliflowers? Thanks.
I had wondered the same thing.. out of the 18 cauliflower plants that I had in a row this year only one of them put out a sucker off of the main stock and created another head so I think the answer to that one is No.
@@oldfloridagardener Thanks for that. Cauliflowers are also great. Cauliflowers and broccoli are in very short supply here in NZ, so since we are coming up to our autumn months, I shall definitely start growing both from seed.
What do you have to put in the ground ,,lots of lime, fertilizer, manure , to grow nice broccoli,,I never tried to ,, okra like borax ,,but what does broccoli like ?
I've been doing organic only for a little while. Bone meal, blood meal, sulphate of potash. Micro nutrients, homemade compost and woodash. Lots of all of them cultivated into the soil.
@@oldfloridagardener thanks ,for the tip ,,I raise one acre every year last year I had eight tons of three year old cow manure put on it and everything I raised did good or great
@@oldfloridagardener phenomenal. 🥰
Would the coastal region around Port Elizabeth relate where you are Northern and this is Southern Hemisphere.
I'll be honest.. that info is outside of my knowledge. Sorry I can't be helpful there.
В каком месяце вы сеять семена брокколи?
Как вы удобряете брокколи?
Is it the same with cauliflower?
I had wondered the same thing.. Of the 18 cauliflower plants I had in a row this fall, only one of them put out a sucker off of the main stock and produced a small head. So I think the answer to that is no
I’m in Lake Worth Florida. Where are you?
East Pasco county. 9B
Bush to mouth...
😏
How come your broccoli is so small?
Did you not watch the video? 😂
It's for infants and toddlers
Please provide written script
Is your head actually made of cabbage? Or is it a giant red onion? Btw. Great video
My head is made of bones, hair , eyeballs, and wrinkles.😅 But the heads on the cabbage plants are 100% cabbage 🥬🙂
no such word a cabbages
That's good to know, but I'm giving myself a pass on that one 😊, will definitely say that again
@@oldfloridagardener sheeps too
looking at you, I can see you would benefit from eliminating all vegetables, and going carnivore
Great video! Thank you!
Great Video. Thank you!
We’re in north GA, and I LOVE broccoli. This is so brilliant, but we get some decent freezes and also some weird warm days. Do you know - how cold hardy is this resprout broccoli plan?
I imagine it would be just as coldhearted as the original plant.. If I recall correctly I think broccoli can take it all the way down to like 20 degrees Fahrenheit
