Broccoli flowering

Question

My broccoli plants are flowering without ever producing heads. What can be do? I live in Grand Junction, CO and it is hot this year, over 90 most days.

Answer 1

The broccoli is bolting. Unfortunately, after they bolt, there is not much you can do but plant them again. To keep plants that are prone to bolting, they need to keep their soil cool. Mulch helps with this. This article will give you some tips for keeping them from bolting in the future:
