Growing Season in India: Cauliflower thrives in cooler climates, so it’s best to plant the seeds from winter through early spring, ensuring they mature before the summer heat sets in. Ideal months for sowing are from September to February.

Growing Cauliflower in Containers: Cauliflower can be grown directly in pots or grow bags, but starting seeds in a seedling tray and then transplanting them is also effective. Optimal germination occurs at temperatures between 15-25°C. Sow seeds about 0.5-1 cm deep, spaced 15-20 cm apart. Place the seedling tray in an area with indirect light and keep the soil moist. Transplant seedlings when they are 21 to 25 days old, ensuring the root system remains intact.

Fertilizer Recommendations: For robust growth, side-dress cauliflower with nitrogen fertilizer and use organic fertilizers like neem cake, cow manure, or vermin compost for 2-4 weeks.

Plant Care Tips:

• Soil: Maintain consistent moisture with well-drained, fertile soil rich in organic matter and a pH of 6.0 to 7.5.
• Sunlight: Requires at least 6 hours of full sunlight daily; can tolerate partial shade but may grow slower.
• Temperature: Ideal range is 15-30°C.
• Watering: Needs 2.5-5 cm of water per week.
• Pests: Watch for cabbageworm, cabbage root maggot, and aphids. Diseases like white spot, black rot, downy mildew, and clubroot can occur. Treat with organic pesticides like neem oil.

Harvesting Cauliflower: Expect to harvest 90 to 120 days after sowing. The cauliflower head should be compact, thick, and white, with a diameter of 15-20 cm. Use a large knife to cut the head from the plant.
