Cauliflower is a vegetable that requires a fair amount of care in cultivation; the soil must be rich (without exceeding), thus in the crop rotation, this variety of Brassica oleracea should always be cultivated first. Cauliflower needs large spaces in-between the plants to allow the growth of the leaf mass, so plentiful irrigation must not be missing.
The early cauliflower types require a greenhouse seeding in March, late ones instead need to be seeded in open-air flowerbeds between April and May; the transplanting occurs after a month or 45 days (the suitable distance for cauliflower cultivation is approximately 50X50cm). NB: it is essential to remember that to obtain a pure white cauliflower it is necessary to tie the outer leaves on the flower or fold some of them on top.
