Planting and Growing Instructions

• Days to Maturity: 85 days for full-sized heads.

• Days to Germination: 7–14 days, depending on soil temperature.

• Planting Depth: Sow seeds 1/4 to 1/2 inch deep.

• Plant Spacing: Space plants 18–24 inches apart in rows 24–36 inches apart for proper airflow and growth.

• Start Indoors or Direct Sow: For best results, start seeds indoors 6–8 weeks before the last expected frost. Transplant outdoors when seedlings have at least 2–3 sets of true leaves. Direct sowing is also an option in cool climates for a fall harvest.

• Sunlight Requirements: Full sun is ideal, but this variety can tolerate partial shade in warmer climates.

How to Grow Waltham 29 Broccoli

1. Starting Indoors: Begin seeds in trays or pots filled with a light, well-draining seed-starting mix. Maintain a consistent temperature of 65–75°F for optimal germination. Harden off seedlings by gradually exposing them to outdoor conditions before transplanting.

2. Soil Preparation: Broccoli thrives in rich, fertile soil with a pH between 6.0–7.0. Amend the planting area with compost or well-rotted manure for nutrient support.

3. Watering: Keep soil evenly moist but not waterlogged, as broccoli prefers consistent moisture for best head development.

4. Care and Maintenance: Mulch around the plants to retain soil moisture and reduce weeds. Fertilize with a balanced fertilizer every few weeks for robust growth. Monitor for pests such as cabbage worms and aphids, and use natural methods for control if needed.
