What is the ideal growing temperature for broccoli?....not looking for a typical growing season start time for my veggies in my heat zones....because well climate change is real and that stuff doesn't apply anymore.... I am looking for an actual temperature number....I know broccoli is hardy down to 35-40 degrees...I know that the Ideal soil temperature for broccoli is 60-70 degress....I know the high temp limit for broccoli is usually 85 degrees....I know the germination temp for broccoli is 65-75...I know the best temperature to harden broccoli is around 65 degrees.....But what I am looking for is the best scientific outside air temperature for growing broccoli.

Last night I had a dream where Jarrett was a guest on a radio show speaking about his activism for restoring freedom in America and ridding of government tyranny. I heard his voice on the radio in my dream and knew right away, "that's Jarrett from Stone Soup Farm!".

Good to know. I think I'll try growing my own and then use it for my pureed broccoli.

In some ways, it sucks to live in Florida >_<

When I was little, I used to mistake broccoli for tiny trees.

there are ypes of purple broccoli, many colors of cauliflower

He is surely ripped.

same clothes in every episode.

I looked this up so I can see how broccoli grows..

@bradkrit Keep it well fertilised around the roots and also add grass clippings. If you find the leaves regularly sagging right down on hot days, then it's basically game over for that plant.

@ehsanpartovi Allergies, my friend.

what if you want to plant it indoors???? would it still grow????

this guy always looks stoned.

My broccoli has MASSIVE leaves, and its getting really hot here (85-95) last few days. Still no actual floret showing, will I ever get any broccoli from it? Or just massive effing leaves?

@heirihunziker yes you can! just buy a pot and make sure it gets enough sun and water!

@bubber25 yes

i got wild rabbits in my yard. at least one i keep seeing. will it eat my broccoli?

What do you do to keep worms out of the head?

Wouldn't it be great to have a HOW TO video that shows you how and then at the end shows you the results. We really do not know if this way will bring a nice finished product. do we ?

BLAH I HATE Broccoli
