Planting Instructions
Planting Season
- Early Spring or Late Summer: Ideal for planting in early spring after the last frost or late summer for a fall harvest. Flame Star can handle cooler temperatures and performs best when the weather is not too hot.
Planting Details
- Depth: Plant seeds 1/4 to 1/2 inch deep in fertile, well-draining soil.
- Spacing: Space plants 18-24 inches apart with 30-36 inches between rows for proper air circulation and easy harvesting.
- Light: Prefers full sun for optimal growth, though it can tolerate some partial shade.
- Soil: Flame Star thrives in loamy, well-draining soil with a slightly acidic to neutral pH of 6.0-7.0. Adding compost or organic matter to the soil will encourage better growth.
Watering and Care
- Water Needs: Keep the soil consistently moist, especially during head formation. Avoid overhead watering to prevent disease, and ensure the soil is well-drained to avoid root rot.
- Fertilizing: Use an organic, balanced fertilizer to support growth. Add compost or aged manure before planting and side-dress with additional nutrients during the growing season if necessary.
- Mulching: Apply organic mulch around the base of the plant to retain moisture, suppress weeds, and keep the soil cool.
- Thinning: Thin seedlings to 18-24 inches apart to allow ample room for growth and reduce the risk of disease.
Harvesting
- When to Harvest: Flame Star cauliflower is typically ready to harvest in 60-70 days. The heads should be firm, tightly packed, and a vibrant orange color.
- How to Harvest: Use a sharp knife to cut the head at the base, leaving some leaves intact to protect the remaining plant.
- Storage: Store cauliflower in the refrigerator for up to 1-2 weeks. To store for longer periods, blanch and freeze the heads for future use.
