Broccoli (Autumn) Covina Solid has domed heads with medium sized beads. Produces high quality harvests over a long season.

Excellent source of vitamin C and antioxidants.

Sow and Grow:

Outdoors: sow thinly, March-May, in a seed bed, 1.5 cm (1/2-inch) deep, directly into finely-prepared, well-cultivated, fertile soil, which has already been watered. Seedlings usually appear in 14-28 days. Water well until plants are established. Transplant 45 cm (18-inch) apart, when plants are about 10 cm (4-inch) tall. Allow 45 cm (18-inch) between rows. Plant firmly and water well.

Or sow indoors, March-May, 0.5 cm (1/4-inch) deep, in a tray of compost. Water well and place in a cold frame or unheated greenhouse. Keep moist. Transplant 5 cm (2-inch) apart to other trays, when large enough to handle.

Gradually accustom young plants to outside conditions (avoid frosts) before planting out, May-June, into well-cultivated, fertile soil.

Harvest: September-November.

Hints and Tips:

Once the main head of broccoli is cut, the plants will produce more side shoots for picking. 1g of broccoli provides the daily requirement of vitamin C.
